[Latex allergy question]

Oh awesome, thank you for those links!

[Latex allergy question]

ooo, thank you for that tip! I will check it out!

Silicone should be just fine! I will definitely look into that as an option.

 

Maybe I can convince my husband that shaving my head would make life easier.

Whoops, sorry about that. I am planning on doing the AOTC Concept version.

 

The latex issue is a bummer indeed.

[Latex allergy question]

Hi everyone! I've been scouring the posted topics for information, and you have all provided tons! Thank you!

 

I am going to start a concept Ventress build that I hope to have done for Celebration. My problem is - I have a latex allergy, and sensitivities to certain adhesives. I mean, if I use the wrong type of bandage, it will leave me with an itchy, red mark for a week. So obviously, this translates into me having certain concerns for a bald cap.

 

Clearly, a plastic cap would be the best option, but I'm having a lot of trouble finding information on the adhesives and blending products that can be used for someone with a latex/adhesive sensitivity. Liquid latex seems to be one of the most commonly used blending agents, and that just isn't going to work for me. 

 

My backup plan is to make a cloak and put combs into the hood so that it doesn't fall and expose my hair.

 

Is there anyone else here that has a latex issue, and how have you gotten around it?

Hi everyone! I am hoping to join the Wisconsin Garrison. My eventual goal is to do Assajj Ventress, but until I figure out how to get around my latex sensitivity, that's on the back burner. My first planned costume is Visas Marr.
