Thread: PVC Dummy Head

Tweet

I am about to finish up my pvc dummy for my electric chair prop but was wondering how i should do the head. Where do i find the dummy heads made out of styrofoam? Would Micheals carry these all year round?

I plan on covering the head with a black cloth to add to the effect but i have heard some people using a milk carton but i am just not sure where to go about this or where to find the head.

Hobby Lobby and Sally's Beauty supply carries them. To bulk it out you can use batting and duct tape:

Thank you terra

you should've seen the look on my mom's face when I said I wanted to go to Sally's Beauty supply.

LOL! I'll bet...

Not sure what size pipe you made your PVC frame out of but the wig heads require 1/2" pvc (about 4 inches long) for a neck and it will give you a nice snug fit. Might save you an extra trip to Home Depot.
