There are different types of bald caps and they are:

• Plastic bald caps
• Latex bald caps
• Watermelon bald caps
• Pre-impression bald caps
• Woochie bald caps

Directions:

1. Clean the model's face using the cleanser with cotton pads and then apply toner. Remember don't apply moisturizer!
2. Apply the hard hold fixing gel onto the pale and run through the hair with your fingers. Brush the hair with the paddle brush or a comb to brush the hair away from the face. Remember it needs to be sleek and tidy. 
   
3. At the back of the hair, separate into two sections (left and right). Then, wrap the left section of the hair over to the right section around the head and if it doesn't stay still, apply more gel onto the hair. Do the same and wrap the right second section of the hair over the left second around the head. 
4. Do not cut the bald cap before apply it onto the head. Apply the bald cap onto the head. The back of the bald cap is longer than the front. Ask your model to hold the hair for you when applying it. 
5. Once the bald cap has applied, use a pin tail comb to tuck the hair in the bald cap.
6. Cut the excess of the bald cap with a pair of scissor. For the area around the ear, cut a triangle shape and remember don't cut too close to the hairline.
   
   
7. Fold the edges of the bald cap and apply spirit gum. 
   
8. Once, it gets tacky, stick the edges of the bald cap onto the skin. Pull the bald cap when you stick it onto the skin as you want it to look as smooth as it could be. When you get to the back of the bald cap, ask your model to look down and so the skin will stretch forward and it will make the bald cap lies on the skin as flat as it can. 
9. Get an old puff or towel and add a bit of water. Once it's wet, press it onto the edges of the bald cap to make the edges of the bald cap look more natural on the skin.
10. Ask the model to close her/ his eyes. Use the acetone and a baby bud to melt the edges of the bald cap and it will help to make the edges look smooth and non visible.
11. Use the colour red and white on the supracolor palette and mix to create a reddish pink colour. Then, use a stipple sponge and stipple the colour on top of the bald cap and this helps to cover the colour of the bald cap and also the hair. 
    
12. Use the foundation that matches the model's skin tone and stipple the colour on top of the reddish pink colour which was applied on the previous step. 
    
    
13. After that, powder the bald cap.

Fullersearth
1. Get some fullersearth into a bowl and mix it with water.

2. Then, stir well and the fullersearth will then turn into paste form to create muddy effects.

You can use a hairdryer ( in cool setting) to make the drying process faster. 

With color hairspray

Kryolan colour spray: (D23 Gold) colour

Shake well the colour spray before using it. Then, spray it onto the area you want to apply the colour on. 

 With a comb, you can create patterns on the fullersearth and on the photo on above, you can see some line patterns created with the comb.
