  15. Knowing the short comings is half the battle
  16. Can be common, possibly being over bleached and old, get a new patch
  17. As far as trapping hair there is a simple solution, after tying in clump, cut a square of plastic bag and cut a slice in it, that allows you to pass it through the thread followed by wrapping it around bundle. I then use a bag clamp to hold back hair then work forward, give it a try.
  18. I tie my the way Chris Helms showed me, (for the mouse ), tie in back section up to where the ears go. Then I trim that section, add the ears followed by one clump ( top and bottom). Then trim that, add whiskers followed by final clump. Then I carefully trim around the whiskers and steam for final trim
  19. Simply pull em up or down and get in with the ✂️
