Wig Design

BOSTON

“All the good music has been written by people with wigs and stuff”

— Frank Zappa

To truly transport an audience member back in time, or to demonstrate a state of mind, a perfect wig will do the job. Wigs and hair are an intricate detail that if done right, one might even overlook in the excitement of the production experience.

This is truly the essence of wig making. To transport the viewer to a place where they are engrossed in the believable performance in front of them.

Memorable Moments.

Below are some of my favorites from my career in wig design.
