Hi all!

I'm looking for a really good latex bald cap, I have long hair and want to pull a prank on friends by pretending i shaved my head.

Which has the best quality? I don't know how to use liquid latex so i can't make my own, I found ones for low prices but reviews say they break easily and looking for recommendations, any help is appreciated.

Thanks!

Probably the best one available at any decent costume shop would be Woochie. They're around 10$ US. They have really thin edges and a extra long back flap to hide long hair. There may be better ones from professional outlets, but these have always worked fine for me.

Do the woochie bald caps work for really large heads? I have an enormous noggin (size 8 hat).

I'd consider using Watermelon bald caps.
There's a bit more of an art to using them but not much and the results are excellent.
Here's a link to a supplier with details of application.

I would assume they'd stretch that big. I wear 7 3/8 hat.

after trying many baldcaps when i did Asajj Ventress i decided i prefered Glatzan caps( plastic) over latex. Also use prosaide over spirit gum to stick the cap...much better adhesive and better finish.
google glatzan and you find some good brands - kryolan do good ones.
