This head was on sale with INTENSE wig stains. How can a wig even stain so much??? The default faceup was beautifully intact tho.





The sealant (painted in 2005) had yellowed a lot and I was super surprised to see how pale the resin was underneath.
Still super stained, though.





At first I tried to hide it





Not very successfully, I might say. (what on earth are those lips)






I'd never been so brave but I bought a nail file with 4 different grits and SANDED the wig stains off.
Yes I wore PPE.
Yes I did wet sanding
Yes, the resin STANK when it was sanded?





I had to do a bit of colour correcting with blushing because the sanded area was a tad lighter





















Yes, that's a pimple (yes I removed it after)











I wanted to sell the fixed head at first but ended up keeping it in the end; I love Acorn's face a lot! More about them here.
