Many thanks guys. Wow, that's a pretty overwhelming endorsement for the short cut. I suppose I shouldn't be too surprised as I bought that wig specifically to match her looks. You can't argue with public opinion, except that, silly old sod that I am, I've really rather fallen in love with her as a redhead in the last two days while she has been wearing the red wigs - as she still is. I know, I know, ask for advice then ignore it . There's only one thing for it - back to eBay to find another short boy cut wig, this time in red.

revoL's right about the rather startled look in the blond photos. In fact, I think she looks a bit startled in all the pics, but the blond locks exacerbate the effect. All the pics were taken very late in the evening in a not terribly well lit room. I didn't have my tripod to hand and pushing the ISO too far would have made the images too grainy, so flash was essential. It was in a pretty confined space and quite close up so, even though I used a soft diffuser on the pop-up flash, the effect was quite hard, the reflection in her eyes causing the overly surprised look which she doesn't have in real life.

Good to hear from you and Kirsty Cummagen. Signe says hi. In fact she's upstairs now waiting patiently (as if!) for me to finish doing this as we're about to start a new photoshoot.


Ok, duty calls. Many thanks for all your contributions guys.
