//Tutorial #9// Furring the Fursuit Head Base - part 1

[@nerdyintrovert821]

No amount of negative comments about the furry fandom can ever stop me from feeling amazed and proud of the amazing work everyone does in it. I just wanted to share how happy I am to have helpful people like you in the fandom, and I hope you continue to do good work!

[@SN4PDRAG0N]

I feel as though people misunderstand furries.. It's a lot of fun, and it's healthy to do what makes you happy. 🤍

[@wheatsock]

Same!!!

[@danderlionrexs3312]

I wannabe make a head but I'm scared of this part of the furring is anyone else feeling the same way

[@MugiwaraCosplay]

It's also the most difficult part (for me it is)

[@z0mb13mu77]

I'm just gonna dive straight in once I finish making my head base

[@AdelaTomankova]

Yeah, like Starpelt said, just dive into it.

@@BlueError404 well, just so you know you need to wait till you are at least 13-15 years old because that's when you almost completly stop growing. If you're young (like 10 or so) when you make a fursuit head, then you'll outgrow it within a year or so.

[@sovietdoggo5394]

I am afraid that when you cut it off it ?might rip the foam base is that possible to happen

[@MugiwaraCosplay]

It has never happened to me

[@KoltiraMemeweaver]

I've cut into the foam when using exacto to cut off the pattern. It doesn't really affect anything if you do, I mean unless you're leaving big ass gouges or something.

[@0neweirdmutt]

If you tape onto suranrap like she did then you should be fine.

[@hightoparts4960]

Pix The Cat place plastic wrap under the tape, only tape half, basically copy the video. Make sure to cut 2 and to cut slowly in small chunks, if you want longer fur.

[@sirfart5184]

I use duck tape to secure the head so I can wash it, I use masking tape for the pattern. It's just my way (;

[@eeddiitt444]

Thx for this, I needed it for my foam base 🤗 Oh wow u actually read that, thx.

[@darkriver3950]

How’d you get the fur to stick on? Hot glue?

[@MugiwaraCosplay]

Hot glue, it tells it in part 2. Part 1 is only about cutting the fur and sew it

[@mildlyburnttoast669]

Hi, I know this was like a year ago but I’m wondering when your furring round parts of the head you add the triangle cut things, correct? If so does it matter where you put the cuts or..?

[@Sovereignt7]

Late response to your comment but the person does not cut triangles out, they simply cut lines in the pattern so it lays flat. When taking the tape off it's often still the same shape as the head but the patterns need to be flat so that's why they do that.

[@Lesleylooz]

[@totoro001]

I like how you sew the whole head worth of fur together, then pull it over the foam instead of sewing small parts, then gluing them separately (so there are a number of different pieces of fur attached to your foam head). The one question I have is, can you not whip stitch on your sewing machine (I believe that's the stitch you're using)?

[@MugiwaraCosplay]

No, and I don't recommend machine sewing the face, I hand sew so that the seams are not that visible
