I've been reading the instructions to create the Spiderman bust and it says it should be the faceless wig head. There's a store very close to work that sells wig heads but they are not faceless. They only sell them for less than $4!! Can I use this instead? The faceless heads will be too much to order online plus I need to pay for shipping as well. Can anyone help? Thanks!

You can use any wig head..It will be covered with icing anyway!!!

If you find the "face" is sticking out a little to much, why not sand the face smooth???? it is just syrafoam anyways..right??? I myself want to try that spiderman and was thinking of smoothing it out a tad so I make sure there are no extra "bumps" in the icing...

Hey fooby, I used the head with a face and it came out fine. Actually having the nose and eyes helped with the features of spidey and the correct placement.

Good luck!
