Needle-felting human hair - a time-lapse video

A little insight into felting human hair (with wool not real hair!) on a needle-felted portrait. A time-lapse video, the full duration of creating this portrait was around 3 days. Feel free to drop any comments or questions below!

@@stardustgirl2904 heheh I would've said 'with' human hair and I think needlefelters will understand. I quite like that it's surprising !

@@SarahVaciArtist 👍🌻🌷🌻Like I said it's your channel! I'm reminded of a woman who would make purses out of cat hair, it was pretty gorse to me! And this spiked my memory of that!🤮

Even if Sarah was working 'with' human hair, what's so weird about that? Apart from the obvious use of making wigs, human hair has a long history of use in many crafts including jewellery and still is for contemporary items, for clothing and braids and a modern take is in conjunction with resins to create items which look as if they are made from tropical woods or tortoiseshell. I just don't think it will felt as easily as wool, if at all, which is why most people who are interested in watching videos about felting will understand the importance of not saying 'with'.
