In this excerpt from our Hand Puppet Detail and Finishing Techniques, Part 2: Eyes, Ears, Noses, & Facial Hair, world-renowned puppeteer and puppet builder BJ Guyer teaches how to straighten and also get different textures from faux fur after it’s been washed. Straightening puppet fur is helpful when it appears crimped, creased, or clumped — ultimately, it's not how you’d prefer it to look. Depending on your application, the techniques discussed can revive fur that is not ideal, ultimately giving it the look of realistic fur.

BJ Guyer explains how to:
Brush Out Puppet Fur
Apply Controlled Heat to Faux Fur
Use a Heat Gun on Fur
Trim Fake Fur to Add More Texture
Test Different Creative Techniques on Puppet Fur
