Quick question to you guys.... does anyone know what Zoots hair is made of?

I know the top bit is ostrich feathers... but then it progressively gets curly towards the bottom and also has a two tone blueish yarn look.... any clue?

EXHIBIT A

EXHIBIT B
http://www.bing.com/images/search?q...20292C33F1792E429E637A03F5D7&selectedIndex=65

In some of the newer versions of the puppet it appears to be ALL ostrich feathers... but there is no longer the "curl" at the bottom...

just curious... thanks guys!

Hmm... That is quite the observation! I'm thinking that his hair is just Ostrich Feathers, and the curls are just natural. Sorry I am not much of a help! :cool:
Can't wait to see how he turns out in the end!

Both your links are just going to a general picture search of Zoot.I have had a look at them, and I think they just got lucky with the curls from the feathers.
