Hi, we're back here at Expert Village with the last portion of our Latin bombshell. I've been showing you how to put together a one woman show. My name if Kat Litrenta and I'm a professional entertainer. This particular character is called Lola. Well, Lola needs dark hair. So what we need to do is take top of some pantyhose and cut them off and put all of your hair up into this stocking cap, because I happen to be light. Light hair, light skin. So we put on the dark makeup and we're going to add the dark wig. Pull out my ears, there you go. And the wig, which is right here, shake it out real good, make it look crazy and wild and that goes on top here. Tame it down just a little bit. And we need to pin it on. Now, use your pin sometimes to perk up some of the hair. And then, make sure that you put it down tight, right by your temples. 'Cause that happens to be one of the places that a wig might come loose. And another, use dark pins, no blonde pins, all dark. And you see how this comes together? How nice is that? And you know, for just a little extra, so that everything matches, you take your mascara and you take your eyebrows and you put them dark, like that. See that? Look at that. Now, I've got dark hair and dark eyebrows. Oh, now, I look Latin. No?
