    Horsehair Wookie Braids Run 2 *Full* Progress & Updates

    *Please note I am not taking any additional braid requests at this time.*

    *Added: 05/21/2008:
    Hi Everyone,

    I really hate to do this in the middle of the run, unfortunately the place that I get the horsehair from has gone up in prices. Even with their price hike, they are still the cheapest place I've been able to find for the hair. Both the ESB set & the ROTJ are going up $5.00 each. If anyone wants to drop off the list, I will completely understand.

    The biggest price increase is going to be for those of you who just want to order the hair only. ESB hair only will now be $31 +$5 shipping. ROTJ Hair only (not including the black & white braid) will be $43 + $5 shipping. *


    Movie accurate sets:

    3 braid ESB set (1 black looped, 1 flaxen blond unlooped, & 1 silver/gray braid unlooped) with red & black sinew $50.00

    7 braid ROTJ extended set AKA the MOM set (1 small black, 1 black & white, 1 light blond (flaxen) & 1 brown braid Plus the following that are attached to the black & white braid: 1 gray partial braid, 1 black “tail” & 1 brown “tail” with 2 – 4 turn Turk head knots & 1 – 2 turn Turk head knot. The extended set is approximately 10 hours of labor. $75.00

    Also, if you would just like to purchase the horsehair only and make them yourself I'd be willing to do that as well.

    $31 + $5 shipping for enough horsehair for the 3 or 4 braid versions

    $43 + $5 shipping for enough horsehair for the 7 braid extended set version.*Does not include bleached black & white braid.*

    All prices include shipping throughout the US. International buyers, please contact me for a shipping quote. I ship Monday through Friday USPS.

    Seeker said to send his set to my address since my Boba is far better than anything he could make.

    I have the same doubt... I thought there was just 1 style accurate to ESB, but woooh, 4 options :|...

    I would also love to hear the differences, and what is the most accurate

    Once again, thanks Julie.

    Yes if there is anyway of getting on the list for any cancellations, count me in as well. Hopefully Julie will be able to some more runs later. (and just in case, I'd need ESB braids).

    There's already a long waiting list for the next run chaps which is probably why she's stated she doesn't want more requests.

    I uploaded the ESB reference pics that I have to the new gallery.

    Wookie Braid Gallery

    I believe seven from my last run had the most movie accurate version of the ESB braids. Here is the link:

    Pics #127 through 136.

    For those inquiring on cancellations and waiting lists......there are 20 people in line already on the waiting list (aka the 3rd run). If anyone falls off (cancels) on this run I will be moving people up from the waiting list to this one.

    Here's the link to the last run:

    Wookie Braid Gallery 1st Run

    It has pics of all the sets and some pics of the horsehair. If you would like any specific pics of the horsehair just let me know and I'll post them.

    No, just ordering the hair does not consist as part of the run.

    Hi Julie, looks like you're pretty busy, lol. If at all possible please put me down on the wait list for an accurate ROTJ version looped. I see the wait is long but no hurry on this end, Fett costume is in begining stages for Halloween '08. Storm trooping this year. So no big rush here just don't want to miss out on one before you completely end the run. Also, thanks much for offering the run they look great.

    Re: Horsehair Wookie Braids Run 2 *Full* Progress & Updates

    Hey there Julie, I am on the list for a ROTJ set. I am looking for as close to the MOM version as possible. I am pretty sure that is:

    7 braid extended set (1 small black, 1 black & white, 1 light blond (flaxen) & 1 brown braid Plus the following that are attached to the black & white braid: 1 black partial braid, 1 gray partial braid & 1 brown braid with 2 – 4 turn Turk head knots & 1 – 2 turn Turk head knot). The extended set is approximately 10 hours of labor. $70.00

    If so, that is fine and could you update me on the list. I just want as close to the MOM set as possible. Thanks.

    Re: Horsehair Wookie Braids Run 2 *Full* Progress & Updates

    Hey Julie... some stupid questions here...

    1.- I think you should explain which options are the "correct" and "accurate" to the movie... (I'm a little lost with those terms..)

    2.- About the price... for example.. this option:

    Basic 3 braid ESB set (1 black, 1 yellow blond & 1 silver/gray braid) looped $35 with 3 turkhead knots $45

    How much would be... (excuse my ignorance, but to be 100% sure)

    - $35 for the braid + $45 for the knots ? = $80? or
    - $45 for braids with knots option ???

    3.- finally, when will you need the payment ???

    You have a pm with my location to get the final price with int. shippings

    Thanks again !

    Ben

    Re: Horsehair Wookie Braids Run 2 *Full* Progress & Updates

    Hi Ben,

    1. From the reference pics I have either of the two following sets I would consider movie accurate:

    Basic 3 braid ESB set (1 black, 1 yellow blond & 1 silver/gray braid) unlooped with 3 turkhead knots $40

    or

    Basic 3 braid ESB set (1 black, 1 yellow blond & 1 silver/gray braid) looped $35 with 3 turkhead knots $45

    I don't have any reference pics from the back or from any angles so I can't really say if the braids or looped or not. In some pics they look looped in others they do not. (So if anyone has reference pics of the sides or back please send them to me.)

    2. Total without the knots $35.00 with the knots would only be an additional $10.00 for a total of $45.00

    3. I generally don't ask for payment until I am done with your braids. International shipping to Australia & the UK has been running around $20.00 for those of you in those locations.


    Let me know if you have any more questions.

    2.- About the price... for example.. this option:

    Basic 3 braid ESB set (1 black, 1 yellow blond & 1 silver/gray braid) looped $35 with 3 turkhead knots $45

    How much would be... (excuse my ignorance, but to be 100% sure)

    - $35 for the braid + $45 for the knots ? = $80? or
    - $45 for braids with knots option ???

    3.- finally, when will you need the payment ???

    You have a pm with my location to get the final price with int. shippings

    Thanks again !

    Ben

    Julie,

    I just took a look at this thread and the photo gallery and I want to say WOW you do beautiful work. I think that you are the first to offer the Turks head knot version, very impressive stuff!

    Keep up the great work.

    I know the gray is shorter than on the Boba Pic.

    Here's the deal with the gray:

    1st I have to dye the light flaxen blond gray.

    2nd it's difficult to get it that "granny gray" color without the blond showing through and making it look all splotchy.

    3rd, I can get longer blond to dye, however it costs more than twice as much for about 1/3 of the amount.

    4th for those wanting the longer blond which is 27 inches long add $30.00 to the cost of the braids. (The blond in the reference pic above is 21 to 22inches long)

    Hi, Julie
    I haven't checked the lists but I would still like a set for my son. I realise it could be a long wait but i am patient and very impressed with your work so don't forget me. I'll keep looking in to see how things are going.

    Understandable. Which is why I am gonna braid it myself

    In the meantime I think I'm gonna buy some braids from Michaels to hold me over until I can upgrade to some of the hair she uses
