They can be taken individually or in succession. The workshops will meet the needs of professionals in cosmetology, acting, costuming, cosplay, drag performance as well as private individuals.

About the instructor: Molly Oliver McGrath
I have enjoyed maintaining and styling the wigs of some of the best wigmakers in New York, Chicago, Seattle, and Canada for the past two decades. I deeply respect the art that goes into every custom-made wig and therefore handle each wig with the highest standards in the entertainment industry. For nine years, I was the Hair Supervisor for the Broadway National Touring company of WICKED, the musical (Munchkinland Co.) I am currently the owner of The Wig Station and continue to work in town as a part-time Hair Stylist and Makeup Artist in the TV and Film industry. I am a proud member of IATSE Locals: Local 488 (PMW), Local 798 (New York) and Local 476 (Chicago).
