About that Gail Storm face... (y'know, brown, curly hair, sweet expression)

I really like that face. I have a character that fits the face really well.
After thinking out a bit more of my story (for .castle, developing slowly) I
realized that I'd want the same character wearing a different outfit and
different headwear. Well, I tried out different types but none of the brown
hairpieces fit the face at all! I tried a wolfpack cowl but it looks extremely
silly.

Being very influenced from the 'dark side' lately (ie I tend to think a lot
about customization :) I had an urge to use the second Gail face I have and
take off the curls. That way I could put a brown hairpiece on her at times,
and use the other, complete face when she's wearing a hat.
I was about to start and take off the hair with an Xacto knife, but then
chickened out...

Any thoughts about this? Has anyone done this, or something similar?

(...) Removing side-hair from printed faces would be my first act with an Xacto knife, if I was ever to take up such a heinious life-style. I *hate* when LEGO prints hair on minifig heads, because it *never* looks good with wigs. Steve (25 years ago, 8-Mar-00, to lugnet.build.minifigs)
