Local Source for foam heads? (Raleigh, Durham: home, shopping center, discount)

Trying to find a local source for foam mannequin heads, like you'd see displaying wigs, etc.

Tried some beauty supply shops with no luck.

A & B probably has some... you could call and ask before going. Their website is A & B Store Fixtures of Raleigh - Home Page.

That looks like a such a cool store. I'd have no reason to go there, but I think I'd want to go just to look around.

BigK-had you considered one of the recycled goods places in the area? The name escapes me, but in Durham there is a big one where teachers and others can go to acquire cast-offs, and I am certain that any of the larger Triangle towns will have something similar.
You also might try an artist supply place.

I get them at the K Discount Beauty Supply Store, next to the El Rodeo in The Village/Pleasant Valley. It's on Glenwood Avenue, outside the Beltline. If you ask at the counter, they will get foam heads for you. I think they are about $3 apiece..

Do not get this confused with the Sally Beauty Supply in the shopping center next door to this one. Sally's does not have foam heads.

Durham Scrap Exchange maybe? Is this what you mean busydesk?

Sorry, I have nothing to add. I just read the title and saw "foam heads" and thought referred to local craft beer drinkers and aficionados. LOL. Not that kind of foam!

Yeah I was going to say Scrap Exchange too - maybe call them first.

Thanks, that's the kind of lead I was hoping for. Tried Sally before with no luck.

Is "K Discount" still open? No one answers the phone at the number listed for this business. I guess I'll have to drive over and check in person?
