A couple weeks. It's about the same length of time for National Guard duty.

It's nothing but a money bin for me. I grind there all the time.
And I went to kill a fly, missed slightly, and smushed its guts all over my hand. Eew.

The fan option would be much lighter and doorways would push it over. However, in places with low ceilings, the hair would only inflate up to the ceiling. It'd also be liable to get caught in doors. This would be an outside-only cosplay for the most part.
Another problem would be keeping it secure. With either option, a good wind would knock the hair right off. A chin strap would be a good addition, as it would help with stability. Having elastic around the bottom to better hug your head will also be beneficial to keeping it inflated, as there would be less leaking.
For the inflated option, you'd need a place for air intake. Having the fan on the back would allow air intake. The base of the hair would need to be a solid structure, with the rest being nylon.
A powerful computer fan could keep the hair inflated. It requires a battery pack, so that would either need to be kept in the shirt or in the base of the hair.
...why am I putting so much thought into this? I already have a cosplay in mind and it's Professor X.

Needs taller garbage bag hair. 
Now that I'm working out the size of the hair in my head and how I would go about building it, I wonder how much it would weigh. If I were to build it, and assuming that Gon stands at 6', then the hair would be 18' tall. Including Gon's body, him plus the hair would stand at a whopping 24' tall!
To make 18' of hair with my usual materials, I'd have to build an armature, and that itself would easily weigh fifteen-twenty pounds, depending on materials. For it to be sturdy, I'd build a central tower out of PVC pipe, and build the framework around it with other materials. Then, the outer covering would require at least five-ten rolls of duct tape.
Wearing that would require your neck to support nearly thirty pounds (if not more) of headdress.
Another option would be to get a small air pump or a fan and make the hair out of a nylon material and just have a fan constantly blowing air into it to keep it inflated.

HOLY FREAKIN CRAP DAT HAIR
I want that figure. If I put it on my pie safe, the hair might actually touch the ductwork on the ceiling. If not, it will come really freakin' close to it! That is some amazing hair.
His left knee, on the other hand... it's looking a bit... inverted. At first, I thought perhaps they were going to discuss anatomical fail, but aside from that knee, I couldn't see anything really worth mentioning.
Then I saw the hair.
Holy crap.
QuickEdit: Upon closer inspection, he has something of both a swayback and a hunchback, and his right knee is equally messed up. Not quite as inverted as his left, but the knee is crap.
That hair, though, distracted me.

Took a shower, had a rant, back to worrying about Mammaw until I decide to go to sleep, where most of that will be spent worrying.
Or, I could play Pokemon some more. Take my mind off things. Raise my Xatu. Work on my various breeding programs.

I have real life to attend to, and it doesn't provide much conversation. And the only thing worthy of discussion can't be discussed here due to our policies. Let's just say that a certain someone on TFN made an ass of himself (again) and offended more than a few people. The Mod Squad is discussing him.
Yes, I am talking about That Friend.

Yeah, I'm getting bored with it, too. The sig's staying until I feel like changing it, whenever that will be. I have sigs disabled.
I'm worried as hell for Mammaw because surgery at her age is risky and she has a pacemaker. I hope it all goes well for her. I don't want to get the dreaded call and then have to pass on the news.
With how my family is in pieces right now, if something were to happen to Mammaw... things will get very ugly. VERY ugly.

I saw Mammaw today. She was tired and no doubt full of pain meds. Her cardiac tests were good, so surgery is on for tomorrow afternoon.
