quote from HMA:
Tommy Lee Wallace (The set designer) for Halloween [You mentioned the costume designer -- that was Nancy Loomis -- she did not have anything to do with the mask] made the first spraying it white, and spraying the hair black.
Yak hair doesn\'t absorb color as well as other fibers so the color would run off with just a little movement. Yak fibers are very fine, thin, and sometimes almost greasy. Black particles form the paint in the hair fell and some of it stuck to the mask to give it some of it\'s more noticeable dirty features. The dirty blonde hair did take on a brown tint from the spray paint. Regular wear on the mask gave it some of the details that are now actually applied to the Myers masks by airbrush or other paint techniques.
Nearly 100% of the mask\'s features; the cheek lines, lips, eyes, forehead, and eyes were shaded/detailed by the lighting, and type of light, used for each set. The mask featured no detailing applied in paint form. You have to remember this was the first outing with the mask. No matter what they did, or didn\'t do, theres no getting it "wrong" the first time around.

It\'s like arguing over coverall colors. Some people know the truth, and some people just want to argue based on what they see, not what they\'ve studied.
