Most parts of the removable fur cover for my fursuit head are now sewed together. Sew-on snaps are used to hold it in place. I used this method for several fursuit heads - it does take more time to build it this way, but it makes cleaning the fursuit head so much easier. It's also possible to build several covers (with different patterns) to use one mesh head for more when one fursuit.
You can see how I made the head in my livejournal:

I did not insert servo motors in this fursuit head. The ears and eyelids are controlled with 4 Bowden cables - no electronic components needed. It works like an old camera remote control shutter cable. The cables are over one meter long - I can grab them inside a fursuit glove.
