   // or
   const { BigHead } = require("extended-bigheads");

then, in your app:

import { BigHead } from "extended-bigheads";
// or const { BigHead } = require("extended-bigheads");

const Example = () => (
  <BigHead
    showBackground={true}
    backgroundColor="blue"
    backgroundShape="square"
    accessory="shades"
    body="chest"
    clothing="tankTop"
    clothingColor="red"
    eyebrows="angry"
    eyes="wink"
    facialHair="mediumBeard"
    facialHairColor="blonde"
    graphic="vue"
    hair="short"
    hairColor="black"
    hat="none"
