So..my Tsubaki wig..the most horrible cosplay nightmare I've ever had..
It used to look so pretty with it's beautiful high pony tail, there were a few faults, but it was good. I had to start messing with it (gently brushing etc.) after it started to because a bit tangled (keep in mind, this wig was giant, the pony tail went to below my knees). it took a really long time to brush because it's fibers pulled and stretched easily. Then a more serious thing started to happen, hair near the pony tail start started to bunch up, I had no idea what to do. My friend had the brilliant idea to take it down from the pony tail. I put this idea off for a long time because it would be really hard to put back up. But finally, I gave in and took it down. IT WAS A FREAKING MESS..the wig was not designed to be down from the pony tail, weird tufts everywhere, giant balls of tangles. So I started cutting, and cutting...until it was to my shoulders when before it went to below my knees. Now it's a giant mess with different sized tuffs.
What I learned is that I'll never cosplay a character with a pony tail or long hair.
