Wig links?
« on: September 05, 2007, 12:31:46 am »
So, in my post-con state, I'm naturally dreaming of next year...and so far the costumes I want to do will require good wigs.  I though it would be cool to see what sites/stores other people use for all their wig needs!

I got the wig for my Anthy costume at Cosworx.  In more real-life shopping, I usually go to Sparticus in downtown Portland or Bageckstage in Eugene.

Anyone have some other useful sources?  I'm specifically looking for long, curly wigs.

I recommend www.amphigory.com
and this e-bay seller:
http://stores.ebay.com/COSPLAY-WIG_W0QQcolZ4QQdirZ1QQfsubZQ2d33QQftidZ2QQtZkm

both have good quality wigs and great reputations.

If I could semi-hijack this thread.. how about places to get pre-made costumes? All the costumes I want on eBay seem to come out of China.. and they're $100 with shipping.. which I guess isn't bad, but it's literally like $50 for the item and $50 for shipping. And um, since it's a dress >_> i'd need to get my measurements.. and I HAVE ON IDEA HOW TO DO THAT!

I guess I could ask my mom. "Mom, um, so like, I'm thinking of ordering this dress.. of this anime character I like.. and um, for an unrelated reason, I also need you to help take my body measurements."

Hmm, I don't know about websites, but I know a few online friends who do commisions for not too much, if you're interested.  I've seen their work in person, and it's pretty high quality.

shadow-lady-chun-li

I know pandari isn't accepting commisions at the moment, because she's getting married at the end of the month, but after that I think she'll be back in the groove.  Booth have pretty fast turnover.

She just recently got a DA account, so she doesn't have much up yet.  I'll see if I have her cosplaylab account or something...
