thats too bad. Maybe Marie can help you out

or Anna

xkuroxhanax · « **Reply #401 on:** January 04, 2009, 05:19:33 pm »

xD oh, i know how to fix it. its just that at this point, it's looking like i might need to wash it out and completely restyle. except i really don't want to.

PaperRoxas · « **Reply #402 on:** January 04, 2009, 06:12:59 pm »

oh that sounds like a pain

xkuroxhanax · « **Reply #403 on:** January 04, 2009, 06:15:20 pm »

xD yeah. i dont think it would even work, with the amount of hairspray in that wig, anyway

PaperRoxas · « **Reply #404 on:** January 04, 2009, 06:16:32 pm »

yea...that sucks.

my wig is a little droopey cause it was in the rain D:

xkuroxhanax · « **Reply #405 on:** January 04, 2009, 06:17:14 pm »

mine held up in the rain pretty much fine, actually. its just from general use.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #406 on:** January 04, 2009, 07:19:03 pm »

My wig really has no styling to it so the rain shouldn't hurt it too much

xkuroxhanax · « **Reply #407 on:** January 04, 2009, 07:19:38 pm »

xD good times. that would be lovely. my next wig wont need much

nikkiolie · « **Reply #408 on:** January 04, 2009, 08:20:10 pm »

doesn't that make things so much easier?

xkuroxhanax · « **Reply #409 on:** January 04, 2009, 08:20:53 pm »

xD god, yes. it makes things like. agh. i can't even begin to describe how happy i am that i won't need to do anything crazy to this one.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #410 on:** January 04, 2009, 08:22:48 pm »

I'm not even sure how to really add spikes to wigs. Albel needs a few but I don't even know where to begin =/

xkuroxhanax · « **Reply #411 on:** January 04, 2009, 08:25:15 pm »

err. i would suggest taking the chunk of hair that you need spiked, getting it into the right shape, and then holding it in place while you spray it with a TON of hairspray. and maybe put a bit of the spiking glue right on the tip just to keep it together.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #412 on:** January 04, 2009, 08:47:12 pm »

I guess I can try that. I'll have to wait till I get back home though. I might even wait till right before the con

xkuroxhanax · « **Reply #413 on:** January 04, 2009, 08:47:48 pm »

xD ah. yeah. its really not that hard. it just seems a little intimibating at first.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #414 on:** January 04, 2009, 08:49:16 pm »

It doesn't seem like it would be too hard. I guess I am just afraid of ruining the wig

nikkiolie · « **Reply #415 on:** January 04, 2009, 08:51:06 pm »

Why is this site being so damn slow and screwing up my posts >_<

xkuroxhanax · « **Reply #416 on:** January 04, 2009, 08:53:04 pm »

DD: well, worst comes to worst, the spike doesnt look right and you rinse out the wig. the hairspray comes out pretty easily.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #417 on:** January 04, 2009, 08:54:32 pm »

Yeah that is the worst that can happen right?

My Yuna wig and Kaien wig shouldn't be too much problem lol. Though I still have to buy those XD

nikkiolie · « **Reply #419 on:** January 04, 2009, 08:56:13 pm »

Well that is good to hear. From what I've seen styling wigs seems to take much longer than actually making some costumes (not all XD)

PaperRoxas · « **Reply #420 on:** January 04, 2009, 08:57:17 pm »

kaiens cosplay is easy XD

roxas is the only spikey wig i have

nikkiolie · « **Reply #421 on:** January 04, 2009, 08:58:34 pm »

well thats good to hear, but it looks like your Roxas wig is already styled

xkuroxhanax · « **Reply #422 on:** January 04, 2009, 09:00:49 pm »

yeah. it was a commission from emily. styling my wig took like. 15 hours total.

PaperRoxas · « **Reply #423 on:** January 04, 2009, 09:02:23 pm »

yes thanks to a friend lol

that long missy! wow!

off topic but i noticed in reCOM axel's hair sticks almost straight out in the back lol

I try to avoid cosplays with wigs that are really detailed like that. Or I would get someone else to style it for me

PaperRoxas · « **Reply #425 on:** January 04, 2009, 09:04:28 pm »

yea...that's why emily styled my roxas wig lol

xkuroxhanax · « **Reply #426 on:** January 04, 2009, 09:04:47 pm »

@roxas: axel's hair does kind of stick straight out. but on realy people, it looks a lot better if it doesn't.

@nikki: yeah. i did axel and decided that i dont want to do another heavily styled cosplay for a good long while.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #427 on:** January 04, 2009, 09:07:53 pm »

I don't really want to make any more costumes for a while because Albel is taking so damn long >_<

xkuroxhanax · « **Reply #428 on:** January 04, 2009, 09:08:31 pm »

xD yeah. i'm doing two complicated costumes in a row, so i think i'll be taking a break from them for awhile after this one.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #429 on:** January 04, 2009, 09:09:16 pm »

I might be going to Sakuracon as Misa but that would be an easier costume. I may even end up buying it ^_^;

xkuroxhanax · « **Reply #430 on:** January 04, 2009, 09:10:46 pm »

xD i think misa is one of those costumes that's totally fine to buy. some of them are just like. make them or else, but misa is cool

nikkiolie · « **Reply #431 on:** January 04, 2009, 09:12:25 pm »

I saw a dress on some site that would be perfect. Now I just need the money. I'll get my hair dyed again before sakuracon and we should be good ^_^

xkuroxhanax · « **Reply #432 on:** January 04, 2009, 09:12:55 pm »

good plan. how much did the dress cost? Dx

I don't even remember. I don't think I looked

I think it would be under $100 including shipping

xkuroxhanax · « **Reply #436 on:** January 04, 2009, 09:29:50 pm »

well, that's good. not too bad at all

Sayda · « **Reply #437 on:** January 04, 2009, 09:34:45 pm »

I want to see the dress!

nikkiolie · « **Reply #438 on:** January 04, 2009, 10:14:00 pm »

The one I was originally looking at ended but it would look similar to this one http://cgi.ebay.com/Death-Note-Cosplay-Uniform-New-Costume_W0QQitemZ110308208465QQcmdZViewItemQQptZWomen_s_Clothing?_trksid=p3286.m20.l1116

Sayda · « **Reply #439 on:** January 04, 2009, 10:25:04 pm »

Ohh that looks cute. Haaah. I can't picture you wearing something like that. XD

nikkiolie · « **Reply #440 on:** January 04, 2009, 10:33:04 pm »

I think it would be fun. I enjoy wearing dresses, but I like a little tighter ones not ones that are poofy

I'm not sure if I should buy a wig for her or use my own hair. My hair isn't quite the right length but its close, same with the color and I would have t get my bangs cut >_> But if I got a wig I would have to style it and pay money for it v.v

Sayda · « **Reply #441 on:** January 04, 2009, 10:55:20 pm »

I think you should just use your own hair. The color looks fine to me, and the length you shouldn't worry too much about. People will know who you are regardless. As long as you wear a punkish dress, have blonde hair in pigtails, and are hanging out with an L and a Light. XD

nikkiolie · « **Reply #442 on:** January 05, 2009, 08:21:44 am »

Yeah I figured as much. I will also need to get a deathnote >_>

but I got time

NightLotus · « **Reply #443 on:** January 05, 2009, 11:11:39 am »

I don't know if i'll have time to get a cosplay done by then ><

nikkiolie · « **Reply #444 on:** January 05, 2009, 11:33:52 am »

you can always wear one you already have

NightLotus · « **Reply #445 on:** January 05, 2009, 01:44:56 pm »

wear THE one I already have! (lol)

Sayda · « **Reply #446 on:** January 05, 2009, 03:24:34 pm »

I have a Death Note. It's not mine, but I borrowed it from someone at Kumoricon (Can't remember who) and I never found them in time to give it back. It's the one Misa has.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #447 on:** January 05, 2009, 04:50:17 pm »

Ooooooh I may have to use it then

nekovamp13 · « **Reply #448 on:** January 05, 2009, 11:28:10 pm »

Ah, I'd love to go. Though I don't if I'd be able to...
Where exactly would we all meet? What store or whatever?

If I can go, I hope I can finish my cosplay by then...(and I don't have any others >_<)

nikkiolie · « **Reply #449 on:** January 06, 2009, 07:23:23 am »

My bad >_< wrong topic
