Well, I'm no expert hairstylist... but I don't think the hair should be to much trouble. Just fluff out the wig, take some of the hair, and tie it in a ponytail. Don't worry if it isn't perfect -- a lot of anime hairstyles are impossible in the real world. Just use a special hairspray for wigs and y...
