Wig Help! [Choosing Help.]

Post by Harakiri » Mon Jan 07, 2008 5:39 pm

Alright. I am going as two people to this Convention I am going to (Naka-Kon 08 ), and one of them is my own RP Character who is a Turklet....
Thing is, her hair is exactly like Hayley Williams from Paramore.
And I can't find a wig like her hair.
Thus, I'm settling on ordering one because getting one custom made is too much money.

Choices Are:

Wig One

Wig Two

Wig Three

Suggest away!
if I can get a Reno that'll take responsibility for it, I'm going to use the wig WHILE I am Cloud Bashing Tifa and be all like " THIS *points to hair* is what I get for letting RENO DO MY HAIR"

No. I just use her picture as a reference for the character.

I like the other selections in Wig One but i have like Wig Two and Wig three the most. Wig Two would be an excellent Alba Meira cosplay wig.

Wig Three is the most closest to someone i used to remember.

If the actual Wig 3 is closest to Hayley Williams then I would say why not? It would also look perfect for you! ^ ^

I'm agreeing with the wig 3 comments, but wig 1 could be cut and dyed to be pretty awesome too.

Personally, I believe wig two would be the best choice for Hayley's hair. The only reason I say that is because the blonde is already in there whereas the other two, you would need to add it in.

The style of three is almost dead on to Hayley's but there's no blonde and the other one is the same way. If you get wig two and just custom color the rest with sharpie and also give it a trim, you'll have a perfect wig.
