What's your price range? eBay is my first resource for wigs (remember, you want Japanese kanekalon fiber-made ones!) and you can get good quality ones between $25-30 including shipping~

Try typing in "Long Red Cosplay Wig" into eBay, that'd be your best bet.

You might want to hurry though, because standard shipping from Hong Kong (which is where most cosplay wigs are sold from) take at least 2-3 weeks to arrive, sometimes more, and it's really close to con-time! >3<

You can just edit your first post (click the (https://www.kumoricon.org/forums/Themes/default/images/buttons/modify.gif) Modify button, top right corner of your post), no need to post again about it :3

(Sorry for the doublepost! >.<)

Now that I'm off from work, I can give you a direct link to a wig I would suggest for Grell :3

I would suggest this one for our lovely Mr. Suttcliffe; it reaches to the middle of your back. The bangs are long enough in the front for you to style into his image, too. It's just not 100% true to the character because his hair actually reaches his knees, but 31.5 inches is long enough xD $18.75 total.

I hope you'll share some pictures of your Grell cosplay when you're finished, he's on my cosplay to-do list as well! >3<

cosworx is where i get most of my wigs

theres also a place in portland/clackamas near clackamas town center on 82nd ave called pony express wigs and boutique...its like right near a pizza hut...they have wigs there and if you mention that you're doing cosplay/theater stuff they give you a discount.  they can also go through catalogs with you and help you pic a color if they don't have it in the store.  that's where i got my tamaki wig (see siggy)

I'd also check wig land, he's got some long red wigs. Because that's where I got my Axel wig.
He's located near the Lloyd center mall.
