They're really hit and miss. Especially over the holidays since they didn't "quality check" their inventory (or whatever the hell their excuse was) and people were sent terrible stuff. They've been known to troll websites that gave them bad reviews, and they've given incredibly inaccurate stuff. Not only in the cosplay community, but also for weddings (google it omg) and lolita. All of their images are stolen, too.

However, if you want to risk it depite all the bad reviews, their immaturity, etc. it's your money at risk.

Wow...The site takes forever so I never bothered with them

Does anyone here know of a good place for buying a wig for the character I want to cosplay as. I was planning on going as Henry Townsend from Silent Hill 4.

stands there- humm I dont rember the site ...=.=

Hm...wigs. I should start thinking about that since I'm planning on cosplaying this year's mascot and I'm not sure about using spray-on hair dye...
Thoughts, anyone?

Hazuza · « **Reply #9 on:** January 13, 2010, 09:19:30 pm »

spray-on hairdye almost never works, unless it's very subtle, like if you have dark hair and are aiming for a very dark color, like dark blue or purple. Even then it rarely works since it looks like you put paint on your hair...

For white, you'd definitely need a wig (If you're going to bother using the right hair color, at least) It isn't too hard to get one that style, but maybe that color. Various eBay sellers are actually pretty reputable (even though they steal photos sometimes, they usually are using the same supplier) and I can personally vouch for amphigory

Okay, that's good

I'll go research wigs soon...><

There are two main sites I get my wigs from and both of them are cheap quality wigs (plus free shipping on most things)

http://stores.ebay.com/Professional-Only This site has almost anything you need. I got all but two of my wigs there

http://stores.ebay.com/Wig-Fever I got one from here already and getting another (ordered it tonight) and I love the quality.

Both places take about 9-16 days (weekdays) for delivery but I have loved all my wigs so I think it is worth it :3

Ooh! thanks!
Wig caps or no? (If yes, where should I look for them?)

Thanks for dealing with me

I take it you read none of the reviews I posted?

nikkiolie · « **Reply #15 on:** January 15, 2010, 06:37:44 pm »

Wig caps are great. Even bald people should wear them.

oops sorry
I was just distracted by the site.
After reading your review I am sadly dissappointed.
I wanted to get some of those because they looked so amazing and the prices looked excelent.
But if they are really that terrible I will go back to MoonCostumes for my orders.

Tsuki-Ken · « **Reply #17 on:** January 19, 2010, 04:47:59 pm »

Okay, wig caps...
What's a good price for a decent wig?

Hazuza · « **Reply #18 on:** January 19, 2010, 05:05:20 pm »

Depends... Usually they're 20~40, more if they're long, specially styled, or very good quality.

You don't really want to skimp out on a white one, since white is really easy to see through, and you might be able to see the mesh/net thing underneath. And you don't want a cheap-quality long one, since the fibers might tangle easier. ono

nikkiolie · « **Reply #19 on:** January 19, 2010, 05:06:34 pm »

I pay about $2 for three of them

RoseM · « **Reply #20 on:** January 19, 2010, 11:52:20 pm »

I love wigs! They make me transform into a beautiful person, always.

Tsuki-Ken · « **Reply #21 on:** January 20, 2010, 04:10:54 pm »

Thanks for the advice, everyone!
When I have more time, I'll definitely check out all of the sites!
