Hi all,

I'm looking to put together a cute Velma costume for a photoshoot. Ignoring the film version for now, which of these wigs would you think would work best?

Short bob:

or slightly longer bob:

I know they're only cheap imports, but I'm hoping they'll look at least a bit like the photos in the listings

Opinions?

Her hair is short in the cartoons but I think the longer one looks better. IMO

Her hair is much fluffier than both of those, they are too flat.

If you're going for the cartoon it needs to be short but over the ear, and fluffy and full.

You can buy a longer, fuller wig and wear it while a hairstylist cuts it to length and style.

I see what you mean, but I'm a 6ft tall bloke, so may look a bit silly. I'll be the one taking the photographs

Ah yes, I did read that.

I'd go with the shorter one.
