Re: Rapunzel WIP for Halloween!
Thanks again everyone! Still waiting on my fabric to get moving with the rest of it... UGH...
Zlurpo!!! GET ON IT!!! Most wigs on Ebay are from China and Korea and sometimes take their sweet time to get here! D: Then again, it's usually not that bad shipping to the States instead of Canada ( I sent it to my brothers house over there for that reason ). Honestly, I looked through ebay for a trillion ( meaning 3 ) hours before I narrowed it down to 5 and then down to 1.
Most of the guys wigs on ebay are crappy Halloween ones or Asian schoolboy hairstyles. :lol
I saw in your thread that you were going to look into a lace front. We're working on a tight timeline and budget so even though ours is a heat resistant kanekalon ( which usually reads: good quality for a costume wig ), it's not a lace front. For this reason: The only ones that were were all longer ladies ones at a slightly higher price range ( ours was $22 ) and would need COMPLETE styling. I'm good at styling wigs, but that's 'cause I do my own hair. I have no idea how to cut guys hair so I didn't want to chance it on a $30+ wig, ruin it, and then have no time or money to order another. Taking some influence for the Face characters who have a more brushed style than gelled in one direction, and on most of those guys you can't even see the hairline anyways. I think it'll be hidden enough to not matter. Confidence!!!
Speaking of which, I really wanted a lace front for my base Punzie and then when I went and ordered them all, I totally forgot about it. Oh well. No turning back now, that's for sure!
I like the style we got for Flynn though and since it has center piece shaggy bangs, it should be easy to brush them over to the right side. I'll post photos once I pick it up!

What wig did you get? I still need to buy mine.
But boots I'm gonna make myself!
