I once had worn my one wig(it was a rainbow wig) to school and I had older kids giving my the strangest looks while younger kids, oh the innocent little ones that don't know about wigs, asked over and over if it was my real hair. I had a couple ask if I was dressing up as rainbow dash! (one made me a pair of blue paper wings and gave them to me to wear; "to be the perfect Pegasus" she said) little kids are the best

How did you get the confidence to start wearing wigs? Like do you/did you get negative feedback or weird questions when you started? I'd love to start wearing wigs and I'm usually quite confident, but I don't want too much attention if that makes sense... Also how comfortable are they to wear?

wigs feel different for every person I think and it can depend on the size of the weft but the best way I can describe it is that it feels like wearing a hat and the length and thickness of the hair will determine how heavy it feels although if you have long hair or wear extensions then it's similar to that kind of weight. as for the commentary and confidence part I can only speak for myself but people mostly are just curious about where you get wigs or they just like to compliment. there are assholes out there but you learn to ignore them. overall it's mostly just about not caring about what other people think because if it makes you feel good and you like how you look in wigs then their opinions don't matter

For now since my hair is so short this part isn’t much help since I can easily get all my hair in the cap without a ponytail BUT it’ll be a huge help once my hair does eventually grow out lol 💞

Eden Sol maybe you could buy a white or blond wig and watch her wig dyeing tutorial. When you do it you could use less pigment, making it lighter. It would also give you complete control over the shade of hair you have.

I don't think I've commented on your KZfaq channel, but I have been watching and enjoying them quite a lot. :D I had two wigs before coming across your channel, but since watching your videos for the past months, I've become super interested in GLW/RS wigs. :D I'm already waiting the fourth to arrive. And hopefully watching this video will help me place the wigs fit more naturally on my head.^^ I'm super glad you've made a KZfaq channel and remained fairly consistent uploading. :D I know it's not your first priority (since you work for a wig company and all), but I think the channel helped you and the GLW/RS in the long run. I probably wouldn't have become interested wearing wigs more often without coming across your channel. :D Sorry for mini essay, but anyways~ Mmmm maybe you can make a "Do's and Don't" video for wigs? Or maybe mistakes you've made over the years? Or maybe show a whole day while wearing a wig (depending on weather, daily activity, etc.)? And something you've probably were already doing/going to do anyway--accessorizing the wig accordance to outfit. :D Other than that, I'm not sure what kind of suggestions would be good for a video. o-o

it shouldn't affect it. what you can do if you are natural and sometimes want to wear a wig is French braid your hair then after you're done wearing your wig and you want to wear your hair natural you'll have kinky curls or twists work the same way and the wig cap will keep your hair down.

+Ariane Louise Wearing a hat or even a wig can't cause any-type of problems. Unless you have some type of hair problem that make's your head very itchy which will make it hard for you to wig one. But if you are a beginner in wearing wigs, You should start with the short type of wigs than move your way up the charts of the wigs from short to medium to long to very long type of wigs. It really depends on the style of wig you want. If you are buying wigs off of ebay due to money issues with family. It's a good idea but you need to make sure those type of wigs will not fall apart on you. And Keep an eye on the condition of the wigs. I make sure that my wigs are stored in a place that no bugs or even some type of bad dirt to water will get in them. Make sure you keep the bags that you get with the wig. Because if you don't. That's causing more problems for you to handle. So if you are a beginner, slowly make your way up to the top. It took me four years to start making my way up to the top. Also if you have the same hair type as me. Of your hair being very long and it being so thick and thin that you need to make sure that some of the hair styles that you are doing to keep the wig down. Don't show up through the wig, because i had that problem two times during three of the anime cons i want too. So just a heads up.~

Use dry shampoo spray. it takes away the over the top shine and makes it appear more realistic. ^_^ Hope this helps!

one way i do it is shampooing the wig (carefully) then putting coconut oil in it for a bit before washing that out again, it gives it a natural shine and makes the wig super soft.

I've tried dry shampoo before and honestly I feel that baby powder does a MUCH better job. Putting "real hair" products on a synthetic wig messes it up so I wouldn't suggest using coconut oil or any other "real hair" products at all on synthetic fibres, if you want to make it soft or tame down frizz, you can use liquid fabric softener.

You could put it on a foam head that may stop it a bit. I've found though if it's a cheap wig it's jst inevitable that it'll be frizzy/messy :/

i own a few wigs (not the best quality but also not party wigs) and i was wondering how do you get used to wearing them visually? like i have blonde hair but i own a sailor moon cosplay wig, brown curly wig with bangs, short white wig and a purple long wig with bangs but whenever i wear them i feel as if it looks fake (and not like a wig fake) but as if it doesn't sit normally or as if its super obvious (especially the brown one) that it isn't my hair. in short, how do you get used to looking at yourself with completely different hair? i hope this makes sense.
@MarcelWilsonLynch
@MarcelWilsonLynch 8 жыл бұрын
if you wear them more often then you get more used to seeing yourself in that hair color or style. and filling in your eyebrows to match the color of the wig better might help.

If it's a low quality wig would it make your head itch? I have 3 wigs and none of them are hugely expensive ones, just ones off eBay. when I wear them my head gets so hot and itchy and I can't keep the wig on for long
@littleowlcomics1370

+potato I'd suggest wearing a stocking cap to stop it itching! To begin with I found wigs super itchy, but now I don't anymore because I wear two since I have super big curly hair. I have a variety of super good quality and ebay ones and tbh there isn't much of a difference itch-wise, unless the fibers are poking the wrong way through the net (another tip is to carry a pen or knitting needle or something to poke through the mesh to itch and not mess up the wig too much)

It's to give you options for the colour and the length, you can have short blue hair on Tuesday but long white hair on Friday. Doing that to your natural hair isn't possible and would probably ruin it.

you can secure the wig with bobby pins. allot of bobby pins. and I'm not sure if this will work but try two or three wig caps under the swim cap then the wig then secure with bobby pins

I have medium-lenght hair (mid-back lenght) but it's EXTREMALLY THICK and the only way I can wear wigs is to use two wig caps (first net then mesh) and put my hair under them without braiding or anything - I just tuck it under, making something like a hair-helmet ahaha :D When I braid it then the wig becomes lumpy (my braids are really THICK). And when I do multiple braids, they're too thick to fit my head lol, there's no space for them to pin them. So.... you should try 2-caps wig-helmet method too :D It could work!
