Mini tutorial time! I recently discovered that wool balls make an excellent base to style ponytails around. You can dye them, sew them, screw them into a base and they're easy to shape the wig fibers around. The wig is an @ardawigs Jasmine in salmon.

I hate the unnatural way I speak when trying to narrate tutorials. I'm so sorry for my awkward robot voice when I'm nervous. Anyway, I put up a really quick walkthrough on how I made the roots of my Galadriel wig darker on my free Patreon. I didn't go crazy into depth bc I have multiple wig dying tutorials on there, if you need more details! www.patreon.com/AmazonMandy #galadriel #cosplayprogress #cosplaytutorial #tutorial #wig #wigtutorial #howto #diy #elf #cosmaker #timelapse https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx20eWUBaxy/?igshid=18der58rfw1q9

“I am Mordred, the one true heir of Arthur Pendragon” ⚔️⚔️⚔️ Anyone else as obsessed with #FateApocrypha as I am? I fell in love with Mordred the moment she appeared on screen and was so excited to be given the opportunity to style her wig for @epiccosplay. Their wigs are so easy to style and the #CaramelBlonde color is just perfect for Mordred! Want to learn how I achieved this gravity defying style using only a Hestia and Long Clip?

Here's a wig tutorial as promised for Lucio from the game, Overwatch. I was asked by my client to make this wig's ponytail to have more of a natural fall while still look accurate to the game design of the character. It was a learning experience on my part as well since this is the first time I made a full wig using textured hair/weave. I used about 5-7 packages of Kanekalon Definition Braid hair in color "27" which is like a light brown shade from a local wig shop. ($10 per pack) You can purchase this from online sites like Amazon or Ebay as well. Mojito Twist braid synthethic hair is a good alternative. I don't recommend cheap braiding hair to make this wig since it's too light and harder to shape. The methods I used for this wig are not meant for using in real hair or everyday-wear wig, only cosplay wig which is not meant to be shampoo'd (you can do spot-cleaning or use dry shampoo). Please be open minded as I am still learning about making this type of wigs too. :) Here are the steps: - Lucio has 6 large dreadlocks that make up his ponytail, so you want to make 6 tails separately at first. Measure and cut floral wire to be about half the length of the final length you need the tail to be. Wrap the floral wire with soft batting (the stuff for making blankets), cut several 3-inch-wide strips ahead of time. Secure the batting strip as you wrap it with a dot of hot glue as needed. Wrap it more tight at the beginning and wrap it more loose towards the end to create bigger shape. Stuff a bit of fiberfill (the stuff for pillows) inside the tail at the bottom to help it maintain the plump shape. Then use strips of brown tulle fabric to wrap around the tail over the batting layer. Doing this will make the hair stays on better when you glue it later to the tail. - Cut about 1 and a half inch of definition braid hair and start wrapping it from the base where the floral wire pokes out. Apply hot glue from the start and keep applying bits of hot glue on the tail and wrap the hair as you go. If the hair fray while you do this, use Got2B freezing spray and pat the hair down. I prefer to only spray one time when I finish wrapping a whole tail so I don't waste too much hair spray. - When putting the 6 tails together, the ponytail will be heavy, so you want to make some kind of foundation that will go under the main wig. There are many ways to do this, but I used elastic band with corset boning and a hairband to put together. I used the floral wire length that poked out from each tail to wrap around the hairband to attach it. - Use a wig cap meant for wig-making as a base. I used an extra large one but still have to add some net fabric in the back to enlarge the cap even more. Before you do all that, make sure to pad the foam wig head so it's accurate size to whomever the wig is for. Pin the ponytail foundation to the foam head. Cut the back of the wig cap to open it and cut a circle on the top where the ponytail will poke out. Place the wig cap on the foam head and sew the back seam shut with wefting needle and wefting thread. Cut and sew lacefront fabric to the front along the hairline part of the wig cap. Leave the length as shown in the pic for now. - Use a small piece of hair to wrap around the wig cap starting from the top area near the base of the ponytail and work your way down. Use little bit of Fabri-Tac glue (or strong fabric glue) to help secure the hair in place. - Use Fabri-Tac glue to "draw" lines on the hair on the wig cap. Refer to your reference for the character. Lucio's hair in this area looked like zigzag rows of dreads so I made the lines as such. Use the tail of a fine-tooth comb to press down the glue as you apply so the hair where you press will stay down, thus create dimension between each row. Once the glue completely dries and harden, cut into the front hairline to make angled hairline shape. - Paint the lines of glue with acrylic paint that closely matches the skin color of the person who will wear the wig. This will be fake scalp part. Then cut short piecese of hair (about 2-3 inch short) and glue it down on the fake scalp line between each row using Tacky Glue (or craft glue that dries clear) This step will take forever to finish but the result looks good and will look like the hair is growing out from the scalp. - And you're done! Use spirit gum or lacefront tape to secure the front hairline down when wearing the wig. I added flexi-comb under the front part of the wig as well because it will slide back from the weight of the tail. I hope this tutorial was helpful for you guys. Now you can go and heal your team as Lucio! "Amp it up!" 😎
