La vie

So you’re pressed for time and want your shiny wig to look more matte because it is kind of bothering you how unnaturally shiny it is.

The wig I’m using is the Eowyn by Arda in Princess Pink. I put it on today to see how the color would look for the cosplay I got it for (Anemone from Eureka SeveN) and if i needed to add some more color or not etc etc (i do I think but. that’s a story for another day - otherwise it’s an ALMOST perfect wig in my opinion). When I put it on I felt a little queasy - the fibers were fantastic, the parting was phenomenal - a good, quality, Arda wig. But it was so SHINY??! At least for MY taste. I prefer my cosplay wigs to look like they do in the anime or manga - matte, sculpted, cartoony almost. It probably has most to do with the color of course, but I still had to do something about it.

Not long ago I discovered a phenomenal method of making a wig appear more matte by sheer dumb luck. And now, after testing it on 3 other wigs to be sure it actually works - I pass this tutorial on to everyone out there with $4.50 to spare (if you use 40% joann or michaels coupons that is which you should be doing anyway this is COSPLAY guys)
