Review on Half Red And Silver Cosplay Wig For Halloween Costume - Linfairy Short Wig by Major Lindsay

Larger Size Fit Over Very Long, Thick Hair

This larger sized adult wig worked great for putting on over my daughter's very long and very thick hair. We've had bad luck before with cheap costume wigs that never fit. Many of the cosplay and anime wigs are in either children's or small adult sizes. I searched and searched for a larger adult sized wig, and was happy to see that this adjustable wig fit size 58 to 61 cm. My daughter's head is already about 58 cm, but I knew that by the time we got her hair up we'd need more room than many of the standard 58 cm size wigs.The wig looked great, very much like Todoroki's icy hot hair. The white color was a nice shade of white, and not a dark silver that buyers disliked on other brands of wigs. Both the white and red side had nice highlight and low lights, providing a very natural look - or as natural as you can expect for a real life version of an animated character. It was shiny enough to look like hair as opposed to the dull doll like hair found in many costume wigs, but no too shiny that it needed toned down like some synthetic wigs. There was minimal shedding, and only when combed put the first time, but hair didn't just randomly fall out throughout an afternoon of wearing. Some people have complained about the part between colors being imperfect, but we thought that made it more natural. A strict division of colors in the part might look a little too cartoon like and could allow the under layers to show through.An "open" mesh style wig cap came with it. To deal with my daughter's very long (thigh length) and very thick hair, we divided it into 4 braids while still damp. Then we wound them around her head and pinned them in place with open style hair pins. Then we used the included open mesh wig cap to hold it all in place and pinned some more. Then we covered that with an additional stretch stocking type wig cap in beige for compression, and to prevent show through if her dark hair, that we purchased at a discount beauty and wig shop. Then she put the wig on and adjusted it. She pressed it in on the sides so that it would lay a bit flatter. It looked great when we were finished, and no one would have any idea that there was a massive amount of hair under the wig.For another shorter event, we just put her hair into a low ponytail, then braided it and tucked it into her shirt. She put on the wig cap and wig, and adjusted the back clasp to hold it in place.We're very pleased with the size, price and quality of the Linfairy wig, and plan to buy more for upcoming cosplay events.
