About this Costume
- Construction Details:
-
My sister did all the clothing parts of the outfit, i.e. both tops, the skirt, and the painting of the stockings. I did the other stuff, like trimming the wig, obtaining the shoes and hairband, and all the props (soul gem, shield, and bazooka XD ).
- Personal Thoughts:
- This is one of my favorite costumes so far. I've worn it a lot of times, and it's held up really well!
Wig Details
- Wig Brand
- Cosplay-Wig
- Wig Name
- Madoka Homura
- Original Color:
- Dark gray
- Styling Time
- 2-3 hours
- Styling Notes
- I trimmed the wig's bangs and the side tendrils with a pair of sharp scissors standing in front of a mirror while wearing it, tying the rest of the hair in the back so as not to accidentally cut it. (I had to take a break after an hour or so to give my knees a rest XD;; )
- Wig Review
- Honestly, it was the worst wig I've used, and it lasted the least amount of time. The fiber was fairly plasticky and the tangles were awful to get rid of. I eventually ended up getting a replacement Homura wig from Lucaille and the color was a darker, more anime-accurate gray, the fiber was much softer and easier to comb out, and was already styled correctly to boot. Too bad I didn't have it from the outset (and I need more pictures here with that wig, arg).
