- Personal Thoughts:
- This was a dream costume of mine, I'm so glad I finally just bit the bullet and made it! I'm not happy with certain aspects of it, but overall I'm really pleased with how it turned out.
Wig Details
- Styling Notes
- I didn't use the long ponytail that came with the Jeannie. I teased the shorter ponytail that the wig comes in into messy spikes, then teased and heat trained the bangs into shape. Not perfect, but not too bad for a hotel job, lol.
