If you can afford that one, is really good. I think it's the best euphemia wig I've ever seen.

You can try to buy instead of an already styled wig, an extra long pink wig and make the two buns with hairgrips and a cooking gelatine called "gelatine leaves" (it's for sell on drugstores in leaves, it's cheap and have to be mixed with boil water,stired and let it settle, then use it like hair gel) or hair gel (I highly recommend the gelatine better if the hair of the wig is synthetic), and curl it with curlers, hair gel and hair spray. But those wigs aren't chip at all:

I'm sorry if you are confused for something I've said. It's a bit difficult for me to speak about materials in english since I don't know if the translation is ok, or sometimes I wonder if some fabrics I use and I can't find english translations exists on other countries. Plus, each country has their own way to call materials and fabrics @_@. Hope I could help a bit.

Thanks! I saw the prices and spazzed out. I need to get a job! xD

I want to style the wig myself, but if I have to, i'll just buy it premade. You helped alot! xD

I like to go to amphigory.com or cosworx.com for wigs. also, katie bair's site has some useful tutorials as well as lots of examples of real wigs styled for characters, so you can kind of get an idea of what it will look like.
