/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

Okay, so I've posted here before and got some phenomenal advice on how to get these pigtails to work. I'm going to make an aluminum base with screws to hold it up. Buying all of that stuff tomorrow, a proper wig head is on its way. BUT I wanted to make transportation a little easier. My plan was maybe I could attach my long wefts to the hair accessories somehow. If I could design them to open and close around the stub I am making, I could remove the long ponies to pack separately and make life easier.

My question now is... Is that a good idea? Or is it needlessly complicated? Could you guys give me some help on how to transport more complicated wigs? I don't have much experience with ponytail wigs so I'm worried that between here and the conventions it could get messed up and it will never look as good because I packed it wrong.
