I did it.

So clearly a lot (if not all) of these aren't her wigs. But some of them are literal tutorials done by her on how to style lolita wigs. I dont know if she just....doesn't know that she's supposed to brush out wigs before using them or what. This was every single wig I could find her in on a 5 minute search before I got bored.

The ones on the bottom right are pigtail clipons btw.

First off only two of them are from "literal tutorials" on wigstyling and they look fine? They aren't tangled they are just worn with a few flyaways here and there.

Almost all the images where she's wearing big poofy 18th century wigs and the white wig, were styled by someone else because she was modeling in a fashion show or for an editorial, not chosen by her. Yes its an obvious wig, but that's kind of the point.

The bottom example with the red is her real hair. There is a weird filter on it bringing out the red tones in her hair more than you'd normally see, but that no wig. Her bangs are pinned back to look more sparse which seems to be the trend in japan now.

The last example on the bottom right is also her real hair, or atleast her real bangs. The ponytails look a bit hokey but that also might be due to lighting.

TL;DR you have no idea what you are talking about.

Have you even seen the videos? She literally pulls out obviously tangled and unbrushed wigs and does nothing about them. One blonde one is practically matting together when she throws it on.

This thread reminds me of one gal who always glued her wigs. One time she cosplayed wharacter with rather simple hairstyle (straight hair with a bit odd bangs). It could have been done with little styling but no, she glued the whole wig on place. Too bad I don't remember her name.

She’s a cartoon character you retard. Style any woman’s hair like that and you will see her hairline with the slightest bit of wind. No one with parted bangs like that will plaster their hair to their forehead to avoid showing their hairline.

>posting fan art instead of actual show art because in the show her parting exposes much more of her hairline

I'm more bothered by Josuke's stretched ears than anything else, they look so bad without tunnels.

I beg you to scribble out their face and crop to just their head with the wig

Yeah but barely.
With that logic, we should use lacefront wigs for every character.

Hanyaan's cosplays are usually A+ but her wigs are really hit or miss.

still would look better as a lace front.

Every time I scroll past this thread I am reminded of how unfortunate this person looks and how god awful their wig is, with the obnoxious “He styled!!!!!” text as the icing on the cake. As an OP for a bad wigs thread it is pure pottery.

>praying this is just bait


Why? Her hairline doesn’t even show. A lace front would be harder to work with since the hairs are generally going the opposite direction

Same, i'm not sure what could've been better on that wig (bang shape? idk). it's maybe one of those styles where the wig will probably looked fucked up anyway.

Please brush your fucking hair anon. A matted mess is not cute just because Misako did it.
