Thoughts?

Personally, I think all of those wigs are ridiculously impressive and I'm really excited to see round 2.

Great job everybody and special congrats to Korin!

>> No.6625179

They could've given the judge a wig that wasn't unstyled and didn't look awful on her, at least. So much for their own "presentation".

I was kind of disappointed that no one was eliminated, but I suppose with sushi monster dropping out they needed to keep all the contestants. Definitely looking forward to everyone's next wigs!

This. I can't stand seeing wigs on people that obviously don't fit them. Especially when you're supposed to be a professional wig designer.

Most of the wigs were good, a couple of them were great, but a couple were not so much. I don't know why they made this a non-elimination. The point of this contest is to pick a winner, not let everyone win.

This is the wig that was posted as an example of her work, but she didn't even participate in the first round which is why no one was eliminated in this round.

I get that they didn't want to give negative criticism about the wigs, but this wasn't the way to answer that. They should have at least talked about what each wig scored highest in or..... anything other than "LOOK AT THIS WIG ITS BEAUTIFUL", because it doesn't explain why anyone received the scores that they did.

I think the flower made out of hair wig should have scored way higher instead of the bottom. Like, she fucking made a perfect flower out of the hair, I stared at it for like 15 minutes, its such a mind fuck! I would love to hear how she did it.

I disagree. Wow factor was there from a distance, but up close the petals were covered messily and there were some holes. I'm not saying that it's not insanely cool, but one of the categories was neatness. She probably scored high in originality though. I wish they would give more detailed scores to explain the ranking.

that video was probably the most grating thing I've ever watched having to do with a professional contest.

It was shot so badly! the angles and the light and the people (save for the black guy) were just terribly bland and or annoying as hell. They at least should know how to put together a more tasteful presentation coming from such a famous wig brand...

I couldn't watch past the first entry it was that bad

The challenge wasn't to style a wig with pigtails. Arda probably sent that wig because it's one of the hardest to work with from their line. It's a wig that's made for only one style. Korin was even posting here talking about how far apart the wefts were. The challenge was just to do whatever you wanted, with no specifics that the pigtails needed to be incorporated. To me it was more original that they both used styled that didn't take the easy road in using the skin part.

Having immunity is a great incentive to get the top look, I'm excited to see the next challenge!

>> No.6625618

>>6625600
I agree, and I think if they wanted the contestants to incorporate the wig's base purpose/style (twintails) that probably should have been mentioned, especially if they were docking points for it? That said I'm curious what kind of challenge they're going to give next, if it'll be a more difficult or more versatile wig and if this time around they'll have specific style constraints or instructions.

Oh man that was so painful. One sentence from the "guest judge" would have been too much, honestly. Pass on having a character next time, for the love of god. Try to make it a little more professional.
I would have preferred discussion on the reasoning for the scores as opposed to just "OMG. OMG. OBNOXIOUS REPETITIVE YELLING. OMG. YELLING."

>> No.6626367

I cringe at the fact that Malinda or whatever her name is in the blue wig will probably put that back in a bag and sell it. Shes more then capable of trimming bangs in to a wig.

Also, I know they're trying to not rustle any contestants jimmies, but I wish they ACTUALLY talked about their feelings about the wigs. Pros and cons, and why they got the score, instead of just being silly about it.

That commentary was annoying and completely unnecessary. What could've been said in five minutes was dragged out to fourteen minutes with unrelated rambling.

What a waste of time. I wanted DizzyLizzy to be eliminated, her wig was atrocious next to the other competitors. I hope she ups her game next round.

DizzyLizzy's wig looks like a retarded mess.
Yes, they shaped it into a big pair of horns and did that fade sort of thing, but it looks like shit and it looks STUPID.

The fact that they are even in the running is sort of depressing, because it means they are really that desperate for contestants.

Same. I wish the comments on YT were open so that they can see the criticisms of the video. If the next one is done in a similar fashion I probably won't be keeping up with the contest anymore.

Is anyone else a little annoyed that sushi monster just dropped out? Like, I understand life gets busy and stuff and I don't know her exact reason so I guess it could have been a legitimate emergency but you knew when you applied what the time frame for entering would be, why would you apply if you thought you couldn't make the commitment?

>> No.6630902

>>6629845
Not really? I know she at least started on her wig and was just unable to complete it the way she wanted, which is why she dropped out. I don't know how early into the challenge she made the decision, though.

Though I wish she was still in it because there needed to be an actual elimination. I wonder how the video would handle something GASP, negative next challenge if they continue to play it off for silly laughs.

Korin's was my favorite, definitely. But while I thought it didn't stand up to the rest, Hee-Hee's has a great looking hairline.

My second favorite was Koi-Ishly's. So pretty!

The hosting was either bland or forced, and the character was trying too hard to join the cast of SNL's Coffee Talk.
