A curated list of shopping resources for cosplay, costumes and wigs. Perfect for finding materials for cosplay, suggestions for Halloween and general costume supplies.

I also think Epic Cosplay's long wigs are excellent. Another point to add is that the wigs are always very thick and it seems to make the fibers stick together a bit more (keeping some of the flyaways at bay).

I've finally cleaned out my cosplay closet, so I'm getting rid of a few things. Prices do not include shipping; however, I work for UPS so I can tell you right now that the shipping will be anywhere between $10 - $15 depending on where you live (International orders will cost more than the projected price).

Seconding Milky_bubbles' recommendation. You don't need expensive stuff, the cheapest of cheapass hairsprays are fine for wigs. Aquanet, Got2B, etc, there's a reason so many people swear by Got2B. But if you need to restyle, don't brush it out, wash it out.

[QUOTE=cosplay_beau;4179300]I can understand the part to commission costume, but what's the benefit of commissioning wigs? And wouldn't like you say, the style would be messed up during the shipping process?[/QUOTE] The benefit of commissioning wigs is to get it styled in a way that you yourself cannot do justice by yourself.

if u want to do gravity defying spikes..i use freeze it..its stronger then got2be..much stronger..at fred meyers its about 5 or 6 bux..and walmart i think about 4 bux..im not sure tho..i used it on my sora wig..like the back of it more then the spikes..and the back if almost rock hard..but if u use less it wont be like that..it will work perfect for what ur doing and also when u use a blow ...

There is only one major tangle and it's hardly noticeable. If you take care of their wigs they will last you years. Arda is another good site, their wigs tangle easier but they are high quality and thick. I also recommend Manycosplay, and Miccostumes, but Miccostumes wigs run VERY small.

Arda wigs goes pretty much into detail into what wigs make good ponytail wigs for cosplay explaining the types of wefts and such, but other sites I've come across don't seem to list that in the wigs' specifications.

Upon searching forums, I came across a post that said they used Mane 'N Tail instead of the Motion's Oil Sheen spray. I had 2 wigs in desparate need of detangling and saving so I thought I'd give the MNT a shot. So here's my results and essentially how I detangled my wigs.-----STEPS/PROCESS

I'm not going to pretend to be an expert on wigs, because I'm not. But the first thing you've got to understand is WIGS ARE NOT HAIR. Regular shampoos don't work well with wigs, and I know from personal experience that nothing else really gets out got2b glue. Honestly, Aqua Net, Rave, cheap Wlamart aerosols hair sprays are the best for wigs.
