-Blow Out Your Eardrums- Sephiroths samurai girl Washing really is the best option. Some products can turn opaque or white when crushed or made wet again so just putting more on top can cause some discolouration. You can get a wet cloth and work the product out that way however it's going to take you a stupid amount of time and you probably won't be able to get all the product out unless you've got it really wet and use some kind of cleaner which will also need to be washed out. It's really not hard to wash a wig, it'll take you about half an hour for a long wig. Thanks for the advise. I'm debating just buying synthetic hair shampoo and using that. Seems reasonable enough seeing as it's only about $7.
It definitely is the easiest option. :3 If you don't want to buy more shampoo you can use regular shampoo too. I generally use pantenne but most brands will work fine. Just wash it like you would your own hair but with cold water and let it drip dry. I normally add in a little conditioner too as it helps prevent tangling during and after washing. If you're in doubt about using a specific brand (though I've never had any problem with any of the brands I use), you can do a strand test like you would on your own hair when dyeing it.

Me-Chan916 Sephiroths samurai girl Me-Chan916 Hi, so I recently got a spiky blue wig off of ebay for a Black Star cosplay. It's great and all but a few of the spikes are kind of coming undone or something. I am not an expert on wig and wig styling but is there a sort of gel or something I could us to fix them up a bit? And if so could someone reccomend a brand that works well and isn't too pricey? Hair gels you want to completely avoid, go with either a putty or spray. I like to use Fructis Manga Head, it's fairly cheap and you only need a little of it for styling. Got2Be glued is also an option but more expensive and does the same job. I don't like using hair spray but any should do. And these products would be good to be used on wigs?
Yes ^^; The only thing that should be avoided is hair gel as I've said already. It works on the oils in your hair which wigs don't have, where as the other products will just stick to the fibres without the use of oils.

[This is also on cosplay.com but I'm not getting much answers do to the login problems there. Might also put this on the cosplay forums here]
Okay, so i'm dumb enough not to post this sooner but I'm on a tight schedule and my con is in May.
So please, please, please help!
I'm being Jun Manjoume, and here he is: http://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n...anjoume_GX.jpg
Now, I know with that kind of hair, my wig isn't going to be exactly like it but I'm still gonna need volume to style it(well I'm not the one styling it)
So wig experts, please tell me which wig to get! Some experts at my cosplay club suggested this wig: http://amphigory.com/wigs_celeste.html Problem is: Doesn't come in black and I can't continously bug them b/c they have way more of a life than me and that includes doing commission and working on their own costumes and preparations for May(not to mention the club is only once a week).
Again, please help me! I prefer buying wigs from that site(but you can give me something else from a different site) but I know practically nothing on wigs. I just know for Jun, the wig has to be long-ish like the above. But like most people, I don't have that much money. So if you can link me to the cheapest wig possible(I know, it's probably gonna be at least 30 bucks anyway) for this character, it would be great!
Please and thanks ahead of time!
