I have only a few weeks left until animeLA 2007, and i still havnt got my wig stuff done.please help me out! i am desperate!! T T *still hasnt finished rukia costume, and has one more to do that hasnt even been started yet*

i myself have a few questions.

1) since i am going as edo from FMA, for AnimeLA, i have a blond wig. ( my hair is naturally dark brown.) i have to style it and all that. i already have the braid, which was the fun part mind you. I ALSO plan on dying the wig because its too light for me to be edo, would anyone sugest that? now all i want to fix is the bangs. my problem is that i always see edo cosplays just pull part of the hair aside and thats it. i want to go beyond that. i actuall want the hair to look parted and all that, you get what i mean right? so any help on styleing edos hair will be great, pluse i am still having delimas with the whole changing eyebrow color thing... XD

2) i am also going as Rukia kuchiki from Bleach, ( she is so cool ! X 3)and since i am definatly not going to permanantly dye my hair black, which is what i think her hair color is, i will definatly use temporary dye. but the issue i am having is styling it. i am definatly not going to buy another wig...as my budget cant afford it, so i am growing out my hair so i can style it like hers. if there are any bleach cosplayers her that can help me, i would be so happy for help! T T i suck when it comes to hair...

3) my sister wants to do dark from DN Angel, but she is also having delimas with the h air. any helpe with what you guys can offer would be great. she wants to buy a wig and style it... ( i tell ya, she must be crazy LOL)

PLEASE HELP US!!!

1-Ed's hair shoudn't be hard. Just tye in the back and use hairspray for the bangs in the front. Dying wigs, you can just mix alchohol and a drop of sharpie, wig dye, copic marker of the color of the hair you want. But you will have to comb it and soak it in water. Im not a wig expert on dying so I suggest asking on the forums at Katie's Zoo or cosplay.com


2) i am also going as Rukia kuchiki from Bleach, ( she is so cool ! X 3)and since i am definatly not going to permanantly dye my hair black, which is what i think her hair color is, i will definatly use temporary dye. but the issue i am having is styling it. i am definatly not going to buy another wig...as my budget cant afford it, so i am growing out my hair so i can style it like hers. if there are any bleach cosplayers her that can help me, i would be so happy for help!

If you are going to dye your hair I suggest using the non permanent one. The only problem I find with that is if you expose it to water after dying it, it will come out and stain your clothes. I would suggest a wig in this case. There are sites that sell cheap wigs.



3) my sister wants to do dark from DN Angel, but she is also having delimas with the h air. any helpe with what you guys can offer would be great. she wants to buy a wig and style it... ( i tell ya, she must be crazy LOL)

1 - Use hairspray to fix the bangs. I would have to see a pic of the wig and a reference pic to Ed if you want to know if you need to dye it or not.

2- Don't dye your hair unless you want it that color for a LONG time. If you dye it black, it will be there for awhile until your hair roots grow your original hair coor back. If you use temporary dye, problem is, you will have to avoid it with touching water because it will stain your clothes that way and thats the only temporoary dye I know of. Your better off with a wig. Try coxworkx.

3-Buy lots of hairspray and purple dye. If no dye, then mix with alcohol and a drop of dark purple or a light purple with some black. Like I said, Im not good at suggesitions on dying wigs so I suggest asking on cosplay.com under wigs. Don't use hair gel, it will weight the wig unless the wig is a human hair wig.
