Styling Larxene Wig ~ Tutorial
#1 | MDA on 11 years ago |

I know that some people can have a hard time with styling a Larxene wig, so I thought I might help out those of you who want to cosplay her (there are too few in my opinion) and may want help in styling a wig for her. The hair glues I used can be bought at Wal-Mart or Zellers. I paid $5 CDN for the spiking glue, and $7 CDN for the spray. |

Well, I hope this helps! Be careful with the wire though, when I restyled my friend's wig the wire got caught when I went to readjust it. |

Is there any pictures? I would love to see some. For my Larxene costume I used my own hair. I stuck it back with hairspray like hers then I pulled the two antenna pieces out and covered them in hair spray. After that I used a flat iron to shape them with. The beginning I started straight up then moved back over my head to give the curve. I am still working on getting the right shape. The first time I did it they were too wide.

There are some pictures on deviantART, at my friend's page. She's [URL="http://larxene-of-the-roses.deviantart.com"]Larxene-of-the-Roses[/URL] She has a picture posted up of how the wig was originally styled, but we haven't gotten any pictures of the wig since it was restyled in January. But there will be some after next weekend (the weekend of the 15th) of the new wig. |

Wow this is really helpful! But um...im not using a wig and some of this stuff seems dangerous for real hair. Any advice on how to style real hair into the antennas? |

[QUOTE=MDA;3037025]Since you're going to use your real hair, perhaps just twisting your hair like you would around the wire, and using LOTS of hair glue. That's really the only thing I can think of... you might need a friend to help you with it...[/QUOTE] |

[QUOTE=momo6548;3040256]Thats a good idea. Just using the wire make my kinda scared, i'd find some way to hurt myself xD but yeah, i'll definatly have someone help me with this. Lots of hair glue and spray and then blow dry, thats what i've heard is a good plan. I just hope i dont, like, destroy my hair :O[/QUOTE] |

[QUOTE=MDA;3040339]It won't. I've used loads of hair glue on my hair to make it stand up, and all it does is make your hair rock hard. Washes out with one shampoo and your hair is fine.[/QUOTE] |
