Wow, that's amazing. I actually don't have any critiques because this is one of the best L wigs I've seen. Great job! XD

I think it is pretty cool! Making it 100% original L is impossible. Besides the hair style, acting L's special behavior will make u more like L!

It actually wasn't all that difficult. I did it over a few weeks in a series of steps. I used Got2Be glued water resistant spiking glue (screaming hold), a comb, and a hair straightener.

First, I purchased the wig from the Ebay store, CosplayWig. Its the Izaya (Durarara) one. http://stores.ebay.com/COSPLAY-WIG
This is what it looked like when I pulled it out of the bag

So what I did: I clipped up the top sections, grabbed chunks of the bottom sections, applied gel, and straightened them into individual spikes. You have to do this over the entire head. On the top you may need to put a few curlers in to give it strength. This is what it looked like then:

I let it sit for a while, to let the curlers work. Then I basically combed the spikes a bit and applied more gel, removed the curlers, and straightened it some more.

Then, I combed out ALL of the spikes so it looked like how it does now!!

Hope that helps

I feel cool. This is your own to do it?I can only be purchased in smalltao.com so similar to the wig, but also very realistic, is not so much trouble and the price is very affordable.
