Matching Colors [Image Heavy]

Ok, last wig thread, I promise!!

I'm looking at wigs for my sister who's going as Yoko Kurama.

And I'm looking at 2 wigs, but I 'm not sure whether White or Silver would look better. The silver one has a better cut, and I know yoko's hair is technically silver, but I dunno which would look better irl.

I'm personally leaning towards silver, but I'd like to know some other opinions. Thanks!!

I'm leaning toward the silver as well. The color is darker then the white and better matches the reference image you have.

Definitely go with the silver. The cut IS better, plus the color is much closer to matching your reference than the white one was.

Good luck.

Silver for sure.
It matches Youko's hair much better than the white.

Silver!! You could always spritz some purplish dye into it.

My Yuki Nagato wig was a dark silver when I bought it, and I just sprayed dark purple into it with a regular spray bottle.

Silver, the cut and color are perfect and you can't see the wefts and mesh through the fibers like you would with lighter colored wigs.

Silverrr for sure. It'll look a lot better against the white clothing than white will.

I'm with all of the above - silver. It looks more like the reference picture.

Thanks everyone so much! We're gonna go ahead and buy the silver one
