3/4 Wigs

I need to get a wig for my Haku cosplay but the only wig I can find without bangs is a 3/4 wig(with clips).
The problem is that Haku's hair is tied up and I don't know if a 3/4 wig covers the back of ones head...
I don't want to buy a wig online since it's too expensive for me atm(normal $30 wig costs me $80 online o_o) and am looking around locally for one(south africa).
So does anyone know if a 3/4 wig(cap piece) covers the back of the head?

It does, but it doesn't cover the front. The idea of a 3/4 wig is for the wearer to use their own bangs or have the front section of their own hair hanging out. I would suggest looking around a little more. If you can't find one, try seeing if someone here in the states would order your wig and then ship it to you. It might not be so expensive that way.

Thanks!
Believe me I've looked all over and the only wigs without bangs that are available are extremely expensive

Do you think maybe it'd be possible for me to use a wig with bangs and just add extentions to them for length without it looking wierd?

You could get one with bangs and just styled them to the side. Part them in the middle, and with a blow dryer on low, give them a little warmth and hold them to the sides while they cool. Spray 'em with a little hairspray afterwards to keep em in place. That's what I'd do :]

A good thing to do with the hairdryer while setting something you've heated is to hit it with the cool shot. Works wonders, and you don't have to sit there holding the style in place for what seems like forever .
