CosWorx Wigs in Action! [Submit Yours!]

[Michi]

Wondered what the wigs in the CosWorx store look like in person? After being styled? With a costume? You've come to the right thread! You can post a wig straight out of the bag or even completely styled beyond recognition. Anything could end up helping your fellow cosplayer. Even if the wig wasn't bought from CosWorx, if it's sold in the store then it's a valid addition to the thread. Thanks!

A list has been compiled of all of the wigs posted in this thread for easy access (no more searching!). You can find it here. Enjoy!

Had to look, but I found a few.

And this one is me in the Silver White Ashley wig.

Here is a picture of me wearing a Tina 950 wig in color #1B. Very little styling was done to this wig. I did a bit of floofing to the bangs, and cut in the shorter pieces in the front.

I have a gallery full of wigs I've done on commission, and almost all of them were ordered from CosWorx. If anybody is curious about which ones I used, feel free to ask.

this is a pic of my bro posing as mafuruji sho. (YGX)
i used a punky wig in light blue color, colored the top tips of the wig darker with a sharpie and then style it as the chracter hair.

in my opinion, its a great wig to start with in case there some chracters with spiky long hair like

Another example, Yami No Yugi wig! Also for my Brother. It is a Henna Red Linda S Wig. http://images.cosplay.com/showphoto.php?photo=893894
Style and then added Black and Yellow extensions made from Dr.Locks.

And this is My Ryou Bakura wig!

This is Secret in Dark Blue. I didn't change the part in the wig, I simply trimmed down one side and made the other side flip out a bit. I also did a bit of cutting in the back and sewed in an antenna into the wig, but that doesn't really matter. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.

All my Cosworx wigs of my own have been modified... Enjoy this more for styling notes.

Alicia XL in Fire Red
Costume: "Alice in Wonderland" Lina Inverse (Slayers)
The bangs were trimmed slightly, and I cut pieces surrounding the bangs to be part of the bangs both to thicken them and to keep hair from falling into my face. Otherwise unmodified.

Angela 750 in Henna Red
Costume: Lavi/Rabi (D.Gray-man)
Very heavily styled! Wig was straightened with a low heat ceramic flatiron, trimmed, and styled with a hairdryer and significant amounts of hairspray.

Angela 750 in Yellow
Costume: Sanji (One Piece)
Slightly straightened and then cut. Not a very good job, and not a wig I'd recommend for this costume again. It's almost too thick for this style, and it doesn't unwave enough.

[b]Angela 750 in Honey Golden Blonde (25BC)
Costume: Judeau (Berserk)
The wig was fully straightened, layers cut into the front, and the back pulled into the low ponytail. This color is completely unmodified and is perhaps the most awesome blonde I've ever seen in a wig! I wish more wigs came in this color, it's fabulous. This is also a good example of how long a straightened and not cut Angela is.

Ashley 850 in Butterscotch Blonde (24B)
Costume: Giorno Giovanna (JoJo's Bizarre Adventure)
A significant portion of the front was parted off into three sections which were turned into the curls, which are held together with heat styling and ridiculous amounts of hair product. The back was cut into the mullet type thing and the longer pieces at the bottom were braided, with the end trimmed and pulled into the loop. There are also significant amounts of metallic gold hairspray on this thing, particularly in the front. It doesn't change that much about the color, but it's definitely worth noting. I was originally going to use the Linda for this one, but it had almost too much hair. So yeah. Ashley 850 is very much like a Linda without the layers and a little less thick.

Bob in Auburn (30)
Costume: Sochie Heim (Turn-A Gundam)
The bangs were trimmed shorter, the front pieces were cut in, and the back was trimmed to a short haircut.

Bob in Medium Brown (8)
Costume: Sakuma Ryuichi (Gravitation)
The bangs were heatstyled into the "split" in the front, the wig was trimmed, and the entire thing was colored by hand with lime green sharpie.

[b]Bob in Medium Brown (8)
Costume: Prince Arren (Gedo Senki)
Wig has been cut down.

Bob in Off-Black (1B)
Costumes: http://images.cosplay.com/gallery.ph...521]Child Howl and Black Haired Howl (Howl's Moving Castle)
This is the least modified Bob that I own. The entire wig was straightened, additional bangs were cut at the sides (another case of New Look wigs with bangs tending to fall into my face), and that's it. I do occasionally use hairspray or styling products to slightly "arrange" the wig to match whichever Howl I'm using it for.

Linda in Auburn (30)
[url=http://images.cosplay.com/gallery.php?cat=21450&member=4521]Costume: Peppo (Gankutsuou)
I cut bangs into it and stuck the hat on it. Not my best styling job but eh, whatever. I also used it as an emergency wig when I cosplayed as Sophie. In those pictures, I've just braided the thing. You can see just how long and thick Lindas are!

Linda XL in H24B/613
Costume: Edward Elric (Fullmetal Alchemist)
The entire wig was first streaked with a combination of marigold and yellow sharpie. I then turned the layers into the front into Ed's bangs (which were heatstyled to flip, and the antenna hairsprayed in), and braided and trimmed the back. This was one of the first Cosworx wigs I used and at this point I didn't realize just how long the regular Linda and Linda XL were in comparison to each other. If I redid this, I'd use a regular Linda.

All our PMK wigs came from Cosworx, some of them were heavily styled while others were simply pulled back to pony tails XD

http://images.cosplay.com/showphoto.php?photo=767391

it was just cut shorter and I darkened it and gave it a little more 'red' highlights by simply running a red sharpy across the wig.

Color: purple

Kakashi wig
Wig Used: Punky S
Color: platinum Blonde - wig didnt come in white so it was the lightest color we could get, I had to custom dye it silver with sharpies

http://images.cosplay.com/showphoto.php?photo=853195
Sasuke wig
wig used: Punky S
Color: black
Alot of styling went into the wig to get the right 'Sasuke' hair effect also trying to imitate Pikminlink's Sasuke wig as desired by the customer who asked for the wig to be commissioned.

Here's a Pamela in 613 Bleach Blonde. It actually looks somewhat lighter than that in most lighting, as you can see in this outtake shot:

http://www.kekkai.org/andrea/art/cos...lauslaughs.jpg

If I'm remembering right, Klaus here was a Deluxe Cleo in Off-Black, trimmed slightly at the bangs. (And I later added extensions to the Pamela, but these pics are before I did anything with it at all.)

[GabrielDarkhawk]

I think the only cosworx wig I've used is for my Spike cosplay. It's a Punky in color 4 (Dark Brown) with the mullet chopped off a bit.

http://images.cosplay.com/showphoto.php?photo=689855

It's dark, but you can still tell that it's brown. ^^

Alicia S in #8-Medium Brown
not modified in any way

http://members.cosplay.com/costume/39967/
Punky in #6-Brown
side pieces and bangs cut, styled so that the hair that was originally down stuck up too.

http://members.cosplay.com/costume/58453/ and side-wiew
Punky in Dark Green
cut length of both the hanging down section of hair and the section that wanted to stick up, styled back and partly in ponytail

(I think this is a great idea! Just the kind of thing I've been wishing existed)
edit: I didn't want to make a new post, but I'd really like it if people put up the color number as well as the name.

[VickyBunnyAngel]

I used an Amanda in Emerald to do my Haydee (gankutsuou) cosplay. I really liked how it was full in the back so I had enough hair for side bangs, and some hair to pull back into loop (no extensions). After styling the back did seem a bit thin, but the hairstyle covered that up.

Alicia XXl in Platinum - http://images.cosplay.com/showphoto.php?photo=853403 ( I dyed it with blue and purple sharpies.)

2 Punky one in Blonde (roxas), one in "Brown" (sora) Also one Ashley ( Riku) dyed blue - http://images.cosplay.com/showphoto.php?photo=815556

The only problem I'm having with cosworx is never getting the colour I order. It seems whenever I order a punky wig, no matter what shade of brown I order it comes in dark brown. But what is weird is that the tags say the correct shade. *grumble* Other than that I've found the rest of the wigs great. Alicia xxl is really full if your not doing any major work on it, once you try to pull it up you notice the wefts are thin at the top near the skin top.

http://members.cosplay.com/costume/52831/ - Tina in 12 (Golden Brown). The bangs were straightened with hot water and trimmed. They came quite wavy and curled under.

Wow, that looks really great. I should try that with my Yuuko ( also a Tina)

Amanda in Dark Blue
Sohryu from Yami no Matsuei!
Pulled the sides back into the loopy bun. After pulling it up, the netting showed a bit, but the crown and feathers covered it up ^___^

Punky S in Light Brown (10)
Train Heartnet from Black Cat
For now, this is the base wig. It's GORGEOUS. The fibers are so silky and pretty!!! The product image on Cosworx does it no justice -_-
First picture is the original wig, right out of the bag, second is cut and tamed a bit with the hot water treatment.

Alicia S in Burgandy (30)
Kairi from Kingdom Hearts
Right out of the bag ^_^
Note: this wig has frizzy fiber along the base of the bangs and some of the inner hair, but it's not noticable at all looking at it on the outside.

Linda XXL in Silver (60)
Alucard from Castlevania: Symphony of the Night
I love this thing to death... It's a WALL of wig fiber. Thickest I've worked with! First shot is the original wig, right out of the bag.
