“Choose one that is firm but not too stiff, but stiff enough to slap the s#&$ out of someone if they try to touch you inappropriately at an event” *THE QUEEN HAS SPOKEN*
hand lotion! after wash and conditioning, brush or comb hand lotion into he wet wig. do not rinse. let the wig drip dry. This method saved my life with my Grell cosplay. (careful. too much will make your wig feel dirty) It's a great method that also works to make cheap wigs look less shiny!
yari AJ I just dragged out my first wig last night from my closet. About 5 years old too. I used vinegar+conditioner to revive it instead of fabric softener. it's actually looking brand new!
"choose one that is firm but not too stiff, but stiff enough to slap the shit out of someone if they try to touch you inappropriately at an event" THIS IS THE BEST ADVICE EVER
Tbh the first half should already be common knowledge for people with long hair. I already knew thanks to dealing with my own longer-than-waist-length hair. Something she did neglect to mention though she did it herself is to start from the tips when combing, otherwise you just end up with a big ball of frizz that gets harder and harder to comb.
What I have started to do for my long hair is after the shampoo is keep a wide comb in the shower with you and hook it around one of the hot/cold knobs if you have two or the singular one or the faucet for the bath and then after you shampoo and wash it out (I shampoo and spray my hair with Johnson and Johnson's baby detangling spray as I have found others due to my sensitive skin and sensitive scalp make me itch, break out, etc. more) comb it out and not only does that work more of the shampoo through BUT that also helps to straighten before adding the conditioner to lessen it knotting when both go in! Also, while I do not cosplay I would recommend the baby detangler for the wigs as it contains no silicone and/or other "hair stripping" and/or "color stripping" chemicals that could damage the synthetic wig unlike the horse hair detangling spray. Some of my friends with longer hair go so far as to step out of the shower after a shampoo and brush their whole hair out and use their straightener and then go back in and do the conditioner portion and I admit I did try that once and it did make it more manageable but for my hair all of that heat makes my hair just too dry and scalp just too itchy and annoying, so I just stick to combing after shampooing and then after I condition spray my hair and comb it out and straighten after my full shower. It has cut down what used to be ALMOST 3 HOURS even with hooking and pulling my thick long hair to 30! Also, every other day I ONLY condition and so 4 days a week I just condition to the maximum amount of time stated on the bottle's directions and then three days a week I shampoo and condition! It has also caused me to give up the medicated shampoo I thought I would be dependent on forever as a "booster" after my favorite shampoo/conditioner (the Head and Shoulders Sensitive Scalp bottle) was discontinued and their other "close" formulas do not work for my hair type and the "fragrances/dyes/etc." they use in them cause skin issues for me (their eucalyptus one caused me to lose half my face once and I have a nut allergy so I can't use the almond one for Dry Scalp).
Try it! I was 12 when I first made a cosplay. I'm 15 now and am still in love with the hobby. you get to meet lots of cool and loving people along the way. If you need help getting started, feel free to reply to this. I WILL respond. :)
Evie Nardozze same, before ik what cosplay was I’ve always wanted to dress up as different characters from movies and shows, but though I’d be weird if I did that cuz I thought ppl would think something’s wrong with me. But now ik cosplay and one day ima do it😁
I had just recieved a really badly maintained wig, even though it was actually a pretty good one. I had no idea what to do but this really helped me out, thank you.
Another tip for curling wigs that are made low quality fibers is to use boiling water. After the curlers are in place use boiling water to drench each hair section ( carefully over a sink!!), allow to dry completely before removing curlers. It will set the curl a little stronger than usual and is often used on dolls for resetting the curl to their frizzy tangled hair. :)
Another tip to mention is when storing your wigs, braid them to prevent harsh tangling whether you’re packing for a con, or wont be wearing it for a while. On another note, I did this tutorial with my Miku wig pieces, and it worked so good for the 2 days I cosplayed as her. Then I just kinda threw it to the side lol. I’m horrible at wig care sometimes. uwu
I used to have crazy long hair like that and I used that hook and pull method on my own hair to prevent breaking! My hair didn’t usually get that tangled (god I can’t even imagine) but every now and then I’d get knots like that. That method works even on your own hair if you ever need it!!
You can pluck the hair where the plastic scalp is, put concealer on on the scalp so it matches your skin. It will help a little bit, or just wear a hat.
if your wig is synthetic, wetting the hair (soaking it not just getting it damp) before straightening can help de frizz hair even more and lower the risk of damaging the wig
Iwasaka Miyuki I work weekends now, though, so it's become a task to find time to do this! plus I have to not be paying for two apartments and near-constant car repairs! but I need my wigs in july, so I HAVE to do it!
2:42 if you have the straps on the back inside of the wig (they are used for fitting the wig around your head) you can snap them together under the wig like a helmet
THANK YOU for stating the safety precaution of using the "horse and mane detangling" spray of it being super slippery on surface of the floor! I used this stuff on one of my very first cosplay wigs (hatsune miku) when I started cosplaying years back to help detangle the clips and I sprayed a lot on that stuff on the fibers over wood floor. The next day I walked by the area that I was styling at and about fell on my back within a second because the floor was so slippery! 😱😱 I even tried using it over carpeting to avoid falling but that stuff even makes your carpet slippery too! Lol this stuff is awesome but I've learned to be careful of covering the floor before spraying this stuff.
Hope Loves UA-cam wtf you put fabric softener in your real hair? Hell is wrong with you? Get a trim and dry-oil your hair so it stops tangling. I've had hair long enough to sit on and even after swimming or moshing and headbanging it wasn't impossibly tangled.
same! When i got a long wig everyone just kept telling me to throw it out if it got tangled like that, my mom eventually threw it out without asking me..
Jesus Christ I thought this was gonna be like a normal tutorial but it ended up making my lungs hurt from laughter. "Stiff enough to slap the shit out of someone if the touch you inappropriately at an event" I'm dead xD
HOLY WATER LOL IM WEAK I love your channel! Super informative and you've got a really funny personality. I have a question though - which would you prefer more? The fabric softener and water method or the mane and tail spray? Thanks so much!

Fantastic tutorial! I use a similar technique for my wigs as well, but I never knew how to prevent tangles!! I recommend using "The Wet Brush" for detangling because that brush is awesome! Also, a steamer is also great for defrizzing!!~ Thanks again for an awesome tutorial!
I don't even cosplay and I dont even have a wig. I dont know what I'm doing here. I was watching this with the thought that I could probably use these with my long ass hair. Love this video. Really satisfying. :00

This and another tutorial for making wigs out of wool/yarn makes me wanna make wigs and convince my friend to go to cons with me, she's been to one before and I haven't. Though I'd not be cosplaying, I couldn't do that while shes went as one of the Hitachiin twins before
The way my jaw dropped when she said amino lmao. I’m just now looking for videos and this was a top result and omg I didn’t realize how old the video was when I clicked
Yukino Neno my yuno gasai wig is fr hell I tried laundry detergent and conditioner but I realized I was using a regular brush XD but I used leave in conditioner and it kinda worked but I think what she did would help ;-;
I just wanted to thank you for this video. These tips helped me completely recover and revitalize a wig that had been shoved in a costume box for over 15, maybe even 20, years. It's still damaged at the ends because it's old and it was tossed around for so long, but now it's straight and tangle-free and I can restyle it to use it. Thank you for this tutorial!
This is amazing looks so nice. Sadly mine didn't turn out that nice. And yours seemed more tangled 😭😭they look nicer but definitely not as neat as yours look. But this is definitely life saving!
when i de-frizz and straighten synthetic hair that's not heat resistant, i get the fibers very wet before straightening them on the lowest heat setting.. that way the water helps to spread and diffuse the heat, and it's a lot less likely to burn.
Fantastic - bought a wig on eBay, it was far more tangled than the photos suggested. I thought it was pointless but tried your method - it’s like new now! I’ve never done it before. Thanks 🙏
I almost threw away an old cosplay wig cause it was in such bad shape but I soaked it for a day and then used a straight iron. What worked amazing well and surprised me was flat ironing over the tangles to get rid of some of the frizz and then working through the tangles. The wig isn't perfect but it looks so much better! Thanks!
Excatly. I allways use iron for straightening none heat resistant synthetic wigs, and it works wonders, you don't have to worry about frying it up or anything.
Thank you for this! Here I am a middle-aged white dude who never thought I would need a tutorial like this, but this totally saved my bacon trying to recover my daughters cosplay at the last minute!
This is very helpful! Thank you for making this video! Any chance you have one on cutting or styling wigs for cosplay? I'm new when it comes to using them...
I was in desperate need of a tutorial to help detangle my Tsuyu Asui wigs. As you can imagine the wig is very long and can easily be tangled. I experimented with steaming my wig and I successfully detangle the entire wig and added her hair oil to keep its beautiful natural straight hair. I just want to thank you so much for this wonderful tutorial, I sent this video to every of my friends who are cosplayers drag queens etc! This video saved my life thank you so much! 💫💕

Skylar Elliott it works so good it’s literally amazing
Most experienced cosplayers use it for that lmao
I use it on my wigs and on da pony
I've heard of girls just using it for their head hair as well so I guess it's just good for hair in general

Very true! Make sure you're wig or hair extensions are heat-friendly, though, or they may become a matted, melted mess.
If you use cold water after the boiling it'll set the hair in place stronger

Do u rinse it out with water or leave the original stuff in?? Before u start to untangle?? And then rinse it out after ur done?? Idk..

Thanks for this! I can finally get in my tsuyu, kokichi, monika, renge and yuri cosplay!
Who else is scrolling through the comments to see if it really works??????
Mourin N World me
This woman is the only person that I trust on this planet.
This has helped me so much I have to old wigs that I think would fit some characters perfectly but they're tangley as crap now I can finally fix that
I just wanted to thank you for this video. These tips helped me completely recover and revitalize a wig that had been shoved in a costume box for over 15, maybe even 20, years. It's still damaged at the ends because it's old and it was tossed around for so long, but now it's straight and tangle-free and I can restyle it to use it. Thank you for this tutorial!
This is amazing looks so nice. Sadly mine didn't turn out that nice. And yours seemed more tangled 😭😭they look nicer but definitely not as neat as yours look. But this is definitely life saving!
I like to watch this video casually and occasionally
Omg I love how you said "stuff enough to slap the shit out of someone if they try to touch you inappropriately" I love you! ❤️
Yay for you!
I might actually survive my first con and cosplay thanks to this video! Very much appreciated😸❤️🙏🏻
This tutorial is legit saving my Rapunzel wig. Bless you for making it (I'm excited to use it for my other wigs too!)
the hook and pull blew my mind!! this was so helpful, time to get started on fixing up my collection haha
This is literally the best synthetic wig care video I’ve ever seen! Thank you so much!!
Do you know how thankful I am for your channel? hOLY
The hair gel description is the best part of this! That and how incredibly helpful this tutorial is to begin with.
Just bought a lower quality, 5ft long straight wig, going to try ghis!! Hopefully it works for a wig this long!
Ohmygod thank you! I was so close to ordering a new Junko wig
I needed to fix my wig for my trans friend! She’s gonna be so happy!
WE STAN QUEEN AND SUPPORTIVE FRIENDS!!! send also her all my support !!!!!!!!
"But stiff enough to slap the sh*t out of someone is they try to touch you inappropriately."
Best. Sentence. EVER.
u saved my jinx's wig and my life
when i de-frizz and straighten synthetic hair that's not heat resistant, i get the fibers very wet before straightening them on the lowest heat setting.. that way the water helps to spread and diffuse the heat, and it's a lot less likely to burn.
"Make sure it is stiff enough that you slap the sheet out of anyone that touches you An appropriately" BWAHAHAHAHAHAH😂😂😂
this has SAVED MY WIGS! thank you so much for enlightening me and helping me, i’m blown away at the difference 😱😱😱
Love the tips you shared! It would be more convenient if you could list down the items you've used in your description box next time. Thanks!
Glad you love them :D Good idea, updated the list in the description box!
Fantastic - bought a wig on eBay, it was far more tangled than the photos suggested. I thought it was pointless but tried your method - it’s like new now! I’ve never done it before. Thanks 🙏
i wish i found this tutorial when i still don't know how to repair my wig. learn it the hard way lol
Ve Omo would you recommend warm water or cold?
I almost threw away an old cosplay wig cause it was in such bad shape but I soaked it for a day and then used a straight iron. What worked amazing well and surprised me was flat ironing over the tangles to get rid of some of the frizz and then working through the tangles. The wig isn't perfect but it looks so much better! Thanks!
OR YOU CAN ALWAYS USE CLOTHE IRON ON SYNTHETIC SETTING TO FIX NON HEAT RESISTANT WIGS.
I was wondering that, actually! It's basically just a larger, single-sided hair straightener, and is something most people own already.
Excatly. I allways use iron for straightening none heat resistant synthetic wigs, and it works wonders, you don't have to worry about frying it up or anything.
Thank you for this!
Here I am a middle-aged white dude who never thought I would need a tutorial like this, but this totally saved my bacon trying to recover my daughters cosplay at the last minute!
This is very helpful!
Thank you for making this video!
Any chance you have one on cutting or styling wigs for cosplay?
I'm new when it comes to using them...
Try Arda Wigs's channel or site! They've got some helpful tuts.
i'm- the hook and pull method is gonna save so many of my wigs- i've never seen anyone do that ever thank you
I was in desperate need of a tutorial to help detangle my Tsuyu Asui wigs. As you can imagine the wig is very long and can easily be tangled. I experimented with steaming my wig and I successfully detangle the entire wig and added her hair oil to keep its beautiful natural straight hair. I just want to thank you so much for this wonderful tutorial, I sent this video to every of my friends who are cosplayers drag queens etc! This video saved my life thank you so much! 💫💕
Also you can get amino for communities like talking about black Butler and attack on Titan so I would recommend amino 😄🙃😸👌
Y'all be combing ur wigs while I'm sitting here combing mah cat
omg finally a video which really really helps me *_* thank you very much
“Stiff enough to slap the sh!t out of someone if they try to touch you inappropriately” this made me laugh ! I loved this video!
