  • How to put on a wig for cosplay and how to wear a wig for cosplay. This anime cosplay wig tutorial for beginners will show you how to put on a wig cap, secure your hair, put on a wig, and secure the wig so it doesn't fall off. I go over the difference between netted and nylon wig caps as well as different style of braids to wear under wigs. I show you all of this by putting on my Ibuki wig. These methods are easy and perfect for beginner anime cosplayers.

      I'm sorry that it matted so bad. I've heard that about Ibuki wigs. I wonder what it is that makes them tangle easily. Super long wigs are more prone to tangles. I'll see how this one holds up. 🌸

    This is the first time I have long hair for a cosplay (I usually cosplay characters with a mask/whiffle) and was starting to panic.
    I thought I would either have to learn pin curls, which I was struggling with, or go back to a whiffle.
    But this will allow me to keep my long hair and I greatly appreciate it.

I've started probably 4 or 5 different videos but the girls are too "prissy" and was honestly annoying me that their vids were 15-25 min long with nothing but talking about the clothes they have on and all this other junk, but then you came up and I saw that you have the same stuff for the wig that I do and also your video is to the point so thank you very much, I hope I can speak for all of us that's it's much appreciated 👍👍👍
