Where to buy Kagamine Len(Blonde) Wig?
Post By john9815. 29/11/12, 04:05 pm
Well I'm a little weary of where to buy a Kagamine Len wig from. As I've heard heaps of mixed reviews about costumes being horrible quality and such. Which is why most people just make it themselves as it's better and what cosplay really is. So basically I'm a bit lost on what type of wig to get and where. For those of you who listen to Vocaloid or perhaps have seen other people cosplaying as Kagamine Len what not. Would have a better idea of what I'm talking about, but any suggestions or shop links of where I can order a Kagamine Len wig would be helpful thanks. Also it would have to arrive by 26/01/2013 because that's when Ronin is and I don't plan on missing out :O

eBay is fantastic for finding things as long as you stick to reputable sellers that ship to nz. (and i recommend getting a paypal account if you have access to a credit card. it is safer) if not you could try trademe. you might get lucky.
Maybe check out tutorials on wig styling and see if it is something you think you can do and then just get a short blonde wig Very Happy

and because i'm apparently an insomniac here are some links Razz

That looks like a good wig!

Ebay is always a good place to look.

A good wig fibre to go for is kanekalon, which is quite popular, heat resistant, etc. I'm not saying others are bad, just that kanekalon is a definite good one xD

Also, a lot of ebay wig stores do actually ship to nz even if the shipping says it doesn't, you just have to ask them, lol.

Oh I see. I was getting a little worried as to whether the wig I got was of good fiber/quality. First time shopping on eBay so yeah. I normally buy stuff from chinese and USA based websites so.. bleh. Thanks for the confirmation on that though :)

Well the wig is from China, so it's pretty much a Chinese store anyway. Most of the time you can tell the quality just by looking at the wig. Not too shiny, etc things like that.

Looks like you have to style that wig yourself though

whoops just realised one of the links doesnt send to nz. last time i search that late Razz This looks like a good one and its from moe mall so you have a company's name behind it if anything goes wrong (it shouldnt. i dont want to freak you out). This is going to be so much fun. I cant wait to see you all dressed up Very Happy
