So for Katsucon I think I'm bringing four costumes (OH MY GOODNESS WHAT AM I THINKING) - Barbie from Toy Story 3, Tenel Ka from SW:EU, and then Santa and June from 9 Hours, 9 Persons, 9 Doors.

I have wigs for both Barbie and Santa, but I'm trying to figure out what to do about the hair for June and Tenel Ka. I was planning on getting my hair done before Katsucon (meaning it would be SUPARRRR RED) and then I would have to get a wig for June since her hair is brown. Then I was thinking of all my options and here is my STUPID DILEMMA and the things I have come up with that I can do.

1.) I get my hair done again, RED! like usual. Use my hair for Tenel Ka and get a wig for June.

2.) Get my hair done more of a brownish-red - try to pass it off for both Tenel Ka and June. Even though it would be a little too brown for TK and a little too red for June.

3.) Get my hair down a darkish brown, use it for June and get a wig for Tenel Ka - even though I would have no idea what kind of wig to get for TK. Hahah~ XD I would only be able to use a certain type for Queen Tenel Ka (fancy) since younger TK's hair is more OMG wild -- this is why it's easier to use my regular hair for her since I could style it however (whereas wigs are harder to change for different costumes).

HALP PLZ D: Obviously, 2 would be the cheapest and I love me some cheap, hehehe. BUT I DON'T KNOWWWWWW cause I don't want colors to be distracting from a costumes I've worked hard on. :\ Does that makes and sense? lolol i am a dork.

(I told you it was stupid. XDDD)

oh hey i used this icon for you

Not the cheapest option, but I would shoot for 1. You have great natural hair for TK, and having a new brown wig gives you future options for other characters. (This might also be me super used to you having TK hair all the time, though, aha.) Also, maybe ask around if somebody has a basic brown wig?

OH THAT CRAZY EIKICHI~ <33333

THANK YOU! 1 it is! A brown wig definitely gives me other options. :D And thank you so much~ <33 I am so critical about my hair all the time - especially in-costume (esp. TK costumes, lolol) so thank yoooou! :D

I completely agree with the comment above. A Tenel Ka wig would be really specific but a brown wig could probably be used for a bunch of different things in the future.

That is definitely true that a TK wig would have to be specific -- thank you! :D! And I know there have to be other costumes I could use a brown wig for. XDDD

I'm just going to echo the others. :) A brown wig has many uses.

YESSSSS! I know there have to be other costumes I wanted to do that I could use a wig like that for. XDDDD

Thank you!

I see my advice has already been stated! Cheap is always good, but I feel like it's much more difficult to replicate Tenel Ka hair than brown hair :)

Yeah, and trying to replicate a TK wig (which is much easier to do on real hair!) would either take lots of skill or lots of money -- time to get a brown wig! XD

Thank you! :D

The wig I was planning on bringing to use for Jaina would probably work for June, although it's a darker brown.

But yeah, I'd suggest the first option, like everyone said :)

OMG I AM EXCITED FOR YOU TO BE JAINAAAAAAAAAAAA EPIC SOLO TWIN FIGHT SHOTSSSSSSS~

Me too! I mean, it's like a random closet outfit but I never get to wear it because there's always another Jaina XD I can also bring the Myrkr jumpsuit I used for Tahiri since it's interchangeable with different wigs for different characters =P I won't have a purple lightsaber though, but blue's close enough, I figure XD
