Boo 😔

💵🤝

Maybe it was the plan all this time,, my genius strikes, truly 😔😔😔 also the wig was just being simmered basically LMFAO I DIDN'T EVEN USE A POT, IT'S A WHOLE ASS WOK THAT MY MOTHER DOESN'T WANT TO USE ANYMORE 😭😭😭

I'm cooked, I already hairsprayed it to death LMFAOO 😭😭 I WANTED TO COOK IT FOR LONGER BUT MY FATHER SAID IT'S BEEN TOO LONG (and he kept turning the fire down 💀) 😢😢😢 and now I'm in dorm, I can't do anything anymore before the event (in 4 days)💀💀

It's still subject to a few minor changes-- anyways, thanks for staying with me ✨ I'll post the whole cosplay after the actual event😁😁

So uh, all in all it turned out really great! Especially for a wig this difficult (imo) and it's also my first time doing anything like this. I've always had an ability to make things work out if it's considered arts and crafts enough, so maybe that's it? 🤔

I cut it a bit too short (I forgot the stand wasn't my actual head) but that doesn't really matter as I can tug it down more to the front. Yes the wig is still too blue, but I think it's fine. Could be worse 💀

With a cheap set of scissors that I bought, tiny hair straightener, and some hair spray-- I yolo-ed the entire thing. It took approx 5-7 hours for the entire process from the start to finish.

Anyways, I cooked it for approx 40 mins. You can see that the colour is too light, but I decided that it wasn't too bad and you can still recognise it as Momo. Seeing as in some artstyle, Momo's hair could be colored like this too or specifically in some lighting.
I blow dried it for 15-25 mins.

I followed the tutorial to the best of my ability. In hindsight it couldn't be exact anyways because of the difference in hair volume

I went off with one pack of navy blue and black.

THIS WAS MY FIRST MISTAKE ‼️I OVERESTIMATED THE DYE'S POWER. I SHOULD'VE BOUGHT 2 BLACKS.

But seeing as there's barely any synthetic dyes around here, I guess it couldn't be helped.

First of all I bought a wig base in light blonde/bleached blonde/ broken white, you call it. And went off to search for synthetic dye, specifically for polyester. Regular hair dye doesn't work on wigs since they're not real.

It's very helpful, gave me an idea of where to start. I tried to follow to the last details but seeing the differences in our skill and equipment (not to mention wig quality) it's obvious why I couldn't get it right

To start off, I used this guide 👇

I think Karasu Tengu is more similar to old era re:vale Yuki than current Yuki, but you can still see the similarities ✨
