Wigs for Bambicrony?

http://formydoll.com/

so no one knows?

 

No idea - I think wigs described as "size 5" would be too small. Formydoll lists their own tiny as having a 5-inch head though they might mean wig size. A 6-inch head is an inch larger. And I would think even smaller Bambicrony heads must be close to 6.

I bought Bree an Antina's size 6 style W-143 wig on Ebay. It lets the ears show nicely. This is the light blond in this style - I guess it's not as light as the light blond in some other styles (or they sent me dark blond by mistake). It has cute wispy ringlets along the nape.

Ok first off..
Caddyvamp:O.O! Ohhh my gosh! Glow in the dark? Sooo kewl!!! Me wants it!!!

Anyways.... I was wondering if anyone has a leekeworld wig that they did buy, and have tried to "fix" it so it will fit. I mean isnt there something that can be done? Maby sow a elastic band into it to tighten it up? Or are they just really really huge? I really want one specific one from them and I was hoping that there maby was some fixer upper...

Can anyone show me what the problem is maby? Post a picture of your baby wearing a leeke sized wig from Leekeworld ofcourse?

((I am basically asking to see if the wig really goes *nom nom nom* and totally eats the head up or if its just loose and huge on it.))

 

Anybody know where to find a brown pig-tailed wig for a BC? Or at least a straight haired wig that reaches to the shoulder blades? I've gone to all the links in this thread, but I can't seem to find anything suitable. :/

 

Do you mean braids or ponytail-style pigtails?

Kemper seems to be out of braids wigs in an appropriate size. But keep and eye on them - they might get one back in stock:

And re Leekedoll wigs - maybe PM this member who seems to have tried a number of Leekedoll wigs on her BC - some fit, some don;t:

Well,not neccissarily braids,but something like it. Thanks for the links,though. I'll keep an eye out for one.
Something like this BC wig:

I'd get this one, but I'd prefer a brown one.

 

Not cheap but you could preorder one of these long straight Cancan wigs:

Hm,I may just do that as I could always chop off the excess. Thanks for the help, Carolyn. ^^

 

BTW - I have had my best luck trimming wigs with a real hair scissors. I have one pair of hair scissors I have never used on cloth or paper - just hair. It worked the best. I used a clean tall bottle as a wig stand and just crumpled aluminum foil into a ball on and around the top.

I'll have to pick up some hair scissors next time I'm out,then. Thanks for the advice. ^^

 

I just got a boatload of wigs in. Some of the small ones fit on the BC Roko Selmada brought over. My camera broke today but I believe she got a few good pics of the one we tried on her.

 

Finally, i put some shots of my dolls with different wigs, mostly leeke.

this is of the players, in their default wigs

pink pepe - Themis, wearing a pink BC wig
leeke sweet - Miaka, wearing a leeke wig
Unoa L-bi (no name yet) wearing a leeke wig (which is why he's here)
LSG Roko (no name yet) wearing a wig I got from Rillystar (she has this in black and some other styles the same size)
leeke joy boy - Akira, wearing a leeke wig
these next shots are just them swapping and changing wigs. all wigs, except the the two mentioned above are leeke

the leeke wigs all fit, but for some the bangs would need trimming and i'd recommend velcro.


and this last one is of the 4 yo sized ones in cute volks kitty wigs

 

Misty wears a Leeke wig because I'm picky on hairstyle and she must have curly white ponytails =_= Bambicrony doesn't sell them in white:



I don't really know how to describe the problem...other than the wig being way large when I first tried it on. Like the wig doesn't even stay on her head and slips right off. Also, the bangs completely cover her face, making it look like what some has described as "swimming in the wig."

What I did do is tightening the ponytails--it seemed to pull the wigcap tighter on either sides. I also made her wear a thick rubber band underneath the wig. The bangs are trimmed and thinned in the front as well. So now the wig stays on. I still don't particularly like how the bangs stick out though.

So in conclusion I'd say Leeke wigs can work, but you need some method to tighten the headcap (ie. loose hairstyles might be more difficult to deal with than something that's tied). I'm looking for a shorter white wig because I just...can't deal with the massive amount of flyaways >_> anyone has pointers to a white double-ponytail wig for BC?

 

That has to be the cutest Misty Blue I've seen yet. And there is a lot of cute out there--I love how you styled her!

 

I just bought a whole slew of wigs and found that 5-6 size wigs from Monique work quite nicely on my girls.

 

I bought some Leeke wigs 6-7, too, and yes, they are definitely big on my LSG Pepe and MB Kumi... But I think I will try and tighten them with elastic, since I really like the color and the styles!

I tried a Monique Gold 6-7 and it fit OK.

Aquire 6-7 fit, (although it had a kind of bump at the top--where the hair was too thick).

Darkmothflame's fur wigs fit nice and snug, since she puts lots of elastic in.

Have a 6-7 mohair wig from Pam/sewaddicted and the cap is skin and not elastic, so it's a bit loose. Can also probably be fixed by sewing some elastic in the cap.

 

I am going crazy with Farore´s wig. I have been on the marketplace since february looking for a straight white wig with some bangs. (aka one of the fullsets as I know no others) but no one will sell

I got one from leeke but it´s really huge.... I have thought about cutting a little triangle off the headcap and then sewing it back.. but not sure about that, waht do you think????

The wig does not even stay on, it falls over and eats up the head. I can fix it a little with a hairband...but not the way to go...Even if I get it to stay it looks huge and eats up all the faceup than can barely be seen


Man I wonder where they got those fullset wigs...looked al over but there´s no way of finding white ones.. no one will sell and I already have a girl wearing fur... don´t want any more for now

You´re lucky you got the one from Snowdrop for Nightwish, april... why on earth did´nt they make grey fullsets..

 

Hmmm... I'm not sure if cutting a wig-cap would work, since the threads holding the hair in might come loose.

I'm going to try sewing in elastic. And will maybe trim the hair a little so it's not in the eyes. Or maybe try styling it a bit. Maybe people in the Customization part of the forum will know what to do?

Yes, it's hard to find just a long straight Milk-colored wig in the right size... Monique and Cancan wigs fit nicely, but they don't have Milk color.

The Fullsets were lovely. a little expensive for me, though! So not sure if I'd have got a full-set LSG if they offered... but maybe! The wigs and shoes and outfits were so nice!!!

 

I´ll try the elastic thing too..that was my backup plan ...and seems much less dangerous XD

Knowing this style/size of wigs are so hard to get.. I would´ve snatched a grey fullset in a heartbeat..if there´d been one
