Anyways, today my second wig arrived in the mail! I was super stoked when I got home from rehearsals, because I was chattering endlessly to people about how excited I was for Anime North and the cosplays I was doing today. So I immediately took it out and tried it on, because when I get a new wig, that's just what I do. So I'm gonna share some photos of my two new wigs, and do some mini-reviews of the eBay sellers that I bought them from!
This was the first wig to arrive. This is for my Melty cosplay, which I am doing for the Saturday of Anime North. The eBay seller I ordered this from is cos-wig. They are located in China, and have 99.6% positive feedback!
The estimated shipping time was between 14 and 20 business days, and it got here in 13! So I was very pleased about that. The wig was packaged well too, in a bubble envelope. The wig was in a wig net, inside of a plastic bag, and came with one of those free black mesh hair nets, which I actually like quite a bit! The seller also packed a little business card in with the wig, which I really liked, since I'll remember to buy from them again! Also, shipping was free and this wig only cost me $24! It's a little thin in a few spots but it's not noticeable unless you are looking directly down on top of my head, hahaha. The fibers are really soft too!
The second wig to arrive is for my Gumi cosplay! This wig was from a seller on eBay named yucui2008. Another seller from China, with 99.7% positive feedback! This wig was $21, and came with free shipping as well.
The estimated shipping time for this one was 15 to 25 business days, and it came in 15, so spot on! This wig was a little less well packaged, as it was not mailed in a bubble envelope, but the bag they sent it in was made of a thick plastic and was well sealed! This wig also came in a wig net inside a plastic bag, and more black mesh hair nets! >:D wahaha. They also sent me a pair of earrings as a free gift, which was very nice! The wig looks a little bit different from the picture they had on the listing, but it's a marginal difference. It's also a little bit more lime-y in colour than I thought it would be, but I'm okay with that! This wig is also really soft, and looks like it'll be super easy to manage :D I'm just going to have to trim the longer parts in the front, since I find them to be a little too long.
I've always had good experiences ordering my cosplay wigs from eBay, although I've heard lots of peoples horror stories about ordering from eBay as well. But usually if they have a really high positive feedback percentage, they are pretty good! I only order if they have something in the 99% or higher ^^.
Anyway, that's all for today! I need to go to bed now, since second semester starts tomorrow (well, I guess today now LOL), and I've got class at 7:40 AM ;__;.
Good night y'all! I have another blog post planned for the next couple of days, so please look forward to it :D
(P.S. I started reading the Hunger Games books! Have any of you read them? What do you think about them??)
Thank you for this review :)
ReplyDeleteI just bought a wig from the second seller and was scared maybe the price was too good to be true since shipping is included. It's my first time cosplaying and being on a budget, can't risk wasting money.
I can't wait for it to arrive :)
