Choosing a cosplay wig
Match the shape before the colour
A character is recognised by the cut first: the fringe, the parting, buns or pigtails, how far down it falls. Get that right and a shade or two off still reads as the character. The style filters sort by exactly that.
Synthetic fibre and heat
Most costume wigs are synthetic, and standard synthetic fibre melts under a straightener or curling iron. Wigs marked heat-resistant take low heat (see the heat styling guide); for the rest, reshape with steam or hot water and let them set.
Fit and comfort
Costume wigs are one size and fit most adult heads of about 21 to 23 inches, with an elastic or adjustable inner cap. Child wigs are made smaller. Measure first with our cap size finder, and see the sizing guide for what to do above or below that.
Lace front or not
A lace front gives a hairline that looks like it grows from the skin, which matters for photos and up-close cosplay. A standard cap has a visible edge, which bangs or a hat usually hide.
