Cosplay Wig Spiking | Beginning Your Wig

- Hey everyone! Today I'm here with a small break down on how I start my wigs. I feel like this is something most people don't really talk about, or just assume people already know? But regardless, when thinking about what I covered in my other spiking tutorial, I realized that this is also a very important step in the wig creation process and wanted to cover it for you guys! This tutorial is mostly targeted at spiky wigs, but most of the advice can apply to other types of wigs too!
Anyways, I hope you find this helpful! Let me know if there are any other kind off tutorials you'd like to see and I'll do my best to demo them for you guys (given I have the supplies on hand haha)

how much would a kokichi oma wig be?
MY HERO ACADEMIA *inhuman noises*
Trash Y I AGREE ME TOO OMG I AM QUAKING I AM CRYING MHA IS MY LIFEEEEEEE
Honestly me whenever I hear someone mention it 😂💕
THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT I AM SAYING RIGHT NOW DHBDBSJSJIFUSOSKSK
Ever thought of doing a Shinsou wig tutorial? A boys hair is DEFYING gravity in a wavy majestic way and he's killin me!
lmfaooo mood
XD
Just throw it around, put it upside down and hair stray it. (just kidding but if you want to try it you can 👉👈)
.... comments like these are funny because my hair naturally looks like his lmaooooo...
But I have no idea how to make a wig do what my weird ass hair does smh
Lots of hairspray lol
"His hair is just an ambiguous mess" xD
Haha
Yeah
But how do I ger my hair like his??
Is it just like teasing it and hairspray??
I've got a different video that covers how to actually spike wigs: ruclips.net/video/qsMfIVK8Vqk/видео.html
Hopefully that helps!
pppffft I just kinda started dying, I watched this vid cuz Im gonna be styling a bakugo wig and he was an example XD
Samee
I have a shinsou wig and I had to style it. Its getting a little annoying tbf 😂
The deku wig looks amazing, just bought one from your page. Will probably get the bakugo one as well after I receive the first one. Can't wait to get it 😁
This is such a lifesaver!! The rubber band method is certainly going to come in handy in the near future !!
Thank you so much for making this tutorial !!
I’m doing a Tanjiro cosplay and it’s my first time cosplaying so if anyone has any tips I would love to hear!!
Oh my gosh I am also about to do Tanjiro and it's my first time costplaying as well! What a coincidence!
Speaking of bakugo, i saw a bnha fighting game on instagram, idk what its called or anything. Anyways, so maybe if someone could get screenshots of the model, we would have the official spikeyness!!
Unfortunately from what I can see of the screenshots from the game, it still somehow just looks like a mass of hair xD although with a more consistent shape so at least there's that! xD
There is a figure for him and Midoriya you could look at though! I personally didn't think they were close enough to the anime hair placement so I didn't use it as a reference but it might come in handy for someone else! :)
The game is “my hero ones justice”
I actually have that game, and trust me, his hair is still a COMPLETE mess XD
I'll be getting a wig for Kirishima from bnha in a few months. I was wondering if you had any suggestions on what wig from arda to get? I'm really new at this😣
If it were me, I'd personally get this one: www.arda-wigs.com/collections/lacefront-classic-wigs/products/morpheus-classic?variant=12470820798550
It's like a Jareth but in a lacefront, so you'll have a really nice hairline since his shows, but also a good spiking wig. Hope that helps!
thank you! i'm doing cosplay as deku and my wig is curly so i'm making it spike
thank you so much for making this video! it's a life saver!
THANKS I plan to use this for my Emma wig ( promised neverland) and this will be helpfull
pls make Killua Zoldyck wig too pls
yeah
I'm gonna be cosplay Tamaki Amajiki and I'm at a lost on how to style his wig. I have a feeling this will help me when the time comes and, I need to sit down and get it done.
Saaaaame. He is best shy boy 💜
Im literally going through the same process because he is *best boi*
exactly what i was looking for
i'd like to see how to style a tamaki amajiki wig
Thanks so much!! I was actually just struggling with my bakugou wig XD, this really helped me!
I want to style a wig for my Dabi cosplay from BnHA BuT i HaVe nO ExPeRiEnCe WhAtSoEvEr So Thanks for making dis video XD
How would i style a tamaki wig cus ive. Never spiked one and im struggling eith the video cus im 11 eheheh 🥺
And i don't have a stand 🥺im a beginner soo lol
Imagine if Uraraka touches their hair and that’s why it floats like that
Woah-
Yea I wanna be deku soon
Are you deku yet
I literally cannot I have been trying to freaking style this kokichi wig I bought off amazon and I’ve never had to style a wig before I’ve been crying for thirty minutes and need such bad help
I’m really nervous about cutting my Killua wig though cause I tried cutting one of my other wigs one time and I ruined it :(
I made a video on tips to cutting wig hairs if you'd think that would help! ruclips.net/video/pvqA7RIR7tU/видео.html
Cutting a wig is always nerve wracking the first few times you do it, but once you learn methods to make it look good its not so bad!
Instructions misunderstood, i ate the wig..
Im tryinbg to learn how to style wigs better. While this video is 5 years old its still just as helpful. This really helped me out. Im going to a con with 3 new cosplays and I had to style 3 wigs. For Sal Fisher from sally face i was able to just kinda make it messy and be creative but i struggle with exact spikes and oddly shaped bits so for my Reki Kyan wig its going to be a struggle especially since i have to add a headband into the mix. Your tip of sectioning out every spike before hand is SUPER helpful. I never thought about genuinely doing that because i figured id need loads of clips and supplies but nope! I used to be a rainbow loom kid too so ive got loads of small rubber bands lying around
Im hoping this comes out good for my deku wig thanks!
Yaaaas! I’m glad I’m not the only one that uses rubber bands for styling!! 😂 I’ve never seen anyone else do this and I’ve done it for years. It’s so handy!!!
Bakugo's scream be so funny to look at-
Me analyzing the base wigs because starting I'd the scariest step for me
I want to learn how to spike my wig like luffys from one piece
Why does Rui’s hair have to be so complicated?
I ordered a kokichi wig but it was kind of messy and It kind of looked like him? But not really, kind of bummed about it though
Oof, I need to do some spikes on mine (Im gonna do Denki cosplay) But I think that I'm going to make it worse ;w; (It's going to be a bit hard for me cuz I'm 13 year old kiddo ;W;)
You've got this!! Just take your time and it'll work out :) if you need any advice on the actual spiking, you can check out this video I made as a follow up to this one: ruclips.net/video/9fAoh2Mwba0/видео.html
Good luck!! I'm sure it'll go great :)
I’ve never styled a wig before and tried to once and only made it worse helppp I’m so bad
i'm here to learn how to spike my Axel wig, and then i found you doing roxas lmao
I wanna make a wig like the character in my profile pic with no experience at all. I’m probably going to mess up so bad but I’ll still try
I'm using this because I'm getting a deku wig for a con.
Do you use anything to keep the spikes in place, like gel or hair spray? and if not what's the best way of keeping it spiky throughout the day?
After styling I usually spray the whole wig down with 3-4 coats of the got2b glued freeze spray. After I'm done wearing it for the day I'll then touch it up with some more hairspray but it should only ever need a small touch up after every use
@@LunaLenCosplay Thank you for the help!
I want to do my oc and his hair has 1 medium spike 1 big spike and 1 medium spike in that order on the side of his head but he also has bangs kinda like todoroki how would I make those spikes say up?
I've got two other videos that might help you with that! Check out these and if you have any other questions feel free to ask!

Where are you from I like you so much 😊😊😊😊😊😊
How would you spike a long wig? I'm scared of cutting the hair wrong and messing it up
Depending how long the spike has to be and at what angle it is, you may need to use a support such as foam core/wire. If the spikes that are long, angle mostly downwards, you can probably spike them with just lots of teasing and hairspray.
I was thinking about that miniature it gonna be sims 😂
Ok who else searched up how to style a tamaki wi-
Thank you for this video :) But I have a question : after you did this separated spikes step, how do you proceed ? Cuting first ? Apply some hairspray first ? When do you remove elastics ?
I remove the elastics first, then cut and spike! If you want a more detailed explanation, I made another video you can find here: ruclips.net/video/9fAoh2Mwba0/видео.html
Wow, thanks for sharing it because I'm doing tutorials myself for wig making and may you and your watchers could be interested in as well 🎨
We're do you get the wigs from?
Or how do you get the wig all silky like??
I generally order from Arda wigs or Epic cosplay since I know their quality is consistent. Arda has a silky line, though I think its been getting smaller and smaller over the years. The classic line is still good, but you may need to use Mane & Tail or a silicone spray to try to stop it from tangling during use if its a long wig. Epic has much softer fibers all around, but again if its a long wig, I highly recomended spraying it down before use so its easier to brush out after wearing. I hope that helps!
What products do you use to keep the spikes
Thanks for your video~! i can try to set up my wig :3
I don’t have a comb-
You could look at the 3D model of bakugou from the game they made
I’m sorry but I think honestly if you wore the wigs instead of putting them on foam heads for your Etsy shop they would sell better because the foam heads you use kinda take away from how well styled the hair is
Thanks for the input! Unfortunately all of those only pictured on wig heads are wigs styled for a customer and not one of my personal wigs, and as such, I don't want to put their wigs on my own head for photos before sending it to them. (Not sure they'd like a slightly used wig if you know what I mean)
However the shop is doing really well and we make plenty of sales every month so I'm okay with that for now. Though I'll keep that in mind for the future!
Do you use hair spray bc I’ve been told to use it to make it stay
*I feel dum for asking this*
Don't feel dumb! Most cosplay wigs are synthetic so it can be hard to know what you can and can't use on them, since it's not human hair ^^
All that being said, yes I use hairspray! But I make sure that whatever hairspray I use doesn't have any oil in it, since oil can't be absorbed by the plastic fibers. I personally use got2b glued freeze spray, but any hairspray with "extra hold" should work well!
this video gave me hope lol thanks for uploading!
Yep I need help! Lol I need to know how to style a wig for my son's cosplay. I'm going to spell it wrong but it's Tomura Shigaraki (I know die hard fans are crying inside at my attempt to spell that) any advice? Or link to someone who has done a step by step? I'm new to this so anything is helpful
Do you use hair gel or spray to make the spikes stick?
Hair spray! :)
Plzz tell me where are you from
Do you need to use hair spray
thankyou yeeees
How do you keep your mannequin heads still on the table/desk?
I use my camera tripod handle as a stand. If need to keep it on a table, maybe some strong packing tape would work? Otherwise they do make wig stand holders for desks that clip right on!
This didn’t help me learn how to actually spike a wig. 😢
That's because this video: ruclips.net/video/qsMfIVK8Vqk/видео.html
and this video: ruclips.net/video/9fAoh2Mwba0/видео.html
cover those steps! :)
Oh thank god. Spikes are so hard. I wish I had this video sooner before I fucked up my wig
:( Luckily it was a cheap wig, so I didn't lose much from it.
Hi I’m pretty new to this and I’ve been wanting to try to cosplay killua for awhile now. Do you have any wig recommendations I’m not really sure where to start.
Hey there! For that wig I'd use either a Hansel from Arda Wigs or an Apollo from EpicCosplay in white as a base.
LunaLen Thank you!!!!!
ahh yes my dabi cosplay
How long would shipping take to northern Ireland
Shipping international priority usually takes 1.5 - 2 weeks
This definitely helped, as I’m going as Chapter 306 Deku for Halloween!
I'm getting my nishinoya wig soon! (haikyuu) would you have any tips of how to style his hair?
this was so helpful! thank you very much! also where did you buy Izuku's wig?
I got an Apollo in white from Epic Cosplay wigs and dyed it green using Rit Dyemore in peacock green :) (although I think they have some greens that might work if you don't want to dye it yourself!)
thank you very much! :3
What about when they don't have hairspray
You can always do just teasing, however, the final results are going to always be a bit more on the messier side (which isn't always a bad thing). That being said without hairspray, your style could fall out faster over time so I highly recommend if you don't have any, picking up a bottle somewhere
Hi! I'm doing an ururaka wig from bnha and I need help so do you have any advice?
im trying to style a wig into dabi's hairstyle
Me too
Can you do a Denki one?
I already have! :) ruclips.net/video/-QnuWTW2kd8/видео.html
I'm from UK
What type of brush is best for teasing?
I personally use a teasing brush that has soft bristles. That or a fine tooth comb should do the trick!
LunaLen Tysm!!
Can you make a Ciel phantomhive wig tutorial plzzzz
Thanks you so much! this really helped me ^^
Can I buy the Deku wig?
Her Etsy link is in the description
I love the bakugou kingdom hearts comparison 😄
THIS WAS *EXTREMELY HELPFUL*, THANK YOU!!!
I'm going as Asta, and had next to no idea what the blazes to do!
Can you make eren jaeger wig from attack on titan?
SORAAAAA
Thank you, that is going to be super helpful!!! : )
What supplies do you use to keep it in place?
I want an ONLY DEKU tutorial, please!
ruclips.net/video/6mCBDV_WLaA/видео.html
BAKUGOU
I can tell that your a fellow bakugou fan
Does this help for Tanjiro too?
Yes! Anything I covered in this video should help to start any wig project :)
@@LunaLenCosplay then thank you really much!
So, this is a really stupid question, but, does the wig head matter for styling? For example, if you have a feminine wig head, will the styling of the wig look different than if you styled it on a masculine wig head? Thank you so much if you reply!! ❤️
Not a stupid question! But short answer: not really.
Long answer: I personally use the male wig heads to style things because they are closer to an actual human head in size, so I can guess more accurately where things will fall on people's faces in general when styling things for other people. Since I started using the male heads, I now just use them when styling my own stuff as well, since the female heads are slightly titled and it bothers me now since I'm used to the male heads haha. But back before I used the male heads, I just styled the bangs or front laying hairs on my own head before styling the rest on the female head and everything turned out just fine! So no need to drop $10 dollars on a male head unless you plan on doing a ton of wig styling or you just really really want one. I personally love mine since they have the ears and better facial features to line things up with, but it's really up to personal preference! :)
LunaLen ~ Got it!! Thank you so so much for answering!! It means a lot!!
I don’t even have a wig. This just makes me happy :)
actually, i wanna make paper wigs.
People take this to seriously
What do you use to style it ?
what product do you use that forms the spike shape and to keep the hair in place?
Got2b glued freeze spray! I've got another video here that explains better: ruclips.net/video/qsMfIVK8Vqk/видео.html
You should do a Deku Wig tutorial.
You’re good at styling wigs!!
ayy I bought my bakugou wig from you!! XDD
Its amazing quality tho it was a bit pricey not gonna lie-
I appreciate the business!! :)
Though, yeah, those prices aren't for everyone, which is why I make these tutorials! But considering the time it takes me to make and cost of supplies added up, it was the most fair price I could make it ^^;
@@LunaLenCosplay Ahh I understand completely! I plan on making my own wigs in the future and these tutorials are very helpful so thank you! qwq
How do you get your wigs so fluffy looking? qwq I am kind of a dum dum
This video of mine goes into more detail on that: ruclips.net/video/9fAoh2Mwba0/видео.html
Basically at the end of the day, its just lots and lots of teasing to get them fluffy!
What do you use to spike your wigs??? They look great!
Got2b glued freeze spray and some clear tacky glue for the tips! :) And thank you so much!!
Where can I get that dummy head? Lol.
And what could I use to spike up/or style my wig?
I get my wig heads from Joanns, but I know you can get them at Hobby Lobby or off Amazon too. And I personally use got2b glued freeze spray for styling my wigs.
