Description A long time ago I did this:

I hope this new tutorial is more helpful and brings even better results! Best of luck, fellow Yusei cosplayers! :3

Even if you're not planning on styling a Yusei wig, I inserted lots of tips and tricks that can be useful for all sorts of wigs with crazy spikes~

Much thanks to and for helping me take pictures when my hands were full XD

Was really helpful for styling my Byakuran wig, I've never done one before, and while I didn't have to do much styling, your spiking tips were an excellent help. Fabric glue would have never occurred to me.
Thanks so much !

Keiji-no-Yami [2011-09-21 06:00:07 +0000 UTC]

Can I ask you how much the wig shifts when you put it on? Or are you suuuper careful so that the spikes don't split apart when the wig is stretched??

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Malindachan In reply to Keiji-no-Yami [2011-09-21 07:01:54 +0000 UTC]

The glue really helps keep the spikes from splitting up. And Arda wigs have a nice, larger wig cap to work with, so it doesn't need to stretch as much.

I use bobby pins in a few spots behind my ears and at my temples to keep the wig in place. They attach the wig to my wig cap.

Keiji-no-Yami In reply to Malindachan [2011-09-21 21:01:11 +0000 UTC]

Alright thanks 8D

What I really like about your wigs is that they look so clean, no loose hairs sticking up all over the place. I can't figure out how to get that in my own, but maybe I'll try the fabric glue..

Very noice <3 though I won't be attempting a Yusei wig for a long time XD but I do want to cosplay him sometime in the future and styling a Yusei wig is like a little goal of a thing that I just "have to do" as a cosplayer for myself for some reason ~_~
