Description taken on my phone... lol didn't put it on at this point cuz it was still drying from hairspray etc.

the pineapple bits are 'free standing'... lol
meaning that i teased that part jrock style, so that it stands up on its own. Then after i positioned the random fuzz how i wanted, and shaped some of it, I trimmed it sommore, and then i froze it in place with the hairspray.

The the bangs i trimmed also, and thinned out slightly.

...ho snap, I have that tutorial! xDD I never thought of using it for my Chrome wig, though. Huh. Maybe I should buy a new one, especially since mine is so bright.

Still love it, by the way. One of the MOST accurate Chrome wigs I've seen.

EXACTLY. The only tutorial I've ever thought of using is the one for the bodysuit, and that won't be used until next year sometime. Man, I need to start thinking of wider ideas xD;

Aww, thank you! :3 I can't wait to see your finished Chrome cosplay. It'll look awesome.
