Let me just say, this was my first time ordering from Arda and WOW! I have never gotten wigs that come in a BOX! WHAT?! My wigs always come in the bag type envelope, never a box! I was already impressed. It shows that they really, truely, care about the product being shipped safe, the wig not getting handled, even though through a bag I have gotten wigs that already have slight tangles because of handling! This was AWESOME!!!
Next, can we appriciate the HUMAN INITIALS? I person hand checked this, yes I know people process orders but I ordered from Gothic Lotita and they forgot one of my wigs. Sad, but if they did this, then I would have probably have gotten my other wig! But I really appriciate the double, or triple check they did and then initialed the packing slip showing that this "K.M." Physically check my package to make sure the correct wig style, color, and quantity was being sent to me!
Now it was time to inspect my wig, I always take 5 to ten minutes to do this, checking the wefts, to see how many there are, if I blow into the wig do you automatically see the weft or no? The feeling of the fibers, the shine of the wig, is it natural or is it too shiney and going to need a fabric softener and baby power bath? But LOOK AT HOW THEY WRAPPED IT! Most wigs come in a zip-lock bag, maybe a cardboard barrier and then a hairnet around the wig. This one was wrapped so tight, that there was no room for tangles to happen from leaving Arda and coming to me.
Lace View
And full view, This was my first lace front wig ever and I am really happy with it! It has to hair clips along the hair line to snap the wig into place, which is extremely awesome because one of my least favorite things to say to someone at a con is, "Is my wig okay?" The wig is also really thick and the fibers are also very thick and smooth!!
TIME FOR A SELFIE! I didn't clip the lace because I was nervous, but I had to try it on and I love it!! I felt like an Elf Elder! haha
Now it was time to style this bad boy to be fit for a Hylian Guard! Armed with 2 types off hairspray, scissors, and styling wax...I was ready!!
First things first, I had to do the braids! Very easy and fun, I love braiding!
A couple shots of my braids! I was really starting to feel like Impa and At this point I was hoping they stayed true to one of her first designs cause who doesn't love a lushious white pony tail?!
I had to cut quite a lot of length off of this wig, but I was ready to start making the hair spikes! and boy was that fun!
Here is my finished product, I really like it, I took a lot of time on it and I hope you guys like it too!!
And with the extra hair I had from cutting this wig, I was able to make myself some killer eyebrows!!!
