[goldporces]

Hello, I recently made a Crowley wig and decided to write a guide on the process. Here is a link to a google doc if this form of writing is more comfortable to read for you: here

Since I’m showcasing my wig and the job I’ve done on it, I wanted to write a small guide/explanation of how I worked on it, how long it took me to make it, materials, costs, resources, etc.

This has been a very interesting learning experience since it’s my first time working with a wig. I am by no means a very experienced cosplayer and I am writing a general guide for other beginners. Feel free to make suggestions and correct the information on this post.

What is the base wig? I worked with a wig from Amazon. - 16$

I simply searched “Red Wavy Wig” and this was one of the initial results that I liked. I thought that the base wig would be enough to look close to canon. When it arrived, I immediately realized that it had too much volume and I needed to do something about the fact that it didn’t have a prominent hairline (Pic 1). It had so much hair that it was impossible to brush it out to at the very least straighten it or make it less voluminous. Not saying that Crowley’s hair can’t be that, it’s just that it was so awkward I couldn’t stand it. This wig is advertised to be a Black Widow wig, and her hair is longer in the front than in the back, which is just not the case for Crowley. In addition, this wig was just.. Cheap. I get it - I wanted to save some money and got the quality I paid for, but I would DEFINITELY recommend buying a better wig if you don’t have the time/money/resources to clean the hair that would shed from it. Otherwise, the advantage of this wig is that I didn’t need to buy a second one for wefts - I straight up took the wefts off of it and then reattached them on the hairline. This is not a common practice and a lot of cosplayers recommend buying two wigs for this reason, but I risked it and the end result still came out fine. If you are not sure in your de-wefting skills, buy a second one, but prepare to deal with double the shedding.

How did you fix it?

1. Creating a fake hairline. 

In fact, this post is what inspired me to work on my wig. I was very impressed with OP’s wig, specifically its hairline and sideburns. The hair looks thick and very sturdy. Their explanation of the work is very good, but I am very hands-on and a visual learner, so this video was very helpful to figure out what materials I needed and the steps on making the hairline. For my wig, I bought the following materials:

Glue gun from Michaels - 2.99

Glue sticks from Michaels - 3.99

Red Felt by Loops and Threads from Michaels - 8$ (you get a heap of felt that you honestly don’t need, unless you’re attempting to cut the hairline out of it multiple times).

Cleargel Tacky Glue from Michaels - 2.79$

Hairclips from Dollar General - 2$

TreSemme Hairspray (here) - 3.39$

Hair Gel (mine, but you can use any - this one is for my personal use) - 4.7$

Hairdresser’s scissors (optional, but I REALLY recommend using them instead of using office scissors to cut hair. ..mine) - 8.99$

Quilting Pins from Michaels (or any pins, I just took the cheapest ones) - 3.99$

Mannequin Head from Michaels, mine - 5.99$

Note: Unfortunately, the one I linked is tilted slightly to the side, which prevented me from making the hairline perfectly straight and symmetrical, so I recommend buying a mannequin head that is straight. Michael’s sells one for 8.99$.

Seamripper from Michaels - 6$, but you can and should order a cheaper one on Amazon for 2.99$.

Hair rollers (mine) - 11.99$. 

Note: This cost is going to be excluded from the final cost because I am 100% sure it is possible to find cheaper hair rollers that look like the ones I linked. I personally found similar tube-shaped rollers at a Dollar Tree for about 2$, but I can’t link it or provide a correct cost, so I do not want to mislead or provide inaccurate information.

Wig stand from Amazon (mine) - 9.99$

Note: You will need a stand that is sturdy and will not move at all while you are working. You’re going to lose your mind if you try working with something that is constantly moving away from your hands. I link mine because unlike some other wig stands, this one clamps on the side of the table and will not move at all while you are working.

Follow the attached guide on how to make the hairline. Here are some tips on working with glue and hair that I learned along the process:

1. Do not under any circumstance start working without figuring out how to dispose of the hair that is going to inevitably fall off the wig. 

2. Put on some clothes that you don’t care about and leave them in the place where you work, if you can, because hair is going to stick to your clothes and you absolutely do not want to carry synthetic hair around your house.

3. You can put a plastic bag or a trash bag under the working space or under the wig as you work with the hair. If you are using a mannequin head stand with clamps, simply clamp it on top of the bag on the table - this way, the hair will not fall on the floor.

4. The video guide mentions using a hairdryer to dry the glue faster. Utilize it, because it does help with the process tremendously, but the quickly dried glue may create more residue on the hair than it would if it would dry naturally over time. In my opinion, it was very much worth it and saved a lot of time.

5. As you are working through the gluing process, you may notice that there is some glue residue on top of the hair pieces. Personally, not a huge fan, because it makes the hairline look unnatural and ugly. To fix this, take a q-tip or a piece of paper towel, wet it with water and carefully swab the glued down pieces, then dry them with a paper towel, then wet them again, and so on and so forth. Some strands of hair might stick out - that is okay, just be careful and stop when you feel like it might mess with the glue too much.

2. Cutting the hair

Use a reference picture of Crowley to know the pattern of his hair. Generally speaking, his hair is shorter at the front and longer in the back. It is slicked back and has medium volume to it. 

Use references and guide on how to cut hair (here, here). 

General tip for cutting is never attempt to blunt cut (cutting hair horizontally) unless you know what you’re doing and it is the finish you’re going for. Work slow and remove smaller pieces of hair before removing bigger ones. You will gradually build up confidence about removing 

3.  Styling the hair

After I cut the hair, I was still kind of unsatisfied with how it looked. I decided to use hair gel to brush the hair back on the sides and on the top. After that, I used some hairspray to make it stick, and kind of just pat the hair down on the top, pressing it to the foam head. That helped to reduce the volume on the top.

4. Curling the hair

After cutting the hair, I decided it would be a good idea to re-curl it, since it lost some of its pattern. 

You shouldn’t attempt curling synthetic hair with an electric hair curler, because it is a fire hazard and can also ruin the hair. Use bobby pins, bigoudi, or hair rollers. I curled the hair on this wig by using hair rollers. First, I sprayed the hair with water, then I put the hair on the rollers, and then I used the hair dryer to kind of make the hair stay in this shape and I left it overnight. This video shows how to use a steamer and bobby pins to curl the hair in a similar fashion. 

After all of these steps, you should be done with the main process! You are welcome to do any other adjustments, the floor is yours. I chose to stop here because at this point I have been working on this wig for a long time and I was in a time crunch. If I had more time, I would modify the hairline more and probably define the curls, but I was fine with the look of my end result because I was going for a early 2000s Crowley.

Total cost: 75.84$ (without the hair rollers), assuming that you didn’t have any of the materials above. 

How do I wear it?

I recommend using hair gel to put your own hair in your wig cap, as it is going to secure everything in place. In the 2000s Crowley look, Crowley sort of has his ears visible, so I would say try to put the hair of the wig back behind your ears. Be careful not to show too much of your hairline though. 

Additionally, since my end result hairline came out looking a bit harsh, I like to use some orange eyeshadow around the hairline. Just take a q-tip or a brush and gently dab it near the hairline after putting on the wig, and hopefully it will make it seem more natural.

How long does this take?

I worked on the hairline for about 4-5 hours for 4 days straight. I worked slow because I wasn’t sure and I had to reattach the hair multiple times, so I would say it took me 16-20 hours total. Add about an hour for cutting and additional one for styling, and you’d get 18-22 hours total.

Is it worth it?

Honestly? It is all up to you.

If you are satisfied with your wig as it came, you are very welcome to use it for cosplay, but I strived to achieve some accuracy and dedicated myself to this little project. 

The best part?

…The wig is not for me! :D In fact, I am going to be cosplaying Aziraphale. This wig is actually for my girlfriend who cosplays Crowley with me. We will probably post our couple cosplays together in the future. Like I said, I was in a time crunch, because we’re actually college students. I believe that when you make something for a person you love, it turns out the best.

I hope this guide has been useful! Again, feel free to ask me any questions and add on. Happy cosplaying!!!

Dupe alert! I was previously using the Milk Kush Clear Brow Gel. @juviasplace sent me their new i Sculpt, i Shade Brow Gel andnits even better! It has a bit more hold than Milk but still flexible. I also like the application brush more because it covers more area on the brow. Have any of you tried these yet? The whole collection is nice! #dupeblack #juviasplace #browgel #cleargel #brows #browshaping #blackownedmakeupbrands https://www.instagram.com/p/CTQkTLNNfiu/?utm_medium=tumblr

Flaky & Delicious Sweet Cream Biscuits For Strawberries or Other Fruit

The first (and only) time my husband went strawberry picking with me he was not a happy camper.  It was too hot.  He had to bend over for too long.  It took waaaaayyyyy too much time to fill up the bucket I brought.  Yada yada yada.

When we got home I made him these sweet biscuits.  Kind of a reward of sorts.  He was thrilled!  (he said he still wasn't happy about the berry picking though....) Usually, when you see a sweet biscuit, you think of strawberry shortcake, as I first used them.  Oh but what a wonderful time we've had experimenting with other fruit!  Blueberries, mixed berries, peaches, and cooked apples are also all amazing on this incredible little biscuit.  We freeze fruit so that we are able to enjoy this delicious treat mid-winter when we need a little pick-me-up.  We heat the frozen fruit up over low heat on the stovetop, mashing it lightly as it cooks, drizzle in a bit of honey or maple syrup and devour enjoy on the biscuits.  If you want a thicker fruit blend (like in the photo above), just add a little cornstarch, arrowroot or cleargel.  Like whipped cream or whipped coconut cream?  Yup, add that to. However you choose to dress them up, these biscuits belong in your dessert rotation.

Sweet Cream Biscuits makes 8 biscuits 2 cups all-purpose flour 3 Tablespoons granulated sugar (or granulated cane or maple sugar) 1 Tablespoon baking powder 1 teaspoon salt 1/4 cup unsalted butter, cold 1 1/4 cups whipping cream, cold Additional sugar for dusting the tops, optional Prepare a baking sheet by lining with parchment.  Set aside. Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a large mixing bowl.  Grate the butter and add to the flour mixture, tossing with your hands briefly. Mix in the cream until the dough begins to come together. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and pat into a 1 inch thick circle.  Using a 3-inch round or square cutter, cut out biscuits and place on prepared baking sheet. Continue lightly balling dough back up and patting to 1 inch thick to cut biscuits from all of the dough. Cover and refrigerate for 20 minutes.  (**these can be refrigerated up to 2 hours or frozen up to 1 month at this point.  If baking from frozen, increase baking time to 25 minutes**) Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.  Lightly dust tops with additional sugar, if using.  Bake until golden and flaky, about 15 minutes. These are best enjoyed the same day they are baked.

Com série de reajustes, litro da gasolina é vendido a R$ 4,39 em BH

Com a sequência de altas no preço da gasolina nas refinarias da Petrobras, o combustível é vendido por mais de R$ 4 em postos de Belo Horizonte. No posto Cleargel, na avenida Abrãao Caram, na Pampulha, o litro da gasolina comum é comercializado por R$ 4,39.

De 31 de agosto para cá, a gasolina acumulou acréscimo de preço de 11,2% e o diesel ficou 8,94% mais caro desde o dia 29. Além da concorrência, na decisão de revisão de preços, pesam as informações sobre o câmbio e as cotações internacionais.

Nesta quinta-feira, 7 de setembro, a Petrobras reduzirá os preços da gasolina nas refinarias em 3,8% e promoverá aumento do diesel em 0,7%.

A nova política de revisão de preços foi divulgada pela petroleira no dia 30 de junho. Com o novo modelo, a Petrobras espera acompanhar as condições do mercado e enfrentar a concorrência de importadores. Em vez de esperar um mês para ajustar seus preços, a Petrobras agora avalia todas as condições do mercado para se adaptar, o que pode acontecer diariamente.
