Tutorial preview desu!
Here's the subject of the next tutorial...



Putting a full curl in a wig!
Don't worry, it only looks hard. Tedious? A little, but definitely doable! No worries, everyone will get a nice walk through step by step! Had a lot of fun with this one, another experiement with good ol' Ivy ( http://www.cosworx.com/product.php?productid=26259&cat=2471&page=1 ).

A BIG THANK YOU TO OSCAR, TOO! I bought the camera that took these tutorial pictures from him a couple weeks ago. It's so neat and easy to use, it fits right in my purse, so I can take pictures easily. Oscar, you rule and I love the little camera. ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ . Expect things to look much clearer from now on!

Things have been very busy here, as usual. Midterms just passed and business is hectic with Halloween coming up! Both are going very well. Does everyone have exciting plans for Halloween? What is everyone dressing up as? As for me, I think I'm going to go to the Beaux Arts Ball here in Las Vegas for fabulous fun and a good cause.

This week, I'm probably going to go through my LJ and add people who wish to be on my friends list. Please comment if you've been reading and wish to be added. It's easy to miss people, so please pipe up because I'd love to have you!

Until then, it's getting late so that means bubblebath and bed. This week I got some of the new "Velvet Tuberose" scent from Bath and Body Works and it smells DIVINE. Tuberose, I love you so~~~ ♥

I'll have it done soon, I hope. There's not a HUGE amount of steps, so the writing won't take all that long. There's a SLIGHT reprieve in paper writing this week, so there's a chance it will be done in a few days. Depends on how effecient I am in getting Shiva done before deadline :)

Hi~!

I've been reading for a while and I'd love to be on your friends list, if you'll have me. You're the reason I know there's a Takarazuka community on Livejournal, actually. (I lurk there too, but haven't commented. I'm sort of shy.) I like to read your posts about costume stuff too. Anyway, it's nice to meet you!

This is going to be INCREDIBLY useful as there are so many tutorials about straightening. No one ever seems to want to venture into the world of curling!

Hahahaha, straightening is WAAAAAAAY easier. I used to have to put big sausage curls into hair pieces for the girls at the Venetian which was done in a similar way. I'm just a little afraid that the fact that the wrapping alone takes about an hour, people will get turned off. It's not an instant gratification project like the last tutorials have been. Still, it's kinda fun!

Wow, such body! My poor natural hair would never do that!

What kind of camera did you get? I just got a new Powershot, it's great for fitting in pockets for conventions but not really great on the focusing of things! It has facial recognition too but it doesn't work very often.

Halloween? I'm going to OH for a party with friends. I'm going to be the single most horrid Strawberry shortcake ever. Haa!

It has been on the to do list for a while :) Actually, I was gonna do ponytails first, but somehow I got a burr in my butt to curl up Ivy. Hahahahahaha. It's still useful, no?

What kind of digital camera is it?
I am looking into getting a new one because mine is getting outdated and it is so huge! I can't take the damn thing anywhere without looking like a goofball tourist. Purse-sized cameras sound good -- nice a ninja-photographer-y. XD

And is it possible to be jealous of a wig? My hair is never that well-behaved, doing what I want it to!

I would like to say that your tutorials have helped me understand wig making a whole lot better. They are great for any skill level espeacialy for begginners like me who get dicourage when they can't find a better technique or easier explanation on how to do certain styles. The wigs that I am planning on doing are styles that invole bangs and the Cutting/Curling bang tutorail that you have done is great. Thank you so much.

I remember trying this with a wig eons ago, and the results equaled a not-so-happy-frizz-wig-of-doom. But this is amazing! I love it, and can't wait to see the tutorial!

I found you through a friend of mine, or rather, your side. WindoftheStars.
Mind if I add you? <3
