Tracon 8 cosplay plans here!

Image
Tracon 8 is coming closer and closer. I changed my cosplay plans for Sunday probably over 9000 times, but now I think I've finally made my decisions. After this post, there is no turning back! Case closed! u_u Saturday Character: Arisa Uotani Series: Fruits Basket I heard that there will be Fruits Basket group cosplay at Tracon and they didn't have Arisa cosplayer there, so why not? ^^ Iltabileet (=Evening party) Pokémon: Shiny Umbreon I don't really enjoy those parties, but now I'm forced to go. I may not spend my time dancing, but if I can have any pictures of this cosplay (gijinka), I'm on! Last time (Animecon X) I cosplayed also Umbreon, but that gijika wasn't the actual one I designed, but this time it'll be that actual one. c: If I'm lazy/tired I'll just keep the Arisa makeup's and wig on and just change that school Uniform to Chinese-styled dress. Sunday Character: Chizuru Yukimura Series: Hakuouki: Shin...

The fate of Chizuru's wig // Something about Tracon

Image
Again unnecessary post about wigs? =_= Here's the thing, I bought a new wig for Chizuru. The other one was... well.. not as good as it could be (probably because I had to cut it for some reason), but it's okay! I have a new one now! And the old was able to be used for something else! You'll find that out later while reading this post.. This new wig I bought was a little bit too long and curly, so guess who had to show the straightening skills again? >8D The wig before straightening and cutting. Dem hair clips. The lowest layers done. Done. That clip is just there to show you guys how much I had to cut. After cutting and putting it to a ponytail: What happened to that old one? D: -The old one became Kaoru-cosplay wig for  ShiroLuna  mah brotha! o/ <3 Still kinda thinking this is more like Chizuru than Kaoru idk... And now about Tracon VIII! You'll see me cosplaying as Arisa Uotani (Fruits Basket) there on Saturday for 100% s...

Straightening synthetic wigs

Image
This is about my Arisa Uotani cosplay-wig. I bought it from from Cosplay-kirppis ( Cosplay-Second Hand Shop ). It was cheap and the color was good so I thought that would be a good wig for Arisa, but it was too curly. The seller told me I can straighten that wig, so I did. It was also a good practice for me (read: I'm studying to a hairdresser). How did I start the whole operation? Well, first I had to choose the right tools. These tools I bought from school some time ago, and now I finally was able to USE them! And this time my tools were; a brush for fake hair, a little spray bottle (filled with cold water), 5 hair-clips, clearing comb and a straightener. Le random picture of my hairdresser package, sorry :'D  And these two pictures are my wig before I straightened it. As you can see, it's long and curly. These pictures are taken with my phone's camera, so they are not as good as they could be, excuse me for that. And the process went sorta like this: Fir...

Oulun Animeseminaari - TURRRSAS and photoshooting

Image
On Sunday night I came back home from Oulu's anime seminar alive . The seminar was only a small week end "con"in Oulu no shit Sherlock?.   The con building was Valve, just like last year. Friday I started my journey to Seminar already on Friday. After school I went to Jennysja's place in Ii. Ii is pretty close to Oulu, so we were able to travel from Ii to Oulu on Saturday and Sunday. Uhm.. Nothing much to say about Friday, nothing really happened on that day. We were supposed to photoshoot our cosplays on that day, but we were too lazy so.. meh. >8D We both were mostly just making our last-minute-makeup-tests. Saturday Laggy Saturday morning~ Me and Jennysja woke up at 8.00 o'clock in the morning! Soon after we woke up, Jennysja's two awesome friends tagged with us to the con in Mario and Wario cosplays! Btw, thanks for your company! <3  I was cosplaying as Retsu Unohana from Bleach and Jennysja was cosplaying as Rikio Kamamoto from K. Soon a...
