how i made my loki wig,this was done between me and my mum,she helped cut and layer it ,theres about 4 -5 layers .the hair had curls in it anyway which helped styling, after each cut it was set in rollers with hairspray,then i left it overnight,took the rollors out,thin i put the hair into spikes just by using the bed head stuff on the very tip of each spike ,there are lots of spikes but alot have fallen into the hair,but i guess when i move they will all flair out :) ,i then used more of the bed hair stuff over the top of the hair pulling the top as far back as i can,it also makes it look greasy like lokis hair, for extra hold i covered it all in a light dusting of hairspray :)

i dont own loki or marvel

original wig bought here - [link]

My god, your wig looks gorgeous ! I think it's the best wig I ever seen for Loki ! Seriously all the cosplayer use a random wig with this horrible border of hair (which we can find on every wig, in fact). And for this character I think the wig is a really huge part of the cosplay's success. So, yeah, really great job you did here !
Can I ask you how do you process to hide the.... the... arg, this thing, who makes the implantation looks this fabulous ? You know, the border which is on your forehead ? I don't know if you get it, I'm french it's really hard to explain what I mean... Anyway, how do you hide it, once it's on your head ?

thank you :) , well to make the hairline look realistic, is that the bit you mean? i bought a lace front wig,they are diffrent from normal wigs,instead of having that elastic band at the front normal wigs have,there is a chunk of lace with hair tied into it ,it gives you a fantastic hairline,i also put on a black wig cap too, and so it does not slip, i glue the wig to my forehead, hope this helps :)

Oui justement, I mean, when you have your wig on your head, we can't see at all this chunk of lace ?

I looked at several pictures of your Loki cosplay and I didn't see the lace Oo (maybe you edited it, i dunno) I hope you will soon add pictures of your new wig :3
Well thank you so much for you advices ! (I bought my front lace wig, for my Amora cosplay a couple of days ago~) That's really kind !

the pics that are on here that say they are from memorabilia either in the description or in the title are with my new wig ,theres no editing on those piccys :)
my old wig you could see the lace,it was too short and wasnt spiky enough,the one in the memorabila pics is perfect and best thing is,it came already styled all spiked and layered ,all i had to do was cut chunks out of it so match lokis hairline XD .
no problem,im glad that i helped :) any time :)
