I’ve been working on a Karkat cosplay for a while, and I was looking for a wig on multiple sites. After a while I decided to order a wig from FM-Anime.com, because the one I found would need the least amount of styling.
This is the wig I ordered:
And this is the wig I recieved:
When I e-mailed them about a mix up (Since they have 3 wigs labeled the same thing) I was told that I had to cut the wig myself, even though no where on their website does it say that. Not only did they sell me a wig that wasn’t what they promised, in the light I noticed the wig is dark brown, not black as I ordered.
As far as I know, they will not take my return, as they have not replied to my product compliant that was sent on 5/10/13, even though the website guarantees customer support response within 6-12 hours (The original e-mail took they 2 days to reply to). They also do not do well with shipping; it took them a month after I paid for my wig to even send it out.
I would not recommend anyone use this site, based on their customer support, shipping time, and the product I received. However, that is my personal experience, maybe someone else actually got the wig the picture showed from this website.

If anyone is planning on buying from the user “agree518” I’d be very wary because i ordered this wig and i did not receive the wig. I only received a couple hair accessories (which i did not order) and that was it. I know a few people have had trouble ordering from them as well so I don’t recommend buying from them

This is a really good bun for Damara or young Handmaid! Arda Wigs makes super good quality wigs and this is only $6. You can buy a medium length wig, style it for the base and then sew in the bun or secure it with pins.

A brilliant wig to use for John Egbert that I used is this one from Ebay
It requires some styling but can turn out brilliantly and to show you, mine looked like this in the end:

I was looking online for my cosplay group’s trickster cosplays’ (More specifically mine), and I thought that I would share my findings with you guys!
The Pink Shirt/Dress thing
http://www.target.com/p/mossimo-supply-co-juniors-t-shirt-dress-assorted-colors/-/A-14236132#prodSlot=medium_1_2
This is perfect color and size for the shirt, but in my opinion the bottom needs some hemming to get the correct length. The neck also might be a bit too scoopy, but you could use the cape and bow to cover it if it bugs you like it bugs me.
Dark Pink Shorts
http://www.target.com/p/mossimo-supply-co-juniors-yoga-shorts-assorted-colors/-/A-14382949#prodSlot=medium_1_3
http://www.amazon.com/Active-Basic-Dance-Shorts-Colors/dp/B004Q6JT9C/ref=sr_1_1?s=athletic-clothing&ie=UTF8&qid=1368295767&sr=1-1
These are pretty much the same shorts, but in different shades of pink. The first is a lighter, rosier color, while the second is more of a magenta. If I’m not mistaken, the shorts should match the hood color, so I would advise you to purchase either the fabric or shorts first, then match try to match the color as closely as possible.
Glasses
http://www.amazon.com/Rosallini-Plastic-Square-Eyeglasses-Glasses/dp/B008ML0054/ref=sr_1_cc_2?s=aps&ie=UTF8&qid=1368324557&sr=1-2-catcorr&keywords=Square+Pink+Frame+Glasses
My headcanon has Female!Trickster!John with pink framed glasses, so I found these adorable cheap glasses. If you prefer regular John glasses, then I would suggest searching the John Mastertag.
Light Blue Shoes
http://www.amazon.com/Pam-01-fashion-designer-inspired-comfort/dp/B00CBR9WEK/ref=sr_1_45?s=shoes&ie=UTF8&qid=1368325953&sr=1-45&keywords=Blue+Flats
http://www.amazon.com/Pam-01A-fashion-designer-inspired-comfort/dp/B00CGE9QO4/ref=pd_sbs_shoe_2
The first are glittery, but they are a more accurate color, and it might fit someone’s headcanon. The second look like they are the right color, but the lighting in the picture could be hiding a greener shade than what we’re looking for.
Pink Thigh Highs
http://www.amazon.com/Leg-Avenue-Striped-Thigh-Highs/dp/B004K3YV1W/ref=sr_1_46?s=apparel&ie=UTF8&qid=1368326145&sr=1-46&keywords=pink+striped+thigh+highs
http://www.amazon.com/Music-Legs-Opaque-Striped-Thigh/dp/B008GOUT5I/ref=sr_1_30?s=apparel&ie=UTF8&qid=1368326145&sr=1-30&keywords=pink+striped+thigh+highs
These pairs both have bows on them, but the first have frilly garterbelts, and the second just have the bows. I’ve seen people cosplay Female!Trickster!John, and some of them decided to use these tights for a really cute effect. If you want regular thigh highs, you could either search the Trickster Masterpost, or you could order the second and cut off the bows.
Lollipop
http://ducktapestuck.tumblr.com/post/29855283867
I couldn’t find any good blue lollipops anywhere, so I found this tutorial and I figured that you could create a great looking lollipop for dirt-cheap.
And that’s all I have for Female!Trickster!John. If you’re wondering why there isn’t a wig on here, it’s because I am using my own hair for this, and I figured that it is probably really easy to find a good blond wig anywhere. Also, I would suggest keeping enough extra fabric from the hood cape for the bow, and look up a good tutorial on how to tie a large bow.

So, you can buy the wand that’s featured here at this costume store for only about $5 USD! (not including shipping price)
(It’s actually the same wand you can find here, but it’s cheaper at the above URL.)

I couldn’t see a whole lot of seams on them from the pictures on the website, but when I got them in I noticed that there’s a few in places that may be a deal breaker for some people.
There’s a seam that wraps all the way around the thumb and there’s two on each finger.
There’s also one on the outside of the arm. I also noticed they didn’t stay up all that well, after bending my arms a few times they fell down to my elbow. Some people don’t want too many seams to show, so I thought I’d share this so they know what they’re going to get if they buy these. They’re also a little shiny; nothing like a full-on glimmer or anything, but they definitely have a bit of a sparkle to them.

These look pretty much perfect, they don’t have rhinestones either.

Hello! I have tried many different kinds of black lipstick and wanted to recommend the very best brand I have found: http://portlandblacklipstickco.com/ (or http://www.etsy.com/shop/pdxblacklipstickco?ref=seller_info)They have other colors, but their black is very heavily pigmented and will remain so even after eating or drinking, and it will look fresh after a few hours. After that point, you might want to reapply it and check for minor feathering. It is not drying, and the only negative point I have about it is that it comes in a chapstick tube that might be hard to apply neatly with, and that it is somewhat difficult to get off. It does not stain your lips, however. This lipstick is great for the Lalondes and any trolls. They also have shades of blue and jade green that I think would be perfect for Vriska and Kanaya.

Well since just putting the picture up didn’t work so well here’s a link to the full sized one.
