Could you make a video about the most common mistakes people do with their wigs? (On wearing, taking care of etc). Thanks for all the videos, very informative (:
I know you probably have died by now. You were on here 6 months ago but if you are still alive contact me. What you may be experiencing is self actualization, the opposite from the traditional acceptance of ignorance and entertainment. You are very rare. And I am looking for a suitable person to have a conversation with.
For washing synthetic wigs a quick maintenance way is I use a febreeze and water mix combo in a spray bottle. You get to choose the smell you want and helps for a quick refresh!
I messed up washing my Lagoona blue wig >_< I washed it in hot water when it's curly! OOPS! And I also used baby shampoo because it's the most gentle and heard baby shampoo is okay to wash wigs with. And... I brushed it out right after washing it instead of letting it dry overnight. My bad lol
Thank you for this series, I just got my very first wig today. And these helped me prepare for it. ^.^ it's a cheap wig but hopefully these will help me keep it in great condition
This series is really making me want to start getting wigs. I want to start cosplaying anyways but have been hesitant because I didn't know what brand of wigs to get or how to care for them. So thank you so much.
how do you brush a rhapsody wig? I bought one and wore it for a convention and it's all kinds of tangled now. I want to wash it, but I definitely don't want to make it even knottier. Any tips??
watch her how to brush a wig video! you do the same thing. wig detangler (im pretty sure regular hair detangler works as well), wide tooth comb, and go slow and careful!
watch a movie or tv show while you do it! it'll help pass time and make it seem like a shorter process! or tackle one half in one part of the day and the other later in the day.
You can not die a synthetic wig. Only human...dying a human hair wig can be quite complex depending what needs to be done. I suggest bringing it to a professional like myself who specializes in wigs if you need to color you wig
Danielle Satava I'm a cosplayer and in most cases you need to dye your wig to fit a certain style. I've seen people dye it with alcohol + alcohol ink, water + sharpie and with a couple other methods. In my case it does not have to look natural at all.
Question! So, I purchased 3 different Bella style wigs from Gothic Lolita Wigs at the same time I've had them all for two weeks now The Lavender and Green are both still perfect The Silver one is puffy? I guess is how you could describe it? At the ends and tangly I've worn them all the same amount and I have tried putting the spray conditioner in it that you showed in your "How to Brush a Wig" tutorial but it's still...puffy. The other two (Lavender and Green) are both still perfect! Do you think washing the Silver one will help? Or do you have experience or suggestions for that or why the Silver one is doing this? Thank you so much! These videos are SO SO SO helpful! And...I totally ordered that Rilakkuma top! It is so CUTE! xoxo Roya
Fantastic! Thanks so much for this! Needing to restyle my Ariel and my Princess Peach wigs and needing to get them nice and clean before starting. Appreciated!
hey. i'm a cosolayer and i like videos like that. when i ordered my first wig, i noticed, that it look strange, hair wasn't straight, and wig looked not so accurate and good. i think, would be interesting to do a video about ABSOLUTELY new wig. i mean, to show, how you unboxing it, how wig looks, when it comes and how to make it look good, straighten. Well, just about how to make it look normal, when it just arrived. (btw, sorry about my English, i'm Russian)^^
Thank you for this! I’m a professional Stiltwalker and I rock it as Uncle Sam. (I’m a Real Beard Uncle Sam!) Anyway, after watching your video and others, I’m gonna try DISTILLED WATER or FILTERED WATER for the washing of my White wig. Our water here has a lot of iron and when we tried using it to wash the side of our mattress, it made it WORSE. So I’ll let you know how it works out. Thanks, girl!
Thank you Alexa for all your advice ! I love you a lot !! Actually I never washed any of my wigs, because I'm waaay too scared to destroy it @__@ but I'll try to follow every step and hopefully, everthing will be ok .... Greetings from France !!
Thank you so so much this helped me a lot My wig started smelling like smoke and the smell of it just smelled horrible so this helps so much I will definitely be using this video to help me with future wig washing 👍🏻♥️
Thank you for this!! I now feel less anxious about ruining my already damaged wig by washing it hahaha. Going to try this out tonight. Thank you, again.
Question! Does this also work for clip on ponytails? From untangling a clip on ponytail it has allot of fabric softener in it, it changed the texture of the ponytail. Could this method get it out?
I’m watching this to prepare for a wig that i might be getting. Does this tutorial work with other brands because i don’t want to ruin my wig if i go to wash it
alexa, can you dye rockstar wigs? i really want a half blue half black wig and rockstar wigs dont have that colour combination in the bella range, can you dye like the white/blonde rockstar wigs to get those colours & are their special dyes or methods to do it?
Same I colored the roots for my Kenma wig and I really like it and don't wanna lose all that work- i don't need to wash it any time soon because I just got it but I'm scared for when the time comes
Is it okay/possible to use washing up liquid on a wig for washing? I have one that could do with a wash because it sits against my face and the particular cosplay it's for requires me to paint myself blue, for which I use greasepaint (aquacolor doesn't work for me). Shampoo hasn't really got the grease out, but I know washing up liquid is made to get rid of grease -but is it safe for the wigs?
Thank you for all these videos! I'm a complete noob with wigs. Right now, I only have one wig ( Short with pigtails) but now I want to get more. I have to get more money though, lol.
I've just found your channel and subbed instantly! Love your personality and your videos are great! Keep up the good work and thank you so much. I feel almost ready to purchase my first wig now 😂😍
i know i should probably put this in a different video but im absolutely in love with lace front wigs but ive never had one nor have i seen how there put on could you do a how to put on a lace front wig video

Yes ! I ruined a $300 lace front but washing it incorrectly. So be careful babies ! Thank you for teaching us do much ☺️
$300? 😨
How to style it? E.g How to curl, straighten, ect.
Becca Measor Ik this is really really really late but if you wanna curl and straighten it, it has to be a natural hair wig
@@hollywonch5694 nope there's heat resistant wigs
you really shouldn’t use a heat curler/straightener. it will burn the plastic
@@aebez heat resistance wigs
*CAN YOU DO A VIDEO ON HOW TO STYLE YOUR WIG AND HOW TO CREATE BANGS? THANK YOU.*
SoshiStars Ent. *YOU YELLING AT ME IS GIVING ME ANXIETY.*
She already did
I donated my hair a few months ago, it's weird to think it's probably on someone else's head now
Mr. Meeseeks haha!
I don't even have a wig.
Love u Alexa :D

+Hana Komínová Yeah! Finally omebody from Czech Republic! ^_^
+Hana Komínová ^3^ *somebody
+Hana Komínová Yes.
there has never been a wig on my head in my entire life, but im loving your wig series 😂
(this is for the people who dont have that shampoo) you can also use fabric softener! 💕
I'm a few months late but can I use laundry detergent?
Can you do one on how to repair a damaged wig? One of my wigs is totally frazzled.
EverythingIC I suggest using laundry detergent. If you let it soak in water and laundry detergent, it should be softer and not as frazzled.
Grey Patches Hope it works!
@@julianorden8108 omg tysm
@@asha3886 omg hi, i completely forgot i commented that lol. i meant fabric softener!! not laundry detergent
@@julianorden8108 ohh okay!!
Is she doing these all right after another or is she dressing the same each time?? I'm really curious 😂
I filmed the first 5 at the same time ;D
+Alexa Poletti First I love you, and second good to know. I was really curious 😂 I'm a bit weird.
I was wondering the same thing 😂
+Alexa Poletti sounds like you had a long day that day
+Michelle Province same
I just started wearing wigs for cosplay and this is a COMPLETELY helpful series!! Thank you so much!
"when it's time to wash your wig you'll know it" lol like when there's makeup all up in the hairline haha
Getting a lace front wig tomorrow for Christmas! Thanks Alexa for starting my wig obsession 😂
Krissy barber I got a lace front for Christmas too! Which one did you get?
Mysterious Ecstasy I got a pink one with dark roots
Krissy barber i got the silver one 😄
For washing synthetic wigs a quick maintenance way is I use a febreeze and water mix combo in a spray bottle. You get to choose the smell you want and helps for a quick refresh!
I already know how to wash wigs but I keep watching videos about it cuz it's so satisfying
BebeBurbs can you wash them with any shampoo or just that kind????
I messed up washing my Lagoona blue wig >_< I washed it in hot water when it's curly! OOPS! And I also used baby shampoo because it's the most gentle and heard baby shampoo is okay to wash wigs with. And... I brushed it out right after washing it instead of letting it dry overnight. My bad lol
LisaTigressHardy Uh oh!

This series is really helpful as I am planning on buying a wig for my Bridgette cosplay!
Thank you for this series, I just got my very first wig today. And these helped me prepare for it. ^.^ it's a cheap wig but hopefully these will help me keep it in great condition
Ordered my wig the other day can't wait to get it!
This series is really making me want to start getting wigs. I want to start cosplaying anyways but have been hesitant because I didn't know what brand of wigs to get or how to care for them. So thank you so much.
Ay I know it's 5 years later but Kasou's wigs are pretty great! How's your day been btw?
I finished all the steps...but then I realized at the end I had a different wig -_- hurray soooo
how do you brush a rhapsody wig? I bought one and wore it for a convention and it's all kinds of tangled now. I want to wash it, but I definitely don't want to make it even knottier. Any tips??
+Isamaar Cosplay samee i have a rhapsody wig. how do you brush and wash it without damaging the style? +alexa poletti
watch her how to brush a wig video!
you do the same thing. wig detangler (im pretty sure regular hair detangler works as well), wide tooth comb, and go slow and careful!
I've watched it and I guess I'm just impatient lol. I'll try that out when I get paid uwu
watch a movie or tv show while you do it! it'll help pass time and make it seem like a shorter process!
or tackle one half in one part of the day and the other later in the day.
DEFINITELY brush from bottom to the top to reduce the tightening of the knots and tangles.
I would love to know how you dye a wig or what products you use. Love ya gurl ♥

+SorahGames you can dye wigs using fabric dye
i just brought my celestia ludenberg wig and it REALLY needs to be cleaned. i think this will help, thank you
who else is a baby cosplayer and literally lives for this series? ;W;
So far I watch all your wig related videos since I got a new wig and needed tips lol 😂

After years I still go back to this series
Omg all these tutorials help so much!
i dont own any wigs at all nor am i looking to purchase one anytime soon, but i still enjoy watching this series for some reason lol
Can you do a video on supplies for styling wigs/how to style wigs?

thank you Alexa i love you
Loved this vid and the whole wig care series in general! It would be super cool if you uploaded another makeup tutorial soon! xx
Question!
So, I purchased 3 different Bella style wigs from Gothic Lolita Wigs at the same time
I've had them all for two weeks now
The Lavender and Green are both still perfect
The Silver one is puffy? I guess is how you could describe it? At the ends and tangly
I've worn them all the same amount and I have tried putting the spray conditioner in it that you showed in your "How to Brush a Wig" tutorial but it's still...puffy.
The other two (Lavender and Green) are both still perfect!
Do you think washing the Silver one will help? Or do you have experience or suggestions for that or why the Silver one is doing this?
Thank you so much! These videos are SO SO SO helpful!
And...I totally ordered that Rilakkuma top! It is so CUTE!
xoxo Roya
RoyaContraMundum Use a fabric softener. it's a lot more gentle then regular conditioner.
I have always wanted to try and wear a wig, and because of you, I am finally going to do it! Thank you!
I am living for this series so far! Surprised I haven't found this sooner!
This was really helpful for my wig! Thanks
I have a metre long wig. I use the shower for convenience and have found it helps massively with tangle reduction
Fantastic! Thanks so much for this! Needing to restyle my Ariel and my Princess Peach wigs and needing to get them nice and clean before starting. Appreciated!
Ugh Alexa is so adorable
I have this exact wig but darker thanks for the help

When I saw your video about to wear it, I got inspired, and now I really, really, really, really, really want a wig 😅
This really helped me wash the pigtails to my Miku Hatsune wig and some random wig I was going to wear for a cosplay. Thanks!
Thank you. I appreciate your lighthearted approach.
Thank you so much for making this!!! 💕 This was the one major wig care bit I was unsure on, so this helped A LOT!!! Love ya!
Thank you very much Alexa! This video has helped me a lot in understanding what to do to wash my wig! ❤️
4 years later and I'm binge watching this series
can you please make a video about styling a wig like cutting and stuff like that.
I don't have shampoo for wigs, so I was wondering how important it is to use shampoo for wigs or can I use my normal shampoo?
Thank you for this! I’m a professional Stiltwalker and I rock it as Uncle Sam. (I’m a Real Beard Uncle Sam!)

Thank you so so much this helped me a lot My wig started smelling like smoke and the smell of it just smelled horrible so this helps so much I will definitely be using this video to help me with future wig washing 👍🏻♥️
Hello, I bough a kenma wig and the style is like a bob and the hair comes inward how could i make it straight
I just got a shigaraki wig and I’m struggling :’)
I heard you could use laundry detergent to wash and then liquid fabric softener to help soften it and make it easier to brush? does that work too?
Thanks for this series I have only just got into wearing wigs so it's really helpful 😘xxx
I have that exact blonde wig for a kaori cosplay but I didn't buy it from where ever you got it from I think
i swear these videos are saving my life right now xD
Thank you sooooooo much!!!!! I am new at cosplaying and I don't know very much about how to handle the wig
Thank you for this!! I now feel less anxious about ruining my already damaged wig by washing it hahaha. Going to try this out tonight. Thank you, again.
That pink wig suits you soooooo good 💗!
Can I use fabric softener instead of the special shampoo?
Cool! How do you style them? As in coordinating with your outfits? Are there some basic rules that you should never do or..?
Fashion has no rules! Do whatever you want and whatever makes ya feel confident :)
Well you can't use heat on wigs that can't Handel it but other than that I think that's good! :3
Alexa Poletti YIKES really late reply, but thank you so much for taking time to answer my question! :)
Thank you for addressing lace-front wigs! And I'll certainly remember the tip about using cold water. Thank you, Alexa! :)
does fabric softener work? i heard it helps synthetic wigs...
* me watching while washing the wig *
*Her stay the important stuff at the end *
*blanks stares*
great video! Im trying to buy my first wig soon-- would you recommend washing it like this when we first get it?
I seriously love this little series 🙌🏻💕💕
This really helped me with confidence to wash my first wig
Question! Does this also work for clip on ponytails? From untangling a clip on ponytail it has allot of fabric softener in it, it changed the texture of the ponytail. Could this method get it out?
I have only 2 wigs but this helps me a lot I will love to have more wigs in the feature
What do you do if you want to put conditioner in your wig? Do you just use the same method like you did for the shampoo?
I probably messed up by using the wrong shampoo 😅 , this video was really helpful for me
i have a question... if you want to wash a wig that is curly do you brush it out before and after washing too? wouldn't it loose the curls then?
Could you do a video on how to know if a wigs a good quality and different types of wigs?
I love this series and if there's any more I can't wait⌚
I’m watching this to prepare for a wig that i might be getting. Does this tutorial work with other brands because i don’t want to ruin my wig if i go to wash it
If i don't have shampoo for synthetic hair can i wash my wig with another shampoo?
I used to cosplay before where im getting back to ot now so this is a review on how to wash wigs

If So i dont know what to do
Same I colored the roots for my Kenma wig and I really like it and don't wanna lose all that work- i don't need to wash it any time soon because I just got it but I'm scared for when the time comes
What happens if your wig has two (separate) ponytails?
Alexa!!! It's almost your channels 2 year anniversary! Are you going to do any thing for it?
Is it okay/possible to use washing up liquid on a wig for washing?
