Quick FYI

(I lied this isn’t all that quick) Hey so… 

I have had 0 minutes of free time, I’m just getting home from rehearsal now (it’s 11 pm) and I have a shit ton of things to do before I can actually go and have fun on the internet looking for skirts, shoes, ect. 

So! Because I have NO idea where the other mods are, there’s actually— four of us I believe? But it seems I’m the only one living. 

Anyways, I’m going to destroy the inbox for the time being, deleting all the messages, and then putting this blog on hiatus until another mod has time to answer some questions. 

Though I’m already *technically* on hiatus I’m still getting a stream of messages daily with people asking for help and I’m feeling like an arschloch for not responding quick enough, if at all.

I’m not going to abandon this blog, but just be aware that if you need any help send it in way before you actually need the help. I’ll try to help people if they send in the messages before Friday, I’ll try to clear the inbox of all the new messages, bluh bluh bluh. 

If you had sent in an ask a while ago, I’m sorry, I’ve been way to busy and I haven’t had enough time to spend on tumblr. Send in the ask again before Friday and I’ll answer it this weekend, if not, I’ll answer it whenever I have time or at the end of June.

Has anyone ever found a Jade skirt that is CHEAP and not like $85 for something I'm going sew buttons on? My budget is about $30 or below. I do have buttons that I can sew, but if I can get it with buttons, that's even better. We're cosplaying in June and I need this as soon as possible! Thank you for any response in advance!

Possible Jade Skirt from Sears

http://www.sears.com/laura-scott-women-s-button-front-white-denim-skirt/p-007VA55300412P?prdNo=2&blockNo=2&blockType=G2 its available in sizes 8-18

Mod note: I have to edit this post later, though this skirt looks to be knee length. It’d work for someone with that headcanon.

rairix: purpleduckblog: This tutorial has made it’s way around the blog sites and was posted on /cgl/ about a week ago. It’s a promising guide that shares how to get rid of the shine on a wig, and it looks to have some great results! I was a little skeptical of this change and wanted to try it out before sharing it with you all so here are my results. Someone on /cgl/ commented that if this works, we should just buy cheap Halloween wigs from now on to save money. Sounds great in theory, so I tried this out with a Halloween wig.Before:The wig has been colored with sharpie but has no other products in it. The base is a long blonde wig from Party City, the kind that is usually sold around Halloween. The wig definitely has a lot of shine to it, that is visible without the flash being used. I followed the directions above, placing it in a large bowl. I added more than 1 cup of softener because the wig I used is longer than the one in the tutorial. I used enough Fleecy fabric softener to cover the wig. Then I left it for five days.After:I pulled it out, rinsed it off, and let it dry. The colour faded from the wig, as expected. The shine was dulled a bit in the indoor lighting, but in person it is sill noticeably shiny and it is still highly visible with the flash. The wig smells great, and it is a bit easier to run your fingers through it without tangling but overall there wasn’t that much of a change. Could this still work? In the original tutorial, the author lists Talc as one of the products used. Talcum powder, or baby powder, probably did more to dull the shine in the wig than the fabric softener. It is also possible that the type of wig or fabric softener (both were unlisted) could have provided better results. Conclusion:If you want to test it out, it’s a low cost method that may work for you. If nothing else, fabric softener is used to detangle a wig, so you may find your wig easier to work with afterwards but I don’t suggest relying on this method for all your future cosplays. /cgl/ did tests with this, the baby powder is required if you want the shine removed. The softener basically just acts as a calming agent to help untangle the wig, and control some of the fly aways. I did this to my meenah extensions for braids, and it works amazing for detangleing things. Also for anyone with a super tangled wig- get a spray bottle, 1 part fabric softener, 1 part cream rinse, 5-15 squirts of a hair smoothing spray, 5-15 squirts of a de-frizz spray and mix it up in a squirt bottle. Spray on wig right before you comb it. Not only does it work very well, it makes the wig smell amazing. Bonus points if you mix complimenting softener and cream rinse sents.

So I'm going to cosplay as Gamzee and Roxy for a convention and I'm thinking about what contacts I should get for both of them. Any tips?

For Gamzee, you can get sclera contacts, though they’re expensive -the last time I looked into them was for Terezi, and they were 100 or more- or, a lot of people simply get yellow circle lenses.  [Here|Here] I’d send you links for scleras but I recommend you research the people you’re getting them from ect. 

For Roxy, check here [Here]
