i've been trying to find a decent wig for chii/freya(chobits)...i've been looking around my area,and they dont have a blonde one that's long enough,or its not good quality...

the length i prefer is below the waist (but the longer,the better).i dont mind the price,as long as its good quality..

anyone knoe any sites/stores?

try amphigory.com they sell wigs... and katiebair.com she customizes wigs, and have made a number of Chii wigs as well.... quality and satisfaction from these professional wig makers/suppliers is guaranteed.^_^

Note: Please be sure to visit katie bair's 'completed wigs gallery' to see what her products look like... most of them are trully impressive. And in my oppinion the satisfaction you'll get is going to be worth very penny you paid for the wig.

yeah, Ive seen Katie's galley and its really good. The price are just right because the wigs look very authentic. She even has a page on how to handle wigs, repair wigs properly. ^_^

*im thinking of ordering one myself.. but... I'll think about it a great deal ^_^;*

actually... Katie is so friendly too... I asked her about tips how to make my shiva wig back then... and I was so surprised that she replied back, and she was so friendly to reply to every single inquiry I asked her.^_^ So if you want to ask her for any special wig care or details about a wig, she will surely be happy to answer it.^_^ She also makes accessories, and the chi ears and hair accessories can be made by her too.^_^ I know you are studying and... how you like your costume, so I guess she can cater to your standards and demand.^_^

hey nikki, if you want, you can give me your contact number there in the UK since a friend of mine will be going there this saturday. she's studies in england and maybe can help you to shop a wig there in UK.

I see... well Katie doesn't have a picture of it in her completed gallery, but she already has a pricing for Chii wigs in her 'frequently requested characters' section

Chi - w/accessories (Chobits) Wig ID: 345

Base Materials:
Long Length Wig
Extensions x4
Styrofoam Wig Form (required for shipping)
MicroMesh Wig Cap (no extra charge)


Accessories: Resin Ears & Wood Hairbeads $55 -Not Refundable-

Base Materials Cost $88 -Refundable-
U.S. Packaging and Shipping $17 -Refundable-
(Add $10 for Canada, $25 for Other Countries)

Minimum Styling Fee: 19 units required x $6 = $114.00 -Not Refundable-

Base Price $274 USD ($6/unit) ($105 Refundable)
(final price will be based on actual bid per unit of styling time)


I am quite sure that wig is knee leght already. If you have other questions just ask her yourself through email. Anyway, you might not be able to use her services for your Chii wig since you need it by October. She is quite popular among cosplayers, and her schedule is usually booked months in advance.

I also checked cosplay.com for you, but they only ship to US or Canada. Only limited wig shops/online wig stores can supply you with something below the waist that will ship to UK, I hope you find a shop that does. Try this one, just have it cut in a parlor for the bangs http://www.greatwigs.co.uk/shop/product246.html

Good luck in wig hunting. ^_^
