How to Style Wigs and Hair for an Accurate Saja Boys Cosplay

When it comes to styling wigs for Saja Boys cosplay, there are ways to avoid professional styling tools or salon experience and still end up with a quality well-styled wig. With good wig selection and styling techniques, a look can be achieved without compromising comfort.

Finding Appropriate Wigs

To start, base wigs need to be selected first. Base wigs need to be sourced to reflect the appropriate color and lengths for the desired Saja Boys character. While it may be possible to use a wig that is too long and cut it down to the desired length, it is recommended to select a wig that is closer to the desired length. Saja Boys cosplay wigs should be sourced from retailers that sell heat-friendly or heat-resistant wigs. These wigs can be styled and molded to the desired shape using low heat and are better suited for longer con days.

Basic Wig Cutting and Style Modification

Level of experience does not need to be high; simple small snips here and there cut down the level of experience needed to make a wig look high quality. Instead of cutting across, small snips up and in an angled direction will help to finish the wig with a more natural and blended look. To achieve the desired level of styling without the bulking of the wig, the ends can be thinned out as long as the thinning is done to the ends level of the wig in a parallel direction to the desired shape being achieved. Increasing the level of styling in the wig should be done using levels of small incremental snips as to avoid an unintended result.

Basic Styling Without Advanced Equipment

Hair products like gel, wax, or even glue spray can help you get some spiky or soft volumized styles. For more of an anime look, use your fingers to comb certain sections instead of a brush. If your wig can handle heat, a blow dryer on low can help set the styles you created.

How to Secure a Wig to Make it Last

Wearing a wig cap can help keep your natural hair under the wig, and to keep the wig from slipping. For extra hold, bobby pins at the temples and nape can be really helpful, and adjustable straps on the inside of the wig can help with comfort. This will keep your cosplay as a Saja Boy camera-ready for a long time.

Hairstyle Matching with Characters.

Notice the parting, amount of hair, and the overall shape of the wig. Even little changes can contribute to making each Saja Boy character look different from each other without the need for any extra big styling tools.
