Costume Wig Ideas and Inspiration for All!
How costume wigs can turn any dress up disguise from ok to awesome!
After selecting a fancy dress costume, many people will start to hunt for a matching costume wig to complete their overall look. Finding suitable, unique costume wig ideas will really help you stand out and look amazing at your next party. Sometimes you can be a little creative with wig hair, just as you would with your own, especially with our higher quality wigs such as the Elevate and Pleasure brands of wigs. These high quality wigs can both be lightly styled using wide tooth combs (be aware that curls can't be combed though), and use the costume wig as a starting point for matching your costume theme and play with it, rearrange it and tease and pin it until it matches what you had in mind. If you need a hair style that is based on long black hair, then a long black costume wig can be a great starting point. This type of wig can be converted into many different and imaginative themes, here are some costume wig ideas:
- Use this wig as it is for themes such as gothic, witch or vampire girl. Themes such as glamour runway model and hippie can also be covered with the basic unchanged wig.
- Then you can also use pins to pin up the long sides on top of your head and turn the wig into a messy and chic geisha style (leave a couple of long pieces on the side of your head) or Halloween themes.
- If you tidy up the hair piled on top of your head a bit then many other themes needing an updo can be achieved by pinning it neatly.
- Use 2 ribbons and sweep the hair into 2 pigtails for an innocent look for themes such as schoolgirls and fairy tales.
- How about a one sided ponytail, again for a great schoolgirl or secretary or even a teacher themed costume.
- You could also plait the hair in one or two plaits and get an indian girl theme.
If you're looking for costume wig ideas that don't require styling, you are in luck, because we have an enormous collection of ready to wear costume wigs and fashion wigs on our website that are already styled in the perfect look to match most of our costume themes.
If you need costume wig ideas to be a movie character, a person from history, or a character from a fairytale, we have a big selection of wigs in various colours, shapes and styles that you can't get your own hair to do!
It’s always a good idea to find costume wig ideas which suit your style and personality, but also the outfit you’re wearing. If you’re going as Alice from the Disney movie Alice In Wonderland, it’s probably best if you didn’t show up in a bright pink bob, but perhaps some golden locks instead. If you’re going as a hippie, select a beaded hippie wig as opposed to a mohawk. The length and shape of the hair should complement your face, but you should also be adventurous.
You'll find great costume wig ideas to help you get in character, as they transform your entire fancy dress look, and they’re also great as a disguise. However, costume wigs don’t only have to be used for movie, book and television characters. It’s always fun to wear a wig for a costume party just to ‘be somebody else.’ Even if you’re attending the party as a sexy bunny, a bad cop or a naughty schoolgirl, doesn’t mean you have to sport your regular, natural hairstyle that everyone sees every day. We offer less quirky, natural looking wigs in all colours and styles. Instead of having to spend hours curling, teasing and fixing your hair before the party, simply slip a wig cap over the top, put your wig on, and your hair’s already done. You'll find costume wig ideas to make you blonde, brunette, or a red head, and you’ll have movie star hair in less than a minute!
Wearing a beautiful fashion wig or costume wig can make you feel special and super sexy. Dress up wigs are affordable and easy to put on, with most wigs coming in a ‘one size fits all’, with the sizing easily adjustable via several slips inside the wig. A good wig can make you look elegant, quirky, scary or flirty, and can be worn with almost any fancy dress costume.
