LEON KENNEDY WIG TUTORIAL

This is by no means the only way to style a Leon wig but this is how I did it and I hope it’s useful!

It’s a short haircut with an undercut and side parted curtains on a lace-front wig

In the name of transparency, the wigs in the thumbnail are both two different Leon wigs I’ve styled! This is actually a re-post from my old channel when I was just Nomes Cosplay!

Canvas wig head (includes, clamp stand and T-pins!):

A canvas wig head is a great investment. It will stand up to many many styling projects and, unlike polysytrene heads, is actually representative of a human head size!

Teasing brush:

Cheap, versatile, long lasting and easy to wash!

Hair cutting scissors:

These are the self same scissors I’ve been using for the last few years. They cut well but I was also drawn to the pretty rainbow colours

Got2be spiking glue:

Got2Be hairspray:

The cosplay gods smiled upon us with this hairspray! Fantastic hold. Not all hair products work on synthetic wig hair but the Got2Be products are genius.

Straighteners:

I literally got mine years ago for £5 from a charity shop but these have a good reputation and are reasonably priced:

Garment steamer:

NB: this is not the same as my steamer but going by reviews it’s much more reliable. Mine spits boiling water at me when it’s in a mood… Since investing in a steamer for wig styling I’ve never looked back. Good for straightening, curling, setting and more!

Hair clips:

Base wig and wefts: I recommend Imstyle, Wig is fashion, Coscraft and Arda as low risk and reliable lace front base wig suppliers depending upon your location.
