I had my (hopefully!!!) last Japanese exam last week, and after it I popped by Sanna's new apartment to check it out - it looked sooo nice! I'm super jealous, haha.
Sanna also helped me to take some outfit photos, thank you. ♥

So, after customizing my completely straight hairline lacefront wig into a widow's peak by weaving two-three strands of hair into the lace at a time, I could finally try it on to see how it'll look in the end!
I used this tutorial's needle method to do it.

Here I go again with the cellphone selfies, my oh my I'm lazy..!

Anywho, today I picked up my wig for my Nishikino Maki cosplay that I ordered from MoeMall on eBay!

I tried it on real quick, and while the fibers, the color and the graduation of the colors is really beautiful, I'm kind of disappointed in the rest of it. 
The wig is very teased in the "roots", which makes it look like I have a very big head, and the hair in the "curls"/the longer parts of the wig is very thin. So it's too thick around the head and too thin in the lengths, unfortunately. But I will try and make it work either way since the fibers are so easy to work with and the color is sooo pretty! ♥

Isn't it just adorable? Can you spot my character? ♥

Until next time! ♥

I picked up a package full of circle lenses from Honeycolor this week! Only two pairs for myself though. Honeycolor is a great site to order from if you're a bunch of friends who need lenses for a con or just for fun, since if you order for more than 100$ you get free express shipping, something me and my group sorely needed since these lenses are for Banzaicon next weekend! I ordered them a little over a week ago, but since Easter left the post office closed for about five days I think it only took about five-six days for the parcel to reach me!
Now I'm off to prepare the last bits of my costumes and luggage for Banzaicon in Larvik, Norway this weekend, together with my AKBabes, I'm so very excited that we'll get to perform there!

My friend Joss were in town this weekend, so we took the opportunity to spend some quality time together! ♥
We spent the night watching Kill la Kill and doing makeup tests from said anime - since Joss have wanted me to cosplay Satsuki for a looooong time. I wasn't quite sure about the eyebrows at first, but I must say that a character that will allow me to boss everyone around, look high and mighty and have a pretty uniform with a sword to go with wouldn't be all that bad. Satsuki really is the kind of strong, female, tough character that I like so much, so it's much likely that it's a cosplay that will happen!

Having super flat, non volymous hair, I have since somewhere in the middle of highschool almost constantly been curling my hair to get some texture into it. So much, that most people think I have curly hair while it's actually super flat. But of course, even after finding out about the wonders of heat protection, all that heatstyling damaged my hair baaadly.
So I found this about two years back, and I wanted to share it with you: sponge curlers.
I've bought mine for like 2$ on ebay. I roll my hair up when it's slightly damp and wear them to bed, and I wake up to bouncy curls. Today I rolled them pretty hard, all the way down to my roots, which gave me this super fluffy curly mess á la the 80's, but you can allso roll them halfway to your roots, looser, or put more hair onto each roll for way softer, more controlled curls.
