Of Bjd Hair: Some Wig Trimming and Styling

As previously mentioned (See Bjd Unboxing: Alice's Collections Accessories Haul), several of the wigs Anna ordered recently needed a bit of trimming and restyling.

So today Usagi, Makoto, and surprisingly Yuki will receive a hair cut.

I shall let Anna proceed.

Okay here's the plan.  First, I will need to trim Usagi's bangs. She can barely see through them.

And her twin tails will need to be brushed and re-tied. They look so messy right now.

Then I need to fix Makoto's wig. It does look so cute on him, but I think it will look better if I trim around the front to soften the look.

However, Makoto is reluctant to get his hair trimmed unless Yuki gets a hair cut too.

Thankfully, Yuki is willing to oblige him. I got his wig several years ago (see Of Bjd Hair: Reviewing Three Wigs?), but I realized recently that it would benefit from a bit of softening too.

Those thick bangs of his have been hiding his handsome face for far too long.

I just need to tie back sections of hair with clear hair elastic so I can trim his hair one layer at a time.

I am using the same small scissors I used the last time I cut bjd wigs (see Of Bjd Hair: Some Grooming Tools and Doll Wig Makeovers).

So, after several minutes of trimming, brushing, and tying...

Here is the result.

Yuki ended up with eye grazing bangs. It wasn't exactly the look I was aiming for, but it looks great on him and he likes it.

Makoto's hair turned out almost exactly how I wanted it.

Of course that means their hairstyles don't quite match as much as they did before. But that's okay right?

"My hair is as cool as Yuki's right?"

Yes it is Makoto, yes it is.

With Usagi, I had to trim her bangs layer by layer, again. Yep, just like with her old wig. It was actually pretty pleasant, the fibers on this wig are so soft and easy to work with.

Which was helpful when doing the rest. I had to take out the original hair elastics and re-tie each ponytail with a fresh elastic. I left the little braids out so I could wrap them around the rest of the hair, then I added an extra hair elastic at the ends to keep Usagi's hair neater.

It looks so cute, I think it would look good on Hikaru too or something similar.

"Can I braid your hair too Hikaru? It would be so much fun! :)"

"Come to think of it, why don't you ever change your hair? :)"

That's right, you've never had a different hairstyle since you got that wig.

...

Um...But this hair is already absolutely perfect! Such a lovely wig with silky smooth strands. Why would I even dream of changing it?

"...Really?"

"...Right..."

"...Sure..."

That's right, no need to change it.

Why does Hikaru object to changing her hair so much, even after seeing such great results with the other dolls? Will we ever convince her to try a new look. And how will everyone react to our new doll when it finally arrives?

We shall see soon. Look forward to it.
