Glamorous Costume Wigs

When you are looking for that fantastic costume wig to set off your stage creation make sure you find a quality wig supplier, preferably one who works specifically to the entertainment industry. Many a glamorous drag queen has fallen down (so to speak) by a poor quality wig perched atop her carefully chosen sequins and shimmers. If your act revolves around your stage persona being unendingly glam and authentic then of course you will opt for a bespoke costume wig which is as unique as you are.

General rule of thumb then is if is cheap then it will look cheap. However if your wig is a one-off for your part in a local am-dram or themed night out with the lads then worry not, a cheap and cheerful wig will do just as well. However this article is aimed at the rather more serious wig connoisseur who relies on great looking hairpieces to accentuate, enhance and glorify a larger than life stage persona.

A wig for all seasons

Bespoke wigs should always be created with you in mind. The shape of the face, the clothing you wear, and your natural colouring – all these things and more will be taken into account before the tailor made creation is thus presented to you. Therefore a one-to-one consultation is a must. Explain exactly what you need the wig to do, what image you are looking to create and be prepared to pay as much as you can comfortably afford for this perfect piece of hairpiece engineering. Remember your wig is a substantial part of your bread and butter so never, ever consider your wig to be jam – it is a very necessary part of your act as a drag queen.

The best wigs are always created from human hair and so must your costume wig be. Even though you may know exactly what you want your wig to look like do take professional advice as to the care and treatment of your costume wig and always treat it as a ventriloquist treats his dummy – very carefully and in a box when not on stage.
