For a Japanese Geisha Costume

In particular, if you decide to don up a Geisha costume, you will need a Geisha wig to complete your look.

And in planning for your Geisha costume, making your own wig can be a great advantage on your time and money instead of looking for a Geisha wig from several shops.

Hence, here is list of materials that you will need in making your very own costume.

• You will need a black wig that measures long enough to pass through your shoulders.
  
  There are actually some packages of black hair weaved with glue that can be bought as substitute for a Geisha hair wig, only that the black weaved hair sometimes costs more and can take extra time to finish.
  
  
• Besides the long black hair, you will also have to purchase a scrunchie (See all Ponytail Holders) and a wig cap.
  
  A scrunchie is a small black hair band used in accentuating the Geisha hair style.
  
  
• In addition, hair pins or black bobby pins (See all Hair Styling Pins) are also needed in keeping the wig style secure and held in place.
  
  You can also play with these hair pins since there are some decorative hair clips, ribbons, and others that can be used in a Geisha wig.
