1/2 Prince or Jennifer Cosplay wig Review

I come up with a decision to cosplay Gakupo Kamui of VOCALOID recently and look for a good wig brand that matches the color of his hair -purple.

Gakupo Kamui on Dr. Realist

While searching the cosplay wigs on Taobao.com, this wig caught my attention, so I've decided to  buy the Gakupo wig of that brand.

The shop name on Taobao is 1/2 Prince:
http://chenyecos.taobao.com/

While; The shop name on Ebay is JENNIFER CosPlay:
http://stores.ebay.com/JENNIFER-CosPlay-Costumes-Wigs

According to Chenyecos:

"使用的发料是市场上最优质的日本进口卡尼卡伦发丝~"

or in english:

"The material of the hair is the best on the market imported from Japan Carney Karen hair ~"

The wig is heat-resistant up to 200, meaning the wig can be straighten under the temperature of 200℃.

This is the wig reference that I've got from Taobao.com; since I actually got my wig from Taobao, not from Ebay. :D


And this is the reference that I saw from Ebay.

Wig rating:

Texture: 

Wig is soft and silky; is not easy to get tangled, specially the clip-on.

Had some problems with the long part of the base wig, but it's fine, the wig can be fixed by comb.

Thickness: 

Strands well distributed.

Top view of the wig when worn.

Quality: 

This is a good quality of wig. It's not shiny, and might be used on daily basis, but I suggest to pick a different color of wig since this color isn't a common color of the hair.

Here's the photo of me while wearing the wig.


Sorry for the blurry pic, my hands tremble a bit so I can't get a good shot.

I hope this review helps. Have a nice day!~
