Hello, my crafty friends! We're still smack in the middle of constructing our new craft room, so I think this is a great time to launch a new series, featuring cosplay and costuming stories and cozy craft alongs! This first video is about a fan favorite topic: the history of cosplay wigs from around 2000 through 2012! Cosplay wigs back then were a lot different from what you can find today, and comment below with your own experience if you lived through these dark ages!
(Also see if you can find the ancient photos of our own cosplays sprinkled in here :D )
Do you like this series or is there a story you want us to tackle next? Let us know!
