What an adorable quartet of customs! Well worth waiting for, I'd say!

Agh!squeeee!!! Patience is so CUTE. She looks like a lil tomboy; what character do you have in mind for her?
Agree Lia's wig suits her. She has very striking eyes.
What a nice quartet of OOAK dolls!

All different & all gorgeous,

I really like Lia’s wig, the hairstyle is very cute.

Thanks, everyone

Patience is so CUTE. She looks like a lil tomboy; what character do you have in mind for her?

Definitely mischievous and into everything! So far she's claimed this particular outfit as "hers" (even before the makeover) and I've yet to get her out of it... personally I think she'd look adorable in frilly dresses, too, but so far that hasn't happened.

Well, it's summer again... time to tackle some dolly projects. I have a whole bunch of dolls in need of wigs/ wig upgrades/ new looks.

Dalton is a Taeyang Jade I got quite awhile ago. On the one hand, Jade's best quality (in my eyes) is his purple hair. On the other hand, I despise most Groove wigs, and especially the Taeyang ones...



So I finally got him a different purple wig from CanCan, and rechipped him as well, although I'm not sure if I love these chips on him? I might try him with a darker green at some point. The good news is that he was super easy to disassemble



I also picked up a custom Taeyang a few months back from ohmikioh on Instagram... I was going to commission him, and he mentioned he had a few dolls of his that he was selling so I ended up buying one of them instead. He also got a CanCan wig. Meet Lewis!



I have a couple Pullips who also got new wigs that I haven't gotten around to photographing yet, and I also just put in two more wig orders (one to Leekeworld, and one to a seller on Aliex.press) so hopefully I'll have some more pictures to post here this month.

You have quite the fraternity house going on there in Casa Dargos! Stylish looking fellows, the lot of them!

Lewis is particularly good-looking! Nice choice with the blond-ish wig! Suits him well.

[Alliecat]

They’re both very handsome.
I thought Dalton’s chips were blue until I looked closer. I’m not sure either whether I would choose those or darker green. I guess you can always try both.
Lewis’s wig is cool too.

[dargosmydaddy]

Yeah, Lewis's wig is my favorite, too.

Least favorite of the CanCan order was the wig I got for Amalie, my Pullip Laura, who has gone through a lot of wigs. This is the third wig in three years that I've bought specifically for her (plus she's sported a cast-off from a different doll), and I think this one is going to be it! I like how it looks on her, but it was a real pain to get on (possibly they sent the wrong size?) and still doesn't "feel" right (there's a bubble in the back). But it looks OK in pictures which I guess is all that matters!



My other recent wig arrival was a Luts wig from PullipStyle that I've had my eye on for quite awhile, but I didn't want to place an order just for a wig, and then any time I was ready to order something else the wig was out of stock. But things finally aligned last month, and Bex (a Pullip Alice Sepia who I got second hand with a really frizzy stock wig) finally got a new do. 



Bonus photo of the two of them together:

Ooo, Bex is very stylish.
Does Amalie's wig have black in it or is that just the lighting/my screen? This was kind of what I was looking for, for Daesani, before she ended up blonde.
Bubbles are annoying, but, as long as it doesn't show I guess it doesn't really matter.
Did you get them from the "cancan-jseries" website?

Looks like satisfactory wig results to me. That dark red, with bangs, and a semi-center part is just !

Yes to both questions... well, I don't know if it has black in it, actually, but definitely a darker color. It's called "winemix;" this was the listing: https://cancan-jseries.com/products/r73a...ix?_pos=20&_sid=f3a8fe3e0&_ss=r

So their 8-9" wigs seem to fit Pullips OK. I'm leery of 8-9s because I bought one on Aliex-press that said Pullips in the listing (later amended and removed) and it did NOT come close to fitting.
