Leeke Art wigs – Colourless

So my friend Yenna ordered from Leeke recently and I joined her order with two wigs for my Vocaloid Dollfie Dream Luka and Kaito’s OC looks.（*´▽｀*）I’d been eyeing the “Pretty Girl” wig for Luka for a while now, but didn’t really have anything else to order so I hadn’t gone for it until now. And well, Kaito arrived and I wanted to get a blue wig for him, so then I took a bit of a risk ordering “Atlas” since there was a chance that the wig could look ridiculous on him. And also, Leeke’s quality hasn’t been great after the 2010’s so ordering any wigs from them is basically a gamble. But, occasionally I like to give companies a chance to redeem themselves so I bought the wigs to see what Leeke’s quality is like in 2023. (｡･ω･｡)

Without further ado, let’s take a look at the wigs:

Pretty Girl in 9~10 inch

null — Mostly good, but had quite a bit of longer flyaways coming out of the bangs, which needed to be cut. (･∀･；) The right side also isn’t curled as well as the left.

Atlas in 9~10 inch

Also took a photo of Kaito, whose OC name will be Rion (利音):

I’m relatively happy with the wigs, even though I’m a bit bummed that the parting is a bit wonky on Atlas (forgot to take a detailed photo) and the fiber distribution was a bit uneven… it was slightly more expensive than the other wigs, too. ( ｰ̀εｰ́ ) Also, while it’s a nice deep blue in real life, it pretty much looks black in photos, so I think I’ll need to find a lighter blue wig for this boy, lol. But I guess he can occasionally wear this one. (*^▽^*)

Right, both wigs actually had light coloured wig caps, which is good in case of vinyl dolls, as it’s less likely to be a stain hazard unlike a black wig cap. (。･o･｡) I took 9~10 inch even though I have usually gotten 8~9 inch for my dolls, as I wasn’t sure about the wig caps being black or not and wanted to make sure that I’ll have room for a fabric headcap. Kaito’s head is quite big and wide, and Luka has a very tall forehead, so a bigger size was a safer bet. I did actually try some of my older 8~9 inch Leeke wigs for Kaito and they didn’t all fit him (some did). I don’t remember if I’ve tried many wigs on Luka because she needs long bangs and most of the wigs I have are either bangless or have too short bangs or straight bangs… and none of those look good on her. ( ´△｀) But yeah, these wigs ended up being a good size for Kaito and Luka, they do stay on without fabric caps too.

Right, recently I got this small travel-size hair straightener from a local shop called “MiNy” (part of the “Tokmanni” group), they have a lot of cutesy stuff. This lil friend makes it MUCH easier to work on doll wigs, compared to my “normal” size straightener. (ﾉ^∇^)ﾉﾟ
