mistyaera Posted October 8, 2012 So, I'm in the process of getting my first dollfie dream- she'll be here this week, actually, but I am worried about staining and all... First: Does anyone know if Crobidoll 9-10in. wigs will work on Rise Kujikawa? D: I've seen a photograph of her in one, but it wasn't a full shot so I couldn't tell if the fit was good or not. Second: Will 22mm eyes look okay in Rise? I wanted to get her a pair, but I'm scared they'll be too big. Third: Should I invest in a body stocking & headcap for her? Well, I'm investing in the headcap anyways, but I noticed the stockings do not give the arms protection so I'm worried. D: Thank you for any input or advice!

mitsuki Posted October 8, 2012 I am not sure about a larger wig like a 9-10 inch one on Rise. She has a smaller head than a lot of DDs. She also has quite small eye holes. I have seen a Rise or two with Twin Snow eyes in 22 mm and I think one person said they pushed the eyes up higher so they look better in the head. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think I may just get her one or two in 8-9 just to be safe until I know for sure. ^^ The eyes I'm looking at are actually from twin snow which is why I asked. That's good to know, though! I may order and give that a try. Thank you so much! Nothing here ~ Left the Hobby Previously Loved: Rise, Mariko, Yuki M., Haruka N., Aoko, Rin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mistyaera Posted October 8, 2012 Oh! Thank you so much for the reference picture! ^_^ I think they'll do just fine for her! Nothing here ~ Left the Hobby Previously Loved: Rise, Mariko, Yuki M., Haruka N., Aoko, Rin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ohsomoe Posted October 9, 2012 If your looking for a body stocking that gives arm protection then try the ones at cool cat, they have alot of variations and different styles, so it'll be easy to find one that gives protection for the arms. Hope you get her soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DarkAvenger696 Posted October 9, 2012 Hey I have Rise and omg does her wig ever stain!!! you definatly want to get a fabric head cap and maybe even a silicon one to hold the wig on (I just had the one and maaan my poor girl) also you don't need to worry about Rise-chan's arms as her uniform is lined in white ^___^ and her gray stockings don't seem to stain (mine havent yet) I hope this helps a bit and Congrats on your new girl! also I was able to put Yoko's default wig on Rise but it was a bit loose until I put on a fabric headcap Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

D: Hopefully I can get ahold of one before she ships. xD Volks is all out... Are there other places to buy them? Will a silicone headcap help (I already have one of them on the way when I placed her alt. wig order) And thank you so much for the headsize information! I went with a wigwing order instead of crobidoll first, just to be safe. ^-^ Nothing here ~ Left the Hobby Previously Loved: Rise, Mariko, Yuki M., Haruka N., Aoko, Rin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DarkAvenger696 Posted October 9, 2012 hmmm I dont know... I made mine with some extra fabric I had... and no I had just the silicone one on my rise but she still got stained so I think you may want to wait till you have both or just make sure you don't leave it on her to long, I dont know how long it took for my rise to stain since I only realized when I was trying Yoko's wig on her.. sorry I can't be of more help Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nekopon Posted October 9, 2012 Crobi doll 9-10 inches will work perfectly with your DD girls, I love them! They're high quality and looks great. They don't bend all out of shape... Also, Cool Cat has silicone and cloth wig caps if you're interested. http://us.sk-coolcat.com/front/bin/ptdetail.phtml?Part=other_39&Category=0 http://us.sk-coolcat.com/front/bin/ptdetail.phtml?Part=dd_02&Category=0 My Rise was stained through a fabric crap within a month.

I'll grab one from coolcat tonight. :3 I'll probably just take her out to try stuff on her rather than leaving it on her to be on the safe side... I intend her haircolor to be fairly light, so hopefully her new wigs won't stain (but I'll still use protection on them!) Crobi doll 9-10 inches will work perfectly with your DD girls, I love them!

Oh wow, thank you! I think I'll use both on her to give her extra protection! x3 I'll go ahead and order them so I can get them in. Also, thanks on the crobidoll information!! I love them, too, so I was hoping they'd fit. Wigwing has the perfect wig for her character, but I'll definitely place a crobidoll order when they (hopefully) restock to give her more options!

Nekopon Posted October 9, 2012 Oh right, here's a really poor quality picture (But will work!) of my Rise in a Crobi wig. SF Doll Meet August '12 by mintycafe, on Flickr Hope that helps! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mistyaera Posted October 9, 2012 AHH. THANK YOU SO MUCH. That helps a lot! Now I know I can get her some really gorgeous wigs from there!! x3 That's great news for me! I hadn't placed an order yet because I was scared they wouldn't. I really, really appreciate the reference picture! It helps so much! (She looks so beautiful in it. I'm so happy to be bringing this girl home.) Nothing here ~ Left the Hobby Previously Loved: Rise, Mariko, Yuki M., Haruka N., Aoko, Rin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jadepixel Posted October 13, 2012 Congrats on Rise! It sounds like you've already decided, but I just wanted to add about Crobi wigs- I have an 8-9" and it's a really tight fit! So I'd definitely get 9-10 size in the future. They are good quality though jadepixel doll lab jadepixel eye shop Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My Volks Charlotte wig fits perfectly on her which makes me extremely happy!
