Wig Question - Volks Usa Aoi

I'm wondering what colour Wig this Aoi is wearing (image found on the Volks Usa website).

I *Think* this is right wig style, but is it the same/ right colour?

 

Thank you in advance!

If you e-mail Volks with the photo, they will tell you what wig it is. I have asked them questions like that before and they responded. However, I don't think that color you linked is right. It looks darker than that one. It looks like Choco Purple or Natural to me... Possibly Charcoal Brown. However at a first glance I thought of Choco Purple.

 

What confuses me is that I don't see that wig style in those colors? I think your best bet is probably to e-mail them and ask. They will probably verify the color and style as well as letting you know whether the wig is still available or not.

 

Hope this helps!

I did some looking on the Volks INC website and just like I thought this must be one of their discontinued wigs.

The style and dark color seem to match, or at least to me it does. ^_^

 

*Nothing but a wrong answer here.*

 

 

You'll have to do like Arienette suggested and email them to find out for sure.

Hmmm, I don't think that's right. W-92D was Volks' super-long wig -- it went all the way down to the ankles!

 

In the photos of Aoi, you can see this is a shorter wig, ending around her hips:

I'm pretty sure it's a non-standard wig. Normally when Volks uses a standard wig to model an outfit, they state the wig type and color on the Japanese page. The Japanese page for this outfit doesn't mention the wig at all.

Oh I didn't notice how long it was. Then nevermind, goes to show I don't know much at all and can't see.

Thank you arienette defectiveangel and cauldroness!

 

If i cant find the one aoi is wearing or if it is a non standard wig, the one defectiveangel suggested may work with a trim ^-^

 

 

Ill email volks about it though thanks!

I think it's that shaggy style one Oni-chan linked but in the discontinued "Natural" or "Choco Purple." But it's discontinued, so it might be hard to find.

I think Oni-chan & mitsuki are totally right about the style being W-142. The weird thing is, according to Volks' own website, W-142 was never offered in "Natural" or "Choco Purple." According to their chart, they're not discontinued colors for W-142 -- they're colors that W-142 has simply never been offered in:

On the Volks blog, when they introduced W-142 for DD, they state: "Rich Brown is the darkest color that we offer in this wig in this size..."

So maybe it's a one-of-a-kind wig, or maybe it was offered as a special wig at some kind of event? Seems like it might be terribly rare, unfortunately.

 

I'm really curious to see what Volks says!
