Can you read?
Can we have a nail thread?
I am working on growing out my nails and I am using pretty nail photos to remind myself to use my cuticle oil every night.
Post your favorites pictures and tips for nails that go with different Jfashions.
i just started doing acrylics again. i really want to go to rounge in NYC for some awesome gal nails cause all i can get here are gems and similar things. but my salon has a lot of them. will post some inspo!
Wig thread.
Question: Is there any easy way to make sure the colors on a two-tone wig stay separated? I bought a wig that's half white, half dark purple and no matter how I put it on the white migrates to the dark purple and it ends up looking grey.
How would I cut a Sonico style wig or whatever this style is called?

Thanks anon! I just finished it. Thank god I have one of those on hand
Is there a website with a tutorial on how to cosplay as a generic SWAT team member?
Things like helmet type, BDU prices, tactical vest comparisons, boots, and all that?
I'm planning on going to Fanime as one for the many generic SWAT members seen in numerous anime.
I also love wearing uniforms and like the attention I get from girls when they see me.
>>8848128
No, that's the weapons board, I'm looking for cosplay guides.
I'm just gonna use some plastic guns and a banana for my pistol holster.
>>8848125
>Cosplay
Literally go to a surplus store and buy an outfit.
Fucking google whatever SWAT team you want to imitate to see the uniform.
I know its still 4 months away, but is anyone doing A=next despite the location change to atlantic city?
>was thinking of making an ANEXT thread
Thank you for being a step ahead, anon.
I'm going for sure, it's become a tradition between my close group of friends and I. We're just trying to find a place to stay (which our one friend is supposed to ask her mom about their timeshare in AC).
I've never been to AC and I'm used to the greenery and quiet of Somerset so I'm curious to see how things will turn out this year.
>actual black jack and hookers
>go to con and spend money doing nothing
Well now that it's in AC I no longer have to make the choice. Fuck Anext. They've been going downhill for years and they've almost hit the rocks on the bottom.
>>8845929
went for the fist time last year, had no idea that this had been going on literally down the street from me. I think that having the beach nearby will present some nice photo ops, but nowhere near the diversity in location that somerset had
what does /cgl/ say about masked cosplays?
>>8842525
They are hot and make whoever's wearing them extremely fuckable.
>>8842528
just as long there's a mask over their head right?
>>8842525
They should be reserved for big guys.
This mainly started because I was watching a tutorial that used this stuff. Badly translating the Portuguese it looks like just super glue, but the girl was putting her hands right in it without getting stuck. Is it like E600?
Similar strange international crafting materials thread. Plastimake was everywhere in Australia, but if you tried to find freezer paper to make transfers it was a fool's errand.
There's this Japanese cosplayer who seals all his props with this odd yellow glue that he waters down with solvent...
Does anyone know if Frog Juice from that tumblr post really works?
>>8841405
It just says 'rubber, plastics, cork, ceramics and metals'. I assume that because it doesn't say 'skin, fingernails' that the girl thought it was safe to shove hands into.
On their website it says that this specific glue is a cyanoacrylate and that it's recommended for flexible surfaces. It also says that starts to cure as soon as a thin layer is applied, and that it glues skin and eyes in seconds.
Tl;dr that girl is either a fucking idiot or she really, really doesn't like her hands.

deha vu, was this a meme before?

Not this time

i dont get this meme
Old one disappeared. Post your mail horror stories here, from missing parcels. props/accessories not arriving on time, bad packaging, damaged items in transit etc.
I'll start it off with this:
>ordered from WW a few times
>recent order, AATP Clock Rabbit Salopette in black
>package arrives and opens
>this is blue, not black
>flips the item over and sees a row of buttons
>Moi Meme Moite cardigan
Waiting a reply from WW about this.
>order dream skirt from Australia
>arrives in US, clears customs, gets to distribution center
>no updates for two weeks
>WELP
>guess I'll go… ask at the post office
>run into my mail carrier a couple blocks over
>"Hey do you have anything from Austra-- HOLY SHIT THAT'S MINE!"
>address was written on a customs dispatch which has been TORN IN HALF
Someone at the local post office could read the first three letters of my street, and sent it out for delivery even though my last name and the rest of my address were missing. If I hadn't caught the guy out in the street it would have been destroyed as undeliverable, the return address was gone.
TL;DR use plastic envelopes to attach forms to the outside of your parcels.
>>8825332
Wow, that was lucky! Was the skirt ok, anon?
I literally just got this email. Let me take you on a journey.
>December 5th, arts bovine has a "buy now and have it in time for christmas!" sale
>buy daki print
>after christmas husband says he got a tracking alert that something he ordered from japan was returned to sender.
>we just moved and the post office thought the house we moved into was uninhabited and bounced back all the mail we were supposed to get before christmas
>daki untracked
>wait until Jan 10 to email arts bovine asking if they got it back yet
>Jan 17 they say it finally showed up RTS
>I pay extra for tracked shipping this time
>dead air from arts bovine
>today get this
I just want to hug my video game husbando.

wow. hope mods get on that.
new thread since last one met bump limit
>>8840214
is there a tasteful way to wear casual lolita with a band shirt? It always looks so lame when I see pics pop up.
Competition seems pretty fierce this time around
>>8833495
The others can't hold up at all compared to this one.
Have you ever felt unsafe at a convention?
yes, it is why i will not go to NYCC again.
the crowds are insane and the line control makes me think of the inevitable stampedes when a fire alarm goes off. there is not enough space for the number of people they allow in the building.
Yes, but not for the reason that you would imagine
>be in a "not official" relationship with a huge manipulative and mental abuser
>finally end contact but he always is trying to contact me still
>go to convention with friends
>in one of the AA rooms that is busy and confined
>wtf he's here
>he spots me instantly and makes a full on b line to me
>confronts me right here right now holy shit
>"why aren't you answering my texts anon blah blah blah" has a huge scowl on his face
>thankfully my friends are here and know him as an acquaintance
>my friends bump in and start chatting him up lel
>I peace out of there as fast as I can
Nothing like being stalked at a con and paranoid of your crazy ex.
>>8827905
>b line
*bee line (fyi)
i have stalker relatives (one abusive, diagnosed schizophrenic and some enablers who believe all she needs is Jesus, not treatment). i have no contact with them but they are out of touch with reality and sometimes do shit like hire PIs to track me down.
every time i go to a convention, i am worried they will find me there. this is why i used to only cosplay using masks and why i would duck away from photos. i cannot vlog or post my face to social media until i get over my fear of these whack jobs.
fuck stalkers. get a restraining order if you can. i can't prove i believe myself to be at risk for harm, but i think you might have a chance at one.
i need to kek, post some you fagets
i can't stop laughing at these two
Learn to spell before posting, lurk moar faggot

Should I bother with pre-reg or am I better off just buying there?
>>8825367
wondering the same question. I got flight and room already paid for but I'm debating on badge pre reg or not.
>>8825367
Pre reg line takes less than half as long as reg line.
Reg line can take like 4 hours.
Pre-Reg for the love of all sanity.
