Gothic Lolita Wigs/RockStar Wigs Review - Ombre Alexa Pink to White Fade


I got this wig from Gothic Lolita Wigs/RockStar Wigs, and I have to say, this wig is gorgeous. It is super soft, and I love how the pink fades to white. The wig is not very shiny, which surprised me because the stock photo on the website make it look super shiny. I'm also very glad that they came up with this style because originally, I was going to buy the same color scheme but from the rhapsody collection, and I was not looking forward to straightening all of that hair. This wig came with side swept bangs, which were cut into a fringe (like seen in the picture up top).

The hair is very long and has a medium thickness. I wish it was a little thicker, but that's only because I naturally have very thick hair and I'm not used to hair thinner than that of my own. This hair actually feels very feathery and light. I wish the color was slightly darker so it would compliment my skin more. My makeup makes my skin look darker, and when I have this wig on in combination, my face has this yellowy/orange tint, which looks awful. If I don't put on any concealer or foundation, it looks okay. I just need to buy those things in a lighter shade, which is almost impossible because I buy the lightest concealer and foundation in the brand I use already. It's frustrating. So, for those who have darker skin, I wouldn't recommend this wig. It looks best on those with very pale and whitish skin kind of like a porcelain doll. But really, there are no rules. This is just my opinion. You should do whatever you want, and if this wig makes you feel beautiful, who am I to stop you from buying and wearing it? I am just giving you a heads up, and my personal view of it. I'm not telling you want to do.

For the top of the wig, there a very slight skin top, but more so a point where all of the hair meets up. It only looks fake if you stare at it constantly. Honestly, if you are wearing this wig on public, I don't think someone will get close enough and/or at the same time stare at you obnoxiously to even notice or care. For me, I love wearing hats, especially beanies, so it's not a big deal. If you feel worried that people are going to notice, wear a hat, headband, hair clips, etc. You can even curl or make your wig wavy to give it a realistic texture to make it look less fake.
 
I also recommend using a beige/skin-toned wig cap while wearing this wig just in case the hair separates enough to where you can see underneath the hair. Though, I recommend that with all light-colored wigs. I haven't had that problem with this wig yet or any of Gothic Lolita/RockStar's wigs so far. It's just a precaution I always take.
 
Shipping was very fast. I got it two days after processing, which is awesome!

Outfit of the Day #2



 
Rhapsody in Rose Wig: Gothic Lolita Wigs/Rockstar Wigs/Dolluxe
Kimono Cardigan: Forever21
Crop Tank-top: Forever21
Shorts: Wetseal
Shoes: Deb
Elephant Necklace: Forever21
 Chinese Symbol Necklaces: Yak and Yeti Shop in Disney World's Animal Kingdom
Bracelets (except Buddha and braided ones): Deb
Headband: ????/Christmas gift
For this outfit I was going for a foreign, more so Japanese, look. I chose the kimono cardigan as the base and chose the other articles of clothing to match it, trying to keep a balance of dark blue and black. Nothing really inspired this look. I just thought those items went well together, so not very much effort went into this. Although, this outfit would definitely look better if I had something on my legs like over-the-knee socks, perhaps thin white ones. Not quite sure.

Outfit of the Day

 
Rhapsody in Rose Wig: Gothic Lolita Wigs/Rockstar Wigs/Dolluxe
Jacket: Forever21
KISS Tank-top: Wetseal
Plaid Skirt: Milanoo
Black Combat Boots: Deb
Bow Headband: Forever21
Bracelets (except Buddha and braided ones): Deb
Chinese Symbol Necklaces: Yak and Yeti Shop in Disney World’s Animal Kingdom
Cross Charm Necklace: Wetseal
For this outfit, I was inspired by the anime Rosario + Vampire. The skirt it part of the school uniform from that show. I got the idea to match the hair with this outfit from Moka, another character from that anime. Her pink hair goes well with the yellow plaid skirt, which is why I used those two things as the base for the outfit. Since the skirt gave off this punk rock look by itself, I just went along with that style and added more clothing in that style. The "KISS" tank-top was perfect for this style, and the black with subtle amounts of red and white matched great with the skirt. As for the jacket, I wanted to add more contrast to the original color scheme (yellow, black, red, and white)but at the same time keep with the style. This jacket was perfect because it gives off this rock vibe with the denim, studs, and graffiti-like writing on the back. I added black combat boots and bow headband to keep the balance of black going. The bracelets on my wrist are to add a little color, and the necklaces were added to make my neck not look so bare and plain. I usually stock with silver jewelry because it goes better with my skin than gold. If I were to add anything it would either be black or grey torn up stockings or black over-the-knee socks. I do feel like my legs are a little bare.
