CATS Wig Tutorial | CATS the Musical | Tilli Boom Cosplay

CATS wigs are definitely what I get asked about the most!
This is a part of a series on how to make a costume based off of CATS the Musical. In this tutorial I demonstrate how to make a CATS Wig out of yarn. Upcoming videos include warmers, tails, and makeup. I think you’ll find it quite magical!

    2 жыл бұрын

    Hi Ali! I would say depending on which cat you are doing you can get one skein of yarn per color. Some CATS like Victoria or Misto who have a lot of one color you may need more than one. But one thing of yarn per color should work well.

    Hi Robert! Apologies for the delay. I just counted the plugs on one of my wigs. I would estimate it is 118 yards of yarn. Since I used two strands of 9 inch yarn to make each plug. Let me know if you have any other questions!

    Hi! I haven't worked with another yarn specifically for the CATS wigs. But I have seen success in getting a tighter weave yarn brushed out. They used a wire pet brush and made sure to start fraying from the ends of the yarn first. She then used a hair straightener to help. I bet it would work similarly with natural yarn as well.

    Sure! Especially for cons I'd recommend theater makeup. It's a little heavier coverage, but it's made to withstand harsh lights, sweat, and long wears. my favorite brand is Ben Nye. I'm actually about to release a video that may help and will have specific product recommendations. The most important things I find are foundation (Ben Nye Cream Foundation), setting powder (Ben Nye Neutral set), and setting liquid (Ben Nye Final Seal). If you prefer street makeup I use Mac's Pro Longwear Waterproof Foundation and it's worked well at cons also.
