The wig comes already with the braids, the bangs need to be trimmed (they are quite long imo) and the ahoge needs to be styled to stand up. Color is exactly like the photo, the wig is not thin, it had good volume and length. If you have any questions about it welcome to check out my Instagram (marusera_yumeart) and/or Facebook (Marusera Yumeart Cosplay), I will be posting more photos! Photo by Carmen photo-cosplay
