Where to get a new wig???

[MissCurlyCat]

Does any one know where I could get a new doll wig? I've tried looking at all of the craft stores near me but noting that would work! This is for a 18" doll so it will need a 11/12 wig, what ever that means. I've never done this before and I know some people on this boar do some doll restoring so you would know right? what do you usually pay for a new wig? Is there a certain material to watch or look out for in a wig?

Thanks!, MissCurlyCat

If you like to shop online you can go to the Kemper doll supplies sight. I have bought and used 2 Kemper wigs and find them to be very nice.

Did you try google or yahoo searches for doll wigs? I know two of the companies are Kemper and Monique.

Thanks for the great addvice!
If I were to make over a doll to look like Felicity would this work? I would have to trim it a bit of course!

Try looking through the
Kemper site, they have a lot of wigs. If that doesn't work, try Monique

I didn't know that.

I've bought eight or ten from Audrey's Dolls and have been very satisfied with both the quality of the product and the service. She has a large assortment from several wig manufacturers. I've even bought one human hair wig for a doll from her.
