ASTL's date has yet to be set, on a side note, so I don't see how you know the date.

Your best bet would to, like said in past topics, buy on cosworx.com or amphigory.com. If you can't buy online, possibly fiind someone who can buy them for you even. Its well worth the money, becuase sometimes a bad wig really can bring down the whole costume. There is however, a few stores you CAN infact buy a kanekalon fiber wig. (Kanekalon being very high fibers) There is one by my house that is rather cheap, and while a lot of them are Halloween wigs, some of theirs is Sepia, which is a high quality brand. What area do you live in? Because I do know of a few places that sells high quality wigs.

I can suggest a few stores on ebay. Great quality wigs [Kanekalon fibers] for a cheap price. I go to onlywig and laurawu_123. I have always spent less than 30 dollars [including shipping, though laurawu_123 has free shipping if you buy her 'buy now' wigs] on my wigs and they are great. I bought a wig from cosworx for 45 bucks and I hate it so much. It was a waste of money. It is a great quality wig, but it just doesn't work for me.

But if you can't buy stuff online, then go to the wig store that Mimiako suggested.

Not going this year due to financial reasons, dates and location. Hope to see y'all in 2011! =)

Though a bit pricey but its what happens when you can't order online, there is one called US Trading CO in Fenton that sells very high quality wigs that are great for cosplays and the owners are super sweet and will talk to you about it.

About three things I was absolutely positive. First, Edward was a vampire. Second, there was part of him — and I didn’t know how potent that part might be — that thirsted for my blood. And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him. - Bella Swan, Twilight
