    Wigs for Bambicrony?

    Bambi Crony's web site lists their 10.5 inch dolls' head size as a 6.2, but many people are saying that size 6-7 wigs are too big for them. What's the final word on wig size? Also, could anybody measure their heads around the head cap to tell us the exact measurements (I'd like to know if 6.2 inches is accurate).

    Some people are saying that size 5.5 or 6 wigs fit better. Thoughts?

    it seems based on these two threads:

    that 5-6 is best, and 6 is fine, and 6-7 is too big.

    I just measured around Gaspard's little skull and got 6.25"
    I'd go for smaller and stretch.

    The Leekeworld 6/7 ate his whole head, but those aren't stretch caps.

    cancan_jseries, kemper and Monique all have smaller sizes.

    Thanks for the links. I swear I did several searches on this forum for both "bambicrony" and "bambi crony" and I STILL didn't find those posts. I hate duplicating posts ... I would never do it on purpose. Maybe I spelled the name wrong on one of my searches? Don't know.

    ANYWAY ... you have all been very helpful.

    I have also made wigs for several of the Bambie Cronies around here
    they do have a tiny head ...the Leeke wigs I had were too large
    which was a shame I love Leeke wigs
    CanCans were a nice fit
    but I LOVE to see these girls in fur wigs
    (search dosnt work for me either most of the time either )

    I ordered two wigs in advance of my Bambicrony's arrival--a Monique 5/6 called Pinky, and a mohair wig by Global called Penny (6/7).

    The 5/6 Monique wig is snug to get on, but it stays. The Global wig has a little velcro adjustment, so it'll stay, though not as tightly.

    Bambicrony sent me a blonde wig, which I like, except the wig cap is *huge*. I think I might be able to do some sewing machine surgery on it, though.

    I was looking at the cancan site

    it has both 5.5 and 6 size
    so 5.5. is best then??

    big fat bummer all come with bangs, I wanted a bangless long straight white one to mod myself, I thought that I was looking for something rather simple but apparently not

    Bunny - Are you looking for one like my doll has?



    It's pretty much white and has no bangs, though I don't know if it's as long as you want it to be.

    I got it from www.moniquewigs.com You can find lots of different styles there and most give you many color options. Bleached blonde will give you a rather white color.

    You can see one of them here on page 2

    I'm having fun fitting Sisley *and* my Cherishdoll Alley cone. some 5-6 wigs work, some don't fit either girl. I've ordered a couple of Monique wigs in a 6-7 for Sisley, since the ones in 5-6 were almost tight, and one didn't fit at all. I've wound up with a pink Pinky in 5-6 that doesn't fit either girl. I have one beautiful tinybear wig that fits, thanks to the wet/stretch thing, and I have a size 6 Cancan wig on the way. But today I sent my Sisley head off to be painted, so can't try anything else on her for about 3 weeks.

    Thank you! I'm not sure where you could find pure white wigs.. I haven't really seen any. Have you tried eBay? Or you could put up a WTB thread in the Marketplace asking to buy one of the full-set wigs, which I'm sure some people will be willing to sell.

    And I keep hearing that Leeke wigs are just too big on BC dolls, so I wouldn't waste your money if you have no other doll you could put it on instead

    I have a Can Can 6-7 on one of my bambicrony girls with a Silicone wig cap (like here http://www.denverdoll.com/wigcaps.html). The wig was a bit too big without the cap and now it fits like a dream. I love love love these caps. =D

    If I want to get a Monique Ginger style wig, should I get a 5-6 or 6-7? It sounds like different styles fit differently, and I don't want one that's too small! Does anyone have one for their Bambicrony?

    I had a Ginger somewere ...looks around confused

    I would go for the 5-6
    thats what size I had for my Unoa , and it was a tight fit

    so would fit the BC

    6 to 7 would be far to big

    Here's one!
    It would be slightly large, but you can use the rubber band trick or one of the wig caps mentioned in an earlier post to hold it on.
