Hey! I love this tutorial and plan on using it for my Toph cosplay, but I'm having a problem finding the foam. I know you said you bought yours at Joann's but when I look online all I find is super expensive ($50+) foam. Is it possible if you, or anyone, could link me to the type of foam you're using?

I can guarantee that's the right kind, its very expensive! Use a coupon!

Yesterday I started making this and it's going really well so far! :D

The only issue was that the foam was *expensive*, but luckily it was on sale.

Thank you so much for making this awesome tutorial! <3

Thank you so much for making this! I was planning on doing a Toph cosplay, but I had no idea how to make the wig. This is the best tutorial I've found. When I make the wig, I'll definitely use this tutorial!~ :D But I have one question. Do you remember about how long were the extensions you used? Do I have to use super long extensions or do normal length extensions work?

Do you think this tutorial would work for Katara's hair when she's dressed as Aang's "mother" ([link])?

i'd suggest trying the normal odango method first, but you may not be able to find styrofoam large enough [link]
