Like another poster said, I'd recommend covering the nipples with something more nipple friendly than just tape. You can get nipple petals at Walmart, drugstores, online - tons of places! As far as actually taping the dress down, I'd go with a strong, double sided tape like Topstick or some wig tape (I prefer single pieces to rolls, personally). You can get wig tape/Topstick and petals at most beauty supply stores.
I have used both Topstick and wigtape for my wigs AND pasties for years and never had one slip off. Even after hours of go go dancing, everything was still firmly affixed.
I'd also contour around and between the boobs. Because they deserve to look as glorious as possible!
I'm not trans, but I have short hair that rarely grows. So I got a wig on a whim off amazon.
This is what it looks like

I went to a party with this wig on, and to the mall. Everyone commented on how much they loved my hair and totally shocked it was a wig. Look up ways to make wigs look more realistic (powder, maintenance, etc).
Seriously, wigs are totally fine and there's a TON of them out there that look super realistic. Plus, there's many reasons people wear wigs other than balding issues, so it's nothing anyone would likely call you out on.
This was the wig I bought. Only 17 dollars on amazon. I had to style it a bit, and give it a big haircut (I'm really short, this was really long). There's a lot of great ones out there that aren't terribly expensive, and if you want to super invest, there's real-hair wigs as well.
It's never EVER too late. And transitioning before puberty would, unfortunately, not have stopped the male-pattern baldness enough. So take this chance to be exactly who you want to be. You only get one life, so live it exactly the way you want to.
What up dawgs, I appreciate the comments (glad the outfit worked out)
I’m getting a couple messages regarding the fit. If you wanna be Igor you will need:

Hey! I actually did a marceline cosplay a couple months ago (althought different outfit of hers). I did it all for under 50$ by thrifting most of the outfit (and using my own jeans). A grey tank top you can probably get anywhere for really cheap.
For wig, I really recommend this one. It was cheap, held up no problem for an entire weekend of a convention, and looked way better than anything you'd get at a party store for the same price: Canada link, way cheaper for the US of course & how it actually looked on me as marceline
Hope that helps at least for the wig!
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005K49Y4Y/ref=oh_details_o02_s01_i00
Only $15! I still need to learn how to maintain it, but at least I know that replacements are cheap if I bungle it too badly.

As a rule of thumb if they don't show the whole wig on the mannequin, don't trust it. Bonus if they show someone putting on the wig and slaying it.
I just recently started wearing wigs regularly, so here's what I have to offer that I've learned recently.
First of all, you'll need a wig comb and cap, so be prepared to have one of those. I put my hair in pin curls under the cap, then put the cap on so that my hair doesn't look like a wild mess when I take the wig off.
Kanekalon is the best wig fiber, and it's not expensive. The one I'm wearing now is one I got on Amazon for less than $20, and everyone compliments me on it.
So things you should know:
Maybe this one? https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07FC7G9ML
This site Has very cheap wigs, but I'm not too sure on how good of quality they are :I
I would also recommend looking around Amazon, I found my wig on Amazon, and I believe the price is continually going up (I got it for $15) plus it's pretty decent quality
Good luck!
I ordered it here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B008GR4L18/
It's pretty long, so I got it trimmed by my new favorite stylist :)

I have this one. People have thought it was my real hair and were surprised it was a wig.
Here's the link for you, if that helps. Dunno what the heck is up with Reddit today!
Here's the main pieces I have

I think it's the same wig another girl was talking bout here the other day. It was $20 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B074MNT1Z1?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
No having your head bust! I do adore your username :) I am sending you mental chicken noodle soup (our vegan/veggie friendly fake chicken soup if you lean that way)
I am starting to have lots of wigs and no where to put them. This would help lots
Another solution to holding the straps in place at your shoulders and along your back would be toupee tape. I'm a burlesque dancer and use toupee tape to keep my clothing in place while dancing and even use it to keep my pasties (heavy, very rhinestoned!!) on!
My typical wear time is about 6-8 hours, with a lot of sweating and movement. I just make sure my skin is dry and lotion free when I put on the tape and I've never had any issues with it staying on. [This is what I use] (http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000F3DXLU/ref=mp_s_a_1_2_a_it?qid=1462717181&sr=8-2&refinements=p_85%3A2470955011&keywords=toupee+tape&pi=SY200_QL40).

This is my day-to-day wig. It came in three colors when I started buying it, but I'm not sure anymore. You'll have to look around on Amazon.
[This] (https://www.voguewigs.com/katherine-5974-wig-jon-renau.html) is my more expensive wig; it's a Jon Renau, style "Katherine," color code "8RH14" aka "Hot Cocoa" (look under "See More Colors"). You can see both the style and the color on the link, but unfortunately not together (it's out of stock). I'm not sure, but I think this is a popular item.
The Jon Renau is the wig I made my debut in: the first time I went out socially presenting female. It was special. :)
A few years ago I bought this wig for a Marceline costume. Now I’m trying to find another costume for the wig!
I got hit pretty hard by this pre-HRT, but between HRT, finasteride, minoxidil, and dermarolling my hair is pretty much entirely back. The temples are the only spot that didn't really come back, and there is actually quite a lot of baby hair there that I'm still hopeful will start growing thick, normal hairs like everywhere else on my head has (seems to be happening, albeit very slowly). For now I'm pretty content with my hair, but if I ever wanted to really reinforce a super feminine hairline all it would take is a small hair transplant of 1000-1500 grafts and I'd be golden.
For now I'm using a wig while I wait on my new hair to grow to a decent length. This is the one I currently use and I love it.
I am not sure which of the two it is, but here are the links:

Congratulations on all the good things! Wasting time on Reddit is good, right? ;)
Pumpkin!
Pretty wig. :3
Thanks for doing this contest! May your days be filled with cookies and lots of sleep.
This Amazon wig has great reviews and pictures from many women that have used them in their weddings as well. Congratulations and best of luck on your wedding. ❤️❤️❤️

All the world is a stage indeed!
I absolutely LOVE the stage life too! I'm in a sketch comedy group on my campus, here's a few pictures of our performances. I also spent some time on a speech team, which is a really complicated thing to explain, but basically we wear silly suits and perform really awesome monologues or public address speeches. And OF COURSE, I've been apart of the Vagina Monologues for the past three years. I directed this past year, and I'll probably be directing next year too. Here's some pictures of those performances.
Then there's all those high school performances, but those were weird and I was weird and I prefer not to share pictures from then...
A five dollar item? This is a cheap wig stand (how appropriate) that is on my "Lil Stuff" wishlist :-)
Thanks for the coolest contest ever! I've really enjoyed looking at the other entries. And your pictures ROCK too!
It is a lace front :) I got it off amazon, I would definitely recommend it. Here is the link

Looking at some of the amazon wigs, that's just the name of the wig seller's company. They add it to the beginning of a lot of their products. The store that sells them is TLTSHOP and they have other products like TLT Fairylights. You can also see in the description that it comes with a "TLT wig and a TLT wig cap". These kinds of companies normally add their shop name in the product name. Just like SWACC does for this wig or eNilecor does for this one.
If you look down at the product description it says that they're "TLT wig adopted 100% Matt high temperature fiber from South Korea, which is often known as Japanese silk." but they also state "Wig Material: Imported Japan Kanekalon".
TL;DR not a different material just a seller adding their name to the product name.
here!
That looks really nice on you! I suggest pulling it down a little more. It should sit at the top of your pointer finger if you put your pinky finger at the bridge of your nose.
Have you tried it with a wig grip? I find I feel more comfortable and secure when I wear a wig grip under my wigs. They are pretty cheap on Amazon. Search on YouTube on how to make a wig smaller/tighter. There are lots of tutorials that show you how to make them feel more secure.
Also, Amazon has some really nice, inexpensive wigs. I have an "It's a Wig" Konis or Justine that's really nice for $30.
This one looks similar to your picture and has good reviews.

I got a decent wig from Amazon that's a fairly decent price right here. Buy filing them in I mean getting some a brow pencil, brow gel, or brow pomade to fill in the brows with color. This is what I'm talking about.

I bought a few of these and they are nice and cheap.
Growing up mixed (Black and white) with a white father was a struggle. When my mom deployed for a year when I was a kid, he had to learn how to manage my hair. If he can learn, so can anyone.
For the dads out there, below are the steps to learning how to manage and style your daughters hair.
These tools will allow you to learn how to do your daughters hair with the confidence that you've perfected the style. For all of you dads out there, good luck!
I recently bought this wig. The quality is pretty amazing given the price (currently $9). It by no means passes for real hair, but IMO it looks as good as the wig I got from wigs-us.com for more than three times the price.
The trade-off for the shockingly low price is that it ships from China and took about three weeks to arrive here in the US. Also, I've been told these break down faster than more expensive ones. Regardless, at $9 a pop I was able to get a couple of different ones to experiment with colors and styles.
I'm not sure of my head measurement but I know it's larger than average. The aforementioned wigs-us wig doesn't fit super well, while the cheapie Amazon wigs actually fit around my scalp a lot better for some reason. I would highly recommend them for experimenting prior to investing in an expensive wig.
It’s a wig lol I’ll link it. But I have gotten my natural hair this color, but I went to a professional. wig

it's good for the first month...then it soon goes down hill from there(heat,tangle,etc).
I had two. The first one was super long and curly can be found Here
The second one was a shorter, but just as curly. Can be found here
They are cheap. So they didn't look too real, but that may be because I was used to seeing my colored hair. I'll post some pics in a minute.
Alright, here are some pics. With a few added bonuses of some coworkers wearing the long one and looking like terrible drag queens.

Cheap & easy to come by
Is this it?
Okay, so I've got a problem. I bought a wig but had to return it because it was too small. And I'm thinking that most wigs are going to be too small (hats never fit well). Measuring from my hairline to where my skull meets my spine is 62cm. Obviously this is going to drive the price up. I'm okay with a synth since I'll be wearing it 1-3 days a week. Curly/wavy brown, about 14-16 in. This is what I bought and I liked it but it was uncomfortably small. It hurt to wear and would start moving up my head since I have a large skull. I've tried looking but most places don't have an option to filter cap size or if they do, they only carry like four different wigs.
So, do you know of a shop that caters to
big brainedlarge skulled ladies?I just got one of the melody Susie wigs on Amazon. It was $15 and it's the best one I've had. Highly recommended for the cost.

Here's the thing about wigs: pick an appropriate and realistic style, color, and length given your clothing style, face shape, eyebrow color, and skin color, and you don't actually need to spend a ton of money. If something looks plausible, most people won't give it a second thought. The catch is that you might need to experiment a bit to get the right style. Get some cheap wigs off Amazon, borrow some from a friend, mess around with PhotoShop, (or do what I did and copy your sister's hairstyle).
This is a $14 synthetic wig for cosplayers: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B008GR4L18/ It happens to be the one I was wearing when I went in for my first HRT consult, during which I managed to surprise both my doctor and her intern by removing what they thought was my actual hair. I assumed a trans specialist who is herself trans would have seen enough wigs to immediately identify one, but nope.
Thanks! I haven't advanced too far into makeup yet, so I'm just making sure I get a strong base down before trying to do anything else. My wig was from amazon. It's this one. It's been a decent wig so far. I'm saving up for a higher quality one, but I'd recommend it for a good starter wig.
