Hello all! I found this 7-8" wig on an Etsy listing that is absolutely perfect for one of my dolls, however this pinkish color in the 7-8" size is out of stock. I'm not sure if it will ever be back in stock... I really have my heart set on this sort of pinkish/strawberry blonde color and this specific vintage hairstyle (especially the wave curls along the forehead and sides of the head!) Does anybody know of any wigs similar to this one that are available in the 7-8" circumference size? Thank you!! ♡
Oh that wig is gorgeous. I found the same listing from a different seller here (but it's also sold out), which makes me think this is probably a wig from Taobao. If you're able to, maybe you can have a look through there?
It’s definitely a taobao wig. If you want to save $20-30 dollars it’s probably cheaper on TaoBao. That said if you just want the wig itself and nothing else once you factor in domestic shipping, agent fee and international shipping you will be paying around the same amount anyway from Etsy. I think your best bet would be to message both sellers on Etsy and see if they can get the taobao maker to make more. Sometimes they will mark something as out of stock on Etsy if it isn’t ready to ship but it is a preorder on TaoBao so I would ask them if the maker is willing to make more (you would likely have to wait a month or two).
In fact I just found the Taobao link to the wig, and yes they don't have the color you want in stock now. The price is about 30 dollars without shipping. Pre-order is available though. I think you can message the Etsy seller and make a pre-order there, provided that using Taobao is inconvenient and time costly. Hope this might help.
Yep, if you're interested the taobao link is here. They have a few other styles that are very similar too. That color isn't in stock right now, but the shop says the construction period is 15 working days.
Hrmm, you might want to consider either styling it yourself through youtube tutorials or finding a stylist to commission. I'd recommend watching Hexian who really loves making dolls with these vintage hair-dos. Best of luck.
Thank you! I think I'm going to message the Etsy seller and see if they're willing to do a pre-order for me. My Chinese isn't good enough yet to ask the Taobao merchant directly yet.
I'm going to message the Etsy seller to ask if they're willing to ask for a pre-order on Taobao. Thanks for the advice!
