Smile Wigs!

Hi guys......does anybody know of a good wigmaker? I'm trying to find my "trademark" orange pigtail wig without having to make it myself this year. Anyone know of anybody that does special orders?

That is where I buy all my clown "stuff". If you call and talk to Steve (The Owner) he can help you.

I found this one on ebay...you might be able to cut it and put it in pony tails. Cheap and looks nice!

Thanks guys......I'll check into both of your suggestions. Who would have thought that finding someone to make a two ponytail wig would be so hard? I've done it three years in a row now, and frankly I'm sick of it.....but it's my trademark!!

Franco American has a line of wigs marketed as "Michele's" They carry a pigtail wig. It comes in Yellow, Red or Orange. The pigtails are braided and there are no bangs. I believe that there is enough hair so that bangs could be cut into the wig without ruining it.

Default Yak wigs

Hi Punkin.
I'm new to this forum and just now saw your post. We hand make yak wigs. We can make this wig for you if you want a really nice wig. As far as wigs go we aren't cheap(but not expensive for custom yak hair wigs), and we make a very nice product. We use real Yak Hair. The best hair to use for clown wigs and we can dye it to match the color you want. Our website is www.proclownwigs.com
