…fans thought the quality of the wig could have been much better.
When looking at her hairline, many believed the wig was obvious. Additionally, it appeared synthetic.
Many agreed that even if her wig and styling weren’t the best, Wonyoung’s visual power still shined.
- “The mismatched tone isn’t the issue—it’s just thrown on like a messy wig, so it looks really weird;; It’s her first performance, sigh”
- “The color is pretty and seems to suit her, but they threw on what looks like a cheap Temu wig;;; And why did they use the exact same makeup as when she had black hair? Only the eyebrows and hair color are different, while the rest of the makeup is identical, making the already awkward wig stand out even more.”
- “No joke, this looks exactly like the fit of a 5,000 KRW (about $5 USD) wig I bought on AliExpress and wore for the first time.”
- “Damn, it’s only saved because of her face. What was the hair and makeup team even doing..?”
- “Looking at the hair alone, maybe they could’ve made it look more natural? Still, she’s so pretty that it creates a forgiving vibe overall.”
