At least 1000 are trolls watching for the stupid shit GLW does.... but holy shit. That many stupid lolis? That's funny.

How?! Arda struggled to get 4,000 and their wigs are a lot better in quality and price!

Itas. If you ever scroll through their customer gallery its literally filled with them.

>>5218155
It's because GLW advertises better, has better pictures of their wigs, lets literally anybody who buys their wigs model for them (for free btw), and generally their wigs tend to appeal to more people even -outside- the cosplay/lolita community. Especially when you consider their split and rock star wigs collections.
I've honestly never had a bad experience with them. If their wigs get a bit snarly then I fix it. If I find the same wig for cheaper on eBay, I'll get it. I don't treat it like a big deal.
>inb4 hurr anon don't say your good experience with them because other people have had worse

Every time I try to point out how much they suck I get snotty, know it all remarks from people.

What happened to JellyCandies, if that was the right name (I know it was Jelly something)? Did that store ever get set up?

they keep the page very entertaining and geared towards their loli customer base

They're a step up from party wigs but as expensive as higher quality wigs. The mark up on them is just ridiculous.

>>5218146
You guys do know that there are services that focus on gathering endless amounts of fans? They most likely used such a service.

I know it's cosplay-oriented, but I prefer Epiccosplay. The shipping's fast and the wigs are really nice.

And of course there's using your own hair. Unfortunately not a lot of people know how to style it properly, resulting in really dead looking hair.

I love how everytime there is a GLW bashing party on here, Arda and jelly candie "anononymously" drop their names. It'll be a matter of minutes before Chokalate goes trying to get attention for herself.

>>5218223

wat

Not name dropping, I'm not affiliated with jellycandy at all, I was just reminded because I saw the original thread where the girl who set it up showed that GLW's wigs are actually worth about $15. She was going to sell them for a wayyy smaller markup and I was excite but I don't know what became of her :c

>>5218223
jelly candies hasn't been mentioned for quite a while, and honestly they've dropped off the face of the planet so it's pointless for them to drop their own name (plus it was Anonymouse that mentioned it, not a random anon) and I mentioned arda because I'm genuinely surprised they struggled to get 4,000 fans when they're a popular company within the cosplay community.

>>5218223
Arda is always promoting themselves on /cgl/. When someone has criticism about their wigs on one of their threads you suddenly see walls of snarky, intrusive text saying why their quality is just king shit. Honestly, their service isn't bad but they really strike me as an abrasive group trying too hard to make it. Kind of why I don't like them.

>>5218243

hi GLW!

Tempted to order some of Arda's wigs through their sale. Hope they're as good as you guys say they are.

>>5218253
>inb4 HI HURR GLW!
God dammit.

>>5218255
>Hope they're as good as you guys say they are
Arda threads on here are usually 2/4 people complaining about their wigs, 1/4 saying they like them and the other 1/4 being someone from Arda wigs posting in the thread trying to advertise

>>5218243
I've never seen that and I read a lot of wig threads on here.

Also how come every time a GLW thread comes up, someone always starts jumping up and down about how other companies are trying to advertise their own wigs? Maybe if GLW was a better company people wouldn't have all these horror stories.

>>5218265
Ah, maybe I'll try somewhere else then. I just hate buying things from only a picture rather than being able to actually feel and try stuff on.

>>5218255

I think the other anon had a point when she said other wig companies always try to promote themselves while 4chan is bashing GLW.

>>5218255
Arda's okay. They're best for spiking and speed, not lolita, fairy kei, and ita.
>>5218235
Jelly Candies quit because the wigs were okay and just okay. I know that one of GLW's supplier is selling freelance on ebay for $30.

>>5218283
No, it's more a case of GLW is a risky company to buy from so other anons give advice regarding other companies to buy from.

>>5218273
There was Arda wig thread a couple of days ago. Where were you?

>>5218146

Holy crap that's a lot of fans. They can't be all bad.

>>5218146

It's obvious glw knows what their doing on facebook. They have around 5 posts per day with some kind of interesting photo attached.

>>5218243
I kind of like that about that. they're proud and truly stand behind their work. They're wigs would be perfect imo if they were softer less coarse but that's probably a far off request.
GLW just seems very "Okay you like it? Shut up now, we're the best you have nothing else to say."
Arda has problems yes, shipping delays and small mixups, but they take responsibility for it.
GLW on the other hand...:
Also (I'm guilty for buying from GLW I'll admit it.) If you try leave feedback on their storepage, it has to be approved by them so most reviews probably haven't been left because they feel it isn't kiss assy enough.

>>5218363
There's a properly negative review of them on egl but they were so quick to get their white knights in to bash the poor girl that it probably scared off anyone else.

>>5218358
If by interesting you mean hilariously ita, then yes.

>>5218377

you really think they post itas? there's another thread right now on their customer coords, but that's a customer platform, not really their company image. Unless pixie_late and ciara are itas, what are you referring to?

>>5218374
There are about 10 reviews negative and positive on lj about them and 2 on coscom.

>>5218377

Jelly isn't pretty and more ita than anything. I bet you would jump at the chance to be one of their muses if they asked.

>>5218390
The customer images not the muses. It shows that a lot of itas buy from them. That last coordinate contest had a lot of itas in it as well.

>>5218425
Don't insult me. I'm not a sell out.
If those girls wanna spend $00 on party grade wigs for 15 minutes exposure only to be blocked out when they find something better, go on.

>>5218452

Sell out? LOL. We're talking about a wig company, not a record deal.

We were all itas at one time. Being a good loli is not easy and can be very expensive. A lot of girls get called ita with no cause. Some even for wearing Bodyline. I almost wish that term would go away because it makes so many girls less fortunate than the brand whores feel like garbage.

Arda may be better quality than GLW (I don't actually know, I've never seen an Arda wig in person), but I'd rather buy from GLW simply because all of Arda's loliable-styled wigs only come in really fugly color combinations. GLW has some ugly color combos in their collection, too, but at least they have a few nice ones to balance it out. I've only seen one or two of Arda's wigs that would look anything other than completely ita in a lolita coordinate.

>>5218582

I totally agree.

>>5218582
Which ones do you like? I'm sure anon knows of a few other wig companies that do similar.

>>5218624
>>5218582

I bet they'd add more if you told them that.

>>5218650
They'll see this thread and get wind of it.

Also, besides having a better color selection I wish they had a better variety of lolita styles, especially with the pigtail clips.

>>5218146

You girls make it sound like coming up with good designs is a cinch. It's not that easy to come up with tasteful designs that appeal to a very finicky clientele. Arda's specialty is moldable base wigs. Cosplayer designer + lolita wigs = ita.

>>5218695
>good, tasteful designs
You mean the same base+pigtail combo and tacky color combos they shit out?
>finicky clientele
Whenever anyone is the least bit "finicky" they get ignored and then attacked by the fans. GLW only wants praise so a lot of their customers are ignorant about wig quality.

Speaking of GLW....
Does anyone know where I can find a wig like this? I've tried but most of the ones I find are too curly or not the right shade. D:

FUCK Arda's Delilah wig is nice. But does Apple Red look anything close to Yoko's hair color?
I don't see any other wig I'd be able to get...

>>5218209

How do i find these fan gathering services? I have been struggling getting people to become a fan of my page on Facebook for my lolita style bows. Only 23 so far and I know most of them :(

>>5219057

Do they even exist? Why would you want random fans when your selling something so niche? Sounds like money down the drain to me. That's why the other poster saying glw must hire a svc is totally ludicrous. WTF would random dudes have use for a pink lolita wig or any wig for that matter?

>>5218734
you could possibly buy a curly wig then use warm water to relax the curls into waves?

This thread. Wow. I've never read a thread about GLW before. I didn't know you guys talked about Arda so much in them. Maybe I should read them more often?

I mean... maybe I should trip in them more often so that it doesn't look like I'm anonymously whiteknighting myself over and over. Give it more variety right?

>>5218668
We aren't lolita's at Arda, so when we saw people liked the split wigs we just got what colors we liked and hoped people would suggest new ones. We're slowly talking to more lolita's at cons to get a better idea of what they want. We're actually trying really hard right now to make a minty green color in our fibers because everyone has told us they would like to see it.

Sage for Kinda advertising

>>5219099

Hey! Quit assuming things you know nothing about. I am a "dude" who was paid to fan glw. Funny thing though, I did end up buying a pink loli wig and now I'm a full-fledge Bro-Lo. Guess I just got jealous of all the pretty dollies on their page.

>>5219115

"I've never read a thread about GLW before."

Nice try, Arda. You're on every thread on CGL, it's become a joke.

>>5219139
You caught me!

>>5219148

Hell, at least he and Chokelate are honest about and open about their shameless self promotion. GLW has their whiteknights do all their dirty work.

>>5219159
>he
..............lol

>>5219159

glw shamelessly self promotes too, they just do it to their 60,000 Facebook fans. Haven't you been on their page? It's a loli lovefest.

>>5219123

So how's that pink wig working out for you?
