II. How to choose the right wig color?
A silver-white or extremely light blonde wig will give you an exact Ciri appearance. Here's how to match her several versions:
Silver-white: Ideal for a style influenced by video games.
Pale platinum: Ideal for a look influenced by Netflix.
Ash blonde: Fit for a look influenced by books.
Length of the wig.
Select a wig that is 14 to 18 inches long to match Ciri's shoulder-length hair. Get a 20-inch wig if you want a longer, Netflix-style wig.
Wig type.
Lace front wig: For a hairline that looks natural, particularly around the forehead and temples, the lace front wig is the best option.
Synthetic wig: Better for novices because it's easier to handle and typically pre-styled.
Human hair wig: Costlier, but you may use heat tools and style it anyway you like.
III. Detailed instructions for hairstyles for Ciri.
It's time to style the wig after selecting the appropriate one. This easy tutorial will help you get Ciri's ideal hairdo.
Tools you'll need to prepare.
Mannequin head or wig stand.
Heat-resistant wig (if you want to curl it)
Fine-tooth comb.
Wide-tooth comb.
Hairspray.
Pomade or hair gel.
Elastic bands.
Curling iron or flat iron.
Styling steps.
Get the wig ready.
Put the wig on a mannequin head or wig stand.
To remove any knots from the wig, gently comb through it.
Create loose waves:
Loose waves can be produced using a curling iron if the wig is heat-resistant (most human hair can).
Break your hair up into little sections and curl them away from your face. Before letting go, hold each curl for five to ten seconds.
You may make waves with a synthetic wig by using hot water or steam, if you don't have a human hair wig.
Create the side braid:
Select a little piece of hair from the head's right side.
Beginning close to the temple and working your way back, braid it loosely.
Use a little elastic band to hold the braid in place.
To give the braid a richer, more textured appearance, gently pull it apart.
Tousle the hair:
For a more natural look, gently tangle the hair with your fingers.
To add extra definition to the braid, dab it with hair gel or pomade.
Complete the look:
To maintain the style, lightly mist the hair with hairspray.

IV. Hair adornments and additional accents.
Although Ciri often wears her hair in a plain manner, a few hair accessories can add some flair.
Leather or twine wraps: For a more tough, warrior appearance, add tiny wraps to the braid.
Silver hair rings: Attach tiny silver rings to the braid for a more intricate look.
Face scars: Be sure to include room for the scar across her face if you're creating a version of The Witcher 3.nbsp;
V. Hairstyle-appropriate makeup advice.
Your cosmetics should go well with the hairstyle in order to complete Ciri's persona. Let's concentrate on this:
