Where can I get a Pippi Longstocking wig for dd1?

I'm looking for a Pippi Longstocking wig for dd1 (Pippi has red plaits, but alternatively if I can get a long red wig I could plait it myself).

DD1 is not yet 5 so I think a wig designed for adults would be too big, and I can't find any suitable children's fancy dress wigs.

Does anyone know where I could get something suitable?

I wonder whether you could pin in an adult wig.

(sorry - UK one)

melpomene....snap!
I'm looking for the same for dd,6.
I think the important bit is the plaits sticking out, isn't it, like in JackieNo's link?

MrsBadger · 19/02/2008 22:13

Califrau is v clever

JackieNo · 19/02/2008 22:15

Could you get a blonde one and spray it red?

Thanks, I had looked on UK eBay but hadn't thought of looking on the German one! That wig looks possible - not sure from the pic if the plaits stick out but maybe I could put wire in the plaits to make them stick out a bit more...

There are some v cute Pippi pyjamas and T shirts on the German eBay too...

I also came across these pics of Pippi costumes while searching earlier - very cute.
