Review: TRESS UP Queens of Pop


Along with the Queens of Pop Royalty store, came the new Tress Up collection, also inspired by the Pop Queens theme. It's a good thing for non-Royalty members to have something for themselves along with this theme because I acknowledge there are a lot of members who style their dolls according to existent 'Pop Stars' and celebrities of that kind. Well, regardless of my personal music preferences I think this is an overall great idea.

The hairstyles themselves, they're fairly good, they're really nicely highlighted and well made. It's hard for me personally to find a good hairstyle that'll frame my doll's face correctly, so I'll just judge the wigs for what I've seen on other dolls or mainly by how they look on the models.

I think the Britney, Katy, Taylor and Madonna hairstyles are just WHAT THE HECK. There are much better Britney Spears hairstyles that could have been used, like the simple wavy style she's been wearing (we already the option to go bald on Beauty Parlour), the Katy Perry hair is just a no-no for me, with those flowers.. - doesn't do it for me. The Taylor Swift hair looks nice but when you put it on it's just - ?? - doesn't fit right. I wish they'd made a simple NICE curly hairstyle, since people seem to have been diggin' a lot that Stardesign hair (don't know the designer's name), but I guess it's better that they didn't do it so the designer can still profit. The Madonna hair is just *boom* NO. Unless you're a Madonna inspired doll it'll seem like a 80s baby hairstyle with the bow. Also, I doubt the 10 year olds that join Stardoll these days will even know who Madonna is.

The Lady Gaga hair is just a big disappointment in a way. It's pretty stylish with the ombre ends and all but in the model it's presented multicolor and when you put it on it just doesn't have any colors (sorry for the nudity in my pic haha). Although I must admit, in my opinion it's looks a hundred times better without the multicolor fiest. The Beyonce hair could be better if the back hair was full straight and the Lady Gaga I think it's pretty nice.

The two top choices for me would be the Rihanna and Nicki hairstyles. They're naturally presented in black but when you put them on with another hair color they keep amazing shadowing and highlights (they look AMAZING in orange/red). The Rihanna wig should look good on everyone because it's short and you can shape it to your face.
My highlights:


Did you like/buy any Queens of Pop hairstyles?
