Looking at all of these, I feel they are right in their ranking. The fan favorite can't even cut or use a lacefront properly for the parts that rest on your actually skin. Definitely not a winner even if the designs are nice, bu they are also safe. Don't show too much variety aside from 'pretty' looks.
2nd place has good ideas and can make a wig look clean enough, but there are certainly issues with the art inspired piece.
Then you have 1st place who you can see knows how to take even the flattest of wigs and can make them look fluffy and full without them looking poorly executed. Its hard to get the fluffy look in the first photo on the bangs without teasing the fuck out of a wig like Junko cosplayers. The middle image of their's looks awesome and very intricate with the weaving, and then the last photo.. If that tail ALSO hair? Thats really good.
Honestly no one deserves the win more than the 1st place. Everyone is placed correctly.

You must have missed the last thread. The entire round was disappointing compared to the contestants' previous work and previous years' finals. The judges chose the right order though.

What, last year's finals I thought were really bland and dull?
