Hello
I am Diwakar living in Bangalore India I am a learner of bonsai art. I recently bought juniper blue green scale type tree from nursery it was healthy when I bought it. After a week I did some serious root pruning, cutting the bigger root leaving only flare root and feeder root and then repotted the tree in to bonsai type plastic pot from nursery pot. I used home made bonsai soil. Before I repotted I did some pruning and also wiring the main branches from copper wire the previous day. I don't know whether its right or wrong the tree is drying out don't know what to do to save it.
Please help

Sounds like you did a lot of harm to that tree at once. I would not do all of these things in the same year. However it could survive it. Put it in the shade and water it as it needs it.

Hard to tell from hearsay only. Does not sound you gave it a lot of chance.
