It’s now easier than ever to find beautiful wigs for sale, both in-person at hair stores and online. Despite this convenience, some people prefer to create their wigs. However, making a DIY wig can be a complex undertaking.
This is especially for beginners who may have questions about how to make a wig without closure, or how to make a wig using bundles. Patience and knowledge are essential when it comes to wig-making.
Choose the Wig Type You Want
Before making a wig closure from scratch, you must decide on the type of wig you want to create. You have several options to choose from, including a full lace wig, lace closure wig, or lace frontal wig.
Additionally, you will need to select the type of hair you want to use, which can either be human hair or synthetic fiber. Typically, raw human hair is the preferred choice, as it provides a more natural appearance.
Materials and Tools You Need
To make a wig, you will need several materials, including a mannequin head, a tripod stand, a hair weave (either curly or in a body wave pattern), a wig cap, measuring tape, a wig comb, scissors, and needle and thread. It’s important to measure your head accurately to ensure that the wig fits perfectly.
Preparing Hair Net
To begin preparing the mannequin head, securely attach it to the tripod stand. Once in place, carefully place the wig cap over the mannequin head, ensuring that it fits correctly. Adjust the straps as necessary to achieve a proper fit.
Next, delicately mark the hair tracks over the net cap, indicating where to sew in the hair net. With these steps completed, the mannequin head is now ready for the hair net to be sewn in.
Sewing A Wig
When it comes to choosing hair extensions, you have the option of synthetic or human hair. Human hair is generally preferred for its comfort. To begin the process of making a wig, you need to follow the hair tracks and carefully sew in the hair extensions onto the cap, ensuring a tight fit.
You can either sew in the lace closure before or after completing the hair weave. Starting with the closure part can give your wig a more natural appearance.
Style Your Wig
Once you have learned how to create the perfect wig and have made one, the next step is to properly comb it to achieve a polished look. It’s important to use a wide-tooth comb to minimize tangles and shedding. Depending on your preference, you can adjust the wig’s style to complement your complexion or personal style.
Human Hair Bundles with Closure
Human hair bundles with closures for humans provide an excellent means of enhancing the length, volume, and texture of one’s hair, all without the typical sew-in difficulties. These bundles come in various lengths and textures, allowing one to choose the option that best matches their unique style.
With the added benefit of a closure, the hair remains protected and free of tangles. Furthermore, the application process is straightforward, and the final result appears entirely natural.
Body Wave Bundles with Closure
Body wave bundles with closure are an excellent method to achieve natural-looking waves and long-lasting volume for your hair. These bundles utilize high-quality hair extensions that are thick and full, providing a voluminous appearance and texture to your hair.
A closure piece is included in the process to cover the top of your head, resulting in a seamless blend between your natural hair and the extensions.
Glueless Closures
Glueless closures are the easiest to install, as they don’t require any glue or adhesive. They are typically made with human or synthetic hair, and the hair is knotted onto a thin invisible base. This type of closure is great for those who want a quick and easy installation process.
