Styling a wig to look big and wavy
|
1. Here you can see the pinned up the wig on its a wig
block. It has been washed and been let to dry. Do not try to
roll up a wet wig, as it tangles when wet. |
2. I have chosen a medium-sized roll to curl up the hair. |
3. I am taking a small part of the hair for every roll
choosing the angle I put it in carefully. |
4. Before rolling it up I take a small amount of hair
mousse on the hair to help set it. Don't overdo it! |
5. The angle and direction of every roll is carefully
considered to produce the final hairstyle.
When all the hair is rolled up I cover it with a thick hair net. |
6. I then put the wig block and wig in the dryer at the
highest setting for 45 minutes. when done let it cool down
for at least 10 minutes. |
7. Take out all the rollers from the hair. |
8. The choice of brush is very important. You need to
use a brush where the pegs can bend. If the brush is too
stiff you might risk breaking the lace. |
9. Don't be afraid to brush the hair a lot. The more
you brush it the better the waves will be. |
10. When brushing the wig I quite often use some shine
spray. This makes the tops of the wig easier to handle as
they are then following your brush better. |
11. So now it's your turn to try! |
12. Have fun and good luck! |
