How To: Make A Lace Closure Wig Detailed For Beginners + Plucking & Styling W/ 5X5 Closure

Hi guys welcome and welcome back to my channel, it's your girl or whatever. Today, i'm going to be showing you guys how to make a closure wig, here's the bag of stuff that i use. I keep everything that i need in this bag. My little wig bag you're going to need needles. I have multiple needles because i make wigs professionally. If you want to know about that, you can see my information in the description bar also. This is my thread. I have a jumbo one, but if you're not that into making wigs as much, you probably want to use a smaller one which is more affordable, and i also use these pins right here. My mom kind of give them to me they're fabric pens. I know people usually use t pins, but these work for me and then i like to have elastic for whenever i um sew it onto the wig, because it'll make the wig stay in place even more, and i also have a these little like cutter things that I get from the beauty, supply and clips to clip the hair back whenever i need to so here. I'M just showing you guys, the bundles that i use these are from ali pearl hair and i have two bundles of 26 and a 24 22 and a 20 inch closure. You can watch my ally, pearl video to see more about that hair, but here i'm just tying and of course, i'm using a styrofoam head, because these are the cheapest things to use it for a beginner. They cost like 4.99 at the beauty, supply and yeah. You don't really need a blockhead if you're, just starting - and here i'm just putting on the wig cap - that's the bottom of the wig cap and that's the top. You want to use the top right there. I used the mesh caps because i feel like they work better for me, and these are also from the beauty supply here. I have a lot of space in the cap, so i just kind of pin it down in the back. I push it back and then i pin it down where it's all smooth at the front, and here i'm about to measure. I pull the closure a little bit just a little bit further than where the um the cap starts, because i feel like it's better and it gives you more room on your closure when you're, laying your baby hairs and such and here i'm just putting it down At the front, and then i'm going to proceed to pin it down at the back and that's what i'm doing here. I'M pinning it down at the back and i'm also putting it down at the down one side and i'm just going to push it down and pin it down. It'S pretty straightforward once you pin it down in the back it just kind of goes really easy here. I'M just re-pinning the mesh so that everything flows well and i'm just doing the same thing that i did on that side on this side, pinning it along the sides here, i'm showing you guys how i sew the hair i just kind of take the needle and Go under the cap, you don't want to get the elastic, and then i go into the edge of the closure and then i'm going to make kind of a knot. You guys see what i'm doing right there. It'S going really really slow, because i want to show you guys, i'm trying not to get the lace and that's why it's kind of taking me a little bit. But once you work through the thick band part it'll be smooth sailing from there. And here you see, i'm just tying a knot. I wanted to slow this down as much as possible for you guys, so you can really see what i'm doing, i'm just tying a knot. What i do is i twist the the part that makes a o. I twist it twice and then i put the needle part through the o. If that makes sense - and i'm also doing the same thing here - and i just want you guys to watch this process, so you can really understand how it goes and i'm just continuing along the hair. The same thing and i just go all the way around. Do the same thing on the other side and go all the way around. I just didn't film that part, because i feel like it's kind of boring, you're literally just doing the same thing. So when i am done, i tie it three times and then i cut off the part and i kind of tie the two strings together and that's what i do every time i finish sewing and i'm out of thread, and here i'm just showing you guys how It looks after i've done it all around and i'm taking off the pins that i had in there. I took the cap off and i'm putting it back on, so i can push it down and i have more space to work in the back now that i'm done with the closure. So here i'm pinning it down so that the cap stays on the mannequin head. Whenever i am working - and here i'm just showing you guys that i'm using the longest length first, you want to use the longest length first, because you want the hairs to be as long as possible and putting the longest length first just makes it longer and i'm Showing you guys how i start, i just take the needle - and i put it through the weft - we're going to be sewing through the weft and under the weft. But here i'm just going a little bit further from the little v in the back and i am sewing into the mesh, remember not to hit the elastic on the inside and then i'm just going to tie a knot. Go going through the weft again. Whenever you start, you always want to go through the weft and then now i'm about to sew under the web. I am sewing under the weft of the hair and i'm just going to keep doing that all around the whole head be so here, i'm showing you guys how to make a knot without having to tie it. What you're going to do is you're going to hold a little you're going to hold the longer part up and then you're going to sew into it kind of like a? U and then you pull it and it automatically makes a knot and i'm just showing you guys, that's what i'm doing so now, i'm showing you guys how to do the flip over method. I don't like to cut my wefts, so i'm putting the needle through the weft and then i am sewing into the mesh and i'm gon na make a knot. And then i'm gon na pull the hair to the other side. And i'm going to sew through the weft again through the weft, and you guys can see that it's even taking me a little time. I like to take my time and then look see it takes me forever y'all. But that's good like this is literally how it goes and i'm gon na sew through the mesh and i'm going to make a knot this this one. You want to really tie it three times, so that's very secure and then i'm going to sew again through the weft and through the mesh, because you want it to really be all flat flat period: okay, okay and then i'm just going to continue to sew under The weft as normal and then when i get to the other side, i'm going to do the flip over method again, yeah guys back so as y'all can see. I'Ve been i'm higher than i was before, because i have sewn on a good amount of hair, because i'm just repeating the same process that i just showed you guys over and over flipping it side to side so yeah, yes, ma'am, okay, now i'll show you guys How to add another bundle, you're just gon na do the same thing. You didn't really started so through the weft and then you're still kind of like into a little bit into the hair. That'S already there and then you. So you make a tight knot. You want to twist it three times to make a tight knot. There we go yeah y'all. I am just like sitting here recording this voiceover. This is so cool anyways yeah, i'm just and then i'm just going to sew normally now under the weft and just continue like normal look at me, struggling anyways. So here i'm showing you guys that if you are a beginner, you can kind of like pin it when you go side to side so that you have you don't have to like worry about the hair getting out of place, then you can just so easily. I don't do that, i'm just showing you guys that you can do that if you just want a little bit of help. You know - and this is a really good video to just follow along to while you are actually trying to make a wig, oh yeah here. I'M just showing you guys how i close up the closure, i'm going to sew through the left and then when i get to the very edge of the hair, i'm going to sew through the weft okay. Well, i guess i ran out of thread and i put some more back yeah, i'm sewing through the weft and i'm going to make a knot. So i can see it's taking me forever, so yeah now that i got it, i'm going to make a knot or whatever and then i'm going to sew through the left again and i'm going to put a lot of the needle into the mesh, because i want To get as close up there as possible, see it's okay and then i'm going to take i'm going to flip the hair to the other side and i'm going to sew through the weft again and i'm going to sew right under where the closure ends or start. You know the edge of the closure, i'm going to sew into it a little bit into that little strip on the edge. You see what i'm doing there yeah zoomed in for you and i'm also sewing through the weft again and then i'm going to continue normally by sewing under the weft and still going into the closure. So here i'm just showing you guys how i close up the closure. I am just going to do. The flip over method sewing through the weft into the cap into the closure a little bit and then through the weft again and then under the weft to continue period. And i'm just going to sew along where the closure is at the back. And that's how i'm going to be closing up my closure or closing up my wig or whatever, and don't worry guys it's going to lay flat because i got y'all at the end, i'm gon na show y'all how to get your wig on flat flat. Okay, okay, sis and here i'm just going to make the final knot i'm going to sew into the weft into the closure and make a three flip knot period done, i'm just going to again cut the thread, tie it twice along each other and then cut it Off and here i'm just going to cut off the remaining hair, i actually used three and a little and like three and a quarter or three and and here i'm just taking out all the needles in the hair. I took the closure out of the thing and i'm just going to cut the extra lace under the closure. I'M just going to cut like a u under it, because you don't want that. Obviously, because the closure is going to be laid - and here i'm showing you guys that i did 10 inches of a band which is from measuring my head, and here i'm just going to sew it you're just going to sew it like normal. So along the line. So yeah i measured 10 inches because i just measure measured my head to see where i wanted it to start and stop and that's how. I knew how much to have - and you can do the same. And here i'm placing the hair back on the wig head and i'm going to. I pin it along the sides so that it would stay. But i didn't record that apparently you guys can see the pins though, and i'm making a middle part. You guys can see the eyeliner right there on the closure. It'S because i measured exactly where the middle is and i'm using my iron to flatten it down, because once it's flat, i can work even more precisely with it, because then it's not all over the place, and i have space to work. I'M just going to follow a straight line: y'all, i'm literally following one grid on the lace. You guys know the grits on the lace. I only follow one grid because i want this to not be like thick at all. I don't like a thick closure. I, like my closure, skinny, okay, baby, skinny or flat. That'S what i like just like me, i'm just kidding but yeah, i'm just going to put a straight line. You guys can watch my video on how i tinted my lace and bleached. My knots. I have that video up right now so make sure you go check that out. That was part one of my wig series that i'm doing so. This is part two, so yeah, i'm just doing that all along the line, and you guys can see that the roots are kind of like a little bit blonde. I feel like that helps me to create a shadow like my wig is actually. My part is actually wider than it is, and i love that because it just looks really nice when you pluck one thin line, and then you just have a little shadow and then i'm going i'm also going to later pluck through the closure and just thin it Out a bit so it can be more natural looking, but i'm not doing that yet. So here i put the hair back on the wig head and i've flattened everything out like i wanted it to be, and now i'm just cutting the lace off the closure. Be very careful and slow when you do this, you guys can see that even i'm very careful and slow, because this part is very crucial. You want to cut a straight perfect line because it'll make your closure. Look that much better you guys can see. This is how the hair looks after i finished.
