#043 Diy Crochet Wig With Lace Closure!

What'S up loves, I am back with another tutorial in this. One is different. This time I did a crochet wig. So this is my client who found me via YouTube yeah she reached out to me - or should I say her daughter in regards to trying to figure out some way to have a stylish nice hairstyle for her mom without exposing the growth that she's had all her Life, so I thought why not a crochet wig I felt like the cap would be stretchy, as you can see here. Of course it would be convenient for me to weave the hair through and I decided to do a closure. So here's my thought process. A lot of the wigs that you buy in the store nowadays already have some type of closure unit somewhere, which defines your part. However, usually those units are very very flat so when you actually put them on, if you are putting them on on top of, in her case a growth, it would actually make the growth more defined. So I wanted to customize something where she would still have this thing loved be able to somewhat have a natural-looking scalp, our natural parting, I should say without it exposing the girl that she has underneath so right now, I'm just using this shine Jam - and this is Just to keep a hair in place, as I Cohen row it because of course you know when you're doing crochet here you loop it onto a corner. So that is the purpose for the closure. The closure is soli so that we could have a natural parting and because I am doing this without her to start, I needed to be able to have some versatility as to where I was gon na put the parting for her once she wears it. So this is what it looks like once. It'S completely braided and by doing this, this allows me to decide whether she's gon na wear a part on the right or the left, and I wasn't certain how far to the left or the right I was gon na have to leave this closure. But I was hoping that there would be enough head span that it would be able to sit to the side of her growth and not on top. Well, that was the hair that I chose to use um and we had went over some pictures so this unit. She showed me the curly style that she liked, and this definitely was the best hair for that. So this is the process so far and I'm filling in the back and then I'm gon na go in and fill the front. This is me I'm at home, so I ended up bringing it home to complete, and this is the completed look. So I do want to say, though, that I did leave the back still a little Spacey, because I wanted to make it more custom and fill it out according to her head once I got it on her, so I filled out majority of the front to some Degree I had to be very certain not to put too much hair in the top, because, where the growth is, if I put too much hair should have had too much volume and it would have thrown the look off. It would have been a little bit of like side are very, very tall in the top, so we didn't want to do that. So, as you can see it, she has a lot of hair. She just doesn't have hair around her hairline and in that growth area. So I am now putting it on just for the fit and she explained to me she prefer the right side. So now, I'm going in between the braids to figure out exactly where I want the part to stop you. So now I'm going in and I'm trimming the hair just to kind of frame her face, definitely want to make certain that it's not too long, but also not too short, so we're trying to fit right in that middle and, what's curly hair, you know it can Be very funny because, depending on how you pull it, sometimes it will appear to be longer or shorter than it really is. So you want to be certain that you're not cutting too quickly. Now I'm adding a little bit of foam onto the product onto the hair. Excuse me, and of course, even though it's synthetic hair, you still want to treat it just like hair, because it looks like here so a lot of times. When I see people synthetic crochet here it looks all frizzy, it looks all big or it looks mad. It is because they haven't put anything on it, so don't be afraid to use some of your products to put on it, whether it be a little bit of oil or, in our case a little bit of fall to tame your curls. So I'm listing it now just lightly with my Minister and it's just a little bit of water in here. I love it because it doesn't over saturate. The hair like a water bottle does - and I forgot to show where I put a little bit of concealer in her parting after I was done with this but yellows. This is the complete finish, so hope you enjoyed it and until my next video violence,
