Hi guys welcome back to my channel. My name is viano. If this is your first time, you are very welcome if you've been here before, you know how we do welcome back, oh gee, so, as the title says, guys i'll be showing you how to put an elastic band on your wig cap. Okay, this wig was made in my last video. So if you want to check that out, you can click on the link in the description box so guys before we get into it. I'D like you to like this video comment after this video subscribe and turn on the notification bell. So this is just what the cap looks like very neatly soon, but let's just get into the topic so guys what you'll be needing is an elastic band, a 13 to 15 inches elastic band will do this. Is a 14 inches elastic band? What we'll also be needing is to secure the ends of this elastic band, so you want to burn the ends of the elastic band. This will prevent it from unraveling. Okay, so just burn it like. So what you also be needing is your needle and thread you'll. Be needing your scissors and your razor blade, whichever one scissors or razor blade, just make your pink so guys. What we'll be doing is to place this elastic band an inch away. Okay, you don't want it too, close to your uh or too far from your ear. So an inch or an inch and a half will do so. We are going to start by securing the side of the elastic band. This will prevent too much pressure at the top of the elastic band. So you just want to put your needle and your thread through the lace and the elastic band and then leave the end. Okay, like i did there, because we'll be using that to secure the end of our stitching so guys, as you can see, i'm going over the top of the elastic band okay into the elastic band. This is another way of preventing the elastic band from unraveling. Okay, so you just want to make sure that um you're doing it correctly. You also want to make sure that you're giving enough space so that when we are running it back uh you have space to put the needle and it doesn't get too chunky with tread. So just give adequate spacing because you're going to run this back as you can see, i'm not looping the thread at all, i'm just going in and out in and out. So we are almost done with the top of the of the elastic band. We'Ll also be securing the side as well, so guys, as you can see, we are using the end of that thread to secure the end. Okay, if that makes sense we're using the tail of the tray to secure the end of our stitching. Okay. That makes more sense so i'll be using my razor blade. I'M just used to using my razor blade. Okay, guys, don't worry, i'm not going to cut my hand so so guys before placing the band on the other side. You want to make sure that it is straight there's nothing as painful as sewing the other end and seeing that you twisted it just like having a twisted brush. Strap is really really frustrating. Also guys a very important note when you are putting this elastic band, you want to make sure that you're putting it you're angling it inwards. Okay, not straight not outwards inwards, as you can see by this side, is moving inwards inside the cap, not outside the cup. So guys i'll just be speeding this up, as you have seen on the other side. So let's just speed this up. So after securing this okay, we are going to look at it and see if we actually place the elastic band in the right direction. So guys you can see, the elastic band is moving inwards. Okay, this will prevent it from tugging or dragging your ear and giving you a headache. Okay. So this is a step you don't want to miss. So what we are going to do is to place our wig in the middle okay and find the middle point of the elastic band that we put in on the elastic band of the of the wig cap. And then we are going to hold that part. So guys, what we'll be doing is to make horizontal right. Yeah horizontal stitch is okay. Three four five stitches is enough. I don't think you have to do too much on this part again guys leave enough spacing so that when you're running it backwards, it will not be too chunky. You'Ll be running it over the empty spaces, as you can see so guys. This is all there is to know about putting an elastic band on your wig. I hope you enjoyed this video.

I just installed my band on my wig. I would never have thought about burning the ends of the band with a matchstick to secure it from unravelling. Thank you.
