I got a bunch of alpaca fiber for my birthday, but I'm just now getting around to cleaning it to use. I asked for this color intending to use it for Vahn, but it's both longer and darker than expected based on the listing and photos, so I'm using the darker and longer pieces for Sophie! What do you think?

Also - I'm not happy about doing it, but I will be dropping back to posting videos every other week for a while. When I started my channel, I planned to do one every other week, but I was so inspired and able to work so fast that I kept up videos every week for over a year!

I went into 2017 with a full month of videos ready ahead of time, but this year has been difficult so far and my buffer is all used up. Cutting back for a couple weeks will give me time to rebuild my buffer and my creativity levels, as well as giving me time to rest and recover and come back at 100%! With luck, I will be back full force in May. Otherwise, you'll just see me only as often as my channel's about page still says. XD

Well, everyone: this is la me and today I'm making a quick link for Sophie monastic. Kids - Oh Liam, I'm starting by covering her head with plastic to keep the glue from damaging her face up. I'Ve already made a wig cap using pantyhose and a little bit of white glue for this wig I'll, be using West's made with white glue some basic school glue to attach them to the wig cap and a paintbrush for spreading the glue. I spread glue on the wig cap and then apply the west to the glue. Rushing a little more and glue on top helps it be more secure, even though I plan for this wig to have a fringe on the front. I go ahead and put West's all the way around the edges away cap if you've never made West's before I covered that process in another video I posted a while ago. I used the same process for this, but I made them using white glue this time. Instead of the super fabric, adhesive, the biggest difference is that the super fabric adhesive is waterproof, while white glue isn't, however, white glue dries much faster, so if your ways won't need to be washed, often it's just as effective as the stronger glues. The light glue is also non-toxic, which makes it a good option if you don't want to wear a respirator or if you don't have one there's not much to this. It'S just a matter of patience. I glue row after row of west toward the crown of the wig and then i'll take a short break to let this glue dry before I apply the top I've shaved, my best West's very crown. These are the thickest and smoothest, sweat and also the prettiest hair, because the placement of these pieces is a little bit more finicky. I switch to a thick or glue, that's less likely to shift as I move pieces around on top of each other. I apply a few fake West's at the top just to make sure that all the places where glue is showing underneath are covered. Then it's time to do the part I lay the very top west facing the opposite direction of the way I want them to lay. After the glue is dry I'll fold them back, this will give me an attractive center part. I do one side at a time letting the first side dry completely before I put on the other once the site is dry, is time to gently start, brushing out the wig and smoothing things over as I brush one of the West's pulls up where I didn't Have enough glue applied, underneath you can fix this by taking a small amount of glue on the end of the toothpick and gently working it down in between the West, then squeeze the hair back together over the top, and it should stay put since this glue is Water-Soluble any glue you get on top can easily be washed out later, since I still don't have a flat iron. I use a large barrel, curling iron, to smooth out the top layer of the hair. This also flattens the part once install brushed and smooth it's time for me to separate out the part I want to cut into the fringe I lifted a few times to make sure I've parted all the way through all the layers and also can make sure that It'S as symmetrical as possible, it's best to cut the fringe a little bit longer than you want and then trim off the extra just a little bit at a time. You never know how uneven it might be. The first time you cut, it's also really dry and staticky here right now, so her hair isn't as smooth as it will be a few weeks from now. You can still see the layers of the lefts and the fringe, but the more you brush this, the more it will disappear. The different layers will blend together nicely over time, a little more trimming and no hair. We do some. This is a really easy style to achieve, but it's really cute, especially on smaller dolls. I'M glad I darkened up her face up because it really helps her eyes stand out against this wig. That'S all for today. Now, thanks for watching bye,

Junipa: One way you can reduce the bulkiness of the fringe is to snip vertically into the ends of the fringe, it thins it out so you have less of a blunt look and it'll appear a little more natural.

Pol Doll: The wig is so adorable, it really suits her I haven't successfully used alpaca fibre in the past and have some unprocessed in a bag somewhere. I might have to dig it out and try again. Practice makes perfect after all. Thanks for the inspiration

Sandra Solaligue-Pérez: Beautiful!

Ariya Zheng: Great video, helps a lot! thank you for sharing! and by the way, what did you do before you glue the alpaca on? How did you make the alpaca stay together group by group? I couldn't find a video on it. i cant click link in the video

gp'art: really helpful!

Tiya Z: May I ask how do you hold the doll in place??

Theressa: The fringe looks a bit bulky I tend to not put too many wefts where the fringe will be.

Haley Wilson: I think is creative and I like the color of the alpaca hair.

Giovanna Barros: cortei meu cabelo para nada. não deu certo tirei 5 metros!!!!!

Mike Nino: Where do you buy hair like that thanks.

Matrixbabe53 R: How do you get the Alpaca hair not to stink so badly? Do you treat it with something first? I had two bags of it and my God!! The stench was so badly I had to throw it out! How can this be resolved...same thing happens to goat hair.

꧁ 玖月*June ꧇꧈: Glue wig gets stiff and crack after a while

Hobby Momma: Her bangs is too thick. But nice video.
