Hey guys, so this video is going to be a little bit different than the usual ones. I am going to be making a wig that most of you are a little bit more familiar with um hi, guys kamera here with elon blue talks, where i help you to create stunning wigs through easy to follow steps, explore simple protective hairstyle options and share tips On growing healthy, beautiful hair, naturally, if you haven't already go ahead and subscribe to my channel down below to catch more videos, just like this, all links in this video is going to be in the description box below. So in this video i am going to be demonstrating a 4x4 frontal, sew-in lace wick. So as we get started, the first thing i want to apologize for is the start of this video. Unfortunately, as i was recording somehow i lost the footage of me starting off this unit, so i do apologize for starting with the 4x4 already attached to the cap, but uh i figured i might as well still do the video. So here we are: let's go ahead and talk about some of the tools we're going to need to get started so to make this unit. I am using a 4x4 lace closure, the brand of hair, i'm using is organica and it comes in four pieces. Four piece bundle, including the four by four closure. I am also using a 23 inch mannequin head, an adjustable wig cap by dreamworld, weaving needle a weaving thread. T pens, mannequin, stand of course, hair clips. If you have some a hair tie to pull up. All of that hair out of your way and just be mindful that all of the tools i'm using will be listed in the description below. So if you would like a clear description or a link to some of the tools, i'm using just check it out below and now let's just go ahead and start it. So of course, as i mentioned before, the 4x4 is already placed on the cap. So now all i'm going to do is attach the 4x4 to the cap with a hand, stitch technique. The hair i'm using is really cool because it's probably the best synthetic hair i've come across, especially in regards to like straight synthetic hair. I haven't found any that's in a more kinky curly texture yet, but i'm sure they are probably developing it because i think this for the most part, the way they make this synthetic hair is quite new, and so there is a lot of growth and a lot Of potential with this brand, so i'm really excited but um as of right. Now, i really really really do like this brand um on the package. It says that it is using a blend, master uh technique and with some new, like technology of like blending, synthetic hair and and and um having it like mimic human hair, which is which is quite good. One thing i do enjoy about um using this brand is that for one i don't have to like make my whisk, because for a while, i was making my own with, because it was kind of hard to find with synthetic care, especially with the kind of quality. I was looking for so i'm quite excited to finally find a brand that i don't have to do so. Much work with - and all i have to do - is literally cut the whiff and sew it onto a cap and to find that it also has a 4x4 closure. It'S just absolutely amazing, and even the hairline on the closure is it's not bad. You may do need to do a little bit of plucking because it is a little bit sharp, but it's not bad, considering uh the price. What makes you itch? What sort of a situation would you like? Let'S suppose i do this often vocational guidance of students, they come to me and say well, uh we're getting out of college and we have the faintest idea. So i always ask the question: what would you like to do if money went up? What? How would you really enjoy spending your life? Well, it's so amazing. As a result of our kind of educational system, crowds of students say well we'd like to do painters, we'd like to be poets, we'd like to be writers, because everybody knows you can't have any money that way or another person says well. I'D like to live an outdoor life and ride horses you'll be doing things you don't like doing in order to go on living. That is to go on doing things you don't like doing, which is stupid, better to have a short life that is full of what you like doing in a long life and after all, if you do really like what you're doing it doesn't matter, what it is Is absolutely stupid to spend your time doing things you don't like in order to go on spending things you don't like and doing things like and to teach your children to following the same track, see what we're doing is we're bringing up children and educated to live. The same sort of lives - and so therefore it's so important to this question: what do i design so the whole process of sewing on this 4x4 closure probably took me about 30 minutes. This is still new to me, so i am probably a little slower. I'M sure it could go a little faster. I will definitely share the youtube channel. I got my technique from so that you can get a better, a better visual of like how a really good sewing process goes and just how a really really dope wig turns out. Now the the channel i got it from they were using human hair, so i just put my little twists on it with my synthetic hair and yeah, so you can do this same process with human or synthetic hair, and i just wanted to show that. But i will share that youtuber in the description below, because i am still totally new to this process and you guys deserve the best me. So me me me me, so this is the last little bit of the piece and i'm just twisting the thread around the needle to create a loop and then a knot. It'S fairly easy process, but i will do it again, because i am a little frustrated that i was i i don't have the footage that shows the beginning process. So i do do do apologize about that, but that just means we get to make more videos, and now we are on to part two which is creating the guideline on to the cap, so that the whips can be sewn. Now guidelines are important as far as showing you where the trash should go, but you don't have to stick strictly to it. You can kind of veer off of it if you need to they're just guidelines, but it really really really is helpful to have them now. I started off my guidelines being a half an inch apart, but once i saw how many tracks i was gon na have to sew onto the cap in order to follow those guidelines, i thought maybe that would be a little bit too much and a lot of Work so i decided to cut that in half and space it out to an inch apart, which means that, because the widths are a little thin, i needed to double those with in order to like cover and give all the fullness that i was looking for. So you'll see me once we finish this guideline process. You'Ll see me sew this the whips together to make it just a little bit thicker and um, and just look a little bit better for the spacings that we have, but yes, that proc those small those uh half an inch apart guidelines would have been hell. Trying to like sew every whiff onto that, so i am glad how i re-thought that and spaced it out a little bit more because that that is not the move. As i'm doing the side, i like to start to angle the lines downward in the back, because if you continue to go straight across, you may run out of space and then, as i go as i move upward towards the closure, i start to taper it towards The closure a little bit more, so that is squaring it a little bit, and that is pretty much the process for the guidelines so on to part three, which is the sewing process for the most part. This whole wig making process is quite easy and quite fast, once you've kind of gotten a technique going and the hang of things. So the first thing you're going to see me do once the machine is ready, is remove the hair from the package and then stitch the whips together. So i'm going to fold them fold two pieces together and stitch those because that's gon na help to create a thickness that we are going to need in order to cover the cap. If i leave it as thin as it is once i start to apply them onto the wig, it might still show the cap a little bit because it is so thin. So just adding the two width together will thicken it up enough to hide the cap. Now most people, i've noticed double the width for the whole entire wig, and that makes the wig nice and full and thick. But i don't like to have it too full because to me it just looks a little bit less real when it's that full. So having just a nice thinner kind of natural looking wig is what i'm going for. So that is the aim. So i'm going to double the width for some of the parts the pieces in the heart, i'm going to double the width for some parts of the hair, a little bit in the back a little bit at the top, but maybe like the center. I may leave that as single wefts, just to kind of thin it out just a little bit. No one is going to see the back anyways and all the hair is going to fall over the center back from the top. So i think it's going to be good me me me me me me so so me me me me me me me me all right guys, thank you so so much for watching it was a pleasure doing this video for you. If you have any questions, please do leave a comment below and i will do my very very best to answer all of those questions. If you like this video, please do share with your friends and family stay tuned for more videos and until next time, peace,

Pepper Provasnik: Great job! My wigs tend to be on the thin side at times, so I'll crochet hair between a few rows between the wefts where there's no hair and it also camouflages the tracks besides adding more thickness

Shaniya C: I loved this wig!!! Beautiful! Can you please do a video on crochet natural wig with an ombré color? Using the Marley hair. It would be great for those who want to try a little color instead of a full colored wig. Thank you ❤️ TFS!

Felishia White: You may be new at installing closures, but you sure are very neat at it. The neatest sew job I've ever seen on a closure. Gurl those hands are surgical.

Sky Lilly: Just purchased a wig from Elon Blu and I’m super excited cause it’s my first wig ever
