Hey guys so today, I'm going to show you all how to get a more natural-looking look from your short way. What I mean by that is, if you know this, when you wear short ways, there's always this is this factor it's just okay. It might not bother a lot of people, but it does bother me because I think this hair back here it gives it a very unnatural look, you can leave it if you want, but I would prefer to just make it look a little bit more natural bed Pair, so this way that I'm wearing is the shiny way and I'll leave some information in the description box about this wig and the color young dingoes. And you just going to move the hairs out of the way because you don't want to cut the hairs from the way you just want to cut the actual cap itself and, as you can see, I don't know how good you can see. But there's like some mesh materials like when you pull it, you can see the little material of the cap. That is what you're going to be cutting like the hairs. Just stretching these hear about this, one can see where the cap is and then I'm going to cut right along here and it'll help. If you had two people that help you to position it and the whole things in place. But it's just me so I'm going to do the best. I can to cut this and show you how I'm cutting it just so you can see all right so we're just going to cut right here. So, as you can see, I'm just cutting this hair off the back, I'm cutting it away from the rest of the wig. Can you see these elastic stretches? I'M just cutting these off being very careful not to cut the hairs we'll start down here with the first row and if I needed cut higher I'll trim it again. Now that I cut the back off it's going to look like this is not as bulky as before, and to tell you the truth, it doesn't feel any more loose because I cut it because I only cut such a small area in the back. It still fits very, very snug on my head now you got out all of the boat from back here that big heavy lump that sits on the back of the lid see there's no more of that. It'S all now. This is the part where we are going to cut into the way, and you can use your clippers. I'M going to use my clippers, but if you don't feel comfortable using clippers, you can use a hair, thinner or one of those beauty supply combs with the razor in it, but I'm pretty comfortable with the Clippers. So I'm going to use the Clippers just going to shave off all of that extra hair and make the hair blend in, and this is great if you have an undercut or if you already have a short hair. This is a good thing to do to make those short ways look natural. Even if you don't have an undercut, you can still put your hair up in a way that makes it look like this, but you do have to be careful with these Clippers will come. It'S really thin, so you don't want to end up cutting your rib here. Lessons I'm pretty much a fall. Bear anyway does not matter you can see. Now it looks more flat. It looks more like a 27-piece in the way. This other way that I'm about to show you is good if you have shorter hair, where you have an under cook, where you don't mind, this car show this all right, so we're going to take this off one more time. So now I'm going to go even shorter and I'm going to cut another. Let'S see how many rolls so I have. I have one row two rows: I'm going to cut another two rows over here, because I want it to be a little bit shorter because I have my hair safe back here. So I won't really choose a more layer or some more rows of this way. Just because I'm more comfortable with having it shorter, it did not compromise the fit. It still fits really snug. Now what I will tell you is be careful if my cutting, because you don't want to cut above where the ball of your head is because, if you cut anywhere around there - and I can't guarantee you that it will fake so just try to keep it. Look. Alright, so here is the look of it and I cut it because I wanted my hair to show where my real hair is, but here I wanted that to show now we are going to get our flippers again and we're going to start the blending process again. Do not forget to put your guard or your clippers when you start this this process or use your paper and columns to find a safer sugar now most ways. You don't have to do that too, but some ways are just so called key back there. That is ridiculous, all right, so here's your finished product from the side, the back and then the other side. So that's how you can go from making your shirt wig look from waiting to natural. I hope this tutorial was helpful. If you have any questions, of course, you can always leave them below or invest me and thanks again for watching

Nikkola Manning: That is the best tutorial I have ever seen, I'm gonna test it out on one of my old wigs first. Your wig looks amazing and you look stunning with your natural short hair. Thank you so much!
mlml smith: I absolutely loved this..I tried using scissors when I was pretending to be a wigologist but I messed it up so I used tweezers to remove the comb and it turn out great
city girl: Girl you've got some great eye sight! I love your idea of removing that first row of bulk and blending it. I would have stopped right there for myself, but you def made this yours and gave ideas for us to create our own. I don't know if anyone else got itchy watching and wanted to brush your neck for you while we watched you do your magic! Lol
MsOliviaWhit: This is the most BEAUTIFUL short wig tutorial I've ever seen on YT. You did an excellent job on this unit. I'm trying to get my mother into wearing wigs and this is exactly what I'm going to do for her. Same unit and all. PERFECT!!
Martine Denise: I have been dealing with this issue for years! I keep my natural hair cut real low like yours and I hated having the fake wiggy look whenever I wore a short wig. Well, not anymore, thanks to this great tutorial!
Nefer A'isha: Great tutorial! I've always done similar by simply flipping the back under and bobby pinning it into place....trimming the back and styling to give a "natural" look.

Nefer A'isha: I never thought to actually cut off the additional tracks... I always simply folded the "nape" of the wig over, and pinned it down once I placed the wig on. I also clipper cut or razor combed to blend the back. Love your method!
Just Malaika: WOW! Thank you! I have a wig I bought earlier this year that I thought looked really cute. Unfortunately when I saw myself in a picture it looked way too wiggy. Have not worn it since.
