How To Make A Wig Using Braiding/Kanekalon Hair | Crochet Method

What'S good beautiful people, it's Oh cushions are here and today I have the most requested video on my channel and that's about how I make my wigs using baling hay. I honestly didn't think this was like this all for some people, because I thought everyone is doing this but anyways. So now, I'm starting off with my dream cap and I'm going to be marking the areas where I ride my lace to go. I'M making this wig into a French or mostly because I am tired of closures. Now I want something that looks pretty natural over here. Color is not natural and I'm going to be taking this unlace that occurred from my fabric store. I think it was about twenty seven random meets her. I got she meets us, it's honestly Kevin lost me a year and a half trust me, and then I'm going to be pinning it down just to make sure that I'm marking the areas that I want to cut and you want to cut it straight across leaving Some room for you to like catch a lace and customize it later. Okay, I honestly spayed this part up so quickly, because I mean it's a learn and go it's like a child and air appearances. You can honestly unknown from what I am doing, but right now I am just putting my lace on my mannequin. He hated this mannequin head. It is so useless, rather carry canvas hidden, not this one. This one is oh, my gosh, it's annoying, so you cut others and then now I'm going to be sewing down the lace using thread and a needle. I use the straight needle for this one. It'S a disaster hanging rather go get yourself. A loop shapes needle foot. You ran from the beauty, supply, store and use that one it's much easier. It'S faster. It'S also used that. I am finger, showed thing you. What is a code? A symbol is that when it's called anyways, I used it and you want to make sure that your lays lays down flat and it's not vampy, because the moment you try and install that wig, it's not only cute, so you once you get it right from the First time, so you must make sure that you're sewing down your lace in this trace line. Is you can see? I did not do that and that will make that'll make you wig have more lace of space on one side and then the other side won't have. As much lace space as the other, but then you also want to tie your thread once you're done sewing and then now I'm going to be using this I'm braiding here that I got from my beauty supply. Suppose this is the darling I'm braiding here, it's pink! I'M gon na put the exact same color on the screen, so now I'm just going to be untying. If you guys can see it's super super long, I cut it once I mean a mistake. I should have cut it twice because honey she was long. Okay, I'm not really a fan of I'm a fan of long hair, but that was way too long for me. So now I'm going to be working on my legs do not worry about this tape. If it's too fast for you, I just want to show you guys what I was actually doing, because I went ahead off-camera and I finished this and then I'm going to come to you guys and show you the step-by-step process. I'M also repeating some steps. I asked you guys on Instagram how long you think it will take me to complete this week. I also estimated one week plus, but it actually took me four days, and this is because I'm now used to this method and I can easily do it like. I can even do it in my sleep honey, so if you're a beginner and it takes you more than a week - do not worry. My first week took a month and a half, it was so annoying a restaura sating and I still have wigs that I've never completed because I was just. I was just done: okay, honey! So don't worry if it takes you a long time. It'S part of the process do not worry at all okay, so you guys can see that my frontal is pretty full. I like very, very thick here. I like here, that's a very high intensity. So now I'm opening my second pack, which was very unnecessary. Okay. This week was long and when I mean long it's long, I like long hair but honey. That is too long for me, so I would rather recommend you cutting the wig two times and cut it once because I thought it was gon na be short, but it really wasn't short, but if you're going for a wig, I would suggest that you cut the Wig four times like for Honus, am I even making sense but anyways right now, I'm working on the doing Cadmus, because I just want to show you guys how to work on the dome cap. The method that she used on the term cap is very, very, very different, limited that you use when it comes to the lace. You want to take a decent amount of here and then fold it in half over your finger, and then you want to take your crochet needle put it through the dome cap so that it appears on the other side and then grab onto that loop that you Have created by folding laying hot over in this space and then put the both of the strands inside the loop and then pull it tight to make sure that it doesn't move or anything like that. So just pull through the hair and then grab both of the strands put them through the loop and then just tie it to make it doesn't get loose. This is the method that I'm using on the entire dome cap: I'm not using this method for the laser pot. So you also want to make sure that that band by the nape of your neck or by the pyramid of your head and it's covered, because I personally do not like that. I don't like seniors for this wig. I didn't really come on the top of my head because I'm not gon na be wearing this rig out for now. Until I cut it but anyways now, I'm showing you guys how to make layers so you're going to take a decent amount of here and then you're going to pull the one side so that one side is shorter and the other side is longer. This will create layers without having to catch it here. I honestly hate wasting here, because I've been at times I want to make a wig, but I don't even have the hair that I want to make and I can't really go to the shops. So this is a decent amount of way to make layers without having to cut your hair with this type of hair, it's very, very common to get tangles and shading. So the one way the best way to maintain they here is spray water. When you want to detangle it or use fabric softener, here's fabric softener to actually make the hair a bit silky and not too rough. So now, I'm working on the lace, and I want you to necessarily pay close attention to what I'm doing. I'M leaping through my crochet so that it can show on the other side, I'm still folding my hair in half and then I'm going to grab the loop pull it through and only put one strand through. If you didn't get that I'm gon na repeat it push through the crochet and then grab the loop, creates it by folding the hair in half, pull it through the lace and then grab one strand. This would make sure that you get that seamless and effect and that when you want to part your hair, it doesn't show the knots or anything like that. I'M not too sure, if you guys have heard any here influences and they say that the knots on the wigs are too big. That'S what they mean so also when you're working on the lace. You want to make sure that you're not taking too much here so that it doesn't have big knots, because if you look at your scalp, if you look at your natural hair, you do not have very big knots, because I was making this wig for me. I wanted to make sure that I am getting the exact measurements. I don't want to go in and pluck and customize. I don't want to do too much with us here so right now, I'm going to put it on my head and then I'm going to take my concealer that I got from a beauty, supply store and I'm going to mark my hairline. So this is to just make sure that I do not have to go back in and pluck. I don't have to do crazy things just to make this hair match my natural hairline. So this is perfect, where you can do it or you can use chalk or whatever that you have. I prefer to use concealer mostly because I mean it's thick and it shows through, but this video supplies no can Cena couldn't get off my head, so I had selected to go and wash my hair after this remember when we were working on the lace part. We are working horizontally now we are going to work vertically because we don't want any of the knots to show in case you have made any knots. So now I'm going to be poking through my crochet still using the same method, but I'm now crocheting in a different direction. I'M crocheting outwards and not sideways. Am I even making sense, but I'm pretty sure you guys can tell the difference from watching the view like. I said I don't want to do too much when it comes to customizing goes here. That includes plucking. So when I did the hairline part, I didn't put down too much here, mostly because I wanted to have that gradient effect that hairline looking like effect, and that's literally all I did for this wig.
