How To Cut Lace Off A Wig

Okay, so today we are going to be using just a few things: hair clips scissors or a straight razor super there. We go stay right there, so what you want to do is you want to put your wig on and you see how it's sitting on my head now and right now it looks like my wig is a mess. Okay, you're like what do you do from here? So you want to take your hair and you want to pin it back, that's what these clips will be for and, as you can see, which I'm going to get a little closer, you can see it's going over my ear, so my ear is up here up Here, but this is covering my whole entire hairline, now most lace, wigs are either 13 by 4, 13 by 6, 13 by 7. However, it goes what I have. It is a 13 by 4, so it's 4 inches here. You know what do I have on 13 months 6. My bed, 13 minus 6 - is back here and then 13 inches across. As you can see, my forehead is not 13 inches, I'm about 11 inches across the board. So I am going to show you guys. One side with a razor and the other side with the scissors razor can be a little intimidating so scissors. I give you an easier guide, so you guys can really get a good up-close of what the lace is looking like. So we're going to start on one side with the scissors, so my wig is adjusted just right down the middle even on my part, isn't looking down the middle, but it's down the middle and the lace that I have one right now looks transparent. But it's really a really light brown lace, so it's not super transparent but perfect. My cabbage is super light. Oh my lights have not been scented but anyway, so let's get started. So typically it's easy to cut down the middle. Now I do not have an extra weird forehead. My forehead literally goes across. The only difference for me is my sideburns come a little further out, so when you're cutting you want to be above your hairline, not too five, not too far back, but this is about right for me. So again, my ear stops about right here so and you want the tip of your ear. So what I do is I cut right here and you will see why later on and I want to do the same for the other side, so you want to just take your finger. My ear stops about right here, so I'm gon na take right here and you can take a pair of a marker to mark your spot and you can do this section off of your head and I'm going to show you why. But first, let's get into cutting. So you want to go in and you want to take your scissors at an angle. You want to just kind of go back and forth, and it's back and forth motion here which will make your hairline black, not look super straight and, as you can see, I'm cutting right. Where my lace begins. I have not cut any hair. I have not done anything so, as you can see once my knives are bleached and everything is are all done and done on. This will blend in my skin very seamlessly. So I want to go back in and again you want to go out and, like a zigzag motion, really slow. Now I can do this off of my hand very easily, because I do it so much okay. So we're going to start right here, because I want to show you guys how to cut off your ear flaps and again, it's still showing that is a my ear is covered, but it won't be so so this is what the lace looks like cut. So again, once my cap is tended with my makeup and once at least my max, which really to be honest, I don't have to because my Mac's are so light. I could just take makeup and dab it underneath to blend and more my skin tone. But as you can see, oh no lace so Wallace was flung correctly. Then we will be good to go. I'M gon na stop here and then we're going to show you the other side with a razor okay. So now you want to take your razor. You can have a razor with the handle, but right now I'm using Diane razors. These are perfect for cutting legs, cutting anything and doing your eyebrows. That'S what I use so Diane razors! Okay, so you want to take your razor. You want to make sure it's sharp and see it's giving you that zigzag cuz. You have to be a little careful so boom there we go now. I might go back over cuz again, I'm doing this on camera and I don't have a mirror. So I'm just kind of gone along with you guys, so you can see so boom. Now my lathe is off now you can leave like if you can really zoom in and you see it a little bit of lace, but that's where your tinting comes into play. You can tint with either makeup like a makeup powder or you can actually use the tinting spray for your lace, but I dip eclis do makeup my makeup powder and dab across my hairline and it blends. In perfectly now mind you this is glueless. This is not even glued in so this was glued in this will look even more seamless, so now we're going to go into the part of the ears so now we're going to get into cutting these sides off. So remember where I place my my cap. For my ear, we're just gon na cut upwards and yes you're, going to cut into your hair, and I always cut up at an angle, so you're gon na cut very close to your ear. Now we have that extra piece off and I want to take my wig off and I'm going to show you on camera. So this is what we have left. Okay. This is all going to get cut off this hanging piece right here, and this is the extra piece of hair that will not lay on your skin correctly, so you're gon na go in, and you want to cut that off. So now put our week back on and now look. It is now above my ear like it's supposed to be, and I cut out an angle for those amazing ear flaps. So when I do decide to glue my hair down then boom it is behind my ear. It'S long enough to try to cover my elongated sideburns everyone, so I will go in and cut this lace off now. This extra lace that you see here I would not cut. This is perfect for if you're going your hair down using gossipy gel using the hairspray, I will leave that right there, because when it comes to clean it off, then you're cleaning off this extra little piece of lace and this piece of lace is very little. It looks like a lot because my legs need to be tended to match my skin, but other than that. I go ahead and leave this right here. So when you're cleaning off your glue or your gel or anything when wash your hair, you you're getting rid of everything off of the lace and not into the hairline, because of course, it's going to share so perfect. And once this gets plucked and more and everything and blended you guys to see I'll come back, but at this very moment my lace is now cut. So you guys want to follow this gardening and just take your time. It'S gon na be a minute you're, not gon na cut it off, and you know 2.3 seconds you know cuz. I can do that and I can do this without looking, but your you're brand new or you may need some help with getting. You know your lace cut correctly, but that is how so off-camera I'm gon na do the same thing. I'M gon na come back. I'M gon na tend everything plug curl everything and I'll be back to show you guys what it looks like it finished. Look. Thank you. So today we went over how to cut off the legs for a brand week. I am wearing a 28 inch lace, front 13 might take place. Are we straight texture, um and I transparent lace lightly, scented didn't even fully customize or didn't like puffy.
