Guys welcome back to my channel, I'm going to show you guys how to install an elastic band for your wigs, your full lace, wigs, your! U part, wig you name it. Let'S get started. I may get some questions about the hair that I'm currently wearing right now, but this unit is my baby. It'S like almost two years old. This hair is from hair karma and fly honey. Wigs also known as Rene here on YouTube make this unit for me and she cut this unit. I just love it. I love hair, comma. I swear by their hair. Then one of my favorites a lot of you guys may wonder: why do you need elastic band? In your wig, but an elastic band is a great option for you. If you have a unit that does not fit your head properly, so you can install an elastic band so that your unit will fit more snug to your head. The unit that I'm going to be demonstrating this on is going to be this gorgeous beautiful, full lace. Wig these curls are very loose and relaxed, and the hair is so soft. This wig is from my first wig and typically when I get my wigs from like RPG or my first wig, I never really watched them first, so this is kind of like one of the few times that I normally do that, and I am just in love With it, you get your wig you're going to get packaged like this nice durable black box, basically, a kit that comes with everything you need, if you like, a first-time wig where and that's what I like. It comes with all the essential tools that you need to install your wig. These are the components that come in your bag. This is full of everything that you're going to need. Basically, some bobby pins get a really nice rat tail comb, which I love these combs. It comes with two clips and when you get your wig is going to come in this pink bag. Here that zip open comes with this. This nice pink wig stand. So if you don't want to store in this bag, I would definitely use your wig stand for this, and the unit does have adjustable straps in the back, which I like to tighten mine. But it's totally up to you on your comfort level. Now initially, if I was to put this wig on, it would fit, but it would not fit as snugly trying to make it so that my lace, wigs ladies really flat up against my hairline, so that don't necessarily have to pull out any hair. And there are two ways that you can do this you guys what you're going to need is an elastic band like this you're going to need a tape, measure cutting shears, and I personally like to just use two needles that are already threaded just to make the Process a lot easier if you're going to take your elastic band like this and what you're going to do is measure from ear to ear right across the nape area. So you're going to take the end of the elastic and go right behind your ear and hold it very top. Hold it very tight, okay and you're going to apply a lot of tension, you're going to pull this elastic and when I mean pool you're going to pull it like this you're going to pull it. Okay, you're going to put about how your ear you're going to pull it as tight as you can as tight as you can and place it right behind the other ear, how much we should be cutting up. Don'T you install this? That'S where it's going to pull and lay flat on your head just like that. Take your measuring tape and we're going to be using inches you're going to measure from ear to ear as well. Mine is right exactly at 9, inches you're, going to measure out 9 inches on your lasting and make sure you hold it very. Naturally you don't pull it, don't buy any attention to this. Okay make sure you hold that spot. So this is 9 inches. I'M going to go in and take about 2 to 4 inches 2 to 4 inches is going to ensure that it sits very flat and very tight on your head now to the 4. Inches is a lot depending on your comfort level. I'M going to take off about three and a half inches, I'm not going to the for two to four inches. If you do about, two inches is going to fit comfortably, whereas four inches is gon na stick flat to your head. You hear me so I'm going to take off about three and a half inches, I'm going to go ahead and measure the 9, so here's the 9 inches. Now I'm going to go 1 inch, which is 8 2 inch, which is 7 3 inch, which is about 6 inches, half so 3 and a half inches. Now, if you wonder the 4/4 you'll be at 5 inches, I'm going to go at about 1/2, which is right here, so that is where I'm going to go ahead and cut. This looks very, very short, but you see how much you get when you stretch it out put my wig on, so I can see how it fits me. So I'm going to feel right where the tip of my ear start. Ok, so right, where this ear tip of your ear is that's, where you're going to apply that elastic from the tip of the ear. For me is right here which is perfect, because that's exactly where that lace stops and it's going to make this lace lace so flat. Now how I'm going to apply this elastic here is the same way. You guys look at this wig. You can see circle you're going to apply this elastic the same way just like to see how it's curved in, like that you're going to play it just like that, so this will hug the nape of your head. Okay, I'm going to line up that point here where the top of my ear starts, I'm going to go in my needle and thread and sew it down make sure you not the end of your thread so that the thread will stay. It'S very important. Okay, go ahead when I take this in here, so it so is like that. This is why I like to have another needle so that you can just go right ahead and you don't have to thread another one and wait for it and all that stuff. So now we're going into the second part. Now I did take off a lot of inches feel free to do it towards whatever is comfortable for you. I'Ve done this many of time, so I'm very comfortable with how much I've take off and put on with these elastic bands. So you're going to try your wig pull the elastic dam back here and that's very tight. I like that, yes, okay and then you're going to pull the rest of this way back now, because this elastic is so tight back here. What I'm going to do is adjust the wig to match it so that it lays flat on my nape as well they're going to put it going like that you're going to pull this as well, I'm not going to cut the lace off of this yet because I'M going to work on the hairline for a little bit turn around, so you can see me pull this up. You can see the wig line flat back here very flat on the sides as well as the top. Here. That'S pretty much how I install my elastic band to my wigs, very simple, very easy. If you guys have any questions always leave below, and I will see you guys in the next video you want. I love you bye here just covers a small amount of space and you only have a little bit of area to work with where the frontal you got a lot of space, you got a lot of versatility. You got a lot that you can do with this
