Watch Me Make My First Wig! Beginner Friendly | Vrvouge Hair Company Aliexpress | Dymani Wright

Couple things before we actually get into the video be very, very clear one. This was my very first time making a wig, so I don't find this to be a video to teach you how to do other more being a video of like learning with me or like following my experience of doing it. Definitely because one there were a couple different things that I felt like I could have done after watching the footage, and also watching a couple more videos too, because of different angles that I had my camera setup. They aren't the greatest. So you can't really see what I'm doing in some Clips. I tried to zoom it in a little bit, so you guys can see it better, but there are a couple things that I feel like should have been shown better or that I could have shown better. But I definitely do know for next time, when I do make a week that there will be better angles, better teaching mechanisms and stuff. Like that, another thing all the products I used I will list down below. I got all my supplies from klore Beauty, Supply and Amazon. Anything from Amazon that is linked down below is an affiliate link, which means I do get a little bit of Commission off of it if you guys do end up using the link. So I just wanted to make that clear. I'M not saying use the link, but I'm saying if you did end up going to buy in any of these items. The links in my description bar are an affiliate link for Amazon only yeah. I just wanted to let you guys know those little things just before we actually get into the video, so the hair that I'm using today is from V arvo on Aliexpress. The package came with a beige weigh cap, three bundles of 22 inch hair and a frontal that was 20 inches, so the weight cap I ended up using was not mesh because I did actually order the wrong one. The whole time I thought I did order a mesh one, but I did not so I just used a regular wake up and it still end up working perfectly fine for me. So what I'm doing is I'm just placing my frontal above or farther down than where the wig cap actually starts just because, if I did place it right where the way cap did start, it would not end up fitting that we could be too small, and I Would have to start all over again, so I pinned it down further than where the way cap actually began, and then I pulled it back so that it was flat on top of the wake up and I pinned it down, they see on attract boy. I proceeded to do the same thing with the sides of the way cap, so I pulled them down straight down to the side, not towards compact, because that will also, I don't really know how to explain it. So the video that I do post in the description will explain it better for you guys but yeah. So I only have three pins right now, as you could see there, but I actually did go back and later and add two more T pins in between the one that's in the middle and the one that's at the end. So there would actually in the being five pins there just because it did help lay it flatter when I did go in it so later on. I forgot to mention the size week head that I'm using is a 22 inch week week head. I figured out the measurement by measuring my own head. Amazon does have them, so I will link that down below as well the thread that I'm using also came from Amazon kind of hard to explain how I started threading it. But basically I just did a regular stitch, so I'm gon na put my needle through the frontal through the tap and then I'm going to make sure that the needle was lying in between two of the strands so that it made a loop. And then, when I pulled it tight it secured that, like a knot, that's basically how I stitch the entire wig, so you basically just have to do that every single time, just to make sure that's secure a couple of times. I didn't mess up and I did not v read by accident, so I just flap back carefully with the needle and if that makes any sense, but yeah there's not much to it. You just have to keep doing that all the way to the end. So once you get towards the and of the wig cap itself, there is an elastic and they're thicker band, but it's not a full band. It'S just like little pieces of elastic like a little white strings of elastic, so you're, basically gon na follow the same steps as you would as if it was a mesh cap you're going to just sew through the top of the fabric and not the actual elastic Itself, if you sell through the elastic, then it will not stretch like the wig itself when you go to put it on. It will not stretch it stretch over your head, which means you'll have to redo the whole wave all over again. So you're going to be sewing through just the top of the fabric. The video that I post will explain that to you better and show you better, but that's basically what you do want to get to the bottom of the wakeup. So I did not film how I started it just because one I was trying to figure out how to start it, so I did it on the second or third row. I showed you what I was doing so I didn't cut the track. I just folded it over and I made sure that it's super secure where I made that hole. So what you're gon na do when you're starting it is you're going to sew through the track just at the edges just about there secure, but when you're actually selling through on the wake up, you'll see you're going to sew like under it or like over it Or between it, the best way to say it, but you can see what I mean in the video but yeah, and it's just the same stitch that I was doing on the frontal just all the way through. So I used about two and a half bundles of hair, but it was a tedious process just because I was trying to figure it out, and then I was also having pieces of hair that were getting stuck, as you saw a little while back. I did spray down the hair a little bit of water just to help, keep it secure or help keep it like out of the way like the flyways out of the way, but I want to say because it was my first time doing it. It did take me like a couple hours. I spent a total of twelve hours working on the wig so between then I trying to figure out what frontal and then I was also trying to figure out the the tracks haven't laid them properly. Those lines, but you see, were about a pinky with spacing. My friend told me to do that just so that it wouldn't be 1/2 full, and it's just easier that way, just so that I had a guide to go along when I was doing it, but having those there, I actually stopped following the guide. I didn't end up following it, some some parts of it. I did some I didn't, but those ones were about a pinky width and they look very big about my pinky, even though my fingers are small, my pinky is very thick, so God was about a pinky with space between those lines. I want to say I kept that same distance between each track, but I did want my wig to look fairly full, so I kind of just eyeballed it to see what fit best and what look the best to my liking. They see on a drag. So this part of the wig is where I started to cut the tracks. Just because, if you continue to fold it over, it would look both feet and that would make it look like natural. So I cut them just so that it would lay flatter. But I just went through the same process. All I did once I got to the end of the track, was cut it. I finished. I just cut that access we cut out so like I was saying for with a frontal when you're placing it you don't want to place it right. On top of where the we cap itself starts, we're gon na place it a little further down and then now I'm just cutting that excess depart. Oh next, I went on to bleaching Lynott, so what I'm doing is I sprayed a little bit got to be on the lace just so that it wouldn't see through the lace this pocket thought I was using. I bought at my local shoppers just because, when I ordered the bleach and stuff from Beauty Supply, it didn't come in with a unit to so I just use this. You don't want the consistency to be watery, you want it to be fairly thick either. Mine was still a little too watery or using a brush was the wrong thing for me to do, because, as it was sitting there, it was like. I have a couple of strands that you can't see that are hidden that were pretty blonde and it was seeping through. So you do want to use something else. I see people use like a classic winter night, just so that it's spread, but I also feel like I could have made my consistency a little thicker, so I didn't have to use too much developer. I used 10 volume 10 developer just because I was a beginner. I didn't want to have to do. I didn't want to use too high of a volume and screw up so I'd rather wait longer and use unless developed less than the lower volume developer, but I did end up only having it sit there for about 45 minutes and it came out. Okay, I could have done another round there, because there were a couple knobs that I found that work bleach, but I was plucking the wig anyway, so I'm like majority, what's gon na be gone, you see it. I was more concerned about the front of the wig, so I ended up washing out the bleach with a purple shampoo just help tone it a bit and then for plucking. I didn't really put too much of me plucking in it. As I later sat down off-camera and I really went to town on plucking it but yeah I took my time even though this clip is fed up. I was moving very slow just because I didn't want to over plucked my wig but yeah. I did a section by section, so it kind of went to the front and then I did either side of the wig and then at one point in this clip here you see me kind of just going like drag a hole right of the wig. I did end up section off parts after, like I said I did go more in depth. Off-Camera with cooking, I spent maybe about an hour kind of just perfecting it to see how I wanted it to be, but it actually came up. Are you pretty good and I really liked how it looked? I did let the wig air dry overnight and I did straighten it afterwards. I did have to blow-dry it just a little bit more just because the ends weren't completely dry. Yet I ended up using this flat iron. I got off of Amazon I'll, have it linked down below, but it works wonders like it's amazing. I'Ve recommended it to a couple people because they were looking for flat irons, and this is definitely one. I would recommend it's very inexpensive. It'S like this. Amazingly, I love it so much, but like honestly, it was they see on a track boy. Are you guys so that was the video? I really hope you guys enjoyed learning with me. I definitely will be making a couple more videos of me making League this. One was my first time doing it. So there's obviously things that I did that I feel like I know I can change for the next time. I do it and it's definitely something that I do want to film. The part two to this video will be me actually installing the wig. The video I felt was too long for me to add that part in, because that's a whole nother like our two hours of any day of like footage to edit on its own. So that would have made the video like super super long, and I know people aren't gon na watch that I really hope you guys enjoyed the video honestly truly. Let me know if you guys do want to see another video like this I'll, probably be making one within the next month, or so I really had fun doing this. It was a great experience. Definitely something I'm glad I did while in quarantine, because it definitely took up like a full day or so of my time. So it definitely kept me like active and kept me occupied while being stuck inside.
