How To Make A U Part Wig

Glam fam today we're going to be making a? U part, wig with this hair, here's the vogue hair if they're virgin hear from Sam's Beauty. This is the natural straight hair in 24 inches, I'm also going to be using needles and thread and t pins. And a? U part wig cap and of course over here I've got a towel for all of my needles. I have my wig head wrapped in plastic, because I am trying to get cotton all that now. Let me let you have a closer look at this hair, as you guys can see here. It'S rather silky. This is 24 inches of here, and it does stand out a bit on the end, but it's not excessive. It does do a little bit of shedding, though, but I will tell you the wefts are nice. Here is the cap on the mannequin head. I do have it turned inside out and I have a tee pinned on each of the corners as well as on the ear tabs. Now on the top, I'm really not overly concerned. They do have a string that kind of holds together across the front and you've got your u parting along here. Now we do have the elastic tabs, which is why it's turned inside out. So that way, you can easily position that wig on your head and tighten it up if need be. So I'm going to start and by the way, if you guys are looking for a more detailed tutorial, I'll put a link to my other wig making tutorials. So you guys can see more of the inner workings. This one does kind of zoom through it. So while it is in some ways beginner-friendly, I would not consider it completely for beginners, so you're going to start off by just attaching this to the nape of the unit and I'm going to stitch directly across that bottom line. You'Ll want to kind of see it evenly go across there all the way. So that way, if they're trying to pull the hair up later, anything like that, the very first thing you see is that hair underneath and not have it little eye beautiful, because that's not cute can't have that all your business shown in fact, so we're just going To stitch this across, and I am doing a lock stitch, which basically means so me just sewing through I'm, actually bringing the needle underneath the thread and allowing to kind of help lock in place. So if it starts to loosen up the whole effect, isn't just popping out so we're going to speed up a little bit because ain't nobody got time to watch all it is alright, so still continuing that all the way across the nape and you'll notice. Once I get to the end section, I'm going to tie it off, but then I will take that track and turn it over. I'M not cutting the tracks because every time you cut you have another section where the hair is going to be more likely to shed, and this just kind of helps the hair to last longer part to stay. Fuller, look better! All of that loveliness, so you guys can see here I've gone ahead and tied off and then we're just going to take that West and turn it back around I'm going to place another pin in there, which is why I like to work on big kids, because I can't stab real people for some reason: it's still against the law and from there we're going to go ahead and stitch on back the other direction, which I'm really not going to show you guys the whole thing we'll skip forward from here because yeah, I know You guys are not trying to watch every single step. I mean making this wig like I love y'all and of course you love me, but let's be real. Did you really want to watch me? Do this for like two hours, yeah? That'S how long it took me about two hours to make this unit and I'll apologize now, my lovely daughters and my beautiful wife are walking around the background in and out of the refrigerator all kinds at the whole video so be glad I'm doing a voiceover. Alright. So once I get up to about where the the ear line would be, I'm just going to go ahead and continue coming right on across, and you guys can see. I'M just moving those pins on up to what I feel like it's beneficial for me to have it, so you guys can kind of see there we're bringing it right on up now. You want to be careful not to sew through the elastic on the sides. If you're sewing through it you're making it to where that cat cannot stretch very well, and here we just begin to bend it back and go the opposite direction. So it's not overly complicated, but I felt like you guys, would possibly see a bit better from this angle. Hopefully it helps and loki abu. We ran out of the first bundle. So what i do is i just keep that same thread on there. I'M going to go ahead and feed another weft on and then we just continue stitching like nothing ever happened. I know some of you are like who was that in the bottom right corner? That'S my wife holding our youngest daughter back there and for all of you who be those hateful comments on my videos: no she's, a real woman. Yes, i'm a real man and no, we are not in some sort of open relationship in all that we are a real couple. We'Ve been married for almost 10 years. Oh thank you for your congratulations. You'Re, amazing. So right here around the ear tab, we're just going to go ahead and tilt down and i'm going to go with the curvature of the unit same thing along like with the nape. I want to make sure that we are getting a very clean line. So if the wind blows, your tracks are not showing, it just, looks seamless and gives you a better blend, so i'm going to bring it up like that and stitch before I bring back around so of course I sped it up because I didn't want to cut It out, but it wasn't necessary to do it in slow mo even then from there on one side, rounded that out, I'm just going to go ahead and continue curving it and sewing it on towards the back. I talk so much you guys so now. We'Ve done that on both sides and I've brought it back, I'm just going to go ahead and bring it up to just beneath that's what happens when you pray for people a little too hard, they just sling on back we're going to go just beneath where the? U part portion of the top stops, I'm going to stitch it down and then we'll bring it back down to curve away from that line. So we don't want it to be too bulky up there and create a massive amount of lumping. So I'm not going to take it all the way up, we're about half an inch off and then we'll just bend it back and bring it back round. Do the exact same thing on the opposite side? Don'T act like you, don't know. What'S going on the other side, it's same thing to smear it a bit if you have to but staying down, flip it and reverse it, alright, so we're up here to the top. This is how much we have left just want you guys to see nothing too. Major and we're just going to continue our same process on this cap: okay, so stool stitching and we're just continuing that from there we're going to go ahead and get all the way up to the top, and once you get along here, you're going to fold it Across and I want you to go all the way along the edge of that seam, this again comes down to it, lying as flat as possible, creating this little gap as possible, so you are not showing as much of your business, so I tried to have Allison Hold the camera here and that we could get in really close, so you get way too far all up in the business you can see here. I end up running out of thread. Usually it's best to make sure you have enough thread. So you don't have knots and bumps and things in there, but thankfully this nylon thread is not like massively thick, which, by the way, links to everything to include the hair will be in the description box below. So, if you're interested in any of this just check out down there, if you leave a comment, I'll just refer you back to the description box, I love you, but I think it's hurt from type and responsive sometimes, and you know I need these thing - is the Fall off because, obviously they're making money look at these wigs, yeah, okay! So we're just going to continue on all the way to the edge you can either snip it at the end, or you can fold it under and fill in that gap that you guys saw at the beginning, which is exactly what I ended up doing once we Finish with that, I'm going to put these side combs. Well, these wig combs really into the unit, I'm going to put it in the nape, we'll put it at the top of the. U part they'll end up being one on the other side, one in the center and then they'll be two by two ear tabs. So a total of six combs and they'll be stitched in like so and honestly. This part's not that difficult. But I knew someone was going to ask me so I was like you know what I know. I'Ve got my visual learners here. Let me go ahead and show them how it was sewn in, and this is how I recommend holding it cuz. You guys see letting it lay flat and trying to do it was it was giving me, oh so we're just going to continue sewing right on through here and once we have that done, we're going to continue it like five more times. You know. I latched my little elastics in there. You can see how the columns are attached. I did end up adding three more and I'll. Show you how those are in a moment from there you're going to cut that thread in between only do this when your wig is finished, or you are going to need a lot more tee pins to hold that baby in place. What happens when you have cheap sheers? Okay? So here we have six combs, I'm wanting you to see where they are. I'Ve got one of the nape one by each ear, just above and then you've got the one in the middle and the two initial on the corners. I have a really lazy, braid down pattern, which you can just do a French braid across or you could do Kwan rows. Kronos will give you the most security but she's not wearing her hair like this today. So I just was like cut me. A woman sit down and she was like ooh yes, and so this is what happened. So I want you guys to can see that I did leave out her perimeter just so. If the wind blows, it looks more natural, you can see her natural hairline and justice bomb because you know she's bomb, alright, so we're going to start off by placing a middle comb in there. I'M sorry, you guys can't see everything. What I promise is nothing overly special and you're just going to slide that the columns into that top anchor braid. I had there same thing with the ones around ears just biting into his anchor braids. I did already have it latched where the elastic was and you're just going to make sure to insert your comb at the base from there. The section that you left out up top and around the edges with honestly that you shaping can be any size. I know someone's going to ask it's totally fine if you want it to be a smaller section, the wig will mold and all that Here I am brushing her hair in with this unit with a nylon bristle brush now here, if you want to get more of A seamless blend this is where you would go in, and layer, the wig and honestly. I just wanted to show you guys how to make the unit in this one I'll probably show you a separate video on how we curl and style this, but I do want you guys to kind of see how it goes on I'll have her turn around in Just a moment, so you can see all the lovely curves and edges and all that it's like a grand reveal, but look at this here. You guys it is really nice here. It does do a little bit of shedding, but it's nothing massive and yeah. So I have her turn around and that way you guys can kind of see what's going on all right, so the thing I like about it is this is something that is very minimal tension you guys can see. It holds up pretty well in terms of like being able to stay in place, all that you can take it in curly, and it's something that basically pop on and go. You can take it off so get to the scalp. I was worried about it being stitched on how F a comma, if you do want to stitch on like a sewing. That'S always an option. That'S available to you, which would allow you, like those clients. So just don't follow instructions. Well, you can't get them to keep stuff on their head yeah. This is what to do now. You can put it in a ponytail, like you guys, can see here off to the side, to the back. Whatever that's why I left our edges blue, because we will not be edgeless in Seattle, not at all, so hopefully you guys liked it. If so, give us a thumbs up and subscribe. We love, you guys, take care, bye, bye and stay clam.
