U-Part Wig Tips/Tricks

Hey you two all right, so I'm filming in my kitchen today to let you know some things, my tips and tricks for making you part wigs, how to make it faster and just everything I use. So, let's just get started first you're going to need some thread and there's two different types of three that you can actually use to make sure? U part wig! You have your regular sewing thread which is like this and it's it's cotton! It'S about its that thick. If you can see that sorry, I keep looking in the window at the window or you have the nylon thread, and I got this from walmart. Is the up post hole straight yep upholstery thread and it's very, very tough, but, as you can see like the difference between this one and this one, this is Wade center and this is nylon, and this is cotton. I actually prefer the nylon thread. It'S a lot better. It comes just like a dollar for this, but it it's actually a lot like it's a lot of thread. I'Ve had this for a minute now, and i love it. So i would actually recommend this, because cotton is not as good for your hair as nylon is, and actually it doesn't really tango. It'S easy to untangle it and when i'm trying to do my so winds or my you part ways, i can actually lay the tracks closer down. So i like this - and i can see this when i'm cutting the thread, but i can't really see this in my head. I don't it's just my preference. I just prefer the nylon thread. Then you have the actual cap that you're going to show your tracks onto um, so you even either have a dumb cat or wheezing like a knitted cap. I prefer the dome cap and you can get these at your local beauty, supply stores. It doesn't matter what time really cuz i've had all times and they seemed to work just as well and suspended. Don'T captain they're about 199 love these caps, but you can use the week. I have used the regular weeding cat with the straps on it, and it looks like this one. This is my BOB if you seen my actual video contest entry, video for Harrison chairs, I had on this wig this bob and it's actually the licenses to that. It'S like yeah yeah. I can see it, so that's the netted one and it has two straps right here, which I wouldn't recommend if you're doing a bob, because these show, of course you can see that so I have to tuck it in under there. It'S just horrible. I haven't combed this ring thing, so it looks bad, but i'm just it's just to show you guys. You know, I'm sorry. I keep looking at the screen. I have the rebel t3i, so it's kind of tempting to look over there but yeah. So you have either this cap or this cap and, like I said I choose this cap now and if you're going to choose these caps, you do have the option of keeping the cap, as is with the band on it or cutting the band off and I've Actually done both of those myself, so this is the this is my Brazilian by the way from TD hair, and I just washed you so that's why it looks like this, but I cut the band off of this one. As you can see, there's no band! I don't recommend doing this if you are not trying to keep it on permanently. If you're going to cut the man off, it's gon na be more like a sew in more than a wig. If you want it that way, you're gon na have to sew everything, because if you don't show this back on, it's gon na be a mess like I. I tried the whole bobby, pin and thing, but it just wasn't comfortable if you wanted to be calm. Oh, I would recommend putting leaving the band or - and I do have one with that - and this is the hair extension airs hair and I left the band on this one. Let me see if I can show you both these together this without the band. This is with the band, so I left the band on this one, and so this actually is nice and it like stays to my head without me, sewing it to my head cuz. I don't show when I do this one all I do I my leave outs right here and I just show this around my perimeter. Brady, that's right here. I just showed this on right there and everything else stays in place. I do probably, if I'm feeling good, I probably put a bobby pin or two in it, but other than that. You don't need much and that's why I like it like this and then you don't have to have an anchor braid in the back. You can just put this on. If you have this one, you have to have an anchor braid in the back to connect this bottom have to because it does not have the elastic band alright and that's for that alright again making the way I would. I do have a lucky little tip or trick. I got this from tease black pearls about putting these tape around the mannequin head, but I also realized that the tape on the mannequin head you'd put this mess your head and then you try to get this. I get the mannequin head as big as your head, so your wigs fit perfectly, but what I've noticed about this wig well taping this around like this - is that the needle moves it drives right over the tape. So it's real fast instead of poking into this styrofoam, because I get a lot of this dive Ronan in my cat was it it's not a problem, but I would prefer to not have it and to just glide, but this only works if you're using the weaving Cap because, if you're using this other cap, it really doesn't matter because it's thick material defendants to stick already anyway, not saying it's hard to sew through it. But I haven't really noticed an improvement with that one. But with the with the weaving cap, it just glides right through, and I can do it extremely bad. Another tip or trick is to have these little T pins. They look like this and it's just to hold your tracks down or hold, though the actual cat down. When you're sewing your hair to keep everything in place, i would recommend these because if i didn't have these and protect me blah blah and I'm sorry if I'm talking fast in this video, I just want to get everything I have to say out. So I won't have to write little comments which I might have to do. Another thing i do recommend is getting a um wigston and i actually put mine on my chair. It'S right there, what you do. It has like a little screw thing down here and you put the mannequin head actually on here. Well yeah. I already have the cap on this because I'm about to do a leg now you just put that to slap that on like that and when you're sitting down in the chair like this, you can actually you see how everything is just here and confined. I can move the head wherever I want it to and it will stay. I can move it down, you know and move it up, so everything is just right here in my lap, like I'm, actually doing a human's head, so I won't actually just put it on a chair more than put it on the table, but it's your preference. I got this for like a good seven dollars, i think, on on ebay. If you would like for me to put that link, i will but it's not that much to get
