Ponytail - Custom Color Blending

Ponytail Made from Two Different Hair Wefts for Custom Color Blending 

What a unique color, I said to myself when I saw the customer's hair. No wonder it was hard to find a right color ponytail to match her hair color. Finally, she and I agreed to make it. 

The next challenge was to find the right color weft. They were too light, too dark, to warm, too cool, ...

I split the wefts and sew them differently, one color on top and bottom the other. 

After I made the ponytail and applied to hair and wrap the tail around it, her ponytail was seamlessly fit.

Hair: 

O'ra European Straight 3 oz bundle 18" #60 White & 14" #8

* 18" hair cut to 14" to match the length.

Topper made from Long Wig

 

<After>

 

Susan showed me her wig and asked if there was any way to make it lighter — possibly turn it into a topper. I said yes and showed her a sample I had already made.

 

<After>

She said, “I’m in the right place! I’ve been looking for a specialist who can do that!”

<After> 

 

After a thorough consultation, we decided to cut the bottom part of the wig and turn it into a wide topper that would cover the cowlick at the back of her hair.

<Before>

Since the wig was fully hand-tied, it was more challenging to convert than a wefted wig. Still, I carefully cut and hemmed the perimeter and attached clips according to her hair pattern.

The hair loss from trimming the base was minimal, and it turned out to be a beautiful long human hair topper.

Clip In for Gray Hair

 

Kim had a small, neatly made bun at the back of her hair. She was concerned about hair thinning due to alopecia and wanted to know if there was a way to make her hair look a little fuller.

I showed her a custom-made set of clip-in extensions and applied three pieces — one from ear to ear and one on each side. Since she still had enough natural hair, I told her I could make her a full set to add both volume and length if she wished.

Unfortunately, I didn’t have hair in her color — a beautiful salt-and-pepper gray — at that time. I told her that if she could bring hair in her color and preferred length, I could make a perfectly matching set for her.

A few days later, she brought the salt-and-pepper hair! It was a perfect match and just the right amount — 3.4 oz. I made a three-piece set for her and applied it. The result looked just like her own natural hair.

Kim was very happy with the result and kindly allowed me to take her before-and-after photos and post them on my blog.

 

Thank you very much, Kim!

Wig Styling - Style a wig like your hair

 

One afternoon, a customer called and asked if I could style her wig like the one in a photo. After she described her wig, I said yes.

The photo above shows the finished look. She planned to add hair ornaments to complete the style because her event was the next day. 

The reference photo

It was a bit challenging since the wig wasn’t fully hand-tied — it had wefts — so I had to be careful to spread the hair evenly to keep the wefts from showing. That’s also why we adjusted the style slightly from the reference photo.

She asked me to share these photos on my blog to show others who wear wigs that they can style their wigs however they like.

Ponytail - Tailless, Inserted Ponytail

She already had hair but wanted more volume to create a thick French braid.

At the same time, she dreamed of having a ponytail—but didn’t want the usual wrapped look around her own hair.

 

 After a detailed consultation, she chose an O’ra European Human Hair Straight (3oz) in color 14-184 (18/24). I used it to create a tailless ponytail just for her.

When she returned for the fitting and pickup, she asked if I could French braid her hair together with the ponytail. I did—and the result was a full, beautiful braid that blended seamlessly with her natural hair.

She was so happy with her new look!

Thank you for letting me capture the moment with a picture.

 

Clip-In Partial

 

Thank you, Evelyn, and thank you to her mom for allowing me to take and share these photos here on my blog.

A mother brought her beautiful daughter, Evelyn, whose hair was missing on one side of her head. 

Fortunately, she still had about two inches of hair on top—just enough to conceal the clip-in part of a weft extension once it was made. 

I carefully measured the area of hair loss, calculated the weft’s width, and determined the exact placement for the clips so the extension would stay secure and blend seamlessly without showing.

The weft hair we selected was slightly darker than Evelyn’s natural shade. 

She loved how it looked even more than her own hair and decided to color her hair to match the extension.

A few days later, Evelyn and her mom returned to pick it up.

 I fitted the clip-in extension, blended it with her natural hair, and the result was beautiful!
