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.

Wig Styled, repaired, and reformed

 After being wash and conditioned, 

Human hair wigs should be restyled with a thermal protector to maintain their desired texture. 

My client requested this straight wig to be spiral-curled. 

This picture showcases one of the results.

This fully hand-tied synthetic wig had damage to the mono-filament and lace sections due to wear and tear. 

I repaired, as seen below.

My client requested a fully hand-tied wig with specific amount of hair. 

This wig meets her requirements except for the top, which is slightly thinner than she desired. 

I recommended adding a thin topper to the top 

because the wig and topper are from the same brand and share the same high quality and color.

This picture shows the combined wig and topper.
