How to make a Doll Wig [ Bangs Style ]

C L I C K H E R E !
So this was the very wig that I have created, and it is not that bad overall. It is not perfect to say the least, but I think it works because the hair is so dark. I should not have put all the effort in the back of the, and I should have worried more on the front and top part. Also, the way I created the wefts were not the greatest. I will try a different approach next time. I still hope that you guys find this helpful in any way :D

I have made wigs and I recommend you do the scalp differently. What you should do is put the weft facing the opposite direction of how the hair is going to lay. Glue the weft and wait for it to dry, then flip the hair over and brush down. I personally would dip the hair in water to weigh it down. For the other side, do the same thing. This time, push the other side against the side that you had already placed. Hold in place until dry. Flip the hair, dip it water and you're done! This way you won't have to paint the hair :) Hope this helped :) -A Universal Hixel

I actually did not believe when he said this was his first wig. It looks amazing! You did an amazing job!

[@HeXtian]

awe thank you so much! :D

[@NarcissicNingyou]

Your first wig looks good, there are few few mistakes that you made but you managed to make the wig look nice. When it comes to weft making I usually use the glue method with yarn or alpaca, for the type of hair you used making the weft by sewing makes the weft a lot neater but if you really have to use glue, taping the hair first will help you to have some neater and even looking wefts (That's what I used to do it really helps a lot) .

[@HeXtian]

thank you for the tips! I would use alpaca but it doesnt match the look i was going for. alpaca looks bery soft and layered. I wish I knew how to sew but the glue method wasnt too bad hehe

[@andpar6941]

How do you do the sewing method?

For a first try it's a really good wig. :) I had (and still have) the same problems with miscalculation of the wefts. It helps to paint the wigcap in a similar color to the hair, so you can leave a little space between the wefts. If you have access to natural fibers, you should use them instead. They blend in way better and the wefts look fuller without layering them as thick.

[@elizabethoshea9186]

Legendry wig! This is actually a really clever way of making wigs and giving dolls hair.

[@jabix6382]

can you do the crystal gems? 😄

[@LeviAckerman-zf5hl]

Jabi X I agree do one of the crystal gems!!

[@swartgirl5878]

seriously, you should create your own custom doll making business, because you have real talent!

[@NenaGirl514]

You did so well for your first wig! Amazing! A tip for the future though, making the top of the weft thin and even will help you so much with the weight issue. Also, at the top to cover your wig cap you can take thin sections and make the part more natural by taking small groups of hair and flipping them over (thatching) to criss-cross the part. It helps if you take the top two wefts near the part and glue them facing the opposite direction before doing this and will give a more professional finish.

[@HeXtian]

yes! thank you so much for the tip! :D ill try that next time

[@morganbroo]

Did I just watch a doll get a quick weave....

[@HeXtian]

hahah pretty much! :D

[@rhondaleonard270]

I think for your first wig you did an awesome job. Don't give yourself such a hard time. It really is brilliant truly you did a wicked job. well done big thumbs up HeXtian 🖒

[@HeXtian]

[@piscesbaby7612]

i love the color and not bad for your first wig!!!

[@kieralambert1579]

@@HeXtian it's better than my first wig

[@barbaralund4311]

Love how had them mix the blue and black. What a great idea. I want to try to make wigs and I really appreciate your video. Your first wig and this is the first wig video I am officially learning wigs from. :-)

[@HeXtian]

Awee thank you so much :)

[@ashleighstewart8256]

I'm so glad I found your video! My first wig was a disaster but after hearing your critique I think my next one will be better. I didn't even cut the messy glue off my wefts!

[@beladonnamccoy2913]

I love it; I love the color and the shine. You did great! It was your first try and you nailed it, perfectly.

[@sinnamon9603]

This is weirdly satisfying it's interesting to see the process of doll making

[@annimanidolls]

It looks good, the only problem with glued not sewn wigs is tht you cant't style It in hot water because glue will melt (learnt It hard way) :(

[@HeXtian]

+Anni Mani i can see that. There are waterproof glue though that can be used. So i know some will curl or style the hair first before glueing

[@annimanidolls]

HeXtian but finding waterproof, fast drying nad drying transparent glue is basicly imposible :P At least in my country

[@NaSaDaism]

Try looking for fabric glues specifically? You might have more luck with those, as they're meant to be washable to be used on fabrics. ^_^

[@Annabel_Lee1809]

That's so amazing! I'm in complete awe! 💙💙💙

[@LeoxRenet]

Thank you for posting this!!! I had been trying to reroot a doll when a long chunk of the reroot holes cracked down her head; I can now salvage her by using your easy to follow tutorial :D

[@torquess454]

I appreciate you showing your good and bad, taking us through your journey, it’s definitely less intimidating knowing that you amazing artist had to learn at one point too, I’ve been procrastinating doing my first faceup cause I want so badly for it to be good and not too amateur and cartoony, but if I don’t at least start, I’ll never get great like you!

I absolutely love your videos!! You have inspired me to try this as a hobby. I have been a stay at home mom since I was 18 years old so that's all I have ever done but my kids are at that age where they've got their own things going on so I'm ready to get myself a hobby, so thank you so much for your informative videos! I think your an awesome person and you have a great personality 🖤🖤🖤

[@smollittletrashcan5550]

I have a suggestion, before you cut or do anything with the hair I would suggest letting it sit in fabric softener for about a week so you don't have the shine of the plastic, unlesss that's what you are looking for

[@chatnoir4776]

try dolligtful to see her wigs it is better to sew them your was amazing i tried and sewing works best

[@chatnoir4776]

PS can you make miraculous chat noir plz. like if you agree

[@smolbean5983]

wolf on fire yesss

[@Candlehearts]

He really dislikes sewing tho 😂 tbh I think both methods work well - dollightful just takes a more sewing heavy approach which is what I've always used for wefts.

[@chatnoir4776]

yha

[@BxtchyLlama]

Chat noir!!! \(^o^)/

[@AnneAndersonFoxiepaws]

I hate glue on my hands too...it drives me crazy! I am glad to see I wasn't the only one to start at the back and end up with too much hair. I have come a long way since then, as you have too and I like elastic and stocking net wig caps with the hair sewn in. I trashed far too many bags of hair with the glue technique and I still use glue for yarn braids but for hair, I am definitely more in favour of the sewn in wig.

[@maytalacedo2942]

Awesome! I love that creative idea

[@lauracolquhoun419]

cut a slit down the pattern and glue 2 wefts inside each side of the cap and pull out and over the glue ontop, it hides the glue ontop and gives it a natural look. if it isn't sitting right, do a boil hair wash to keep it in place :) I think you did a really good job! the colours are lovely

[@dlithehil]

Thank you for the film. Now I know that I used too much hair in one weft and my wigs are fluffy and messy. Cap I prefer do with tights / stockings, the material is very thin. I have one question. Mod Podge is waterproof, so it is written. Did you tried to stylize hair dolls with water?

u did really good don't focus on the mistakes focus on what u did cus that's you'r first try and u nailed it I would probably fail

[@ethan8697]

You should start sewing the wifts. It's a better technique than glue because the roots don't get hard and tacky. It also helps with how the hair lays on the head. Ily

[@HeXtian]

i would, but idk how to sew >

[@chizzstar1232]

I love it it's fabulous!!

[@shinysmeargle2127]

Oh yay! I can start making wigs!!!

[@margaretelliot6224]

I know this video is a bit old but I’ve been looking into making my own doll wig, and I was just wondering if you could paint the wig cap to match the hair, so there’s less possibility of being able to see the white showing through? I didn’t know if the glue would react to it in a weird way as I have actually had that happen to me several times while painting something on canvas, and I just wanted to see if someone in the comments knew if the same thing would happen.

[@HeXtian]

+Taco Cat I paint mine with acrylic sometimes but yes sometimes the glue will make the paint run. Maybe paint it the color you want then layers modpodge on it first before adding the wefts :)

[@CheshireCatGrins]

I think you did an awesome job for your first time boo!

[@snookwitham2404]

Hi hextian, I think this came out quite decent for your first wig! You really have to just bite the bullet and dive right in and do it first hand, like you did, to learn what to avoid next time. It's really hard to explain- you gained invaluable experience and it looks cute too. I remember my first re-root, I focused SO MUCH on the back and creating new holes for hair plugs, so worried scalp would show through- and towards the end, I had to buy MORE hair cuz I used so much. It turned out to be very unnecessary, and although the doll looks cute, she has SO MUCH HAIR!!! It's seriously soooo thick! Lol seems like we made similar mistakes, but we learned next time will be even better! :)

[@rissycake926]

Was it modge podge that you use to put wefts on doll cap? Or different glue? Did it stick well

[@guavabat8089]

So does that glue material (hodge podge?) stay if you ever need to pour warm water over the hair to fix it or straighten it out? Or will it melt and turn into a mess?

[@HeXtian]

i dont really wash the wigs. :D if i have to, i will spray it a little bit. the style is also permanent so i try to preplan the hair if i need it curly or straight :D

[@guavabat8089]

HeXtian That makes sense! Thanks for responding! ^~^

That's a pretty great first wig! There are lots of tutorials out there. Nicolle's Dreams has some on her KZbin and Patreon pages, Xanthi (Jointed Love) has a pretty good picture tutorial. Lomi's Playground, Will Store, and UNNiEDOLLS here on KZbin also have tutorials. Everyone does it just a little bit different. The trickiest part is the parting! I still haven't mastered that, but practice is helping! I can't wait to see more of your wigs!
