How to Cut Lace off Wig | FOR BEGINNERS

[@valeriewilson7505]

Thank you for getting straight to the point on your wig tuitorial , a lot of these videos are long winded with the girls talking about themselves , and 15 minutes in the finally get to the point , I've worn wigs and know all the ticks because I'm a cancer survivor but when I try to advice someone who is currently struggling with cancer , and I try to find a video to reference there really isn't any good direct straight to the point videos , and when your wearing wigs due to illness you really dont have the energy to watch someone talking for 15 minutes before they start their tutorial. So your video is perfect. Please keep going with this style platform . ❤❤️‍🩹

[@MaDonnaSmarr-m7j]

I agree with the comment about your video being straight to the point this is what beginners need someone who really wants them to understand and not be confused. Bravo keep going girl you are a natural 🎉❤🎉🎉

[@MaDonnaSmarr-m7j]

You are heaven sent🎉! I have never cut my own lace but you gave me courage to do so. Thanks 😂😂😂

[@MaDonnaSmarr-m7j]

I agree with the comment about your video being straight to the point this is what beginners need someone who really wants them to understand and not be confused. Bravo keep going girl you are a natural 🎉❤🎉🎉 Don't trip off of haters and negatives, those are the ones who are jealous of you because whats the need for a negative comment, just positive criticism is it. Naysayers hate JESUS and his kids. I'm totally with you and you'll find it's more with you than against.

I would love beginner videos. I'm losing my hair and will need to resort to wigs soon and I really don't know where to start, there's so much info out there, it's hard to sort.

[@JannaNiki]

I'm going to do a whole beginner series starting in the new year! Let me know what kind of things would you like to know? What confuses you the most?

[@BLAqKGURLLUXE]

If this not a medical condition you can try this Mix Jamaican black castor oil With vitamin E pills and the peppermint oil in a bottle that will allow you to put this on your Scalp Put this mixture on your head every day. When you were in the house make sure to do a hot oil treatment with this mix maybe once a weekI also used vitamin E pills when I had a bald spot which helped Grow my hair back. I hope this made sense if you have any questions let me know

Thank you so much for this video! It's so nice to see a caucasians normalizing wig wearing. I just bought my first wig because I'm tired of extensions pulling on my hair. This helps so much!

Omgah! Thank you! I just purchased my first wig and I’m scared to death to cut the lace!! I’ve literally held off cutting it or trying anything until I find the right video to help me! You did it!!

I'm losing my hair from thyroid issues and have always had thin hair but now, it's bad! I love wigs but have always been afraid to try a lace front wig. Thank you for showing this!!! Gettin' me a lace front right now! If you want suggestions for new videos in this series, I'd love to see one one "how long you can wear a glued on lace front wig" or " how to take off a lace front wig/ release the glue"?

[@TruckieLooks4Aliens]

1. Make sure you take ur thyroid meds at the same time daily 2. Take supplemental vitamins 3. Omega fatty acids 4. Google the “no no foods” for hypothyroids. You’d be surprised at the foods you’re prob eating that you shouldn’t like hummus. I have Hashimotos. When my hair begins to fall out- I know my meds need to be adjusted & I’m not eating enough fatty omega foods like salmon. Your hair will grow back. Also, being healthy through fatigue is super important. Find a gym class bc at least all u have to do in step into class.

[@argusfleibeit1165]

What is in hummus that is bad for low thyroid treatment?@@TruckieLooks4Aliens

[@6hypnone]

​@@TruckieLooks4AliensMmhm. Also look for the more natural meds like NP thyroid. There are also supplements that can help. I'd see a holistic Dr re this problem. They will at least try to get to the root of the issue... The cause. Pharma drs WILL NEVER do this. Laziness, are not taught, and will lose a patient if you get well. I know from decades of dealing w quacks. Soooo much you can do naturaly. Look at adrenals, hormones, stress, cortisol, gut, ton of shit must be addressed.

[@69indigoblue]

What is the purpose of a lace front, if it has to be cut down to the hairline of the wig. The wig could have come with trimmed lace front right out of the box....

[@uqgly]

69indigoblue because the front of the wig, like the front of the head, is covered in lace to emulate a scalp

[@mave143]

Some people want to customize the hair line. So they need to be able to cut the lace around their own head.

[@SlowedSonics]

Dealing with a standard cap wig reveals a hard line integral to the cap’s construction. Lace front eliminates this portion in favor of a frontline of lace typically from around the ear all the way to the other ear. This allows for the wig to be glued on and creates a very convincing hairline sometimes indistinguishable from a beautiful natural hairline. 360 Lace wigs take the idea of the lace front wig and extend that all around the entirety of the wig, which permits the wearer to have a convincing back hairline (great for ponies, etc).

[@Luvhugging]

What is the function of the lace front? Leaving a little lace ~can't people see it when they are close up to talking to you? What if it doesn't match your skin tone? 🧐 I hope you reply back, as I noticed you haven't responded to the other viewers questions. 🤔 Thanks so much for sharing 🙋‍♀

[@Babygorl1209]

The lace front creates the illusion of natural hairline, so it looks less wiggy. If the lace doesn't match your skin tone, you can blend it using some concealer. :)

[@JannaNiki]

If you look very closely you will be able to see the lace, but if done right it should blend in to your skin and look relatively unnoticeable. If it doesn't match you can try to lighten it with some foundation powder or if its too light you can tint it with some lace tint spray.

[@grnddesign]

The wigs I have from Envy or Belle Tresse don’t have such long lace in front. Do you have tips & techniques for making the lace front look more natural on wigs like those?

[@sharonmoseley5779]

Very helpful. I agree with you better to not cut enough than to cut it to short. At least that's what I'm going to do. ❤❤❤❤

[@Kricket2020]

Can’t wait to see how you style this FC. it looks so natural!! Thank you for the tip video.

[@trose348]

TY , helped so much but can't find anything about the lace in the back of the wig. I am guessing cutting that off would be correct? I wasn't sure if it was for pulling down the wig & needed to be left on? Also, can you tell us the makeup you are wearing & or if you have a video on that & how to apply it? Ty again!

[@JannaNiki]

Yes you can cut the lace off at the back as well :)

[@lisagardner4814]

I just got a wig and I had one prior and I cut the lace way too short I’m gonna try your tips with the doing doing the scissors at an angle instead of straight across I have a really tiny hand so I’m not sure if the cut off a lot of the ear

[@JannaNiki]

Using small scissors definitely helps too! I show a little bit on how I cut around my ears in my video called "Stocking cap method -how to" skip to 5:20.

[@yesvelas4]

I've ruined so many wigs & it's really frustrating cause I can't blend the lace to my skin and yours looks so natural

[@arey1555]

So do you glue the rest of the lace that’s left on your wig, to your forehead? Just trying to understand what the cut lace is left for. Isn’t it noticeable if not glued?

[@rosariodejesus5797]

Very nice and how should I leave my natural hair in a ponytail or loose because it's my first top lace wig I just got it I don't have any experience with with wigs 😉

[@JannaNiki]

I would suggest putting your hair in two braids and criss cross them in the back. Sometimes a ponytail can look like a little bump in the back of your wig.

[@blueyedscorpio]

Hey just a quick question I was wondering what the correct name is for a unit that you can part anywhere.? I’m looking for like a bleach blonde short bob but one without a part so I can like run my fingers through it and kinda wear it off to the side or in a pony … can u help? Idk what to google lol

[@juliemosher6404]

I watched your video twice. I just finished cutting my first lace front. How do you deal with static electricity while you're cutting? I don't have the appropriate Vision to cut it on my head so I attempted to cut it in my lap because I only have the frame type wig stands not something I can pin it to and the static is terrible and I just I don't know I'm not sure if it's good or bad and can you recommend a hairbrush because when I'm using is prone to static which doesn't help when there's already enough in the air

[@angeliquelamanna7339]

This might be a silly question but…Why don’t these wigs just come with the lace already cut to the hairline? What is the advantage of us cutting them ourselves??

[@yesyes-yt7fm]

well you answered your own question a bit 😹 everyone’s hairline is different and ear positions are different as well. so companies leave the extra lace on to save time and also to let people customize it to their needs

[@amberflores911]

My question is, wouldn't you want to wear the wig on your head while cutting your natural hairline? And why would this be a problem? I have so many questions about the statements you made. In your case, prevideo that it makes me very confused. If you're going to cut a wig to naturally fit your hairline. It should be on your head, right? And you should show us where to cut it, because that's what I googled, and that's what came app and in your video, you said you're not going to show how where and why to cut your hairline, I'm super confused. Can you please elaborate?

[@beckyhalfhill3552]

I'm getting my first partial lace front wig tomorrow. Will I have to cut the lace??? LOL I barely am adjusting to the standard cap. If you use glue do you glue the lace or just above it or what. I'm nervous and excited at the same time!

[@JannaNiki]

I'm excited for you! How do you like it so far? Did you have any lace to cut off? and if I'm using glue I glue the lace and maybe a little bit above it.

[@elfprincess8444]

What wig are you wearing? The part looks very natural. What did you do to the part to make it natural looking?

[@JannaNiki]

This is the Jessica long bob from Freedom Couture. I think having a flat part helps to make it look more natural. So after you wash the wig, set your desired part and let the hair dry like that. Then use a hot comb to further flatten the hair and maybe use some mousse to keep the hair down.
