it does not tho? if you stick on the hair first and then curl it, the hair on the inside will bunch up and look bad. that's being prevented by forming it first and then gluing it on.. easier? yes. making more sense? no.

It's 1000 times easier to do it flat and twist it. And yes, it makes WAY more sense for anyone with spatial awareness to do it flat first and figure out how to curl it effectively. This was her first attempt. No one's first attempt is perfect. Sorry for the rant, but good lord this comment pissed me off, lol. So condescending (and wrong)

when i cosplayed mami from madoka magica many many years ago, i sculpted her drill curls by absolutely drenching long wefts in got2b glued (the styling gel, not the spray) and pinning them in place around a foam cone. when they fully dried, i then secured them with vertical lines of clear fishing line so they'd keep their shape! the process was pretty laborious, but i was really proud of how they turned out and how surprisingly sturdy they ended up being. i got loads of people asking how i did my wig. thank you sarah for always sharing your process and enriching and encouraging creativity in the cosplay community. ❤

If you ever decide to make more drill curls, maybe pick up a plastic road cone to form the curl around as it goes from quite a wide diameter to a very narrow one, but also has a very stable weighted base so you can safely leave stuff to dry on it.

I literally just finished my Kangel (from Needy Girl Overdose) wig a few days ago using the tape and wire method and this definitely looks much cleaner and less time-consuming. Not to mention my drills are attached to the base wig using a very questionable method involving wrapping wire at the root of the drills around a headband under the wig lmao (I have a performance in two days so I'm praying they don't fall apart). The bolt method seems much more secure, so I might use that to give my wig a glow-up in the future! Thank you for sharing your wisdom with us! P.S. I've been binging your videos recently while working on my wig and I just want to say they're really motivating! ❤
