How To Make A Lace Closure Wig For BEGINNERS | VERY DETAILED | Ishowbeauty

[@krystallawson9317]

I made my own wig using your video over a year ago, and I love it! So much that I'm wearing it right now. I get so many compliments that it looks so natural. I'm here again because I'm about to make another one. Thank you, sista!

[@t.astiee9662]

Do you know any good hair vendors? I want to try this so bad lol

[@sanperry]

The BEST wig making video I've seen! So many videos have sloppy sewing; I am so happy to find this video that shows exactly how to sew so the wefts are flat and the closure is secure. Thank you.

[@sunshinec1903]

I love, love, love this video! This is exactly how I make my units. I have been making my own units since 2015. Took a break and was switching between wearing what I had and buying synthetic. I want a new fresh unit, so, over the past two months I have been struggling with taking the lazy route out and purchasing one or making my own. I have been stalking sooooo many different companies to see which one to try. However, industry wigs are so thin, so I decided to purchase my own hair and do what I do lolol. I was looking on KZbin to find a video for a refresher tutorial and found this one!!!! This video is soooo straightforward and detailed and reminded me of how easy creating my units are!!!!! Thank you!

This was the best detailed, straight forward, not talking too much video that i really needed . and wasnt afraid to finally let me know what "cut the extra lace off when your done" means i thank you for your tutorials. I absolutely love this technique.

[@brandiluke8278]

Hi, your tutorial is very clear and your camera angle makes it easy to see how you're doing each step. I was curious if you or any of your followers know, what type of dome cap is most breathable and least itchy? Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

[@A-DIY-FAM]

Many youtubers are saying you can sew through the elastic band as of late. I think you all should stick with the method shown in this video. I actually went though the elastic band when I made my last wig and it did not stretch as good. I like trying out new methods, but sometimes old is gold!

[@arieltelford4473]

no it dont stretch

[@keonawilliams9077]

You have to sew through the fabric only on the elastic part just pull it up a lil with the needle and you can feel as you sew

[@raelove3193]

Ok, see that’s the part that got me confused @ 15:05 she says she sews through the mesh & not the band. What does she mean by that? Does she mean like the top layer only and NOT the whole thickness of the band?

Okay so I’ve never picked up a needle and thread in my entire life. You literally taught me how to sew and I was making my wig with you in this video 😭. Tysm!!

[@luscious8488]

I like your closure sewing method I'm a beginner & it makes sense to do the sides first & back last

[@SimplyMe23]

Gosh this really made me feel so much better about doing this myself. I’m gonna do some practice ones with synthetic hair first before doing it with my human bundles

[@armygirl8910]

Yes!! I was thinking the same!

[@jasminerodgers9553]

Me as well my goal is to master this by August

[@tiffanylover9471]

Did you ever do it? How did it come out? Any trial and errors?

[@SimplyMe23]

@@tiffanylover9471 I did. Like I said I started with synthetic hair. And I actually started doing it with quick weave glue. That way I can know exactly where to leave my tracks and get into a rhythm with it. Than once I was comfortable and confident I started doing the sewin. And because I already knew where to lay my tracks because of all the gluing practice I tried.… It came out perfect and I was used to sewing already because I was sewing in the closure. I even made my own frontal wig

This is the best wig tutorial I’ve ever seen. I learned so many valuable tips. Can’t wait to make my next wig!

[@sierrawiley7204]

I really love this video! But I do have a question, when you first start sewing on the track, you say you don’t like to sew through the elastic band. I am assuming that is the darker black part around the dome cap. Around 15:00 mark. It does look like you’re sewing through it. Are you just sewing through the top layer, but not the entire band? Is that what you mean?

[@nikeatroy]

You have made so many people confident, love reading the comments here

[@Learnfrenchwithibukun]

Please the needle you using for sewing. Does it come bent when purchased or I will have to bend it before using?

[@kellyj.azania4371]

Ms. Young Africana, what is the best way to convert my u-part into a headband wig? My hair's not long enough for the leave out and I invested too much cash not to wear the unit now. I'm thinking perhaps to stitch the part closed, then cover it with the headband.

[@ariianiya]

This is the best wig video I’ve seeeeen it’s so detailed. Thank youu so much imma mention you when I’m asked who taught me how to make wigs !

[@ashleyluxe64]

I loved this video very detailed thanks so much only thing I will be doing is not cutting wefts and use the overlapping method .. my hair cost 550 and I want to get the most use out of hair I have 4 bundles and a closure, and just in case I plan to use hair without closure I can get a sew in. I will then sew on an elastic band to make the closure fit snug on my head but nevertheless thanks again!!

[@MegaElohel]

The "x-method" for the closure placement is genius, thank you!!

For the closure do you sew on the elastic band?

[@oofihavenousernameideas2451]

@@marci8850 I’m so so late to respond I’m sorry. But no, I sew the mesh on top of the band. You never sew into the elastic or else your wig won’t stretch on your head.

[@angelicagarciasaavedra9515]

Question, I didn't see you take measurements, is it not necessary when using a closure? I saw other videos using a frontal and how to pass on to the dome head your head measurement. I have made 1 wig, I'm a newbie and looking to make my 2nd wig. I like to use single wefts, I bought the hair and separated the wefts. For me, it's a lighter more natural looking wig. I use a Gillette to separate the wefts.

This is the best I’ve ever seen so easy to follow and well made, I’m fed up of buying wigs that are too buggy and I cannot get my size, or I have to pay extra for my size which is small, or they send you medium and not small. So, thank you so much I will be trying your way 😊🎉
