New Pictures

I wanted to show my progress...


To...






I have realised a couple of things about this wig construction:

1. It would have been better if I had made the lace deeper and placed the monofilament galloon back further - this would help me to disguise the galloon easier. It would also mean I could start the crown further back on the head than I will be doing on this wig.

2. Having the extended nape adds more hair to the bulk density when you look at the wig. In future I would not opt to do this again unless I absolutely wanted to wear my hair up for a certain style/event.

3. Ventilating long hair takes a longer time than ventilating short hair due to pulling the hairs through the knot.

    1. Thank you! Cutting hair is a separate skill. I have cut some of my wigs before and I cut the hair of family members, though I have had no formal training. I think if someone enjoys working with hair, is creative and fairly dextrous then they probably make a candidate for wig making and/or hair styling/cutting. There is a course in Haaretz by Galit Italia that teaches wig cutting/styling and I would love to attend.
