Making your own wig

Hey guys, so i know a lot of times going to the salon can be so time consuming plus not to mention expensive. I am going to take you through a step by step approach to making your own unit.

Things you will need:
1. Weaving Cap
2. Hair sewing neddle
3. Weaving thread (this is usually thicker than the normal thread)
4. Head mannequin
5. Your weave! (Obviously).
6. A good tv show to while away the time. I chose Prison break

Step 1: Get your head mannequin. My mannequin is called Zara. lol. She's a beauty. I love her.

Step 2: Put the weaving cap on the mannequin head and start to sew the tracks down as so

Step 3: Once you've sewed the weave until the crown, stop for a bit and sew the closure. This will ensure the closure has enough room to lay down properly.

Step 4: Continue sewing the tracks until you're done.

Step 5: Cut, curl and style!

So i was feeling particularly adventurous this day and so i decided to do some highlights. So what you will need is hair bleach, a brush and 20 volume developer. Mix the bleach and developer in a bowl and apply to the hair as desired.
Let it sit for a bit and then wash it out.

At the end of the day, this is how the hair came out....

I still don't like it so i am going to be cutting it into a pixie cut, although the dye job came out perfect!More on that later.
