You not even a real wig maker if you havent cried over using the sewing machine before lmaoo. My aunt is s seamstress and she told me that all of the new plastic machines aint worth a damn.
Thanks for the advice! I used to hand sew my wigs but once I learned how to make my wigs on the sewing machine the game honestly changed. I wanted to take a class but I wasn’t trying to make an investment to be left looking crazy at the end. I literally taught myself best thing I’ve done this year 💪🏾 #newsubcriber
I can’t remember when I started sewing wigs but of course I started hand sewing. About a year ago my mom bought me a sewing machine bc she saw that I hand sewed my daughters bday outfit. But like u said that puts a strain on your wrist so I thought i could cut down threading needles etc etc.. if I just use my machine.I literally read my manual to learn how to use my sewing machine then had trial and error with making wigs on it . Yes I cried and was very frustrated but I’ve finally got comfortable using the machine. But now I’m thankful I found your page, I will look at you as my mentor bc sis ima need to learn measurements for others
I respect and appreciate your video. I had a very similar situation to happen with people affiliated with her, and I had documentation stating my class was incomplete, and PayPal didn’t refund even half of my money. I’m glad we’ve got you speaking the truth. What you said is truly how I felt in every aspect. The messed up part of it is it’s your own race.
Definitely watched to the end and learned a lot. I love how honest you are! Crazy I found you on YT--I live in NC too and never came across your IG. I wish my hand sewn wigs only took 2 hours--I have to work on them for a day or more...smh.
Adrienne Coles thank you so much! How long have you been doing the handmade wigs? It will get quicker I recommend buying at least 6 curved sewing needles and thread them super long before you begin. That cut time for me when I did them
Yes yes and YESSSSS!!!!!! I was one of those ppl searching for classes bc I never knew how to even work a machine. But after watching so many videos, doing my own research CRYING GETTING FRUSTRATED and PRACTICING....I TAUGHT MYSELF!!!!!!
I really needed this cuz I’ve thinking about starting to make my own wigs by sewing machine cuz I hate hand sewing and I’m honestly not that good at it either lol so thank you so much!!
North Carolina 🤘🏾 so inspirational. I’m in the journey now to start my wig making Business. I use to work at a T-shirt factory so I know how to work a sewing machine. But I’m having trouble actually being confident enough to get my name out there. I made my first sewing machine wig under 40mins and made it for myself. The wig was slightly small. But I think my problem is transferring measurements and I believe the manikin head was not a accurate size. I will be buying the GEX brand ASAP. Thanks you for this info.
Ooooh !! Thank you for making this video. it has certainly been a journey learning to make wigs on a sewing machine. You touched on everything you can possibly go thru.
Man this video is the truth! I recently started a wig business and realizing this hand making AINT IT. I’m in Chicago and I’m having a hard time finding someone in person to teach a class. Ima keep trying tho! Thank you for this video fr!
I needed this! Thank you so much for being honest. I make wigs and I’m definitely getting me a sewing machine and giving it a try. Btw you gained a new subscriber.
Thank you sis raw n real 💯💯 helpin us all, love ya for this I want to learn more about colors and different weaves the pros and cons if yu can share more in vids that would be awesome🙏🙏 again thnks beautifully done #slay🔥🔥
Thank you so much "GORGEOUS" I watched till the end waiting to see which machine you were using, I actually was on Amazon but wanted to watch a few videos to see which machine was most recommended. Your video was great, very informative. I think I will take this ride to my local sewing machine store thanks to you💞 KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK🙌
Thanks for your transparency. Tendonitis is no joke. First time here really enjoyed it. 😊 I started out with that same project runway brother machine didn't last me 3months🤣🤣 but many blessings to you
Loved it til the end. Been making wigs by hand x2 years. Hands hurt!.. starting channel.. but...would love to learn machine sewing my wigs. Your video was very interesting. There is a sewing machine shop around the corner. Thanks!
T I R R A B I’ve had that happen when I first started too, it’s a few factors that can alter your measurements or shrink the cap to lose the measurements
Could you do a hands on sewing machine class. I'm in va and can't find any in my area. I have a two sewing machine. I can't even thread my machine. The tutorials are much better than some of those classes.
Just found your channel because of this video and I'm definitely subcribing...Rona got me exploring all kinds of things. MaybI ask what type of my machine did you get the 2nd time?
I never post comments on videos, you really made so much sense to me. I'm not a stylist at all but I'm interested in wig making. I just inquired about a class from a local girl here in Dallas and the class is $950 🥴 I was sure if it was worth it or if I could teach myself on UA-cam 🤷🏿♀️ thank you for the insight luv cause I was just asking about sewing machines.
JuicyLeanna trial & error helps you in the end. You gotta mess up & learn how to fix things so you don’t make the mistake again. Practice makes perfect ♥️
I also make machine- sewn wigs and it’s the BEST thing! I didn’t want to start selling wigs until I learned to make wigs on the sewing machine due to what you mentioned about your wrist. I self taught myself which was easier for me since I had history in sewing. If your a beginner learn the basics of sewing first.
Thanks for this vid ! I’m a wig maker as well based in NYC and NJ , I bought a sewing machine in May and it’s been a real trail and error for me. I guess my question is do you think I should still take a class ? The classes that are offered are SUPER expensive and I’m just trying to see if it’s really worth spending damn near $600-$800 on a class.
Ki Nicolie I do think it’s some things that a class can help you with it just depends on the class. I know amour_janelle on IG has FaceTime classes that’s cheaper than the hands on class. It’s always room for improvement so never stop learning from others just make sure you’re doing your research about what you will take out of the class.
I have 2 of each wig heads. I hage have sewing machines that I still have used to make a wig with. I have the brother project run way computerized sewing machine. my biggest issues are threading the machine. even with the automatic threader
Omg I can’t believe how ghetto that intro wassss lmaoooooo I was young I’m sorry
If I wasn't motivated to start using a sewing machine before, I definitely am now! Thank you for this video and your everybody can win attitude!
smb0916 I’m glad I could help sis thank you!!!
smb0916 same here..
Them: sewing machine wigs fall apart
ME: BISH! U A LIE😝
J M 🤣🤣🤣
I died when she said that 🤣🤣🤣
J M love tht part! 😂😩
Exactly they last for years
You not even a real wig maker if you havent cried over using the sewing machine before lmaoo. My aunt is s seamstress and she told me that all of the new plastic machines aint worth a damn.
you can also get a heavy duty needle (meant for denim) and it works! i kept breaking my needles lol
TheKyKollectionTV that’s tea sis my needles keep breaking too thank you so much
If I bought a beginner friendly sewing machine, will a heavy duty needle make it last longer?
J B you need a heavy duty needle regardless. the one that comes with the machine will break
Thanks for the advice! I used to hand sew my wigs but once I learned how to make my wigs on the sewing machine the game honestly changed.

Brya Arielle yesss keep pushing sis thank you so much 💖

My normal hand made wig time was 3 hrs and when I first got my sewing machine it was 6😭I was doneeeeee but now I’m down to 2
Just from the beginning I left a like 😂
I taught myself how to use the sewing machine & how to make wigs on the sewing machine. It definitely takes practice.

Great info...new subbie. Can you do a tutorial on how to transfer measurements to the wig caps? I have a big forehead and keep making my wigs too big!

Thank you Sis. I really appreciate it! Xx
Of course babe 💖
I'm scared to use my sewing machine
Thank you for keeping it REAL!
Are you willing on doing a video on transferring measurements..dos and donts?
Thing that happened to me was the wig is beautiful that I had custom made it’s just it was too tight. Even with the right head measurements.
T I R R A B I’ve had that happen when I first started too, it’s a few factors that can alter your measurements or shrink the cap to lose the measurements
Sooooo helpful! Thank you Sis! ❤️
Thank you for being honest
Your channel is going to blow up!😊

Hi Essynce! Great video.. My question is what is the best cap to use for sewing machine wigs? Full head wigs and closure wigs? Thanks!
Veronica Lewis and Hair Prophecy Salon Suites hey babe! Thank you! I use the mesh dome caps!
Sis this is me lol I literally took my wig apart and remade it and it still didn’t measure up right. Sometimes I get it sometimes i don’t
JuicyLeanna trial & error helps you in the end. You gotta mess up & learn how to fix things so you don’t make the mistake again. Practice makes perfect ♥️
Why is this me right now. I wanna cry then after I’m done take a class 😥
Hey, thanks for all the great info.
Girl I had my machine for 2 years and I had the wrong needle in😭I cried for many wigs and it took me hoursss now i fly right thru them

Thank you, you were very helpful
What thread do you recommend? Mine keeps knotting up 😩

This girl on IG is doing a webinar for making wigs with sewing machine for only $150 . Wigzbybella
Can I get 10 rows on a 20" circumference? Is it advisable?
YOUR SO REAL AND 💯💯💯💯❗️🗣🗣
Sierra Scott thank you baby 💕💕
I’m ready to learn, Hell I can’t do no wigs
THANK U SOMUCHNEWSUB! I have been looking for DIY Wigs where my hair can still breathe with it on!
I have 2 of each wig heads. I hage have sewing machines that I still have used to make a wig with. I have the brother project run way computerized sewing machine. my biggest issues are threading the machine. even with the automatic threader
Hey loved your video. Do you think that shedding increases because you cut the wefts?
Moji Ogun hey babe, no it doesn’t because you secure each weft on both ends with the machine by back stitching
Do you have classes, and could u do a class on the measurements
Gail M yes & yes I will have the details on my wig page @wigsbyess on Instagram
Hi! Did you ever start your wig classes? I am interested
Hi
How much do you charge to teach a private wig/sewing machine course ?
