Patti you are an artist and you have the most lovely demeanor and voice. Thank you for sharing all your knowledge. The wig world has been a tough one to navigate especially for those of us who have to wear wigs. Thank you♥️
I am so glad I found this video, I have watched several other ways of thinning wigs, the twist and snip method, the just cut out complete rows of hair at the cap method and some others but this one is by far the best method!! I like my wig so much more now that I have thinned with this method. And by thinning it the wig has a much more natural movement to it!! Thank you so much!
Thank you so much Patti for this informative video. A new wig arrived yesterday and it looked like Little Orphan Annie..I never so so much hair and curls, not light and thinned out like the picture of the wig was. So..got me some thinning shears and went right to it and thinned the entire front. What a big difference! Now I can wear it and not just stick it back in the wig box and forget about it. Bless you for the time you spend in helping others!
I just thinned my new wig using your technique & it definitely made a difference. It could probably can use a little more thinning in the back and towards the bottom because it's a 24" length. You are more than amazing and I appreciate you💕....Thank-you soooo much for sharing your knowledge!
SO MUCH FUN Patti you are so much fun! You a're also very knowledgeable, informative and a great teacher. I just bought my first wig and was scared to death of how to make it look less puffy (looks like the 60s). After watching your video I have a lot more confidence to thin my wig out and I'm not so afraid of the entire "wig" thing. Thanks for teaching us beginners that you can be comfortable with a wig and not afraid to work with it. Thanks for all you do!
Miss Patti thank you so much for this video. I just bought my first wig and it is way too thick! The irony is not lost on me. I now can thin it and and be able to wear it!
Thanks Patti! I have a cheap too thick wig that I am dying to try your technique on! Thanks especially for the tip of not cutting that first/top piece! You give the best lessons!
Thank you Thank you Thank you a thousand times for giving me permission to cut my wig. Best thing I ever did. Thank you for teaching me! I am a senior with hair that just changed after my last two surgeries.. Wigs have given me confidence back. I just thank God for your wig whisperer talents!
I love your spunky personality and how simple you make this look. I have one that I love but as you said it looks huge on my head. I'm gonna try this. Thank you so much for making this video!
Thank you so much!! I’m going to try this on my older wigs first, like you said! This will be fun to learn how to do! I love wearing wigs and I can tell if someone hasn’t thinned their wig!
I just bought my first synthetic wig off Wish and had no idea what to do next or how to properly style it and wear it. Thanks to your videos, I got it looking and feeling so much better! I love your energy and your mannerisms and the fun phrases you say. You have a new subscriber in me. Keep doing what you're doing! 💇😘💕
Patti...you are a genius with wig care! I love how you teach and your fun demeanor while doing it. Thanks for sharing your gift with us lesser mortals! 😉. Learning so much from you! Best wishes to you.
I don't think I've ever made a comment on UA-cam but I just have to for this video! I am a new wig wearer, mine fell out due to an autoimmune response. I'm just now starting to find wigs to be 'fun' but I have a smaller head (but not small enough to be petite) and my bio hair was very thin and fine, so my Jon Renau Miranda wig is beautiful but very 'bulky' and unnatural feeling. I've watched several videos but this one was by far the best. Also you're just a joy; I feel like you're a bit of a kindred spirit. So thank you so much kind stranger :)
Thank you so much Latonya! We truly appreciate you watching our videos. If you would like to visit the website, just go to www.wigsbypattispearls.com. Best Wishes!
I bought Nita from you a while back and haven't worn it because it is too thick and doesn't conform to my head (conforming to my head is something I just learned from your video). I'm going to be brave and thin it. Your instructions are invaluable.
Can I just say that I heart you? I have always wondered how to customize wigs and thin out ones that are way to thick. As a sufferer of Alopecia since 2008 your videos are a huge help. My hair has grown back but recently in the past week and a half I have started noticing shedding (gotta love Alopecia, right?). I have some old wigs that I want to try to fix and your videos are amazing! Thank you so much!
You did a Wonderful job. You make this fun and easy to do. I really Appreciate you showing how easy it is to do this. And i especially love the zig zag zig zag...i love that. You make this Fun Interesting and Easy to do. Thanks Miss Patti😄😄😄
Patti you are very charming! Thank you so much for this video I bought a 600 dollars super dense wig that makes me look like a lion and I had no idea what to do with that mess!
Hi Patti, I saw this today, and I thought I have to go on youtube to thank you for this info, and I thought I knew how to do this, but I was all wrong. You give back more to we amateur fake hair wearers, and I am so grateful for fake hair, let me tell you. Thank you again.
thank you so much Patty your tips n tricks help me alot I can't afford one of your wigs I wish I could I'm stuck with buying the very cheap $10-$20 dollar ones so they are all extremely thick n look pretty silly on me so I will try this thank you again and I one day hope to own one of your wigs
Would you zig zag a 130 of a topper because i have thinning shears and need my topper really light because it’s my first topper and always had thin fragile hair all my life now at 62 i have a human hair topper.. thanks
👏Perfect! Every other you tuber who decided to do a hair thinning shouldve watched this! 😮Because this is the way its done professionally! I cringe to know how many people out there have ends a poppin everywhere because they thinned taking clips down the strand 3 times 😒🙄
Thank you for watching! We're happy it's helpful🥰 Patti has many years of experience in the alternative hair industry, and we admire her professionalism. We're glad we can provide these tutorials for all of you!💗
Thank you so much for this! I was wondering if your web site ever does promotions like some of the other big sites. I'd much rather buy from you as a thank you for all of your videos like this one that are so helpful.
Yes! We have sales every couple of weeks. You can go to our website at www.wigsbypattispearls.com and sign up to receive our emails so that you will receive a notice on all future sales.
Thank you so much. Will you please do a video on how to style Allure and Allure Elite? Do you cut yours or is it straight from the box. It is beautiful on you!
Hi Vickie! Patti wears Allure straight out of the box. She just turns it over and gives it a good shake before putting it on. Then she uses the Jon Renau Holding Spray. You will just spray it at the roots then use your fingers to piece the wig into place as to your liking.
Thanks for the answer. Patti always looks so pretty. I can never seem to make mine look as good straight from the box. Guess I just need more practice.
The singing is so sweet, i have a cheap amazon wig which looks so ..yeah. I am going to thin that thing out. It has a fringe as well which needs shortening. An attempt was made to make the middle part look real, but its to uniform. I might get the rit dyemore on the ends .
You are awesome Patti Im so happy my husband found your videos.I'm a new wig wearer , i have a wig that seems like real hair in the back and a mix on top and front. 2 problems Im having is from my ears up it has perma tease and I look like the top of my head is to big. Also the wig cap is to long it goes almost down to my collar. Do you have any videos on how to fix these problems?
Hi Allyson! The permatease issue can't be fixed. You can most likely take up the cap so that it is smaller but we don't offer a video on this because it's such a tedious job. We do offer this service on wigs purchased from us.
This insures that you start at the very base of the fiber/hair. When thinning bio hair you don't do this because the scalp is hard so there is no give which makes it easy to start at the root. With a wig, you have it pinned on a mannequin head which has a little give so if you don't push down, you may not be starting right at the root which would give you an uneven job in the root section.
Hi Patti, thanks for your informative videos. Know this is an older video but would you be able to identify the wig and color directly behind you that cannot be seen when you have your back to the wall & are facing the camera but comes into almost full view to the right (looking at the video) of the canvas block Lola is on when you move to the left side? It's like a really light strawberry tinged brown bob and also the wig and color immediately to the right of that one (blond side part few inches longer with with beach waves)? Thanks so much.
Hi Sherry! Thank you so much❤🥰 Patti is wearing Allure by Jon Renau in 12FS8. It has a traditional wefted cap so it will not be light density. This one is classified as average density and you can expect it to have permatease.
I have a petite head and small face. Is it no surprise then that the wig I bought is way too full and poofy, even tho at the boutique they 'thinned' it a little. I already removed two rows of wefts but still the wig is so big I feel like my face is hidden somewhere in all that hair. I'm going to try your technique. Wish me luck and a little skill too!
I have a wig with synthetic hair and no bangs. I tried to comb the hair down to make bangs but the hair springs right back to where it was. How can I get the hair to lay down on the forehead and stay there. The wig has a whitish material that the hairs are attached to plus a lacey netting over that. Hope you can help. Thanks!
Use a large round brush to pull and hold the bangs down evenly then apply steam with a handheld steamer. It may take a few times but this should do the trick.
Hi Linda! Just about any wig or style can be thinned! We typically recommend going to a trusted salon professional, but if you feel comfortable thinning the wig yourself, you can also do so!
I watched this 7 years ago and few times in between years and many of these how to videos and recommend this to others asking questions on other by videos. The wig you are wearing is the cut I have been trying to find some without the dark roots. I don't think my 80 plus year head is producing black roots, lol. I tried to find the name of the wig on you and can't seem to come up with it. What is her name? please🙂❤I just read the intro and there it is Allure by Jon Renau probably too expensive for me. tks
I'm so glad you like it! Allure is a great style and it's on of the less expensive items since it's machine made. When we have 30% off sales, it's a REALLY good price. Here's the direct link to this piece: wigsbypattispearls.com/products/allure-synthetic-wig-by-jon-renau.
You can do this but be sure they are really sharp so that they don't snag and pull the lace. We suggest using pinking shears as they do a better job of keeping the lace in good shape.
Hi Patti how do I order a short bob topper as I have been conned by companies using reptile adverts as there own and sending a awful nothing like wig in advert
Hi Agnes! You can always look on our website! The wig pictured is always the wig being sold. Here are a few of the bob toppers offered on our website: www.wigsbypattispearls.com/catalogsearch/result/index/?length=251&q=topper&m-layered=1
Wigs by Patti's Pearls - Thank you so much for the many informative vlogs about wigs. I'm a recent user of wig. I have a question if u may, can I thin the any style of wigs or just some? I've heard from other vlogger that not all wigs can be thin because it depends to the wig style. I own this Charlie wig by Paula Young... Playful, shag-inspired long wig with feathery, flicked layers, is this the type of wig that is safe to thin or not? Please help! I do not want to ruin this expensive wig and lose the style after deciding to thin it. However, I can't stand wearing a wig "that looks like I am wearing a helmet"... exactly just like what you described! Thank you for ur time! :)
Ohh I wish I had watched this before my sad hack job on my BelleTress. I've got those little hairs you speak of at the crown. Thanks for the super informative video though. I always love learning from you! 🤗
This beautiful lady is the best in the business. God bless and keep her always.
😘😘😘😘
"God hasn't shown me how to grow this back yet." LOL. Love ya, Patti!

Would you zig zag a 130 of a topper because i have thinning shears and need my topper really light because it’s my first topper and always had thin fragile hair all my life now at 62 i have a human hair topper.. thanks
It really depends on the topper base as to how much you can do to it
👏Perfect! Every other you tuber who decided to do a hair thinning shouldve watched this! 😮Because this is the way its done professionally! I cringe to know how many people out there have ends a poppin everywhere because they thinned taking clips down the strand 3 times 😒🙄

Love ❤️ your videos always, Patti. Can you tell us what the purpose is of pulling downward 3 times at the base?
This is ensures that you have the shears all the way at the base and the hair is pulled tightly.
Thank you so much for this! I was wondering if your web site ever does promotions like some of the other big sites. I'd much rather buy from you as a thank you for all of your videos like this one that are so helpful.

Hi Patti! Could you tell me how to thin the bottom of a topper so it blends with bio hair? Thank you so much - love your warm friendly videos.
Love your video, very helpful and informative. You have a Wonderful personality. Blessings.
You are such a sweetheart. Thanks for funny, charming lesson.
Patti, you look fabulous in Allure.
Thank you so much. Will you please do a video on how to style Allure and Allure Elite? Do you cut yours or is it straight from the box. It is beautiful on you!

The singing is so sweet, i have a cheap amazon wig which looks so ..yeah. I am going to thin that thing out. It has a fringe as well which needs shortening. An attempt was made to make the middle part look real, but its to uniform. I might get the rit dyemore on the ends .
You can do it-- We believe in you!

I did it and my wig came out 😍
Thank you so much Ms. PATTY!
That is so wonderful to hear!! Thank you, dear!!❤
Patti, you're hilarious! I'm going to follow your instructions and bear in mind that 'God hasn't shown me how to grow this back yet!'😂😂😂❤
You can do it!
Amazing tutorial and video. I enjoyed it. Thank you.
Love love your training videos
Goodness you are one helpful snd funny lady! Bless you and I hope this works for my cosplay wig 🥰🥰
Thank you so much!! Best of luck with your cosplay😘
What is the push it down movement good for??
This insures that you start at the very base of the fiber/hair. When thinning bio hair you don't do this because the scalp is hard so there is no give which makes it easy to start at the root. With a wig, you have it pinned on a mannequin head which has a little give so if you don't push down, you may not be starting right at the root which would give you an uneven job in the root section.
Please tell me what wig you are wearing and the colour, I just love it.
Patti is wearing Allure by Jon Renau in 12FS8 🥰
Thank youuuuuu my bob wig was so thick now I know what to do 😍
Thank you so much! Great how-to video!!
Thanks again, Patti for the great lesson! XO
Hi Patti, thanks for your informative videos. Know this is an older video but would you be able to identify the wig and color directly behind you that cannot be seen when you have your back to the wall & are facing the camera but comes into almost full view to the right (looking at the video) of the canvas block Lola is on when you move to the left side? It's like a really light strawberry tinged brown bob and also the wig and color immediately to the right of that one (blond side part few inches longer with with beach waves)? Thanks so much.
Yes absolutely! The straight one (3rd from right) is Cameron by Jon Renau and wavy one (2nd from right) is Mila by Jon Renau. Hope this helps😊💕
You are awesome! I love this video! Thank you! ❤️
Patty, I love your demos, what is the wig you have on in this video, I love it. Is it light density at all?
Hi Sherry! Thank you so much❤🥰 Patti is wearing Allure by Jon Renau in 12FS8. It has a traditional wefted cap so it will not be light density. This one is classified as average density and you can expect it to have permatease.
I have a petite head and small face. Is it no surprise then that the wig I bought is way too full and poofy, even tho at the boutique they 'thinned' it a little.

Use a large round brush to pull and hold the bangs down evenly then apply steam with a handheld steamer. It may take a few times but this should do the trick.
Lovely, can we do the same on a shorter wig?
Great instructional video. Is there any chance you can thin a curlier wig like editors pick? Thank you
Hi Linda!
Just about any wig or style can be thinned! We typically recommend going to a trusted salon professional, but if you feel comfortable thinning the wig yourself, you can also do so!
Thank you for your help . I am so glad i found this video
Glad it was helpful!💕
Thanks Patti will you please show how to trim a Reese wig that is too floppy
How thick was the section you first parted to cut? The top section you parted off was shown from the side so the width of the section was visible.
I watched this 7 years ago and few times in between years and many of these how to videos and recommend this to others asking questions on other by videos. The wig you are wearing is the cut I have been trying to find some without the dark roots. I don't think my 80 plus year head is producing black roots, lol.

Can you thin that way with wigs that have prematease?
You are too cute Patti! 😊
Hi Justine!
Yes, you can!
Thank you. Very good video. I learned a lot.
Very helpful, thank you!
If one does not have a pair of thinning shears, can the wig be thinned with standard hair cutting shears?
You can do this but be sure they are really sharp so that they don't snag and pull the lace. We suggest using pinking shears as they do a better job of keeping the lace in good shape.
I hate to show my ignorance but what is thinning shears versus pinking shears?
Pinking shears make a zig-zag cut. They are generally used when cutting the lace.
Thank you sooo much this video helped me a lot

Yes, ma'am! Thinning will work the same on any style.
I love watching your videos 🐱
Thank you Candace! We appreciate you watching our videos!😊
Ohh I wish I had watched this before my sad hack job on my BelleTress. I've got those little hairs you speak of at the crown. Thanks for the super informative video though. I always love learning from you! 🤗
Wooow thank you so much 😍😍 this was so useful!!😘😘
I am learning so much about wigs from you. You make everything look so easy. It makes me unafraid to try this. Thanks so much.
What color is the piece on the mannequin you are thinning?
