    I wouldnt recommend cutting. I did this before and the hair shed badly. Its better to fold it down and sew it flat to preserve the hair

    • @LilisTouch
      @LilisTouch  4 роки тому +20

      Thanks for commenting but I have not had any issues with my unit as of yet but if that happens I would recommend using a sewing machine to stitch it instead of hand stitching.

    Thanks for sharing! This is a great idea!
    Heres a tip: To avoid having to stitch back the tracks/wefts that were hanging after you flipped the wig back to the correct side, be mindful about how you stitch from the inside during the process. More particularly, as you stitch up the middle, make sure you are simultaneously aligning/connecting the horizontal wefts back together from the inside. This way you are knocking out two birds with one stone.

    Thanks for your video. I will be trying this method and hopefully I will not destroy my wig for my 50th birthday. Decades ago my instructor showed me how to pinch or cuff wig once on my head, then remove the wefts in that pinch or cuff. Your method is quicker. I hope to return with results by June 5th.

Mine also has the adjustable straps. Other videos either have you just fold and sew or if it doesnt have the straps, just cut off the back area. I only paid $130 for the wig but Im just getting into wigs and these are the mistakes I dont want to make with a $500 custom wig lmaooooo
