Just noticed this video. I thought I had watched them all. Great demo. There is another needle just in case you have not discovered it yet, it's called a "Skin Needle". The neck of the needle is not as long as the german needle, however you can adjust it in the holder to give length. Pray that helps. Oh, please be very careful with Skin Needles they are VERY SHARP!!! Ask me how I know😕. The point of the needle is sharp allowing it to penetrate the silk or skin material.
oooooh I love watching you and listening to you. You make my day. I have just become interested in wig making but I taught myself to sew . I've been like you with the frustration and took those scissors and cut the garment up. I love the way you talk it through. Thanks for your time and talent.
I love this video!! You are the only one who actually shows how to do this.. I have been trying to learn this method and no one knows anything... I found needles that might make this a bit easier.. I'm am trying to figure out how to do this on a full silk cap if you could think of a way please let me know.. Thanks
MissTropical190 Basically the material I used was wrong because it is a fabic, the oil skin substitute is more of a monofilament so the needle doesn't catch so easily on the mesh. Still a special needle might be needed because this has a big problem keeping the hair strands or not snapping the hair strands!
Super Wig Maker you did a outstanding job!! email me ill show you the different needles and the method I've been learning and maybe you make a video about it misstropical@me.com
Hahaha, it always is a pleasure for me to share my knowledge on these issues :D I did this cause I also wanted to show people that I am not perfect on the wigs.
I'm laughing soo hard, I pressed send TWIIICE! HAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAHHH 😂 😂 😂 LMAOOOOOO! I thought I'd seen every funny video possible! Then thiss!! You are so hilarious & honest & you have that raw comedic sense about you that I find so intriguing! I'm simply beside myself in laughter! Ik you were truly frustrated, however, it was soo amusing that I couldn't help but laugh through it all!

LOL I love your videos and this one is absolutely my favorite. I usually get pissed and throw the entire mannequin head across the room a few times before calming down enough to start again :-)

Now, all of my burning questions about making my own silk-top wig have been answered. I guess the prices on ebay ARE worth it after all - only because I wanted to punch my computer screen and use my inhaler as I watched what you had to endure.
Your videos are amazing. i love them. Ive been thinking of making a video making a silk top. ill definately let you know when :) p.s. love your choice of words. i was laughing so hard everyone was looking at me crazy. lol
HahahaaaaAaaaaaahhh 😂 😂 😄 THEN you continued to remark about the Asians how they are forced to keep their heads down at work and get a few fries for the job...OMGOOODNESS!! You are a true comedian & You have me curled up holding my tummy laughing!! You can't write that!! lol!!😂 idk what you look like, but, I imagined your face in frustration singing while chopping up the fabric!! omgooodness that was a great laugh I truly needed! thX =D (so much with my own professionalism lol) **Franchesca *CREATIVE ARTIST HAIRSTYLES & CUTS PROFESSIONAL FOR 23 YEARS
Yeah making silk tops must require a lot of patience and skill, and also real silk top materials,. I lost my temper there :D The sound is bad, I said a "cup of rise" this is what they eat.
Super Wig Maker: It's okay to be real! At BEST! You're honest about your feelings! & I completely respect that in every form of the matter. I lose my temper also, if something isn't going my way. Only, unlike you, I'm not exposed like on UA-cam. Though many friends and family have told me I'd be a hit. It takes diligence & patients. I have both, only the part about speaking on camera to billions of people, without them being there. I'm more a face to face gal. I sure wish I could've seen the ending of your video. I was in stitches! However, on the more serious side. I'm learning do much through your channel & I can only hope, that my small tips here & there (for one) aren't bothering you, & (two) come in handy. I enjoy watching and I tune in daily on my down time. **Franchesca * CREATIVE ARTIST HAIRSTYLES & CUTS PROFESSIONAL FOR 23 YEARS

Maybe the freaking needle is not correct, but how else would the needle be for it, it needs to do the same job in knotting to the german/asian so what else would be different in needle... god knows and he wil know it only cuase I am not making one for sure!
Thanks SWM. Just starting to do hair and looking for methods but probably not this one (sm). Besides there are so many ways to modify the look of lace. Oh yea, thanks for the comedy.
HI Super Wig Maker! You rock! Can I ask you, please, what is the name and weight of the silk Fabric I should purchase for making this french method wig top and where can I purchase it?
HAHAAAAAA!!! Oh my god, I laughed, I cried... Wow, thanks for the video, but I can't see me ever trying that either! However, I still LOVE those needles! I just ordered more from a supplier in Germany! But yeah, the lace top looks like WAY to much frustration! You're amazing though, keep up the great work! :)
They need to make the material better though, you hear a sizzling sound when you pull the strands, the surface of the needles is not polished and it gets rusty over the time!
I'm disappointed, the hooks arrived today and they are just the standard German hooks, even though the photo on the website was of the curved ones. The quality isn't even as good as the ones I buy from Hugo Royer. :(
Dave Smith :/ so they used stock photos for the needs. Maybe they don't really have a different kind of them they are just from different factories (cause they are not manufacturers) so one factory makes german needles curved, another makes them bended!
Dave Smith Did you try HisandHer? that's the only place I buy German needles from. Theirs is different, not as angled or bended at the head as everyone else, makes a difference in speed, I think when it is curved. I've yet to find a vendor who sells the same type of German Needle as HisandHer which is more curved. I like them best.
mamborena Thanks so much! I saw them on the His & Her website, but I'm in Canada and the minimum shipping charge is $55! I only want a few needles so that seems crazy. However, I will email them and ask if it is possible to just mail them to me instead. I'm really happy to knot that they are the curved ones. I really love those needles too! Thanks again! :)
Thanks for that! You explained the technique perfectly, but I wont be doing that...wayyyyy too time consuming. One thing I found as a beginner, when I bought the german lace the holes were so small I couldnt see to vent the hair. Am I getting the wrong type of lace?
Yes you should be able to see the holes, the lace should be like tulle only it is different material and differently woven and doesn't stretch or unravel. And yeah the french method either needs a special tool for this (thus I did it wrong) or it is hell-a-difficult! So if I ever had to go through the torture of the silk top I would do it the English way.
not only did i buy german lace from His and Hers, I bought a pre-made cap and it is VERYYYY difficult to see the holes...they do look like the "honeycomb" like in tulle but they are so small I could barely get my needle through it to vent. Also, as a beginner, my needles seem to get "snagged" on the lace when I go to pull the hair through the loop...bummer...what the heck am i doing wrong?
Carolyn Best Maybe your lace as you said is too dense, try getting a less dense lace with more obvious holes. Watch my newest video for supplies it is eye-opening Lace, kinds and where to buy it!
thats so tedious congrats to you im not advanced at all im just beginning i understand your frustration your awesome ive also subscribed to your channel
I think it's the inferior quality of the materials used for demonstration purposes. I hate working with synthetics! How ever your technique looks so professional
Yes the silk material is different in wig making, this is just fabric this is why the needle got stuck so often. I just wanted to show the technique but I failed due to wrong materials.
I meant to say though that you now how you took an actual silk top apart to see how it was made and the returns were under the silk like the knots would you just grab the good hair and leave the return before pulling it through the fabric? This seems far too much work for a wig I mean it is hard enough as it is without that crap isnt it:)
+mercedes hughes Girl you woke up memories when I saw a comment on that video. Yes the returns of a silk top are on the in side of the peice thus they are not exposed, much better than having them out, so on top you only have 100% remy tails. And yes that would mean the piece would take 10 years to make unless you have a chinese worker and tell him "do this in 1~2 days or you are fired" he will find a way to make it!
mercedes hughes Hey, no offense to the Chinese people, but you know in China people have to work like robots in order to keep a job. They are doing one thing repeatedly and they master it to the point we say it is "asian level"
Thank you honey, most of my videos start off as crazy and then I keep only the pieces I need and remove the original "crazy" rumbling I usually do and make a voice over! I just felt that this one worth showing raw!
This video was really funny and I don't know how you didn't lose it before the end haha!.. When I'm making something and it's not happening for me, I scream and shout at inanimate objects and generally start losing the will to live.. My kids (grown-up) say that I'm a psychopath and should be locked up but f*ck them what do they know!! LoL .. Keep making your super videos young man cause you are the best ;) xxx
When you make a silk top you really don't need too big returns cause you can actually leave the returns on the inside of the wig thus you won't even have short returns, this means you must ventilate double the hair you would normally do cause the returns won't be there to fill the area. In this case even 20 inch hair would be more than enough to have a 18 inch closure, 2 inches of returns, that will be left on the inside (not pulled through the silk on the top of the unit). If you want to pull everything on the upper side, so you will have both returns and tails of the hair, you can have 22 inches or whatever you want. It is the same to non silk top ventilation, you choose how long you want your returns to be. I usually leave my returns (in non silk tops) from 2 to 4 inches feathered so they don't form a strict line, I talked about this on my video about the human hair returns, how to make them more natural.
The problems you had, pulling the hair through both materials was probably the material you were working with. There is another method called "Hair Punching" which is rapid; but I don't know how I just stumbled on it on the internet.
Hair punching is another thing, you don't knot the hair, you punch the loop into a base material (like a PU fake skin) and then beneath the material (which is hard) you somehow glue the little loops so they will never pull back on the normal side and shed hair with brushing. It is the fastest method to do fake skin tops and they usually do this with the cheap cosplay skintop wigs.
Linda sent me a gift wig cap that all of a sudden fit my head like a glove only the lace in the front didn't match my skin so I replaced it with thinner one. I would recommend you the amazinghairstore lace it is very good for all uses, strong and undetectable enough. I made all my wigs using the Asian needle, I can ventilate with the German but not as fast! My previous wigs that were made with tulle etc, I used latch hooks, crochet hooks etc! Fleshtone lace (for white people) www.amazinghairstore.com/servlet/the-31/front-lace-wigs-clips/Detail Light Brown (for darker people and mixed ones) www.amazinghairstore.com/servlet/the-29/front-lace-wigs-clips/Detail Dark Brown Colour, for really dark skinned people www.amazinghairstore.com/servlet/the-28/front-lace-wigs-clips/Detail And monofilament. I have a video that shows how to ventilate on that and what it is, kinda too difficult for beginners! www.amazinghairstore.com/servlet/the-30/Monofilament-Toupee-Lace-to/Detail ~~~~~~~~~~ for needles you can get these (they are asian), and only if you have a holder already: www.amazinghairstore.com/servlet/the-47/front-lace-wigs-clips/Detail If you don't get some package with many things here: www.amazinghairstore.com/servlet/the-27/front-lace-wigs-clips/Detail
Carolyn Best You can see my video for supplis dear friend, I hope I helped. This was a very frequent question so I think many people will benefit, I plan to make more videos about materials when I get my hands on more of them!Lace, kinds and where to buy it!
+Erika Young Hahahah well this cloth is not meant for a silk top obviously, so this is why it kinda failed miserably, but the needle might have to be a specific one otherwise I do not know what I am doing wrong.
Quero muito assistir a esse vídeo! Estou querendo muito saber como se faz realmente! Se virem esse comentário por favor me ajudem a achar um vídeo que ensine essa técnica.
I've just become another ardent fan of yours. Your demos are so informative and entertaining! I ended up on your channel because I'm losing my hair and don't have the funds to buy a custom-made wig (I have a weird head shape, funny but true). So I'm looking for a great DIY method that gives as close to real life results as possible. I don't mind if a lot of work is involved. The silk option looks very promising to me imitating the human scalp so well. Why do you think it's not worth doing the work? What other type of wig is also true to life but with less work (and frustration) involved?
Well I canot do silk tops and I am the super wig maker, let that sink for a while. I do not understand how people could have the patience and time to do it and price it so cheaply. I can only make lace pieces and the single strand single knot with bleached knots is pretty ok in my opinion.
To be honest with you I don't even know cause I couldn't find any on hugo royer or banbury and postiche! So literally I don't know where they sell those materials.
Super Wig Maker Hey video was great!! i feel your frustration. I met a lady who does repairs for jewish wigs with silk tops that have bald spots she also says its not worth it. She does it without the two layers opened so she just pulls them from wherever they are underneath
Super Wig Maker I have just bought a few different kinds of laces. What does a silk top lace look like can I send you a pic? I mean i have a silk top but because ive only seen it on a wig and not as the material by itself I am not too sure if it is the right one.
jenshairstudio Sorry youtube didn't notify me on that comment weird-ass youtube notifications. I am sending you an e-mail for the picture of that silk top.
Just noticed this video. I thought I had watched them all. Great demo. There is another needle just in case you have not discovered it yet, it's called a "Skin Needle". The neck of the needle is not as long as the german needle, however you can adjust it in the holder to give length. Pray that helps. Oh, please be very careful with Skin Needles they are VERY SHARP!!! Ask me how I know😕. The point of the needle is sharp allowing it to penetrate the silk or skin material.
thank you for sharing... it's still amazing almost 4 years later!!!!
I fall over laughing every time he says "Fuck dat shit!"🤣🤣 I love him to bits!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
oooooh I love watching you and listening to you. You make my day. I have just become interested in wig making but I taught myself to sew . I've been like you with the frustration and took those scissors and cut the garment up. I love the way you talk it through. Thanks for your time and talent.

***** Yes and it doesn't hurt anyone because it is a fake head :D
LOL You are so right! Have a great weekend my friend :-)
god bless you. been there done that, and way too labor intensive, but it was great of you to show others how it is done, should they be daring to try.
I actually made everyone here scared of it :D
thanks, i will order these supplies from them!
Ha! That was funny :) Thanks for sharing it...
oh whao!. That looks really hard. Thanks for showing
Yep too much time for no reason
It turned out pretty good for an experiment.

Thank you so much for explaining that to me.
Now, all of my burning questions about making my own silk-top wig have been answered. I guess the prices on ebay ARE worth it after all - only because I wanted to punch my computer screen and use my inhaler as I watched what you had to endure.
The English method is definitely more secure if not "easier" as well.
Still not worth the labor for this thing!
Your videos are amazing. i love them.

thats so tedious congrats to you im not advanced at all im just beginning i understand your frustration your awesome ive also subscribed to your channel
So what is the material really made of ?
Porque dobrar o cabelo ao meio? Isso deixo o fio menor no comprimento não é?
***** I know right, this is very time consuming and you have to master it to be able to do that effectively!

Hey, no offense to the Chinese people, but you know in China people have to work like robots in order to keep a job.
They are doing one thing repeatedly and they master it to the point we say it is "asian level"
I know it's crazy eh, apparently they take great pride in their jobs no matter how menial other people from different continents view it as.
This was funny. take care of yourself. thank you
Thank you honey, most of my videos start off as crazy and then I keep only the pieces I need and remove the original "crazy" rumbling I usually do and make a voice over!
I just felt that this one worth showing raw!
Don't change, this is a good one.

I talk to myself and my tools or hair that doesn't work properly, I think I count as a psychopath too :D
Fuck that shit😂😂😂😂
When doing the English method is it best to use like 24 inch hair if you want your wig to be about 18 inches? Or is that not necessary?
When you make a silk top you really don't need too big returns cause you can actually leave the returns on the inside of the wig thus you won't even have short returns, this means you must ventilate double the hair you would normally do cause the returns won't be there to fill the area.

I usually leave my returns (in non silk tops) from 2 to 4 inches feathered so they don't form a strict line, I talked about this on my video about the human hair returns, how to make them more natural.
cool, what is the reason for a silk top anyway? i did see some straight needles on ebay, looked like tooth picks. weird. i loved this video! tee hee.
Très intéressant 👏👏👏👏
The problems you had, pulling the hair through both materials was probably the material you were working with. There is another method called "Hair Punching" which is rapid; but I don't know how I just stumbled on it on the internet.

It is the fastest method to do fake skin tops and they usually do this with the cheap cosplay skintop wigs.
There's got to be a way like this. I'll be working on it. Have a good one.
Pat Love
They also do that for better wigs, don't get me wrong, but you need better base to work on.
You're right. The base is my biggest hurtle.
Super Wig Maker Do you know what kind of base is used?
where did you buy your lace when you were a beginner? And I dont mean tulle...I mean when you did your first unit? And what needle did you use?
Linda sent me a gift wig cap that all of a sudden fit my head like a glove only the lace in the front didn't match my skin so I replaced it with thinner one.
I would recommend you the amazinghairstore lace it is very good for all uses, strong and undetectable enough.
I made all my wigs using the Asian needle, I can ventilate with the German but not as fast!
My previous wigs that were made with tulle etc, I used latch hooks, crochet hooks etc!
Fleshtone lace (for white people)

Dark Brown Colour, for really dark skinned people

And monofilament. I have a video that shows how to ventilate on that and what it is, kinda too difficult for beginners!

Carolyn Best You can see my video for supplis dear friend, I hope I helped. This was a very frequent question so I think many people will benefit, I plan to make more videos about materials when I get my hands on more of them!Lace, kinds and where to buy it!
"fuck that shit" lol exactly my thoughts I'm still trying to figure out what exactly you do to ventilate let alone use a cloth when you do it
+Erika Young Hahahah well this cloth is not meant for a silk top obviously, so this is why it kinda failed miserably, but the needle might have to be a specific one otherwise I do not know what I am doing wrong.
I am laughing so hard!!!!!
Hi. There is a special needle for it
so it would be easier for people who knot rugs by hand because its similar but obviously finer strands.
where do I get the correct materials to make a silk top
That is a question I would love to know too :D
Check out makeup-store.com watch the video. The needles you need are the crown punch needles. Hope this is useful.
thanks honey

Lol..... love this video....
I've just become another ardent fan of yours. Your demos are so informative and entertaining! I ended up on your channel because I'm losing my hair and don't have the funds to buy a custom-made wig (I have a weird head shape, funny but true). So I'm looking for a great DIY method that gives as close to real life results as possible. I don't mind if a lot of work is involved. The silk option looks very promising to me imitating the human scalp so well. Why do you think it's not worth doing the work? What other type of wig is also true to life but with less work (and frustration) involved?
Well I canot do silk tops and I am the super wig maker, let that sink for a while. I do not understand how people could have the patience and time to do it and price it so cheaply.
I can only make lace pieces and the single strand single knot with bleached knots is pretty ok in my opinion.
This is pure torture.....
EbonyHairBeauty it is!
Can you Traduc in French thanks
Could you give me a link where I can get real silk material?
Thank you so much~!!
To be honest with you I don't even know cause I couldn't find any on hugo royer or banbury and postiche!
So literally I don't know where they sell those materials.

Hey video was great!! i feel your frustration. I met a lady who does repairs for jewish wigs with silk tops that have bald spots she also says its not worth it. She does it without the two layers opened so she just pulls them from wherever they are underneath

I have just bought a few different kinds of laces. What does a silk top lace look like can I send you a pic? I mean i have a silk top but because ive only seen it on a wig and not as the material by itself I am not too sure if it is the right one.
