Wearing a costume wig correctly involves prepping your hair, securing it with a wig cap, and then carefully positioning the wig.
Here's a breakdown of how to wear a costume wig effectively:
-
Prepare Your Hair:
- If you have long hair, the video suggests a more secure method is to braid your hair into a single braid. This helps distribute the hair evenly and prevents bulky spots under the wig.
- For shorter hair, ensure it is as flat as possible against your head.
-
Use a Wig Cap:
- Place the wig cap over your prepared hair. This creates a smooth surface for the wig to sit on and helps keep your natural hair in place.
-
Position the Wig:
- Carefully slide the wig onto your head, starting at the hairline.
- Adjust the wig until it sits comfortably and securely.
- Ensure the wig's hairline aligns with your natural hairline for a more natural look.
