Hair clip wigs are attached to your natural hair using small clips that are sewn into the wig cap. Here's how you can use them effectively:
Understanding Hair Clip Wigs
Hair clip wigs are designed for easy application and removal, offering a temporary hair transformation. They are typically less expensive and easier to manage than full wigs.
Step-by-Step Application Guide
- Prepare Your Natural Hair:
- Make sure your hair is relatively smooth.
- Consider braiding or looping small sections of your hair across your hairline to provide a more secure base, especially if the wig tends to slip, as mentioned in the YouTube tutorial ![Part of a video titled Tutorial: Wig Clips - YouTube]().
- Position the Wig:
- Place the front of the wig along your natural hairline, ensuring a comfortable fit.
- Clip-in the Wig:
- Open the clips attached to the wig.
- Attach the clips to your natural hair, ensuring they are snug but not too tight. The YouTube video ![Part of a video titled Tutorial: Wig Clips - YouTube]() suggests that two or three clips are often enough.
- Secure the Back (if applicable):
- If your wig has clips at the back, attach them similarly to ensure a secure fit around your head.
- Adjust and Style:
- Check the wig in a mirror and adjust the position and clips if needed.
- Style the wig as desired, blending it with your natural hair if necessary.
Tips for a Secure Fit
- Braid or Loop Hair: As the YouTube video ![Part of a video titled Tutorial: Wig Clips - YouTube]() suggests, braiding or looping small sections of your hair along the hairline can create a more secure base for the clips to attach to if slipping occurs.
- Use Bobby Pins: For extra security, you can use bobby pins along the edges of the wig to keep it in place.
- Choose the Right Size: Ensure you are using the correct size wig for your head to ensure a proper fit.
Removal
To remove a hair clip wig, simply open the clips, then gently pull the wig away from your head.
Key Takeaways
- Hair clip wigs offer a simple way to change your hairstyle without a lot of effort.
- Secure application is essential to prevent slipping and movement.
- Preparation, secure placement of the clips, and proper styling will ensure the wig looks natural.
