Step 1: Prepare Your Wig
For glueless wigs, you can cut the wig on a mannequin or on top of your head. Be careful to not cut your natural hair. Make sure the wig is flat to avoid any distortion.
Step 2: Cut the Lace
Now it’s time to cut the lace. Use a pair of scissors – ideally a jagged edge scissors and cut along the hairline, leaving approximately 1/8 of an inch of lace. Be careful not to cut the hair. If you’re new to this, you can cut little by little until you have the desired length.
Step 3: Style Your Wig
Once the lace is cut, you can style your wig. You can comb, braid, or tie it up depending on your preference. If you want a part, create one by using a wide-tooth comb or a rat-tail comb to part the hair. If you want a natural-looking hairline, pluck the hairs around the hairline slightly. But be gentle and don’t overdo it.
Step 4: Apply the Wig
The last step is to apply the wig. Put the wig on your head, and adjust the wig until it fits comfortably. Use wig clips or tape to secure it in place. If desired, you can apply some wig glue along the hairline to make it more secure.
