 How to Wear a Lace-Front Wig
a Zoom workshop
Saturday, October 10
11 AM - 1 PM PT
Want to learn how to wear a lace-front wig? What goes on first? The wig or the dress? Dean explains the difference between hard-front and lace-front wigs, how to prep your hair using a wig cap, and how to choose the right one for your activity level (i.e., dancing or cocktails?).
Some of the important things covered will include wig preparation: fitting, sizing, styling, applying and attaching, pinning, gluing or sewing, and other tips for styling a wig, cutting the lace, and gluing, plus other final touches.
Dean will also include a discussion of size, balance, and the weight of the wig. Is this a Marie Antoinette or Victorian London, or even possibly a sea pirate with a ship in the hair!
