Step 1
Place your wig on your styrofoam head and make sure she’s nice and secure with your T-Pins.
Step 2
Part the hair on your wig in two sections and take your fave tweezers and start to pluck the hairline towards you in order to get a more natural look.
Step 3
Take your bleach, developer, mixing bowl and mixing brush, and begin stirring the mixture until it reaches a pasty texture that isn’t too loose (so it won’t bleed onto the hair).
Step 4
Turn your wig inside out and pin it down to your foam head and begin by bleaching the knots along the hairline. Put the shower cap on top and leave the bleach to lighten for 15 min. Then, wash out bleach with a neutralizing shampoo.
Step 5
Secure your wig onto your styrofoam head with your t pins
Step 6
Use a dime sized amount of heat protectant and disperse it throughout the hair.
Step 7
Separate the hair into different sections with your comb, and clip the excess hair out of your way using your alligator clips. Then take your wand curler and begin to curl different sections of the hair to your liking.
Step 8
Seal the hair with your favorite alcohol free hair spray.
Step 9
Cut the lace along the hairline and ears.
Step 10
Play around with the parting, create a fun hairstyle or keep it down for a more sophisticated and trendy look. Don’t forget the baby hairs!

I really wish that the top view of the wigs were available as were photographs of all of the colours of each wig. The colour patterns are radically different wig to wig and you don’t know whether or not there is a natural looking parting space or root or if it is an awkward no scalp skin cap button deal (especially wigs with bangs)…until you order it… or it is popular enough that someone else has done a review of the wig.
