First, you will need a domed hat and a mannequin head. Make sure the dome cap is centered, then secure it in place using the two T-pins at the nape of the wig cap to mimic the nape of your hair.

To start making the base of your wig, you will need your front or closure. Center it on the mannequin’s head above the dome cover and start pinning it making sure the front of the zipper/front is 1/4″ in front of the dome cover.

Marking and preparation of weft yarns

Hold the front/closure up and out of the way for now so you can start marking the jumper wires. Trace the outline of the front/closure on the domed cap, then draw the base on which to place the weft.

Keep in mind the number of bundles you use when doing this. Fewer beams require less wires, more beams means more wires getting closer together as the dome rises. Whether you use a closure or a front, you need to make sure the lines curve around the crown until you reach the outline.

Adding the Wefts

It’s time to start sewing!

Two things are essential when sewing weft threads. As you pass through the dome cap, around the weft track, and through the needle, pull the needle through the loop on the left to keep the weft alive, then thread it through the loop again to get more yarn. create. Safe sewing pattern.
