- Hi guys! In this tutorial I'm showing you how I made the yarn wig that I used in my recent Christmas elf Monter High repaint video ^^ • Cute Christmas Elf Dol...
This method can also be used for other types of doll hair, if you don't want to use yarn. I used a Draculaura doll in this video, you can use whatever doll you want.
I've been making wigs for my handsculpted dolls like this for years, but very recently saw someone on youtube use yarn to make the actual lines of hair and liked the idea. I don't know who originally came up with the concept, but I first saw this channel / @mozekyto use yarn for wigging :)
Materials for wig cap;
Kitchen film
Stretchy fabric
Glue
Rubber band
Materials for wig;
100% acrylic yarn (or any doll hair of your choice)
Comb
Glue
Scissors
Marker
Kitchen film
Thank you so much for watching, I hope you enjoyed this video ^^

I have to say this is the first time I've found a yarn wig cap tutorial that works! I actually used tule ribbon for my material, and it worked perfectly! My Draculaura had had horrible gluey hair, so she was really happy getting new hair. Needless to say, there were a lot of pencils and straightened yarn in my room lol. Now her name is Pinky since she has no face and I need to wait until spring/summer before I can spray my sealant on her.For the first time, the bangs naturally didn't bounce up, and the wig cap was perfect because she ended up with a hole down her part because of the glue. Since I have a bright yellow design a monster that didn't really come with a wig, now I can remove the horrible face I painted on her and make Joy from Inside Out! I certainly have enough blue wool to do it, and a little tacky glue should help me style it!
Thank you so much for helping Pinky come to be! I have another Creepyteria Draculaura who could use the same treatment. But since it took like two hours to get the bloody head off, any help is appreciated! I have some pieces of cheap wig hair from Halloween I might use instead. Either way, Pinky loves her hair!
a tip for everyone trying this, use a cat brush with iron tips! it brushes it out really quickly!
this is one of the clearest videos I have seen on making a wig! This was most helpful Thank you. I always look forward to your videos. I learn alot from you.
if anyone is wondering, mod podge does not work well for this
Huh. When I brush out my acrylic yarn it like... all comes out. It doesnt just shed a little. I lose most of it all :/
Same problem :/ I gave up bc of that
Bassant yeah me too. I only use the yarn for curly hair, like just untwist them and voila, curls.
@@MsPoliteRants that's genius
same problem, kind of annoying!
try different type of yarn... I have the same problem but I remember I once tried it with something different and did hair extensions like 20cm long...
Wow! I never tought that it can be this easy!
Yarn plus the flat iron what an awesome idea ! It looks so great!
Thank you for explaining so clearly and simply all of the steps to follow. The result is super - I hope to get the same.
oh my god that hair camE oUT beAUtifUL
You are absolutely incredible at making dolls! I wish I had your talent😭
If you want the hair to look more natural especially the bangs, dont cut it straight across with the scissors. Instead hold the scissors so they're vertical in front of the face with the pointed end towards the forehead. Cut small sections of the bangs at a time while still holding the scissors in that vertical position. This helps you to keep from making them crooked and gives it a more natural look since hair isn't normally all one length and straight. It's also a much more forgiving way to cut bangs as well as the rest of the hair. This is how you cut bangs on an actual person.
Thank you for this great tutorial it helped a lot!
And your voice is so calming I love it!
Thank you this is very helpful, I just bought some doll making materials at Walmart, mostly for doll hair and painting. This is going to be fun!
The best doll maker person ever!!!!!! :D
Your voice is so relaxing! The wig is beautiful! I love watching you making dolls' hair! 👱♀️👱♀️👱♀️
I know you said that's basic but it's bloody brilliant!!!!
Can I dye yarn with hair dye? Should I do it before brushing? Anyway, cool tutorial. I'm about to make a doll and I want it to look like my mom and give it to her for a Christmas gift.I'm about to loose all my money for this and making hair of yarn is the cheapness way. (I'm like 15. I don't have a work, u know) She wants me to paint her a portrait, but I want to suprise her. If the yarn doesn't work, I can always sculpt hair but I saw dolls which are sculpt from polymer clay but have a normal, "real" hair. I like the results better. Wish me luck.
It's been 2yrs... what happened with your mom doll? I hope she likes it!
@@63o479 The sculpture didn't turned out super realistic. If I have to be honest, it was a total failure, but we shared a good laugh about it. She gave me an "A" for effort xd. Thanks for bringing me back the good memories ^^. I end up giving her an extra painting of betta fish or something similar, I don't remember exactly.
Absolutely wonderful, working on making one right now for my little sister's doll! Here's hoping it turns out well!
Rachel P How about if I did it but left it fluffly and used it as fur but on a fursuit head?
Ooh, that would be cool! Yeah, I think that would work.
roses are red,
lavenders are blue,
i have a yarn,
but i have no doll...
yes
me toi
You could just make a wig and save it for when you have a doll.
totally awesome!! my cap moves around a lot so i like to put a straight pin on the top to stabilizes it. love your work!!
This video is exactly what I needed, thank you very much! You explain and show everything so good! 💜👍
Best wig tutorial I have seen.
This is my second time making a wig and your tutorial helped alot thx ❤💚💜💙💛
@Everything TTM check mozekyto's channel. She has videos on making wigs with parts, ponytails, even cat ears.
This is awesome, is a really simple and nice tutorial!
a curling iron works as well for those who dont have a flat iron
love this now I have another way to do hair for when I make my clothespin dolls hehe
this worked really well for me! thanks for the tutorial!
Here is a great tip for taking the hair plugs out easier... but be SUPER careful, so you don't get hurt ;)
1. When you have unplugged the head: soak the head in a cup of boiling water in about 3-5 minutes
2. Take the head out of the water, empty it for water and then dry... be careful with the hot water!
3. Then you can take your pliers and pull out the hair ;)
With this method you loosen up the glue and you can squish the head easier ^_^
Wow, this is awesome! It is so helpful, because I'm going to use this way for my Luna Lovegood doll!
the doll with golden eyes is so beautiful
I am in the process of refurbishing a my size barbie and your video is very helpful, thanks.
Where did you find stretchy fabric?and what kind of glue did you use?
So sweet!! Love her
Hi, thanks for this video to making wig, good idear!! Its method's great you are!!😊😊😊
That was really helpful.
This vid was very helpful thank you!
Imma use this information into my cosplay >:) muahahahahaa
Sugar Banda bruh same 😂
How are you going to use it?
💖The doll is cute💖
The first one🌈
That is absolutely Amazing! And beautiful, real looking hair! =)
just love it😍😘
So cool!!
i looooove it!
Should I be able to use Modpodge/Elmers or to I have to use something like Tacky glue?
Ein Moon I would use elmers glue all, I think modpodge might be too thick for the wig cap. But it might be good for the wefts
Beautiful work :D
This looks so easy! Thx!
Vanessa Wood it aint....
It looks pretty realistic.
I’ll try it
your videos are amazing!!!
+blanca b Thanks!!
Wow amazing
Ahhh thanks it's really help
I've watched many videos similar to this and I've noticed that most don't talk about the placement of the wefts. Sometimes they place them near the weft they had just put down and other times they put it to where there's a significant space between them. If you could make a video about this or even just mention it in one I'd really appreciate it.
OMG I love her nails!😃😃😃😃😃😃
PLEASE make a cancer themed doll. I know there are a LOT of kids, and adults, out there who have cancer. And I also think that you would make it look super cute and kawaii!
Also, I think it would make the kids that do have cancer, and watch that video, it'll make their day!
+Harley Quinn That's pretty insensitive to people that have cancer in my opinion, also how do you imagine that doll looking?
Can you please make a wig where you can actually put it over the dolls hair.
Good idea !!!
It is ok to use a regular glue??
What kind of glue do you use? i can't stop of stain my wigs with glue 😣
Try using tacky glue
mod podge works very well
She uses Pattex Original Wood Glue to glue the hair into strips and Aleene's Tacky Glue to glue the strips of hair to the wig cap.
Great job.
How long do you wait for drying in between each section of hair you add?
Great... I am trying to get this so I know exactly what I am doing without having to refer back to the video all the time I have got the wig cap bit ...now for applying the wefts... hopefully in a natural looking way! I am going to use kanekolon? The acrylic hair people use for braids? As I have a lot of it in lots of colours. This looks straightforward. I really like the white!
Foxiepaws ACAnderson )
Thank you. You are fantastic
Thank you i well try to do it 👌🏻
It is very cute
I have regular yarn can I use that
gacha Len you can use regular yarn it dosent really matter
gacha Len thank you for your like
Can fabric stiffener work instead of glue for the wig cap?
Amazing!
thank you that helps a lot :)
Is it possible to put wigs on a doll that already has hair with multiple wig caps. Kinda like human wigs?
Probably but you'll have to mask the hair underneath by making the wig bigger and hair poofy
I feel like this would also work really well for false eyelashes. Anyone tried it?
Who watches these yet never will do these
Grace Frawley I want to do this but I got none of the materials 😂
I made a Starships (Just Dance) inspired 2 tone wig by using Magenta and Blue yarn.
Justin's Custom Doll Surprises same here i use magenta and blue and i mix some dark green it's so amazing now :3
What kind of hair extention for dolls
It's awesome and excellent
this totally works
Did you have much shortening? I used a 40cm length and was left with 10cm, I used a dog comb as I saw in another yarn weft video so I think I'll have a try with a normal comb like you used here, is it always 100% acrylic yarn you should use? Thanks
Sarah Betts try brushing it more softly
Can you curl the yarn hair? I'm making my first doll and i don't know how can i make it. Help please and sorry for my english 💙💙
hold a metal chopstick between the plates of a flat iron until warm, use as mini curling iron
Magic.
I had trouble seeing parts of this as you had put white on white but thank you for the tutorial
would any type of fabric work for the wig cap?
Ik this is an old comment but I'd suggest asking some south asian friends for a spare scarf, our scarves tend to be very large and highly transparent
So cool
it was totally amazing,it was great.I am gonna do it at home.😎😎😘
this was so easy thanks
Do u glue the cap to the head or use it as a regular wig cap.
Use it as a regular cap :)
Can do ever
Thank you
do i need to add the sock thing part?
She has perfect hands... o.O
How durable is this method long term??? Love your videos thanks hun
Clay Creations That's what I'm wondering.. I think you should just sew on the wefts. Gluing it is for decoration
AMAZING
Lovely hair
Can you tell me the name of your yarn
But you can't braid with this hair right?
Anyway the tutorial is really nice
Karthik Muppidi I guess you can
thank you !
perfect
So cute
What material can help mê to maķe a wig?
can i use vynil glue for this?
Very useful, I like how you did the part, I've seen other ways but I like this one the most. Btw are you going to use draculora's clothes, if not can I have them?
She stated in the previous video that she cut the Velcro out of the original clothes that she came with.
I know but there are other things to do with doll clothing
what tipe of glue do you used to put the wool on the head? Silicon?
Thaíssa Pyamu tacky glue I think
@@aphr0d oh, thanks
It is PVA glue. I use PH NEUTRAL PVA glue by "Books by Hand" its a tad bit pricey bit cheaper on Amazon. Or just use any PVA glue!😍
unbelievable😊
I'm glad I watched this because I just took off a draculaura's head. I wish I had thought of keeping the paint on though :P
Does this method work on longer strands though?
Nicole H I would assume it would, just like I'd say it's safe to do this on a human scale if need be for a costume
That is THE most ingenious way I have ever seen anyone make a wig cap. Seriously, thank you so much for sharing this technique! So helpful!
