Oh wow, I have just decided to start making wigs as a business. I have always handsewn for myself and I made one for a work colleague after much persuasion. I have just decided to really practice and do it on a sewing machine as it will be stronger and quicker. I can't believe I already knew all the tips except the first one about the block and the pins, this is because I have used a sewing machine since I was 10. I have always enjoyed sewing small pieces and customising my clothes, so all the sewing tips were almost natural to me. I'm excited because I thought I was in over my head trying to do this but the sewing experience is definitely going to help me. 😁😁 I always talk myself out of doing things because I lack confidence but this video was a great help.
Thanks for taking the time to share your journey. I can really relate to your experience. I also never felt confident starting a wig business. 10 years on, I’m glad I pushed through the fear. ❤️ Wishing you lots of success!
Same for me!
I think there's one more extremely important thing for noobs to be aware of and that's depending on the type of sewing machine you have, it may or may not require a certain size bobbin... Cause not all bobbins are created equal! I have a basic brother machine and the bobbin winder broke due to moving so i bought prewound bobbins well i thought my machine was broken cause it would but knot up all crazy underneath, it was unbelievably frustrating cause i couldn't afford a new machine and i don't care for hand sewing anymore at all but come to find out the prewound singer bobbins from Joanns work perfect while anything from Walmart DOES NOT. Lol. Hard lesson learned.
Thanks for this wonderful tutorial and please when are you having your class.
I really appreciate this wonderful tutorial ❤

Yes that first tip is the foundations for a wig to fit corecttly! Now to watch this video! Grace to u & happy new year! Where are u located? gh
Such kind words! Glad you found my channel too! Thank you. I’m in Atlanta Georgia
I found out my closures tangle up after sewing a wig on a machine, but when I do a hand sewn wig, it doesn’t happen
I just watched this other video & as far as sewing the wefts onto the cap once they’ve been doubled , I wanna know what if what she did was correct … do you sew through just the top weft or through both wefts . It looked like she just sew through the top weft only with a zig zag stitch
Yes! Sewing through the top weft with a zig zag stitch will give you a very flat finish! When you sew through both, you have EXTRA security but you’ll have a “lip” along your wefts so it won’t be flat, flat. I hope that makes sense.
Thank you so much for the tip. I learned a lot
I'm so glad!
Thank you so much I love making wish mistake no 1 best tips for me❤💯God bless you
So sorry I missed your comment! Thank you and God bless you also! ❤️
Gosh God bless you I’m just in minute 4:47 and already commenting here because I learn something about my wig Canva lol 😅 ..
A quick question how can I avoid that my thread keep breaking?
Awww! Glad to hear! 💕
Tks for sharing this with us
You’re welcome!!🙂
You are so RIGHT
She was saying it’s more flat that way which makes sense but would both wefts still be secure by sewing just the top one as oppose to doing both ?
Hey! Yes. It will still be secure as long as you doubled your wefts correctly. ie they are both firmly attached to each other. Otherwise, one weft could start to droop . Great question! 🤗
Thank you for replying so fast !! I commented the video also if you didn’t know what I meant 😭
I’m a beginner wig maker and did not know the type of block made a difference.
Thank you for the tip.

Same here
Same here
A is the answer
1st tip off the bat lol lotterally jist bought the gex which I wanted to get from the get go but the reviews about it ellong bad put me off so off I went bought 2 of the "bad ones" and guess what.....it don't fit lol when I got the gex! Game changer I can lay a 5x5 with easeeeeeee on it . Wish I found your vid 1st though would have saved me two block heads. I'll use them to tinting and dying I think .
Yes! You can use them for dyeing. Great idea!
Why after I making my wig its bumping my wig its not flat what do I do wrong
Keep it flat. We cover that extensively inside of the Wigclass. You can either attend an in person class or you can sign up to an online class. Link is in the bio. Thank you
Can the wrong size needle cause you to get Birds nest under the cap when sewing ?
Yes. If the needle is too small for the thread you're using, it can cause the thread to drag, not placing it correctly, leading to bunching.
Your hair is gorgeous. I like it❤🎉
Thank you🩷
I have to use the brother's machine, I purchased the singer's it's to fast for me
The Singer Tradition is slower than the Heavy Duty. Also, you can eventually use the Heavy Duty when you become an expert! Trust me, the Brother will seem too slow for you in no time!😊
Wow awesome noted 👍
That happened to me
You are awesome. I’m a newby and just don’t know where to begin. The wigs I have bought never fit smoothly and bulges up at ear tabs or above it. Any suggestions keeping it down so excess cap isn’t sticking up?
If it’s too big then you may need to reduce the wig cap. I have a video here. It’s called “how to reduce a wig cap” good luck!
Please i don't get a flat stitch when I sew my wig...I need help
Yea I loved that tip. This is mostly what is available in Nigeria. How do I get the recommended?
Hi. Thanks for watching. Do you mean recommended supply list? Amazon is the main place I recommend
Thank you
The tread keep breaking.....whats the tension setting when stitching the weft?
3.5-4 setting
Very impressive ❤
My gosh I've learnt so much tnku
I'm so glad!
A is good
Thank you
Do you have any tips for the brothers sewing machine?
Right now, I’m exclusively using the Singer sewing machine
A is best
Thx so so much
You're welcome!
Debra Herron-clark

Pls I have a question
While doubling a weft on a sewing machine, is it advisable to flip over or cut off. Thanks
I cut my wefts🙏🏾
I love d way you teach
AWW! Thank you so much! 🫶🏾

Nothing I have seen, and I have searched multiple times! Only hand ventilation for the closures and frontals and hair injection machine for the PU skin wigs

Hello
Hey!
💝
A migraine headache
a
❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉
Kinda of knew
I have a couple questions when I’m pulling my thread to get a little more length to cut it’s really hard and my needle bends a little.. what could be wrong? Also my needle breaks half way through sewing double weft tracks on cap smh.
Hey! I’m soooooo sorry I missed your comment 😢. It’s probably your tension. It’s bot allowing your thread to glide through the tension disc. Use a denim/jeans needle from Amazon/Quilting store/Any department store.
Check that the needle isn’t hitting the metal plate as it comes down. I’ll try and do a video on this. Good luck!
Aha.. wrong canvas block
Thanks a lot
You’re welcome!
