How To Pin a Lace Wig

Lace wigs are very fragile and very expensive so you have to be very gentile with them. You never put a wig on someone's head and then style them - you style them on your block and when the wig is ready you put it on their head. When pinning it on the block always thing about where the centre of the head is, the hairline and ears.

To pin the wig down you will need a galloon band and some pins. Spray some water on the galloon (to smooth the edges of the lace) and place it right at the edge of the lace. Find the middle of the lace and start pinning. Use a lot of pins so the wig doesn't come off when you're brushing it. Make sure the you hold the lace straight otherwise the wig won't be pinned properly. Keep the hair out of your way. Take the galloon right up to the top of the ear and pin all the way up.

When you fisnish pinning the front you will need a couple of big T pins to pin the wig at the nape of the neck. Put one in each corner, then one between that pin and the ear, and one right up in the middle of the head. Pin them at a slight angle, that way they won't come out when you brush the hair.
