In this excerpt from his "Introduction to #HairKnotting" course, master Hollywood hair artist Michael Ornelaz (Life of Pi, Avatar, The Bourne Legacy) shows you how to knot hair in wig lace, one of the key hair ventilation techniques, essential for building realistic lace hairpieces of all kinds, including mustaches, beards, wigs, and even fursuits.
Calling upon lessons learned, practiced, and perfected during his three-decade career as a top "finisher" in the entertainment industry, Ornelaz breaks hair knotting down into a few basic and clear steps. From hair moisturizing and creating a "turnaround" loop, all the way to tying your first knot, you'll learn how to begin your career as a hair artist with the right foundation.
Along the way, Ornelaz stresses the importance of patience and committing to practicing these basic yet critical skills. Once mastered, you will be able to move on to more advanced techniques for adding density, direction, and lifelike flow to your hairpieces for theater, television, and film.
