How to Wear a Wig Cap with Very Thick and Long Hair - Cosplay Help

Ever wonder how I fit my poofy, thick Hagrid hair into a wig? Here's how! FAQ:
FAQ:
--I use 2 wig caps because the net one holds it together, and the nylon one smooths it all out.
--I gather my hair more towards the back and bottom of my head because it blends better. This was also done in a haste, so it's not perfect.
--I don't use the braid method because with how thick my hair is, it bulks up way too much.
--When I put my bobby pin in, I put it in upside down because I found that it pokes my head a lot less that way.
--I only use 1 bobby pin because any more than that is irritating under the pressure of the caps and wig. This is also why I don't use the pin curl method.
--I have not washed my hair in a few days; this is the best time to smush it under a wig. Newly washed hair bulks up more!
--I do my makeup before I put my wig on, but after I put the cap on. This helps keep hair out of your way =)
--Wig used is Arda Wigs Westley in Black. I am planning on trimming up the front and using it for my Faith cosplay from Mirror's Edge: Catalyst!

Thank you for posting this I have been cosplaying for a few months now and have always struggled to get my hair in a wig cap and when I do there is always a bump somewhere that just looks awkward before I found this I was literally considering cutting my hair because I was tired of struggling so thank you because doing it this way I get to keep my long hair and still wear cosplay wigs

Just so you know, your video is still helping beginning cosplayers even eight years later!!! I've cosplayed and worn wigs before, but never with my long and thick hair I have now. Thank you so much!!! If you want a picture of my first cosplay in literally ten years, let me know!! You deserve a photo of the success you helped create ❤❤

Thank you. I'm unable to French braid my own hair. I tried doing the two regular, low, braids, and pinning those up. But each braid is so thick, that it just looked bumpy all over. It worked out under my pink Shuna wig (from "That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime"). I recently got a Nezuko wig, did a test wear using the pigtail braids criss-crossed and pinned method, but it felt quite bumpy. I shall give this method a shot. Liking the idea of being able to evenly distribute the hair under the wig cap on my head.

It is the DOUBLE wig cap that is keeping her hair in. With virgin hair, braid it. With her type hair, follow the twisting, etc.

Tysm, I really needed this bc I have thick, but not very long hair. I’ve been cosplaying for about a month and a half now and always struggled to put my hair up bc I didn’t know what type of style to use and couldn’t put a wig cap on bc there’s always a bump on the back of my head. I, ofc wore a wig and a wig cap before but I always had my mom do it whenever I wore wig for Halloween when I was younger. I wasn’t really taught at how to put on a wig or a wig cap correctly. *Ty for this video, I really needed it =)*

This is basically what I would do, but I secured it a little better. I separated it in half just as demonstrated. Then I used giant barettes on each side to clamp it down to my head all over so it wouldn't move or slide. then I put a wig cap over that whole thing.
@VictorianCatLady
@VictorianCatLady 7 месяцев назад
YES ty for this. I have hair just like yours. My Italian and Irish blood gave me a wild mop. I was still putting in two low braids, crossing them at the back of my head and pinning them to hell and back, then adding a wig cap. I had a Hatsuni wig that came with something but ended up not liking it so I never got into the better techniques. My husband got a beautiful one for me at Christmas for my streams. Gunna wear it live for the first time today and i wanna make sure it looks good. Its a really pretty wavy long purple one ^.^

I would suggest straightening your hair first and maybe adding a second nylon cap. I hope that helps a little bit! Just mess around with it and see what works for you =)
@kurenaikiba
@kurenaikiba 8 лет назад
I'm Jamaican and Afican American so my hair is extremely thick. Sometimes I even wear braid extensions and am still able to put it under wigs. Sometimes too much flat ironing can lead to damage just to keep your hair tucked up under a cap. What I do is braid four cornrows straight back and In between, I bring the ends of the cornrows up and snuggle them in between the cornrows. Pin them down then begin the 2 cap process. This should work out better for you! No bumps :)

Bittersweet ! A mood. Every time I try to put my hair up in a wig it bulks so bad and looks like I have an egg shaped alien head in the back! Ugh. The curls make it worse too lol. I'm hoping to save money for some proper stuff, and maybe a proper wig will help too.

@SamanthaFlynnCosplay
@SamanthaFlynnCosplay 8 лет назад
I always try to smooth out the hair lump in the back after I put the first cap on, before I put the second on. I mistakenly forgot to show that step in this video. But maybe try to spread the hair out evenly around the crown area of your head, so it's not a lump in the back? And perhaps your wig cap is too tight? Hopefully this can be of some help! Good luck!
