Putting the black nylon under the lace is simply ingenious and makes such a difference in making the holes much more visible. Thanks for sharing this video.
This is a faster method than the ventilating method for me since my time is limited. Before watching your video, I was ready to just sew the whole track in and just wear a head-band, LOL Thank you.
Omgggg you’re the first video I clicked on.....🗣and don’t need to watch another. I wanted to fix my hairline/babyhair on my wig from the hair shedding. I was clueless as to how it would be done. Thought I would have to trash a great wig. I am extremely confident after watching this. This is the most simplest and easy tutorial to follow. I can now repair my wigs.....after all these years 😩 Thank you
Excellent demo. I appreciate the detail and closeup. I too tried the traditional hook and still can’t master it. This one is much easier. Thanks a million.
The best lace wig I ever owned was the one i made using the tiny latch hook needle and lace netting from the fabric store. I'm so glad to see a video on using the latch hook needle.
Thanks for this! I found of these needles in my great grandmothers sewing kit and never knew what it was for. But she made dolls all the time! This makes so much sense!
I was just out at two beauty supply stores this morning and can you believe they did not know what I was talking about? lol I was dreading to have to order one online . this is terrific I'm going to fill in my balled spot on my wig right now. 😁😁😁 thank you for this Jesus your saving me so much damn money. I'm so excited right now!!! omggggggg!!
Thank you so much for showing this. I have been trying to learn and struggling so bad with the Asian needle. I finally feel like I'm starting to put it together now thank you so much
Hello I purchase the latch hook needle in area, taking a training class and it didn't seem to work. So I decided to go on RU-vid for more information. I came across your video and watched and replayed, determine to get this and I did! Thank you for adding to my knowledge. You were a blessing in my journey of doing this as a profession.
Wow, it's very much like rug latching! Only the latch-hook is MUCH SMALLER. I'm elated you showed a proper tutorial on how to make a lace front wig. Additionally, I'm glad I learned basic rug latching when I was about 11 yrs. old at summer camp...perhaps, I can use that old knowledge and combine it with your professional technique & advice and come up with a really nice lace front wig. THANK YOU SO MUCH for taking the time out your busy day to share your skills & knowledge. God Bless U!
THANKS FOR THIS TUTORIAL,I BOUGHT A KNIT PICKER FROM HOBBY LOBBY FOR AROUND $2.00 I LOVE THIS METHOD AND FOR ME AS A BEGINNER IT IS SOOO MUCH FASTER. THANK YOU!
Omg Thankyou so much for this. Other videos did not explain in detail or show how to latch the hair up close. Now I can finally make my own closures. Thanks a milli.. 🙌🏾
Odori Oliver I feel the same way! My bestie bought this HORRIBLE wig. I set the part with lace but that part was just too fake looking. now I can hide that mess!
I always come back to this video, it is where I got my inspiration to make videos because I just realized I wasn't alone using non conventional tools for wig making :D
smart. I've been working with those latch hooks doing micro links extensions,,lol awesome that you are ventilating with it. very smart. helps knock out the bulk of the unit, and then the hair line is fine when actual ventilating needed to make it more single hair effect. freaking brilliant
+cursos belleza just wondering why you called her stupid for acknowledging RU-vid as an excellent resource for leaning new things in life? Just asking #letstreateachotgerwithrespect#
cerah brown because she is supporting the possibility of business being taken away from people across the world if you catch my drift. That's why they must insult us and our knowledge to be great thinkers. RU-vid is full of talent but the most threatening is black hair
I am sooooo happy I found this, I'm trying to finish my crochet wig video and using the ventilating tool is so hard! My mom does it with no issues but I cannot get it!!! Thankyou for this!!!
you are such a talented girl. you know so much about so many things. I appreciate all your tutorials on all subjects. thanks for sharing all your wisdom.
I just purchased the latch needle--you are on the mark! It is MUCH easier. I also went to His and her's and bought the regular vent needle. Bought the head on eBay. Bought latch needle on eBay also. 20 something. Then I ordered some from China cheaper, but 3 different sizes. Latch hooks are hard to find, but so so much easier.
I absolutely love this method. I started with the venting needle and I too got frustrated. So I went to Michael's and bought a tool similar to a latch hook called a Knit Picker by a company called Loops & Threads. It was in the sewing area with the scissors and sewing needles. It was $2.75. Hope this helps. And @Andrene, I used Tulle Circles and folded them for more stability. They were$2.99 at Joann Fabrics. It works fine.
It's 3 minutes to 3 am est, & all I can say is the precision with which you explain this and the visual is #asmr alone lol. I apreciate this, bout to get that 84 inch kanekalon and let the summer pass me by lol. subscribed
Well explained your tutorial for beginners is so explanatory and 🤩 am just ventilating already though slow because it’s my first time 👍💃🏻thanks so much for this video.
Thank you! At last! I needed to see this and am so looking forwars to ordering this needle. Also the tutorial is slow and the close up is crystal clear. Great!
Excellent tutorial. Your method looks soooo much easier. I'm planning on making a natural looking afro kinky lace closure that I can use for both my curly and straight kinky u-part wigs coz all the ready made afro lace closures I've seen online have silky straight roots (since they are curled after they are put on the lace) .I had bought the curvy style ventilating needle sometime ago, in case I ever needed to repair my wig. I played around with it briefly but could not get it to work AT ALL! But after seeing your video, I'm so relieved to know that my idea is actually possible!! I've now ordered the latch hook on eBay using the link you provided. It was even cheaper than the curvy one I got from Ali Express! Thanks A LOT for sharing!!
I'm glad you posted this. Great Vid. I planned on doing one too. I did this four years ago for an entire full lace wig and currently for repairing or reventing my wigs. I actually used the netting from the fabric store that was the color of my scalp(have to be careful) but it was the BEST lace wig I have ever owned and I have paid $300 or more for my human hair full lace wigs before. That fabric store netting (tulle I think it was) blended better as a scalp than any of them I have.
Thank you so much for taking the time to show this amazing work. you're God sent to me! have been looking for someone that takes their time to teach. God bless and multiply your business!
Jacquee22, thanks for sharing your process in this tutorial. I bought this latch-hook needle at SALLY'S yesterday for less than $5. There was no need to order online and wait for delivery. The latch-hook works just as demonstrated in this video.
I accidentally over plucked my frontal and I still have hair left over and instead of cutting it or getting a new one I’ve decided to use you tutorial :) will be trying this once I get the chance, thank you!!!
You are so amazing ! I recently cut all of my hair off and just got into making my own wigs ! I been looking for videos to make a lace closure with the latch hook , thank God that I front your page ! Also in order to use your hair that's on the weft have to remove the thread , its a long process it a guy who has a video on here that shows you the steps . I love your video thanks a bunch !
Thanks u so much! I finally can understand u should make a ventilation needle video too, cause I have the,needle but can't understand the super wig makers video beacuse he moves to fast and there is no verbal instruction. Ur a life saver.
Faithe Bey i got mine today for .99 from bk beauty in concord nc. I almost choked when she said what she paid. I like her ventalating tools though. I'm going to look for them.
:D thanks for accepting my video response. It is a good way to make it faster with the latch hook and it is ideal for bulkier spots like the back of the wig. For the front part it is still possible to use the latch hook as long as it is very thin and small, otherwise it might rip the lace. Keep up the good work
I think this is a great tutorial i will be trying making wigs on a budget. Sewing the tracks all the way to the top then ventilating the hair over it closed so you cant see them. Probably will save me like $50.
Thank you so much for this. I feel so much more relieved about resorting my shedding wig Though it seems like newly installed knots seem to be standing slightly upwards at the base -- but I could be seeing things. Regardless, it may not even be that noticeable while wearing the wig especially from far away or with a lot of hair on the wig.
great tutorial! small question; the loop you make, you take in the middle of the hairs? so if you want your wig to be 22 inch you need 44 inch of hair? kisses!
Thank you for showing this in such detail! You should make an affiliate account with amazon and link the needle & other products you use (pantyhose, lace, etc.) you use in the bio so you can get paid each time someone buys one of those after watching your video. Anyway, this is great!
😍😍😍😍😘😘😘😘😘😘 I'm so super excited, you are so great so amazing may the almighty God bless your heart and hands... Thanks so much for sharing this awesome video I just learned it in 2 second oh wow, thanks so much dear, once again God bless you
This is a great video!!! I've watched it over & over. I ordered some ventilating tools from amazon. I think I'm in over my head. I've been wearing wigs for a while now. My mono wig has lost a lot of hair at the top & crown area. So it's really getting thin up there. I did order some lace also. So I placed my wig on a foam head. My plan was to add some more hair by ventilating. The problem is 1) the lace on this mono wig is so tiny, I can hardly see the holes! 2) the ventilating device didn't come with any instructions on how to put it together. I have 3 different size tips (hooks). I can't get the hook to fit well in the handle. Then when I try to screw it back together, the hook is not straight. 3) It's to unstable to use. 4) the smallest tip is still too big to go through the holes. The tool also came with something that's pliable. It looks like two pieces of thin wire crossing over at the tip where it makes a small opening. Then it's open through the middle & comes down to meet where they're fused together. I don't even know what this is. What am I doing wrong? Can you help me? Or anyone else that reads this. Thanks.
@Bellishae - It depends on if it is full ventilation wig or tracks. A full ventilation wig takes me about 2-3 weeks if I work on it everyday for 2 hours. A track wig takes about 3 hours if I buy the net instead of custom making it. Hope I answered your question.
May God bless you will take time but this is my goal thanks alot for teaching me. You let me know everything in a gentle Spirit and understanding mode step by step🙆
Thank you for this I have all the tools just made it easier for me to follow your steps dear, never mind about them with gabby mouth because they're never pleased about what a lending hand does to them but mourners even to people they've never mate.
That was an excellent tutorial. I watched a few using the ventilation tool and was a bit concerned. The hook latch method is simpler and you can make the frontal a bit denser.
This tool and net is best for BEGINNERS ONLY. The needle that she used will tear French, Swiss, or Natra Lace which is best used for more intricate natural looking lace fronts or lace wigs
they actually have them at Sally's stores and site for $3.89. I actually use netting as well. You can go to a fabric store a pick according to the size of the whole you want, color and durability. plus, its cheaper. you can get a yard for about $2
