Blocking Wigs

Equipment

·      Block

·      Wig

·      Cling film

·      Galloon

·      Scissors

·      Postiche pins

·      T-pins

Directions:

·      Position the block so that the more curved part is at the back and the central line acts as your guide for the nose.

·      Cover the block with cling film so that the block doesn’t get wet or damaged.

·      Position the wig onto the block.

·      Cut a piece of galloon to fit the lace outline of the wig. Cut it longer than you need so that you are guaranteed not to be short.

·      Secure the lace with the galloon and postiche pins.

·      Keep the lace as flat as possible and secure all around the hairline, even behind the ears.

·      Use T-pins to secure the lace, especially if the wig is larger than the block.
