How to Change the Part of Wig or Topper
Are you tired of the same old look with your human hair wig or topper? Do you want the versatility of changing your hairstyle? But, without committing to a whole new piece? You’re in luck! A simple and great way to transform your look is to change the part of your wig or topper. You may want a chic side part or a bold middle part, or anything in between. This post has all the knowledge and tools you need.
Why Change Your Part?
Changing the part of your human hair wig or topper can dramatically alter your appearance. It can create the illusion of more volume, soften your features, or even give you a whole new look entirely. A middle part often looks sleek and modern. A deep side part adds a touch of classic Hollywood glamour. By simply shifting the part, you open up a world of styling possibilities.
Tools of the Trade: Gathering Your Supplies
Before you begin changing your wig’s part, gather the tools you need. Here is a list of tools to ensure a smooth process:
- Water Spray Bottle: Water is essential for dampening the hair and making it more pliable (flexible) for styling.
- Wide-Tooth Comb: A wide-tooth comb is your best friend when working with wigs. Its gentle teeth prevent snagging and pulling. They ensure a smooth, damage-free combing of your hair
- Blow Dryer: A blow dryer is important will help you get the job done.
How to Change the Part on Your Human Hair Wig
Now that you have your tools ready, let’s start changing the part on your human hair wig or topper. I will guide you through the process step by step.
- Dampen the Hair: Fill your spray bottle with water. Lightly mist the hair at the top of the wig. Focus on the area where you want to create your new part. Avoid soaking the hair, as this can make drying time longer and potentially damage the wig/topper cap.
- Use the pointed end of your wide-tooth comb. Carefully create your part. You may want a middle part, a side part, a diagonal part, or a zig-zag part. However, make sure the line is clean and precise.
- Blow dry your part: Set your blow dryer to medium heat and direct the airflow along the new part. Use your wig brush to brush the hair downward as you dry, encouraging it to lie flat and smooth.
- Style as Usual: Once your part is completely dry and set, style your wig as desired. You can curl it, straighten it, or create any other hairstyle that complements your new part.
Be patient and gentle throughout the process. Changing the part of a wig or topper takes time and care. Avoid rushing or using excessive force, as this can damage the hair or the cap.
