- Want to know how to put your hair in your wig without a cap? Or how to properly wear a wig grip? Or where should you place your wig hairline if you have no hair underneath to guide you?
If you don't want to bother braiding down your hair, and don't want to take hours trying to keep your hair under your wig, this video is PERFECT for you! This is the QUICKEST glue-less wig install for BEGINNERS. How to quickly put a wig on and secure it to your head is something I am asked A LOT. Today I show you how I've been doing it for YEARS. This is the easiest, and quickest wig install, perfect for your glue-less wigs (ears tabs are your best friend!!!) I show you just how simple wearing wigs can really be....There's no need to complicate it! This is literally all I do every single morning.
**** A QUICK NOTE **** I am demonstrating on a wig cap construction that has EAR TABS! If you have a full-lace wig with NO ear tabs, you may have to take additional steps to secure your wigs by the ears. Got2B Glue works great for this! 👍

I just got my very first glueless lacefront wig and it felt so different from the basic caps that I'm used to. It honestly felt like nothing was holding it onto my head. I got some of the wig bands you're using and wow, what a difference! It feels so secure now. Your videos are so helpful to wig newbies like me, thank you!
I had searched and searched for a thorough explanation about the proper way to use the wig grip and this is the BEST video coverage. Thank you
Yay!! I’m so glad it was helpful 💕
Thank you so much! I put my first wig on the wrong way earlier this evening, and felt really discouraged. Your detailed and easy instructions and your awesome attitude and personality truly help me feel one hundred times more confident in this process. I appreciate you a lot!!
I’m 71 and although my hair is a lovely color, it is thin and I am growing tired of having to style everyday. Then I put a toque on and …ugh! Lol
I just ordered 2 different wigs and am excited to try them when they arrive! Thank you so much for this tutorial 🎉 super helpful
You are adorable and fun to watch ( not in a weird way😂)
Hiii! Awe I’m so excited for you to try out your wigs!! 😍 which ones did you get?
This was the most helpful video I’ve watched for putting on a wig! Well done! 🏆👊🏻
That’s amazing!!! 🥹❤️ I’m so happy it was helpful
I’m losing my hair due to hypothyroidism at age 63! 😩
Ah. Gosh. Looks so so pretty!!! I recently had a mental break and my anxiety was so bad I just started plucking out my hair until I literally had like a receding hairline and a bald spot. It was too lateby the time I looked into the mirror, and I ended up having to shave my head bald. Still makese choke up and it was almost two weeks ago. All I can afford are cheap like Walmart wigs lol. Single mom of twin three year old girls equals broke and temporarily unemployed!!! Gosh but someday I'm going to get a wig like this one!!! Looks really beautiful on you!!! Love the tutorial! Thank you for sharing! 💕
@Wigs with Steph......THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH for your wig tutorial !!! You have NO idea how much your wig tutorial has helped me. I have two brand new wigs. (Ignite & Cory) I am NEW to the world of wigs & today was the very FIRST day I have worn one, just around the house, but tomorrow, I now have the confidence to wear it in public. thanks to listening & learning from you & to you. I would love to cut "bangs" on my "Ignite", but I just KNOW I would mess it up, so, I will wait. But I NEED to have "bangs" & have ALWAYS worn them, which is why I bought "Cory". Anyway, many, MANY THANKS for this FANTASTIC tutorial.
YAY! I'm SO SO glad this was helpful to you!!!! I also made a video on how to cut bangs (how I cut bangs on my wig, Nice Move by RW). I'll link it incase it's helpful to you 🥰 th-cam.com/video/jjbE3L42pa0/w-d-xo.html
Wow! Thank you so much for your vblog of instruction of putting on wig! You’re natural!
Hi Steph, I am 65 and have lovely natural curly hair (red). My hair is fine like yours and just flattens out with hats and headbands in the winter. Anyhoo, I have ordered two different hairpieces and one wig. I am hoping that I love them when they come. I am trying to find pieces that are similar to my hair!! So hard to find the color. First I really appreciate your tutoring and info. Secondly, it's really inspiring how natural you look in your wigs, and how much you enjoy them on a daily basis. I feel as though I am just dipping my toe in the water. I hope the water is warm. You seem to be enjoying yourself. Thanks for your lovely sharing. Heather
Great tutorial Steph! Thanks. 👩🦰
Thank you! I hope it was helpful =)
This video was so helpful and gave me a lot of confidence in applying my wigs. Thank you! ❤
You’re amazing Steph. Recently discovered your channel and your videos are so clear, helpful and great to watch. Bless you for helping all of us out here new to wigs.
You are really good at teaching for beginners because you take it step by step and you don't rush. Thank you for doing this and the wig looks really good on you. I have alopecia so the hairline has to look natural. I like low density wigs and want to get one but I am wondering how am going to keep the temple area secure. Can you pull this into a ponytail?
Really helpful regarding the wig grip. Thank you💛
Everything looks great on you! Gorgeous!!! 🎉 😎👌
very helpful! Happy I found your channel.
Great video, wish I would have seen it when I got my first wig, I liked how you always turned and showed the back👍🏼Thank you
Amazing trick and wig! Thank you! 😊
Thakyou so much for your video on wig grips. I am so glad to learn proper way to place wig grip. Did not know it had to feel rough going back. First time I heard of that. Your video is very helpful for a first time wig wearer!!😊
Thank you for the videos it encourages us newbies and I also love date your videos are not super long. Some videos are so long that by the time they get to the point I am gone to the next. So thank you please keep them coming 😊
Love your honesty
Ty so much for this video. It will help me a ton
Thank you! I’m going to try the coconut oil.
Very helpful Steph I refer back to this 👍
Thank you for your comment ❤ I hope the tutorial was helpful xo
Excellent video! Thank you:)
Thank you. VERY Helpful!
Where do you buy your wigs? I’m in Miami FL; thank you for your educational videos, I enjoyed them as much as I’m learning from you. Many blessings! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thanks for this review.
Hi Steph, really appreciate the time and effort you put into these videos. Seeing as you’ve experienced both wigs what would be your favourite for everyday wear.. JR Zara lite or RW Mesmerised. Looking forward to more awesome vids from you. 😊❤
Hey!! ❤️ I’ve been really enjoying both of them so much. They are very different though, so depends what you prefer/ what head size you have. Mesmerized is heat friendly, Zara Lite is not. Mesmerized is a smaller cap, Zara Lite is larger. Mesmerized has an undetectable lace front (more highlights at the hairline), whereas Zara Lite has a few dark knots at the front (not as much highlights brought to the front) ❤️
Wow looks really good on u 👍
Excellent
Great tutorial
Thank you 🙋♀️👏👍
THANK YOU! New Sub. I was wearing my wig grip WRONG 🙄
Gorgious with and w/o a wig ..U R A BEAUTY ❤
Good teacher ~ thanks ❤
Thanks so much for this tutorial. I’m a newbie and I’m still trying to figure everything out and get my confidence up to wear my wig out (I have thinning hair but love wigs for the different looks they give us). My question is what kind of coconut oil do you use and how do I use it…on damp/wet hair under my wig or on dry hair? Thanks so much for all your help!!
Thank you for your video's .
You’re so welcome ❤️ thank you for the comment! Xo
THANK YOU
What company do you order your wigs? and what is the name of the band that holds the wig in place? Thank you so much.
Hi Steph, question... how do find realistic wings that aren't so shiny that they look like they have sat in a chlorinated pool? I will have to start wearing one very soon and just want the most natural and low density where I won't have questions asking if I am wearing a wig? love watching your video's SO HELPFUL ❣❣❣
Steph, does the coconut oil transfer to the wig? My bio hair is like yours.
Very helpful thank you so much. I have a Henry Margu wig, but not sure how to wash it. Please could you advise me? X
Hello! ❤️ I’ve made a video on how I wash all of my synthetic wigs here: th-cam.com/video/HF81wG5LT2g/w-d-xo.htmlsi=rAQLxJXGJiXzri0B
I have the lace front easy does it wig, by Raquel Welsh. Having an issue with the lace front not laying flat, what can I be doing wrong? Should the cat be tighter or looser?
Hello and thanks for your video. If you bend over at the waist and it show the back of your neck, can you tell it's a wig?
Great tutorial. Do you ever use the product " it stays "? Thank you
Hey! Actually I've never found the need to use "it stays", but I have heard good things about it. Unfortunately because I don't have an experience with it yet, I don't want to give an opinion of it. Thanks for mentioning it though!!!! I am eager to try it out now :D
How do you hide the lace front. I have a beautiful wig and it looks and fits great on my head but you can definitely see the lace front. It's precut lace and it's cut pretty close to the hairline but I can still see it. What can I do to fix that?
Do you use heat defence spray when putting heat on it? Great video, 😊
Hii 🤗❤️ no, I don’t use any spray- I just go in with heat tools on my heat friendly synthetics. BUT occasionally when I feel like my wig needs it, I’ll use a silicone spray on my synthetic to bring some of that luster / shine back 🤗
Don’t you ever get headaches after consistently wearing them for days? Cos I do. What seems to be wrong?
Do the wig bands ever cause headaches?
I can not use any kind of rubber band. My hair is so fine and thin, what do I use in place of them?
Hello, like your videos, I see the wig grip some, is that normal..I have the beige like you, can I put coconut oil if I use a wig cap also? TY
Hello! :)
Yes, you can use coconut oil whether you’re wearing a wig cap or a wig grip (or neither!)
Yes, it’s normal to see the wig grip and it’s especially noticeable on me when I don’t wear a wig cap under the wig grip (because when I wear both, it’s the same color all the way around my head so there’s no difference in color). But because my hair is dark underneath, sometimes you can see where my wig grip ends (under the cap) and where my hair begins. I find people never notice this on me in person though because I’m taller and nobody can really see the top of my head. I always just wear my wigs like this and don’t worry about it and nobody ever knows. If I was a shorter person, then I think I’d wear a wig cap too to make sure it’s all one color to minimize the chances of someone noticing :)
Hope this makes sense!
@@WigsWithSteph Thank you for the quick response and support!
I am new to wigs, have very simiilar petite dimensions as you, and do NOT want to wear a wig cap, so am trying your strategy of tiny hairband, skinny pony/bun in back as you show... but want to confirm which wig grip you now recommend for a well fitting wig (focusing on ellen willies petite/average) and with ear tabs, mostly open wefts) .. You listed the Milano COLLECTION No-Slip Wig Grip Band Original WiGrip Comfort Band for Women in another video, and here, the Dreamlover Wig Grip for female, Wig Grip Bands ... which of the two would you recommend for someone using your setup of pony/bun in back, with with grip ONLY, to keep it most securely on head as possible? Also, does it matter which color wig grip? And will this method harm my hair line? The wig caps, netted or nylon, ALL seemed to pull on my hair line and felt too tight, even with my tiny head... Thanks for your thoughts and I love your videos!
I prefer my Milano wig grip more: amzn.to/3SiLbsL
For the color of wig grip, I always think tan is best so that it mimics a head underneath. Too light of a band may make too much of a contrast between the band and your own hair (and if you’re not wearing a cap then it might be showing your own hair- if that’s a concern for you.) the Milano wig grip comes in tan, and it’s perfect for me.
I don’t have any issues with the wig grip pulling on my hair at all. As long as your careful and mindful with how you wear your wigs, wigs can be a positive thing for your own hair and actually be protective, helping your hair to grow
Loved your thorough explanation. But Im interested to know if the coconut oil makes the wig inside smelly and oily??
Not at all =) If your hair is dry like mine, your hair will likely soak of most of it anyways. I can tell you that I've been doing it this way for years and I've never had a smelly, oily wig. Ever!
(Even when it comes time to wash my wig, it's NEVER because of a smelly or oily cap.. it's because the fibers need to be cleaned and refreshed. But it's never to do with the cap).
And of course the coconut oil step might not be for everyone. But if I didn't mention it in this video (when I really do this every time), then I'd feel like I missed telling you all about a very important step in my routine to care for my hair 🥹 Also, if your hair doesn't like coconut oil, or you don't like it, you definitely don't have to use it. I just really love it.
@@WigsWithSteph THANK YOU so much for your lengthy reply- its so nice of you to explain all that. Very encouraging to hear that the oil doesn't affect the wigs (I love it and it smells nice but I must say I was surprised to see your method, but very happy and will try it now)! Thanks so much!!! :)
My problem is the back likes to slide up because i have a small or weird shaped head lol. If i tighten the adjusters too much it slides worse so i try to keep it looser but it still likes to slide. Tips? I have simmer regular i wish they made petite... I'm about to order wig grips it may help it stay better or fill it out a bit
I have a weird head too, I guess! Sew two snap clips (one on each side) on the back of the wig (at the nape of the neck). I buy them online or at hair stylist shops. I sew them with a circular needle and thread the color of the wig cap. I make sure not to poke my finger while sewing. 😵
When they're on the wig firmly, put on your wig. To snap the clips: I "grab" hair with each clip before snapping it shut, and "test it," move it around a tiny bit to see if it's going to hurt me or not. If it is, I re-grab hair until I find the perfect amount of hair that won't bother me, then I snap shut. Same with the other.
That holds the wig down for me superbly!
Are the ear tabs visible ?
So smooth side up?
Hi beautiful 🤩
I am bold, do I have to use glue?
No, you don’t need to use glue at all. It is not my hair that keeps the wig on. If you have a glueless wig (a wig that has ear tabs & stays in the ear tabs) and a wig grip, your wig will absolutely stay on 🤗
Does the wig cap not get oily from the coconut oil?
Nope, it doesn't seem to get greasy. My hair also soaks up a lot of the oil before I put the wig on because it's super dry. And it's most important to me that my hair underneath doesn't break from rubbing against the wig cap that I wear for hours all day and the oil helps with that. Wig caps can strip your own natural hair oils, so that's why I recommend to moisturize your own hair before putting on a cap. I've never had an issue with a cap getting oily, but of course if you're concerned, you definitely don't have to put any oil on your own hair. This is just what I do, and I like it =)
Hope this helps. =)

Wig grips rule
How do you fix when the lace pops up a bit? With the wig grip I can’t get the lace to lay flat.
When that happens to me, it’s usually on one of my “lite” wigs (by Jon Renau), in which case I usually push the wig grip back a bit (means it’s too close to the hairline) and then I do a quick tuck of the ear tabs bottom hairs behind my ears. That usually does the trick for me 💁🏼♀️
I love u……
No wonder that wig is so nice. it cost $608.99 - $656.99. for a synthetic wig. whoa
❤😊❤
Are there glueless wigs that are a lot more affordable?
There definitely is! But always remember that you do get what you pay for. If someone has spent more time making it, it will be better quality and the cost will be higher. If it didn’t take much time, is wefted (made by a machine), hairline quickly thrown together, you can find a pretty cheap wig like that. All price ranges exist. I like to show what I wear because they tend to look the most natural, but definitely there are others that exists for cheaper; it just won’t be of the same quality, if that makes sense.
@@WigsWithSteph A lot of us could never buy one for the higher prices.
What are these types of wigs called?!
Hiii! These types of wigs don’t have a specific name, because it’s just the cap construction that make them able to be worn glueless. That’s why I call them “glueless wigs”.
This cap construction (the glueless) are my favourite and I’ve done a ton of reviews on this type from all different brands if you’d like to check out my playlists of wig reviews 🤗💕 hopefully this helps xo
Whoa! No coconut oil! It loosens the knots on the lace!!!!
Nope it doesn't. I don't put it on the cap. It's going on my hair, which soaks it up. My hair is very dry. It is very common to tame your hair back before applying a wig. And if you're concerned, you can always wear a wig cap underneath as a barrier between the two.
I am also wearing a wig grip which for the most part, keeps the knots from sitting directly on my hair. Also, depends on the cap!!! I wear a ton of Mono tops too, which again, keeps the knots off my head. With lace, yes, you can take extra precaution, but this is the way I do it, all I can do is tell the truth, and it's been working perfectly for me for years. I've never EVER had an issue with knots. You are free to do whatever you're comfortable with!
Now l know why the back of wigs look like a Prophet, they are baggy at the back to accomodate people with long hair. ? So, what do people with very short or no hair have to do to buy a wig that’s not saggy on the back ?
you dont need a wig, your natural hair is pretty
No need to wear a wig, your own hair is prettier
Hi, I have tried to watch two of your videos. You tend to go on and on about the same thing. I lose interest after the point is made. Like the little rubber bands…..Yeah, we get it! Move on…….
My channel must not be for you
