Wig Basics - How to Make a Wig for Art Dolls and Sculpts / OOAK

Hey everyone! My supporters voted for Wig Basics series for OOAK dolls, BJD, sculptures etc. This is the third video of the series. This time I will show you how I make the wigs for my art projects. I have two ways of creating them as a base for further styling that I show in this video.
I hope the series will help you if you have troubles in making wigs. I know I had when I first started making wigs and the whole series got inspired from that. Send me likes and comments if you like the series and thank you so much! xo

Omg when the cat faced the camera so cute 😂❤️ and the wig looks so beautiful and soft wow✨🌸

[@anastasiamaliuha5481]

I could never figure out how you do part lines and you know what? Until you said there was a glue dot I couldn't even see it! Incredibly delicate work!

[@MariaLazarsArt]

Aww thank you very much. 🥰

[@BroughtToYouByDDean]

This is so incredibly concise and clear. Very well done tutorial that is easy to follow and leaves no questions unanswered. Very good work!

[@MariaLazarsArt]

Thank you so much, I am very glad that it was helpful. 🥰

[@tatianehirata5556]

OMG, I've just found your channel! The wig is perfect and the explanation is detailed! I want to start customizing my own dolls, but I don't have any experience.

[@MariaLazarsArt]

Thank you, that means incredibly much. 💗

[@eeeeeeee57478]

I started customising a while ago- I just finished my 4th doll- you can improve your skills really quickly. Or just keep practicing on one doll as a base! Hairspray works well as a first coat as instead of msc. Just don’t use it on top of your work or it’ll come off!
Hope this helped 😊

[@aedoria]

Nobody has any experience when they start :) i hope you've gotten the chance to do your own custom!

[@sweetmimi286]

Great video, Maria!
Thanks a lot!!! ❤

Just the video I was looking for! Thank you 🙏🏻

[@user-zo1ht6rt7u]

Доброго времени Вам! Спасибо за удивительный ролик! Он просто замечательный! Смотрю его, когда нужно собраться для точной и тонкой работы: шитье, парики или модификация. Очень помогает Ваша аккуратность сгруппироваться для удара и сделать хорошо миниатюрную работу. Кроме того, ролик содержит массу полезной информации. Приятно посмотреть и просто так,чтобы отдохнуть. Очень спокойно и уютно сделано. Еще и еще раз спасибо за работу. С уважением и признательностью Ирина.

[@lumine3646]

Thanks a lot for this tutorial, it’s very clear and easy to follow! I’ve been customising my first doll, and I tried rerooting, but it’s very tedious and breaks a lot of needles😅

[@MariaLazarsArt]

Thank you for watching and for the kind words! ❤ Oh, those were also some of the reasons that made me switch to wigs. It was just too troublesome. 😄

[@animaker1247]

I love your videos, thank you 💐

[@cynthiat6505]

Your videos are just beautiful! I truly enjoy them.

[@MariaLazarsArt]

[@petrahachmann5289]

As always a work in perfection. Thanks for sharing, but I think I never get this workflow you had.

Hello @MariaLazar - I love your wonderful tutorials, so calming, and full of useful information, instructions - I am wondering how you would do a wig with a widows peak, and hair swept back - like an oriental woman's style?

I started doll repainting recently, thanks for the tutorial! How do you style short hair without the glue showing?

[@nhiam6021]

How do you push the upper wefts down after crossing it at the top of the head? Do you use smt hot? Thank you for the amazing video

[@karlojhairgutierrezdorrega7256]

Precious

[@whitearanaraven7714]

That's so cool.😲 Can you please tell me where do you get the bodys from ?

[@nyschka02]

I love your videos! Btw, where can I buy that clear permanent glue?

[@adri28526]

what material do you use to make the wig? i love your vids

[@phoenixreign7522]

Hello, I just came across your videos. I was really wanting to know more info about the glue you use. Could yo please tell me what the name of it is? Thanks

[@theukuleleelf6944]

please could you ltell us what was the clear glue you used to attach the wefts to the cap? thank you so much for your fabulous content too!!

[@MariaLazarsArt]

Thank you. 💖 This is a clear craft glue that's permanent. They all look the same, at least I haven't seen any that are different.

[@jennglow4647]

[@dollarstorevodka]

How do you prevent your wefts from breaking apart?

How about Megumin from Konosuba Doll Art / OOAK

[@ireallylikenuggets9490]

This is off topic, but what is the name of that film/foil stuff in your mermaid/wisp videos? I want to try making something iridescent. The hair looks gorgeous, by the way.

[@toastyxboops]

it could be unicorn skin, iridescent flakes or leaf foil

[@MariaLazarsArt]

Thank you. ❤ Yes, this is iridescent film. 🙂

[@ireallylikenuggets9490]

@@MariaLazarsArt Thank you!

[@Romyislief]

The fringe I made kept jumping up, now I boilwashed it for a second time, it’s currently drying here is to hoping that this pass worked🤞🤞

[@kristinafajnorova6160]

Hi, um maybe you uploaded it somewhere but I didn t find it. Could you tell me what type of hair is that? I hope it s not alpaca.😅

[@LauraDeLoessian]

I think I should invest in some precision tweezers.

[@diane519]

how did you make the stand? the one that's holding the head up. I saw there was a metal stick and a base

[@MariaLazarsArt]

Oh I didn't make that stand, it is actually a doll stand with a metal ring that I just pulled out. The head is actually sitting on a sculpting tool. 🤭

[@torilashaye9537]

And that’s how you do a quick weave y’all 😂😂

[@VladVirn]

Very useful lesson, thank you! But why is yours wefts have so narrow "belts"? I bought several brands of wefts, and they all have pretty thick "belt" (piece of cloth to which hairs are attached). So after gluing on small head it looks not so pretty as yours.

[@MariaLazarsArt]

Oh yes, I couldn't agree more! I had the exact same problem, that is why I just started making them myself. Here is the video from the same series th-cam.com/video/zFaDRQGzBAA/w-d-xo.html

[@royceburger7929]

Is that silicone glue?

[@MariaLazarsArt]

If you mean the clear that is an all purpose permanent transparent glue. It does look a bit like silicone. For an example UHU are decent. Depending what is available to you I find it easier searching "all purpose clear/transparent glue". I find it so difficult getting a specific brand and there are so many other, hence the reason I prefer giving the description of the materials. ☺✌

[@whiteegretorchids8234]

What type of doll is the head you’re using in this video?

[@MariaLazarsArt]

This is a Cocco head by Parabox.

[@whiteegretorchids8234]

@@MariaLazarsArt thank you!

[@RinaDasler]

I just tried to it & it doesn’t work for synthetic hair at :(

[@niklively]

what is on your nails? WANT

[@MariaLazarsArt]

That's just pastel pink gel. ❤

[@sarahmishelldeguzman4647]

But it cant be wash right?

[@MariaLazarsArt]

No unfortunately, if water reaches the wig cap it will loosen the glue. I have had to wash finished wigs previously but only from the half way down and trying not to reach the cap.

[@moniqueodile]

Thank you for the comprehensive video, shame about the annoying music. Well now I am going to make my first wig…..

[@MariaLazarsArt]

Thank you so much, I hope the video is helpful. 🥰 Sorry about the music. 💕
