I recommend trimming at least to get rid of any wispy ends. If you are not a hairdresser and don’t feel confident doing this you could find a local hairdresser to do it for you. Alternatively your client may want their own hairstylist to do it for them.

Again depends on each wig, how much hair is needed etc, but roughly £200-£500 per wig - it varies.

I would recommend constantly researching, that’s what I’ve done over the years on Instagram and YouTube for example. This way you pick up new tips, different ways of doing things , learn about different hair types and textures. You never stop learning in the hair industry!

It takes me around 2 hours on the machine, but I’ve been doing them a good while remember … it wasn’t always the case in the early days, I would spend a whole day or more doing one. You will get into your own rhythm with them and get quicker the more you make.

I recommend sulphate-free shampoo and a good quality hair mask Always use heat protection spray before using a heated appliance on them and avoid sleeping, swimming or showering whilst wearing. Always store on a mannequin when not in use.

This depends on how much time each day or week you have to dedicate to the training, plus whether you have any previous experience or not. You have 26 weeks (6 months) access to the course, so once you get started you can plan your time.

This personal preference, it does keep all the natural hair nice and neatly tucked away.

I recommend ghost bond xl, got 2 be glued or Walker lace front tape

This will vary from person to person, some pick it up right from the start and are really good and others take a lot more practice, like with anything lots of practice makes perfect.

No the course is not accredited, it is simply a watch and learn detailed online tutorial. Most of the best wig makers out there are self taught, you are always learning and growing in the wig industry. I’ve spent a few years researching and have included the knowledge I’ve picked up myself over the years that wasn’t taught to me.

I find small size wigs are generally the most popular but that may not be the case for everyone so check your client's head circumference if unsure.

Yes of course, many wig makers start out completely hand stitching, the concept is the same, mapping out the lines and laying on the tracks etc. Just adapt to hand sewing rather than machine. If you do want to make money from wig making then you may want to invest in a sewing machine, which doesn't have to cost a lot. I have included a short tutorial on using a sewing machine in this course.

I prefer the regular lace caps or the Jewish lace caps.

That all depends on length and density required, anything from a 100g bundle (plus frontal / closure) to 250g total (plus frontal / closure). The longer the wig the more hair required.

That all depends on how often it’s worn and how it’s cared for, plus the hair quality. As a rough estimate, around 9-12 months if worn daily but can last much longer and will differ from client to client.

Of course, but always remember to use a heat protection spray or similar beforehand.

A frontal wig incorporates a larger lace piece and covers a bigger area, 13x4 usually with an ear to ear piece with full hairline all the way around. On a closure wig only the top section is lace, usually 5x5 or 6x6, the rest of the wig is made up of weft hair that travels all the way round to the ear tabs, these can normally be worn glue-less unlike the lace frontal wigs which tend to require adhesive on the lace edges.
