A simple guide to tucking your hair and securing your wig
PDF download Download Article

If you want to try other hairstyles but don't want to cut your own luscious locks, a wig is a great option! With long hair, you need to tuck the hair up under the wig. The easiest way to contain your hair is to braid it and wrap it around your head. If you want to wear a wig longer than a day, you can also try cornrows, which are braids you weave tightly against your head. With your hair tied up, you can cover it with a wig cap and then attach a wig.

Things You Should Know

  • Divide your hair into 2 to 4 sections and braid each one loosely. Wrap the braids around your head, pinning them into place against your scalp with bobby pins.
  • Or, braid cornrows by dividing your hair into 1-2 in (2.5-5 cm) sections. Twist 2-3 braided sections together and pin them to the back of your head with bobby pins.
  • Then, place the wig cap around your neck and pull the elastic side across the front of your scalp. Pull the back over your head and put on the wig.

    If your hair isn't too thick, divide your hair down the middle from front to back. If you have thicker hair, divide each side into 2 sections vertically so you have 4 sections. [1]
    • Tie each section up loosely with a hair tie.

    [2] Start the braids down near the base of your scalp. If you're just doing 2 braids, you can start each one just behind your ears. To braid the hair, divide it into 3 sections, a left, middle, and right section. Bring the right over the middle, making it the middle section. Bring the left over the middle, making it the middle section. Continue alternating back and forth until you've braided the hair all the way down. Secure it with a small hair tie.
    • You're going to be wrapping the braids around your head, and loose braids will make this process easier. If you braid it too tightly, it may create lumps under the wig.

    Take one of the braids you just made and wrap it around the crown of your head, then secure the braid at the back of your head with a bobby pin. Continue wrapping the braid up and toward the front of your head until the whole braid is resting against your scalp. However, stop wrapping a few finger-lengths away from the front of your scalp so the braid won't show under the front of the wig. Once the entire braid is wrapped, add bobby pins all around the braid until it stays in place. [3]
    • Try to keep the braid as close to your head as possible.
    • If you have 4 braids, start with one of the back braids first.

    [4] Take the other braid in the back and wrap it the other direction, placing it just underneath the first braid. Pin it in place with bobby pins as you go, finishing the wrap around the front, just like the other braid.
    • Don't overlap braids, as that will create lumps.
    • If you have 4 braids, wrap the other braids around your hair where they will fit and pin them in place.
    • You can also use hair pins instead of bobby pins, which may help if you are having trouble getting your hair to stay in place, as they are a bit larger than bobby pins.

    Section off a small area of hair, making a line down your scalp from front to back. Start on one side of your head and work across. The section of hair should only be about 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5.1 cm) across. [5]

    Begin the cornrow braids by dividing an area into 3 small sections. Start at the front of your scalp with 1 row and create 3 even sections from just the very front part of the row. Pass the right section under the middle section, making it the middle section. Pass the left under the middle, making it the middle section. [6]

    Pull in hair to the right section from the row you're working on. Add hair to the left side, also from the row you're working on. This is much like a French braid, but you're working the hair under the cornrows instead of over. [7]
    • You only need to add the next little bit of hair, maybe 0.5 in (1.3 cm) or so.

    Keep braiding down the line of hair you've created. When you reach the base of your scalp, add any hair left in that section to the braid and make a regular braid the rest of the way down. Use a small hair tie to hold it in place. [8]
    • Use as small a hair tie as possible so it won't create lumps.

    Working from side to side, continue to divide and braid small sections of your hair. When you're finished, the braids should form a series of neat rows running from the front of your head to the back of your hairline. Secure each one with a hair tie. [9]

    [10] Twist several tails together and then wrap them around the back of your head near the base of the scalp. Pin them in place with large bobby pins. Do the same with the rest of the braid tails, trying not to overlap them. [11]
    • If your braid tails are especially thick, you can pin them up individually.

    [12] Typically, these have 2 holes, 1 with an elastic edge. Put your head through both holes so the cap is around your neck. Rearrange the cap so the elastic will be at the front of your scalp when you pull it up, meaning the bulk of the cap will be towards the back of your head. [13]
    • Another kind of wig cap fits like a winter hat, meaning it just has one hole that fits over your whole head. Pull it on over all your hair at once. [14]

    Pull the back of the cap, the non-elastic side, up over your hair. Draw it all the way to the back of your hair. As you do, make sure you don't pull the elastic edge past the front of your scalp. [15]

    [16] Use your fingers to tuck your sideburns under the front edge of the wig cap, then pull the elastic part behind your ears. Make sure the front edge is in place across the front part of your hair. [17]
    • If you have the other kind of wig cap, use your fingers to tuck any stray hairs up under the wig. [18]

    [19] Keeping the elastic in place all around the edge of your scalp, draw up the back half of the wig cap from the base of your skull. As you pull up, the back end should elongate, and you'll have the back hole of the wig in your hand. Draw the end of the cap up to the crown of your head and secure it with bobby pins or a hair clip. [20]
    • In other words, you're going to close off the back hole by pulling it out like a sock or a stocking cap and attaching the end to the top of your head.

    Use your fingers to stretch out the elastic band around the edge of the wig. Pull it on over your braids so that the braids are all underneath it. Lift up the wig hair in places and stick in bobby pins through the mesh to attach the wig to your head.
    • If you want, you can use double-sided fashion tape to secure the edge of the wig.
    • If you're planning on wearing a wig long-term, you can glue it on. However, if you've never done it before, you should have a professional show you how, as you don't want to get the glue in your own hair. Also, ask the stylist for product recommendations to ensure you choose the right type of adhesive. [21]

    Braid and pin your hair back first. Then, pull the wig cap on so it covers from your forehead to the top of your neck.

      Tips

      • Before putting up your hair for long-term wig wearing, wash your hair with a clarifying shampoo, which helps remove any excess product that's leftover in your hair. Rub it in thoroughly and rinse it out. [22]
        Thanks
        Helpful 0 Not Helpful 0
      • Apply a deep conditioner mask to protect your hair before wearing a wig for a long time. Your hair can dry out under a wig, so a deep conditioner is essential for keeping your hair healthy. [23]
        Thanks
        Helpful 0 Not Helpful 0
      • Detangle your hair by brushing or combing it out. You don't want a tangled mess under your wig. Run a brush through it to de-tangle it if your hair will tolerate it. Otherwise, use a large-tooth comb to pick any tangles out. [24]
        Thanks
