Kendall Wig By Henry Margu

Kendall is part of the Premium Synthetic from Henry Margu. It is a very fashionable style that we have seen the celebrities rock on the red carpet over the past months. It is a gorgeous wig with very soft feminine  waves falling just on the shoulders. It features modern beachy waves that frame the face perfectly.  The cap consists of a Mono top and Lace front with a wefted back.

The mono top gives the wearer the option to style the wig with a part on either side or in the middle.  It gives the illusion of the hair coming out directly from the scalp.  The lace front gives the wearer virtually an invisible hairline.  These features contribute to making the wig look realistic.  Many of the colours available have the darkened roots.

Below is a video to see exactly how the wig looks like straight out of the box.

How is a Wig Made?

Isabella_Front_830RES  How is a Wig Made?

 

Wigs are made all over the world but most mass produced wigs are made in countries like China, Indonesia and India. Countries like Australia have very high labour costs which makes wigs very expensive.  Countries in Asia have much lower wages costs hence making it much more affordable for the average client to afford a wig.  It is amazing how from a few strands of hair that is made into a weft and with quite a lot of work, a wig is created.

 

Below are some images where you can see how a wig starts with the raw products of hair, lace, monofiliament fabric, skin tops and a few more items.  There is some machinery that helps with each stage but it is very labour intensive.  There is a real art to making  a good quality wig.  Below are some of the things we saw that were all part of the process.

DSCN0911Collection of Hair and Bundling:  Hair is collected  and prepared for manufacturing.  Hair is arranged so it is lying in all the same direction.  The hair is brushed against a hackle quite a few times which is just a large wire brush that is clamped to a table. It keeps the hair smooth and untangled as well as drawing out any small hairs. ( You can see on the left what a Hackle looks like)

 

 

Washing & Sterilising Hair : The hair DSCN0957is inspected to make sure it is clean and they will sterile the hair. The hair is gently and thoroughly hand washed in basins in soapy water with disinfectant. They are rinsed a few times to make sure there is no residue of soap.  Then the hair is  allowed to air dry or put in warmer ovens specifically for hair.

 

DSCN0916Making Wefts  :For a wefted wig, the hair is sewn onto a weft by machine.  The wefts are then made up into a wig.  Depending on the type of wig they are making there are different steps.  Some wigs are made with a lace cap while others are have a mono top or a skin top.

 

 

Making a Skin top:  Here you can see how a skin top has hair punched into it by machine.  You can see in the second photo that the hair needs to be trimmed on the inside of the wig.  After it is trimmed they place a special glue to keep it all intact.  Then it can be inserted into the rest of the wig.  Others have a mono top which is a fine monofilament mesh that the hair is tied individually onto to give the wearer a realistic look.

DSCN0927 DSCN0925 DSCN0928DSCN0931

 

These are just a few of the processes hat it takes to make a wig.  Seeing the process makes you appreciate all the work it takes to make a wig and most of it is done by hard manual labour by very talented craftsmen.

Qingdao – Wig Producing City – Part 2

We explored Qingdao last week. So now I want to share a little about the visit to a  wig factory which I won’t name the company but I will say I was very impressed.  Everything was organised into separate rooms for each task.  Starting from the collection of hair and the processes consisting of washing, sterilizing the hair and dyeing it to suit the style required. Then making the wefts that would be sewn into lace and then made into wigs.  And the final stage was the hairdressers at the end who cut all wigs by hand. This is why the same wig sometimes can be slightly different in lengths and style.  It is not made by a machine it is hand made.

This experience really made me see how much work is gone into the wigs to get a finished product.  I really appreciated the differences between different qualities and the work that  goes into making a quality product.  Sometimes wigs can differ a little simply because they are created by hand and not by a machine.

I can truly say I learnt first hand how mono tops are created, how hair is sewn on together to make wefts and the final product.  All wigs are started with strands of hair and they are beautifully put together to make a quality hair piece or wig. I really appreciated how much work goes into the final product.

Below are a few pictures that can help you see that wig making is truly an art.

The Next Blog will show how some of the components of wigs are made.  Its truly amazing.
