Beginners Wig Making


Virtual: $1850

Day 1
We teach beginner & advanced knotting techniques to give you a well-rounded understanding. These skills can be used for everyday wear, film, medical wigs, and men's hair replacement.
Core techniques include…

Wig Knotting: Single Knotting • Double Knotting • Single Strand Knotting • Multi Strand Knotting

Wig Knotting Patterns: Line Knotting (Directional Knotting) • Cross Knotting • Point Knotting • Glueless Hairline • Film Hairline • Bulk Knotting • Fringe Knotting • Repair Fast Fill • Hair Whorl • Hair Whorl W/ Lift

Whipping: (Precision sewing utilizing your wig knotting/hair ventilating needle): • Single Whip •Double Whip • Pull Whip • Edge Whip • Weft Whip


Day 2
Wig Foundations and Re-fronting:

We teach how to take a stock wig or foundation and replace the undesirable hairline knotted onto thick factory lace with transparent or Swiss lace. These wigs are typically knotted with bulky double split knots, leading to time-consuming knot bleaching and hairline tweezing to achieve a natural look.

Our goal is for you to replace those areas entirely, allowing for film-standard results where each strand is knotted individually with intent, creating natural growth patterns.

Knotting each strand individually might seem daunting, but once you learn the technique, it's very repetitive like knitting or crocheting.
A good podcast or Netflix queue, and you’ll forget you’re knotting.


Wig Repairs


Repairs are a great introduction into the commercial wig world. While not everyone can afford to spend thousands on wigs, there is a large audience for repairs.

Traditional everyday wigs, Sheitels, medical wigs, and men's hair systems repairs are an immediate service you can offer after completing the beginners wig making workshop studio session.

We will walk you through how to create a pricing system that works for your local area or mail-in services, along with how to promote and create wig building content to curate your personal niche or energize your current base. Additionally, we provide website building recommendations and resources.
