•Prepare Your Scalp:Start with a clean scalp. Wash your hair and scalp thoroughly to remove any dirt, oils, or residues.Optionally, use a scalp protector to create a barrier between your skin and the adhesive. This can help prevent irritation and make the wig easier to remove later.
•Trimming (if necessary):If the toupee wig is too large or has excess lace, trim it to fit your hairline. Be cautious and trim small amounts at a time to avoid cutting too much.
•Apply Adhesive:Choose between wig glue or tape based on your preference and the type of toupee wig.For wig glue: Apply a thin layer of adhesive directly onto your scalp using a small brush or applicator. Spread it evenly where the toupee wig will sit.For wig tape: Cut the tape into smaller strips or use pre-cut pieces. Peel off the backing and carefully place the tape along the perimeter of your hairline.
•Position the Toupee:Carefully place the toupee wig onto your scalp, starting from the front hairline and working your way back. Press down gently to secure it in place.
•Adjust and Secure:Use a comb or your fingers to gently press the edges of the toupee wig into the adhesive or tape. Ensure there are no air bubbles or gaps.If using wig tape, press firmly along the edges to ensure a strong hold.
•Style as Desired:Once the toupee wig is securely in place, style it as you would your natural hair. Use a comb or brush to blend it with your existing hair if necessary.
•Final Touches:Check in the mirror to ensure the toupee wig looks natural and is securely attached.If needed, use alcohol wipes or cotton pads with alcohol to clean up any excess adhesive around the edges.
