How to Pluck a Part in a Wig?

pluck a part?

When you get a hair wig from the store, it's not prep-plucked and you want to pluck it into the way you like. How to pluck a part so that the synthetic hair looks more natural? Here I would sort out two main methods for your choice.

Before plucking the part, you have to make some preparations as follows:

1.
Dampen the hair roots using some water so that it's easy for you to decide where to part.

Flatten the hair with a scarf and wait around 10 minutes. You can also use a hot iron to do this.


2.
Now, let's get ahead to the second main step-pluck a part. Here are two main methods.

A. Cut a Part


When you have done with the preparations, put the wig on a mannequin head and use a comb to part the top of the hair wig to make a potential part. In this way, you would know where to cut. 
Cut with an eyebrow razor


Start from the very front of the wig, and use your eyebrow razor to trim the hair out.  Take your time and do it slowly, because you don't want to over-cutting or destroy the lace base.

B. Tweeze a Part 

If you don't like to use a sharp razor to cut your hair, you can use a tweezers to pull the hair out.

Likewise, put the wig on a mannequin head first. 

Part the hair so that you can know where to tweeze.

tweezing a part

Use the tweezers and start tweezing at the very front and make the way to the back of the wig.

Make sure the tweezers is downward when you use it. Open the tweezers, grab a piece of hair at the base of the wig, shut the tweezers and pull the hair out.

Remember when you are tweezing the very front of the hair, just pull a few pieces of hair out in order to avoid over-tweezing. Once you over-tweeze it, you can't get it back. So make sure you take it slowly and pull small pieces at a time.

3.
After you pluck a part using one of the above methods, you need a finishing step to make the look more natural.

Use the concealer to conceal the part so that it looks more natural. You can apply the foundation or concealer either under the lace or just put it above the lace. 

powder/liquid concealer

If you are a beginner, you can use the powder concealer instead of a liquid concealer. The former is easier to get off.

And now it's done.
