I found this on Youtube:

It's pretty much the same info I have in the handout I got at my wig making class. Here is the handout that I received in the wig making class. I have some hand written notes in the margin. Basically follow the steps:
starting knot # 4 on diagram
basic weft # 1 on diagram
ending knot # 5 on diagram
Numbers #2-3 are just really illustrating the continuation of step #1.
 Check it out! ------------- http://www.Godiva-Hair.com - http://www.Godiva-Hair.com http://www.MetamorphosisHairDesign.com - http://www.MetamorphosisHairDesign.com |

awesome!!!
it looks so easy!! i think i will try this! what a great way to custom blend your own color!!
what other line would you use instead of fishing line? would hair sewing thread work?
 many thanks!!aj ------------- "For I know the plans I have for you," says the Lord, "plans for good, and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope" Jer 29:11 |

| Not just regular sewing thread, it would break far too easily, I suggest you read the other weft making discussion here, there's plenty of info there about my experiments ;) |

I've made a few wefts for myself, and I used upholstry thread that you can buy in any sewing store.
I imagine some of the stronger beading threads like nymo, c-lon, or fireline would work too.
Keep a spray bottle and work with the human hair damp, it's more pliable when it's damp. ------------- http://www.Godiva-Hair.com - http://www.Godiva-Hair.com http://www.MetamorphosisHairDesign.com - http://www.MetamorphosisHairDesign.com |
