You can also do all of the hair first or sew the cap to the head before starting the hair. I think it&#8217;s best if you try what suits your workflow.<\/p>\n<p>Ty the hair to the wig cap as follows: Cut about 20cm long pieces of brown cotton. Knot one strand into each crochet stitch in the first row as you see in picture 2. For doing so you pull a loop through the top loops of the stitch. Then you pull the ends through that loop and thus fasten the strand. Knot one strand to each stitch in the second row, too (this time you do not work through the top loops but around the hdc). In the other rows you work one strand into each 3rd hdc. Knot 5-6 short strands to the front in order to form the fringe. In the end you comb through the hair. I always have to do that several times before the hair does not look straggly anymore (see picture 4).<\/p>\n<p>Now you start doing the hairstyle:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/flauscheinhorn.mareikeschumacher.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/img_5447.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-527 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/flauscheinhorn.mareikeschumacher.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/img_5447.jpg\" alt=\"img_5447\" width=\"2048\" height=\"2048\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Do a very high pony tail and fasten it with a bit of yarn. Leave out one skein on each side. Pull the queue through the brown crochet hairband as seen in picture 1. Ty a bit of yarn around the middle. Cut hair about 3 cm above the crochet hairband. Spread the hair into all directions as seen in picture 2. Fold down the crochet hairband and stuff the ends of the hair underneath the upper layer of the crochet hairband. As you can see in picture 3 this does not yet look very accurate. This is why I use a normal hairband to fasten the hair as you see in picture 4.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/flauscheinhorn.mareikeschumacher.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/img_5449.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-526 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/flauscheinhorn.mareikeschumacher.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/img_5449.jpg\" alt=\"img_5449\" width=\"2048\" height=\"2048\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Put the white crochet hairband around the bun and button it up. Take one of the side skeins, comb it through and place it diagonal over the head as seen in picture 3. Put the ends under the white crochet hairband. Then do the same with the other skein (pics 2 and 4). At the end comb the fringe into form with a wet comb. Then wetten the whole hairstyle a bit. The wetted cotton can be retuned a bit when one end or another sticks out. Put it onto the heating to let it dry.<\/p>\n<p>Done:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/flauscheinhorn.mareikeschumacher.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/img_5450.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-528 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/flauscheinhorn.mareikeschumacher.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/img_5450.jpg\" alt=\"img_5450\" width=\"2048\" height=\"2048\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are moments in life, when you think you will never, ever do again what you are doing right now.
