- Wig over long locs tutorial, Goodies! For real this time 😂 two years ago I made a video of my first time ever putting a wig over my locks as an experiment. A lot of people were upset by it LOL! Here’s the link if you want a good laugh • How I Fit My Long Locs...
This video shows how to do prep your locs under a wig. I managed to create a grid that keeps the wig as flat as possible so you don’t look like a bobble head! It’s great for those of you who may want to wear a wig for Halloween and/or cosplay. There’s nothing wrong with experimenting with your hair 🥰 I hope you all enjoy ❤️ - Krátké a kreslené filmy
Some tips! :)
- Longer, thicker locs? Consider a wig with more volume (like the second wig in this video, afro, etc.) instead of a bone straight wig
- Longer, thicker locs, newer locs with thicker ends? Try smaller flat twists. I did 12. Maybe try 14-20
- Twists are easier (for me) to do than braids.
- Twists are easier to compress than braids.
- Twists are more malleable; they’re easier to bend at the ends than braids.

Yyooyyyyyyyooyoy
I don't know who Halle and Chloe use for a hairstylist but whoever puts their wigs over their locs are magicians.
Yes! I didn't think it was possible. My locs are waist length. I want to try something different, but im not cutting my locs. Thank u! 😊
So glad you found this helpful! Definitely let me know how it goes if you give it a try 😊
Same mine are in the middle of my back tho. I'm going to def try it.
I am an actress and I've been struggling going back and forth in my mind whether or not I should cut my locs off so I can wear wigs to have a better chance at auditions. I'm so glad that I came across this video, now I don't have to cut my locks and I feel relieved. Thank you 💗
Yessss girl this is the only thing that's stopped me from getting locs
First of all you’re gorgeous. Skin is popping & glowing. Locs are flawless & thanks for the tutorial.
✨✨✨
Now imagine all the braid patterns you can do with a frontal/full lace wig... in love with my locs in a totally new way! I needed this so BAHD 🤩📘📚🥰🆙️
Amazing, at first I was skeptical but it came out really beautiful.
omg, how did i just come across this now?? thank you so much!!! love the technique of bringing them back up through the parted twisted sections to lay flat!!! that is genius!!!
I wouldn't mind seeing more segments about this.
Ohhh how does a wig try on haul sound?
@@ImaniGoodridge yessss girl!
Wow! I have been wanting to try diff looks for the longest. Didn't know I could do this. Thank you! I'm gonna try.
I love this. I'm loced down my back. I love your video. I put on my first wig. ☺
Thank you for this video. I gave away a bunch of (good) wigs some years ago when I had traditional locs. I have since installed sisterlocs but missed my wigs for my incognito days.
Guess I’ll be back in the wig game again! 🙏🏾
Those wigs look so good on you 😍! Thanks for the tutorial I have very long locks like you but the size of thick yarn.this helps since I have a world of wigs I've never used or worn yet that im dying to wear.
Thank you so much 🥺❤️ And yessss let me know how it goes if/when you try it out! 🥰
I’m going to a gala and thinking about wearing a wig for a different look. Glad I found this video, will be trying. Thanks!
Yeah I want to do something different as well I’m gonna start doing wigs sometimes. I have long dreads that are to my back. They aren’t too thick but their a good size and I always wondered if people with dreads could do wigs now I know. Thanks for this video❤️
Thanks. I have Sisterlocks and have been wanting to try this!
Fantastic! I love the versatility. And your makeup is gorgeous
Love this! Thanks I will be trying. Sisterlocks x 16 years!
I’m so happy I found this ❤ thanks!
Omg, my locs are down to my bottom and I have been wanting to change it up sometimes, you did a great job, ty
Love it, thanks heading to beauty supply tomorrow
Okay now this is what I’m talking about 🥰🥰🥰🥰❤️‼️
Thank you for this, I have volumous microlocs. Though they arent as long as yours, due to the volume Ive always struggled with the helmet look whenever I tried to wear wigs (most because id pick the wrong type of wig). You saved me!!
Love the wigs you look beautiful either way❤️🥰🥰🥰
Love this thank you for sharing!!
Omg, your dreads are GORGEOUS ✨💕✨
I can’t wait to try this out😁
Let me know how it goes! 🤎
😮😮😮 girl this is life !! My lox are waist length and thick !! I can’t wait to try this! I’ve had so many Cosplays I wanted to do !!
Hi, did you try it?
So so pretty!
Thank you for this. I am a performer and wear wigs. Now that my locs are getting longer I was struggling.
Thanks! Very detailed.
There's no way I could do this because I have a tender scalp. I always wear my hair down. My locs are the same length as yours. Your hair is so pretty! Thanks for the video.
Where can I get this curly wig?love it
I’ve never worn a wig before, I didn’t think it would look right with locs, but okay. I’m not cutting my locs but I want to give them a break. I like feeling free and giving my hair fresh air, for growth. I also don’t like gels or edge control because of the build up, and it doesn’t work with my hair texture. How do you scratch your scalp wearing a wig though? I like that you made it look so flat on your head with all that hair. That Bob wig is the only wig style I would wear, very nice taste. Beautiful!
Perfect, thank you so much... very detailed new subbie here
Great job! I am going to try it!
YAY! Let me know if it works for you ❤️
Cute wigs. Both look great on you!
Thank you! ✨
This is a great method! Do my love have to be micro or sista locs to wear wigs?
You are just to Cute love the different looks. I will have to try this, just for a temporary change , thanks for sharing
Aw thank you! So as you enjoyed the video ☺️
VERY, helpful, thanks so much
Been wanting to figure out how to do this forever!!! Not sure how it's going to work out for me, though, because my sisterlocks are knee to calf length, but I'm definitely gonna give it a try!!
Knee to calf length?!?!? Godspeed 😩😂 Your hair must take forever to air dry. I’d be interested in knowing how it goes!
@@ImaniGoodridge Doesn’t take that long at all! I live in the Gulf South so all I have to do is walk outside on a sunny day and within the hour I’m dry. (I’ve also thought about hanging my hair out the car window on the way to work, but it might make too many cars wreck from the stares. LOL!!!!!)
I’m actually having a hard time finding some of those extra large wig caps down here and so far, *no* wigs with extra large caps. If you know of a company that sells any online, I’d appreciate the tip.
I love the bob
Girl thank you this the best method I seen so far and I been looking for yrs
Where did you buy your wig cause the ones I found are always too small
Could you try a pixie cut wig ?
Watched this yesterday and tried it today right before work. I have locs that are a little thicker but about the same length as yours. When I tell you the twists did it....HONEY! I had some haters today at work. 😂😂😂 Cuz they know I have locs and my wig install looked better than theirs. 😂
SN: I haven't had a retwist in a few months so I have some loose new growth. I pulled some of it forward and flat ironed it and left that part out of the wig cap. Then I pulled the loose hair back over the top of the half wig and put some hair clips and a headband over the space where my hair blended into the wig. People were saying it looks like my natural hair. Thank you for sharing this method. ❤
These are the comments I live for!🥹 I’m so glad my video was helpful. And that was so smart to do what you did with your loose natural hair to help blend. Wish I could’ve seen what the haters saw; I know you ate them up!!🤪🥰
Do you have a link to the wigs you bought?
Thank you for the video! I have wondered how to do this.
Glad you enjoyed the video! ❤️
Lawdy… you making me wish my traditionals was micro 😭😂
Do you buy a large cap?
Does it itch
Oh my goodness. All I wanna say is BLACK WOMEN, I LOVE YOU!
I have lower back length thick traditional locs. I’m going to be mystique for Halloween/cosplay.
This will sound strange but your forehead is perfect!!
LOL this cracked me up ❤️
I could not do this at all. My braids are just too thick 😭😭(medium box braids) 💔I want to switch up my hair lately but I don’t want to take them out yet
I thought that the twist look so cute
This is sooooo much better than your first video of how to tuck your dreadlocks under a wig. You had an ANT shape (hump) in the back of that first video and on this video with the short wig, and on both videos your dreads in the front were still exposed…A for effort and again much better than that first video.
"Good DAYSSYSYS "
you look so much like Skye Jackson!!!!
LOL I get this often
You are freakin gorgeous
Thanks! I'm gonna test out the theory: will I get more "play" from black men like I did before locks! It's a running theory among my natural hair group
Tik Tok brought me here
Ahhh happy you found me! ☺️
You look way more beautiful with your sister locks than with those silly looking wigs 😀
I prefer my natural hair and have since the beginning of my 14+ year sisterlocks journey. I just made this video for people who would like to know that it's an option. People may opt to wear a wig over their locs for many reasons: to test a different hair color before dyeing their real hair, try new styles if contemplating cutting off their locs, cosplay/Halloween costumes, etc. :)
