    I say this with all love and zero hate, I love seeing white women embracing wigs! I hope that we can normalize wearing wigs ☺️

    • @missvoorhees7964
      @missvoorhees7964 Před 10 měsíci +1

      ​@brittaniwashington5001 except white women are told not to wear wigs because its "cultural appropriation".

      Yaay!! I love to hear that. I freaking love wigs. My friend was all worried that people would think she was silly for being a white girl wearing wigs. I was like, the only people who would think that prob never wore one before. And I totally agree, the best way to begin normalizing something is to do it regularly!! ❤❤

    I honestly needed this tutorial so much. Ear tabs are why I can’t wear my wigs! ❤ I love the look on you it looks incredibly natural 🥰

  • @kbjazzfan
    @kbjazzfan Před 5 lety +19

    I could have used this video about 2 weeks ago, lol! I did this with an old wig just to see how it would work. It made it so much more comfortable to wear with glasses. I don’t get that pressure from the ear tabs any more. Looks great! (I want this wig so badly, too!)

  • @susansantos1891
    @susansantos1891 Před rokem +3

    I have the same problem with my wigs, I have a small football shaped head, I am going to cut my tabs off on my least favorite wig and see how it turns out. Thank you for putting this kind of info on how to customize your wigs. Please keep making these types of videos, there is not a lot of information out there that can help us folks that wear wigs. ☺️👍🏼

  • @lhall200626
    @lhall200626 Před 5 měsíci +1

    Thank you so much!! I was about to stop wearing my wig because of the pain and discomfort that the ear tabs caused my ears. Lifesaver and wig saver 😊

  • @laurenjeanvp5131
    @laurenjeanvp5131 Před rokem +5

    Thank you SOOOOOO MUCH for this video, I bought my 3rd belle tress wig and this one had one ear tab super big!!! I've never cut them off before so I was freaking out that I would cut it and the wig completely fall apart lmao! But it worked and looks so much better. Thanks again!!!

  • @klavishavideos
    @klavishavideos Před 4 lety +18

    Thank you so much for this video! I have used your instructions to give eartabectomies to two of my wigs - a definite improvement! More comfortable, I can put my hair behind my ears now, and my glasses earpieces fit better.

    I love it, and the color and style looks great on you! What wig?! Your natural roots blend seamlessly with the root color of the wig. You really can't tell where your hair stops and the wig starts! BEAUTIFUL! Thank you so much for this tutorial! It is most definitely needed!

  • @thenaturalmd
    @thenaturalmd Před 2 lety +3

    This is exactly what I need to do for my exact same wig. I have a big head and a 14 inch ear to ear and this wig is still too large ear to ear. I have been scratching my head trying to decide what to do to it. This is it! thank you so much.

  • @gailsoliani5232

    I am definately going to try this on my new human hair wig. Its the only wig that had ear tabs that fit tight against my hearing aid tubes and glasses making it very uncomfortable after a while. Thank you so much for this video! And yes I like the natural look you get with the bio hair and dark rooted coloring in your wig, like the color too LOL.

  • @marleneolson3008
    @marleneolson3008 Před 4 lety +2

    Will this work for a wig that is too large? I bought 2 wigs on eBay and they are both great! One fits perfect (avg) but the other one is too big (large). I can still wear it, I’ll just use extra clips and pins. I must have weird shaped ears too because I have a problem with ear tabs on all wigs - I end up tucking the ear tab behind my ear since I like to tuck some hair behind my ear. Not very comfortable. Both wigs are short, too.

    Looks brilliant! Just one question, is that wig long enough to be tied back? Or os it too short to wear in a pony tail?
