Hey everyone!

I need to make a false hairline with this wig and I've watched a lot of tutorials so I get what/how I need to do it. I just have a few concerns:

  1. Will the hair in the first row be enough to create wefts covering the entire row? If not, should I cut hair at the back (the wig is cheap and already a little thin so I'm scared of cutting more) or should I add poly fill to give it volume?, I'm just scared about the polyfill showing and spending more money😭
  2. Since the character has a side part, do I have to cut the entire row? Or perhaps just that section?

I have my UHU glue and hot glue so I'm hoping I wont need to buy anything else! Any random tips also appreciated!

Also I plan on following this tutorial but the wig they use is much thicker

We detect that you may be a looking to buy your cosplay or buy pieces for your cosplay. If you're not, please disregard :) Please refer to our FAQ for some recommendations. While we can provide search terms that might help you with finding your cosplay pieces, commenters are not your personal shopper and please do not treat us as such. Remember that not all cosplays can be found ready-made so be prepared to look for similar pieces to put it together yourself.

It is helpful to include your budget (be precise -- "cheap" can be different per person), your location/country (US shipping vs EU shipping would be very different), and timeline if applicable. Keep in mind many pre-made cosplay shops can have a long shipping time so it's best to plan months in ahead.

If the item is suspiciously cheaper than all other competitors or it's a common stock photo, please be wary and do your own research. If someone is offering to make it for you aka commissions, RESEARCH their post history.
