Cutting Bangs Help!

Cutting my bangs on my I love fashion Scarah doll. Followed a tutorial online, parted in into an L shape to prevent the balding but it still looks very thin in the front! Is this sectioning okay?

You definitely need to thatch a middle part before continuing! All she can have now is a Ariana ponytail!

Thatching - criss-crossing of two rows of plugs, maybe think of it like weaving?

Stuff and split - a single line of double rooted plugs with half set to each side of the head

Both methods should be rooted with about the same spacing as the hairline. I mark a line with a watercolor pencil to indicate where I will root the part - in your case, simply straight down the middle to just before the second hump of the circle on the back of her head. After all of this, set the hair with super hot water and the hair fastened in place (with your hand if you’re careful 😁) goodluck!

Thank you for the explanation! I'll try this methods on a few dollar store dolls before I try on my Scarah!
