I sure hope you come back to make more videos! A trick for filming is to take a moment and mark your desk with painter's tape the whole perimeter that the camera has in focus. That way you can focus on your hands. You have the BEST tutorials on BJD on youtube, it is sad you've not gotten the following you deserve. You are missed here.

Emilia, I am so happy you decided to make videos! You are patient and do an excellent job of explaining yourself. We can see that perfectionist streak in you as you work on every detail! In the 2nd video, you ask if we would like to see how to correct mistakes. I would LOVE to see how you recover from them! Thank you again for sharing your artistry with us. Much love

I still find making parting really hard and often make mistakes that require patching up. Good thing about hot glue is that you can always reheat a messy parting, remove and redo it. I've actually redone the parting on most my early wigs because they were so dreadful. 😂

So glad you found it useful. I wish I had better footage about the weft making. Filmed this over a year ago, just ignoring the camera over my desk and it ran out of battery regularly as this is filmed over several days. I've taken more purposeful footage later on, but my spouse (who does the editing) is desperately moaning about the focus and wandering off camera in this early material. I'm so grateful he still likes the editing as I'm useless with computers.

Really lovely work. I can see that you would need an extra blank head, I would be afraid of the heat reacting with the resin and altering its colour. I’m definitely going to try your method. Thanks for sharing.

This is lovely! It's too bad I can't use this technique with hair that would melt, but if I ever do a wig with natural fibers I will definitely be using this method. I'm going to still try some of the techniques with a glue wig, or maybe using liquid latex. I'm sure I can figure something out for plastic hair. :D Thank you for sharing.

Did you develop this hairline technique on your own, or were you inspired by the drag community? Drag queens have been doing a very different but still incredibly similar technique on hard front wigs for decades! I'm absolutely in love with how many ways there are to do things, and how inspiration can come from so many unexpected places! Now I need to go make some more doll wigs! Thank you for the inspiration! 💜💜💜

I am a huge fan of the Dragrace, but had no idea! I have to look up their techniques to learn from them. Pretty much all I do is by trial and error. This hairline technique is awesome but it doesn't work for white hair at all (white hair turns transparent from the glue) so I'm just filming the making of a white updo wig with a different hairline style.

Hello ! une question : quel type de colle utilisez vous ? merciiiii
@barbararichards5118 3 жыл бұрын
Which type heat glue is used? High temp or low temp?
@EmiliaCouture 3 жыл бұрын
I use low temp glue as it stays softer and more flexible when hardened, both important characteristics for the wigs. I also find the small guns (that usually only get to 200 Celsius max.) to be safer to handle this close to fingers than the the large guns. I still have a scar on my left hand from a theatre set build 20 years ago, when I dropped a blob of glue from one of the industrial strength big gun straight on my index finger. Got a 3rd degree burn so I cannot really recommend them. Small guns and low temp, colourless and translucent, glue is better for the wig making.
@LaynieFingers 2 жыл бұрын
@@EmiliaCouture Wow, I can empathize. I have a scar on my left thumb from a high temp glue gun burn in 1991. A huge glob fell onto my thumb, almost onto the joint, and I ended up with a third degree burn as well. I don't recommend it! It definitely taught me to respect my tools, though!

I’ve watched your videos now a few times thank you I do see the details I see how you’re creating the hairline I love that you curve it as well to make it more realistic and you also have a tighter fit on the wig inside by not placing the hair on the inside of the week and folding it over like you said that looks like a cap aura it’s too thick looking it’s not realistic so I’m with you I like your approach a lot I appreciate it!!!Thank you for this wonderful tutorial and for your beautiful dolls!!!! I’m going to have to put them on my wish list!!!
