How to sew an elastic band to secure your wigs?

  • Step 1

Measure the perimeter of your head (i.e. the distance between your left and right ears) using the elastic band.

  • Step 2

Cut the elastic band to the length measured without stretching it.

  • Step 3

Place the elastic band along the curve of the wig.

  • Step 4

Sew the edges of the band to each side of the wig in the same position as the ear tabs.

Tip: Resist the urge to sew the band too tightly, otherwise you may be left with an uncomfortable fit. For a perfect fit, fold the band up by as many inches as needed for a secure but still comfortable fit. If the wig starts to feel too tight later on, you can simply unfold until comfortable.
