How to Block a Wig

Blocking a wig is an essential step in wig maintenance and styling. Blocking involves securing a wig onto a specially shaped block when it’s not in use. Enroll in this class to learn how to block a wig like a pro!

Blocking your wig is an essential part of wig customization, styling, and storage. It is a method used to maintain the original size of the wig and ensure it keeps its shape over time. When a wig is not in use, blocking helps to protect the wig and the delicate lace material. This process is particularly crucial for lace front wigs because the delicate lace at the front of the wig needs extra care to prevent damage. By properly securing the wig, you can ensure that your wig stays in top condition for longer periods of time.

Here are the benefits of blocking your wig:

  1. Shape and Structure: Blocking involves shaping the wig on a specialized wig block. This ensures that the wig maintains its intended shape and structure. Without proper blocking, the wig may appear misshapen or ill-fitting.
  2. Hair Lace Protection: The wig block not only maintains the wig’s shape but also protects the delicate hair lace during the dressing process. Hair lace is the fine material that holds the individual hair strands in place. Stretching the lace can damage it, affecting the overall quality of the wig.
  3. Professional Results: A well-blocked wig exudes professionalism and ensures satisfied clients.
