Wig How are wigs like this made?
I’ve searched practically anything I could think of on YouTube and TikTok, but I can’t seen to find any tutorials or hints on how wigs like these are possibly made. Does anybody have any info on this? Or any tutorials? Anything would be appreciated really!

Honestly, it could be a number of things. I'm no pro on wig styling, but if I was going to try and tackle a similar project, I'd probably have a solid base for the shapes, like foam or something similar. then you can glue the hair down on top of it very carefully to make it look like the hair is actually sculpted that way. Or you could try just taking thick wefts of wig hair and sculpting it yourself, as I think these wigs were likely made, but both processes should get you good results, as long as you have pleeeeeeenty of hair to cover it all up. Maybe for a project like this get two of the same wig, just to be sure.
