  • Using a mannequin head as your working station is an excellent idea while cutting wig hair. It is an easy way to mimic the human head.

Straightening the hair 

  • Using a comb, try to remove and frizzy ends and intertwined hair from your wig. This helps to ensure that your hair doesn’t get damaged while using the hot iron straightener.
  • With the help of the straightener, straighten out the hair on your wig. It is crucial to divide the hair into different layers and then work on those individual layers until all of the hair is straightened out. This makes your job a lot easier.

Cutting the bob

  • Using the Water dispenser, spray some water onto your natural human hair wig. Wet human hair is a lot easier to work with while cutting your hair.
  • Get the hair between your index finger and the middle finger, then cut out the hair using your scissors. This helps you to get a straight clean cut at the ends. It is essential to cut your hair in sections.
  • Start from the bottom of your hair and set your desired length for the bob hairstyle. Work your way from the bottom to the sides and then to the top.
  • Casually run the smaller scissors through your hair to remove any frizzy hair.

Styling

  • Wet the hair using the water dispenser spray.
  • Now using a blow dryer and comb set your wig in the desired bob style. Many women like a partition from the middle, but it is entirely up to you.
  • You can also curl the edges of your hair to get a more natural look.
