Glam Punk Wig Styling Tutorial

Today, we are excited to show you how to take your aesthetic to the next level with our Glam Punk wig styling tutorial.

We’ll be working with a stunning lace front wig, guiding you through every step to transform it into a voluminous masterpiece. You can expect to master our specialized “tie and flip” technique to create those iconic, poofy segments, and secure it with bobby pins from crown to tip. We’ll show you how to keep things professional by smoothing down frizz for a sleek shape and twisting those front sections into place with plenty of hairspray to make sure your style stays perfect for longer.

Don’t forget to get creative with accessories to really make the look your own! Click the video below to watch and follow along with our step-by-step instructions.

Step 1: Secure the Bangs

Start by gently brushing the hair and separating the bangs from the rest of the wig. A hair clamp works great here, but feel free to use anything comparable around the house.

Step 2: Put a Bow On It

Taking sections of hair around the top, bring them all upward, using the handle of your brush or comb to section each area, and tie them together to create almost a bow you’d see on a present. You are a gift, after all!

Step 3: Making My Way Downtown

Time to repeat the process. Continue sectioning pieces of the hair and tying them together to match the top bow. Secure each bow with some bobby pins for extra hold, and you should have essentially a ribbon of hair trailing down. Be sure to carefully smooth each area down to reduce any frizz from all the movement.

Step 4: Brush It, Twist It, Spray It

Back to the front now. Unclip the bangs, give them another upward brush, and a twist to get some curl out of them, and add some hairspray to give it some hold while taking advantage of the length of the bangs to help accentuate the front curl.

Step 5: Take a Look!

Now you got the look to make every leather clad biker at the bar turn their heads. Sport an outfit with some spikey bracelet accessories, leather chaps, and some good old fashioned black boots, and you’re set for a glam look that can’t be messed with.

The “poofy” segments are created by taking small sections of hair, tying them up, and then flipping them to build volume.
