Designed to protect your edges, hold your wig in place, and create a smooth, natural base, this cap takes the stress out of wig prep. In this tutorial, we’ll walk you through how to apply it like a pro.
What You’ll Need
-
Clean hair or scalp
-
The Sheer-Skyn Wig Grip Cap
-
Wig of choice
-
Optional: brush, gel, balm for edges, or makeup/tint for crown area
1. Prep Your Hair or Scalp
Start with a clean surface.
-
If you have natural hair, braid or slick it back as flat as possible.
-
If you’re experiencing hair loss or have a bald scalp, gently cleanse and moisturize to ensure comfort under the cap.
2. Adjust the Hooks
The Sheer-Skyn Cap comes with adjustable hooks so you can customize the fit.
-
Tighten or loosen the band until it feels secure but not uncomfortable.
Why not velcro? Hooks are gentler on hair and edges, more durable than Velcro. It allows precise adjustment for a secure fit, feel lighter and less bulky under a wig, and are easier to keep clean. |
3. Put the Cap on Your Head
Slip the cap over your head, starting from the back and pulling forward.
-
Align the sheer section with your natural hairline.
-
Smooth out any bumps so the grip sits flat against your scalp.
4. Secure the Cap
This is what keeps your wig from slipping throughout the day:
-
Press down the grip band inside the cap so it hugs your scalp.
-
Make sure the cap sits evenly from front to back, with no loose areas.
-
If needed, use a small amount of hair wax, gel, or edge control around the hairline for extra hold.
Pro Tip: A properly secured wig grip cap should feel snug, but you should still be able to move and blink comfortably without tugging.
5. (Optional) Tint the Poly Crown Area
For an even more natural look, especially if you’re wearing a lace wig:
-
Apply lace tint, powder, or foundation to the poly crown area of the cap.
-
This helps the cap blend seamlessly with your skin tone under the wig.
6. Apply Your Wig
Now that the base is secure:
-
Place your wig over the Sheer-Skyn Cap, starting at the front and working backward.
-
Adjust until the lace sits naturally over the sheer section of the cap.
-
Style as desired!
