The official Elvira wig style is achieved with a base net cut and sewn into the shape of a dome. The synthetic hair fibers are aligned in rows or tracks starting at the front hairline. The fibers face forwards to form bangs and change direction at the dome and face backwards over the dome and face sideways to fall on each side of the face and head. Because the wig comes in a box it is pressed flat for an extended period of time after being made, the foundation netting of the wig is permanently folded which prevents the dome from staying round and full. To keep the round shape of the bouffant portion of the hair it's best to insert a support material inside the wig before wearing. Black foam padding cut to fit is best. In a pinch even black wadded up tissue paper will work.

Remove the wig from the box and stuff the tissue or trimmed foam padding into the dome of the wig. Place it on a Styrofoam wig head and pin it at the hairline in front and at the base in back. Gently comb with a wide-toothed wig comb. The basis of the Elvira hair-style is a teased bouffant with a soft feathered outer layer of hair to give it a smooth look. The center of the style above the bangs feathers out from the center in the front back over the top, sides and down over the bangs. For reference photos visit www.elvira.com

How do you get a synthetic wig straight?

To put the wig on straight, first pin your hair back from the forehead in a smooth line. Keep a tiny bit of bang to blend into the hairline of the wig. Now, find the center stay of the wig cap. If it does not have a stay, put the two sides together to find the center top of the wig. Put your finger and thumb there and while putting the cap on, keep that point in your fingers. Where your fingers are is where the middle of the wig is, so place that point in a line directly above the bridge of your nose. Now pin the wig on the front side so that it won't move. THEN you pull the rest of the wig down, but the front has to be pinned down first. Secure the back and the wig will be straight. Carefully brush the wisps over the line of the wig cap if you left it out, and you're set to go!
