So my sheitel macher pointed out that in the parting, theres a part thats nearly a rip..
She doesnt repair these things...

Anyone know if these things can usually be repaired??

I know someone whose skintop ripped and she had to get a brand new wig.
My wig is only anout 2.5 years old, I know it has been stretched because I used to use a big wig head to out it on at night, but I really hope it can be fixed...

Thanks so much.

I had that recently. They sewed new hair where us was torn and then I had it lined so it won’t tear as easily. It would’ve costed 1000+ to switch the lace and hair. This was less then 300

Thanks.

What do you mean lined?
The whole top of my net has been lines with velvet , from when I first bought it.

Bump.

I just had it done.
The woman glued it and Iv had to change the parting to cover it.
But I have to be very delicate with it.

Just wondering if anyone has had this??

P.s its not a lace. Im talking about the white bit in the parting.

when putting the sheitle on a sheitel head never put pins in the top. only on the side. a lot of holes and rips happen when ppl put pins on the top.

Message someone who does repairs on all brands. I know Milano does. Maybe they have a suggestion and /or can refer you to someone in the UK.

I had this once, I had someone sew a patch and it was fine. But I did it by someone that makes Sheitals so she knew what she was doing. Glue sounds strange to me.

Thanks.

The lady said if she would sew it , it wouldnt work. Would just make it worse , think cos there was nothing to hold it together.

Im bumping this up if their happens to be a professional sheitel macher or someone who repairs on here.

I sent a picture to Sm I bought it from and she said she has never seen so bad. Something must have happened..?
Not repairable unless replace the skintop.

Im going crazy. Ita not even 3 years old.
So upset.

If anyone has advice pls reply or pm.

Hi,

Would love some advice.

Need my wig dyed and shaitel macher really does not want to do it because she said it will prpbably make the rip ladder and tear.

Im so frustrated.
It was an expensive wig 3+ yrs old and its basically a goner.

Like I can wear it until it just goes..

What do you need advice on? She’s right it will tear more. It’s super frustrating but the skin top cannot be repaired. You can do a cap transfer where they take the rest of the wig and put it on a new cap. Idk how much it costs but definitely not as much as a new wig and if the wig means so much to you it might be worth the investment.
