I wear a hair system to cover over my balding head and was wondering what was involved in making a hair system; consequently, I purchased this book after doing an online evaluation of books on wig making. What a treasure this book is for anyone wanting to know about wig making, as well as someone who actually wants to do it. I was so inspired by the documentation that I actually purchased all the tools needed (canvas head, good quality lace, human hair, ventilating tools and a fine scissors). I watched several youtube videos (as well as the ones by Ruskai and group on their website) and started ventilating my lace cap. It took a while for me to get the hang of it but I thoroughly enjoyed making my own toupee. It looks as good as the ones I purchased from a wig maker. I will probably continue making my own toups from this point on.I will not repeat all of the good comments others have made on this superb book, but will emphasize that it comes with a lot of clearly written directions, excellent illustrations and good references. I talked extensively with Gabriel at De Meo brothers in New Jersey, suppliers of high quality hair and lace netting for professionals in the film industry and the theatre, and he agreed that this is THE book one should get in order to proceed with this venture.I like that this edition is now in hard cover that is wire bound (Wire O Binding). This is accomplished by gluing the last, thick page of the book onto the heavy, glossy back cover so that the whole book is held onto the cover by means of the last page. The front is not bound to the hard cover at all. This enables the reader to open the book so that it lies completely flat on your work surface. HOWEVER, be very careful not to turn the front cover back onto the back cover (like you would with some spiral bound documents) as this will cause the book to completely separate from the hard cover. It took me awhile to re-join the two and I did damage some of the holes. In order to prevent this from happening again, I will run a wire to completely close over the gap in the Wire O binding at the back of the book where the pages may escape.A better way of binding this book would be to use a spiral (rather than Wire O) binding that penetrates holes in the front and back covers, making it impossible for the two to separate. It would not look as nice as the present binding, but it would permit one to completely open that book so only one page is viewed at a time. Plus, this would make for a much sturdier binding that will last much longer than the Wire O binding. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Everything needed to know to get started in the wonderful world of wigs. *by M***Y on Reviewed in the United States on April 7, 2018* Phenomenal read and sets you on the right track for professional wig making. I suggest getting the next Volume for in depth styling techniques through the ages (I purchased Victorian to Present), as this book focuses more on the basic foundations of caring for, washing, storing, steaming and even building wigs. I personally was up to speed with most of the chapters, but there were amazing details about adding lacefront to hardfront wigs and ventilating/lace and hair direction and head measurements and tracings. It’s like my new bible for ventilating. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wonderfully detailed photos and description of the ventilation process as ... *by N***. on Reviewed in the United States on August 31, 2015* Wonderfully detailed photos and description of the ventilation process as well as many other techniques and terms used in the business. A comprehensive text that I plan to refer to a lot in the future. I also recommend Allison Lowery's other two other texts entitled Historical Wig Styling. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/2045796-wig-making-and-styling-a-complete-guide-for-theatre-film](https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/2045796-wig-making-and-styling-a-complete-guide-for-theatre-film) --- *Product available on Desertcart Argentina* *Store origin: AR* *Last updated: 2026-05-24*
