How to wear a V part wig and get that seamless, salon-worthy finish at home? When you already have a super trendy V part wig in the glueless wigs series but have zero clue how to install it—stick with me. No complicated steps, no unnecessary products, just two simple, foolproof methods to present you with an effortless, natural-looking hairstyle in minutes. By the end of this guide, you’ll be putting on your V part wigs like a pro and turning heads wherever you go.
Method 1: How to Wear A No leave-out V Part Wig?
The “No Leave Out” v part wig installation method is perfect for a quick, protective, and sleek install. It completely covers your natural hair, eliminating the need to consider the texture blend between your natural hair and the extensions, thus minimizing heat and styling damage.
Step-by-Step Guide:
Step 1: Simply Braid Your Hair
Start with clean, dry hair. Part your hair straight down the middle; this middle part will remain visible and uncovered, creating a natural-looking parting. Then create flat braids or cornrows going back. They don’t need to be fancy. The goal is to keep everything flat and secure under the wig.
Step 2: Adjust Anti-slip Elastic Band
Before fully putting on the v part wig, take a moment to adjust the built-in anti-slip elastic band at the back of the wig cap. Secure it comfortably at the nape of your neck, firmly but not too tightly. This strap will ensure that you can move comfortably throughout the day without worrying about the wig falling off.
Step 3: Position the V Part Wig With Clips
Place the V part wig on your head, lining up the V opening with your middle part area and frontal hairline. Open the built-in clips and gently snap them onto your braids. First, secure the clips at the V-shaped opening, and then secure the clips above the ears on both sides.
Step 4: Adjust the Drawstring
Use the adjustable strap at the back to customize the fit. This step matters more than people think. A well-fitted cap keeps the wig from shifting and helps it look more natural throughout the day.
Method 2: How to Wear A leave-out V Part Wig?
This method creates the most undetectable, “is-this-your-real-hair?” look by blending your natural hair with the wig at the part. But it may need heat tools to get a texture match when the textures of wigs and your natural hair are different. If you want more hairstyle options with a natural look and easy installation, half wigs are also excellent choice, which will expose your real hairline at the front to give a max hair freedom to create half up half down, high ponytails, down buns, half braid style, flip over style and more.
Step 1: Leave Out Some Hair
A small, V-shaped section of hair is separated at the top of the head, usually about three fingers wide at the base. This section of hair will later be used to blend with the wig. Compared with the U part wig with more leave-out hair, V part wigs are more friendly to beginners.
Step 2: Simply Braid Your Hair and Adjust Anti-slip Elastic Band (similar to the corresponding step for the "no-leave out" method above)
Braid the rest of your hair straight back or into flat cornrows, leaving only that V-shaped section out. Then adjust the anti-slip elastic band at the back of the wig cap to achieve a firm but not too tight effect.
Step 3: Position the Wig With Clips
Place the V part wig on your head and clip it in securely around the leave-out area. Double-check that the V opening lines up perfectly with your natural part and hairline.
Step 4: Adjust the Drawstring
Tighten the invisible drawstring until it feels secure. Give it a light tug test. If it doesn’t move, you’re good.
Step 5: Lay Down Leave-Out Hair
Now blend your leave-out with the v part wig. You can straighten it, curl it, or simply brush it into the wig if the textures already match; for example, a kinky straight v part wig will seamlessly blend with the natural hair of Black women without any heat tools. Warm care: A little edge control or wax stick goes a long way here.
Final Words
In short, both wearing methods—the fully covered "no hair left out" and the naturally blended "with hair left out"—allow you to easily achieve a stylish hairstyle. The "no hair left out" method prioritizes speed and hair protection, while the "with hair left out" method excels in realism. Choose the method that best suits your occasion, schedule, and styling goals, or switch between the two styles as you please to effortlessly create versatile looks.
