Mold Making for Custom Order

To ensure a proper fit and comfort, all custom orders should have the mold of the client's head.

We accept the following types of molds.

The Three Best Options

These options include that the finished custom unit will be returned with a smooth foam block mold of the client's head. 

Plaster Cast Molds  

This type of pattern gives you an "eggshell-modeling quality." It is very accurate and smooth, with no wrinkles. The finished custom unit will be returned with a smooth foam block mold of the client's head. 

Plastic PVC Molds

This type of mold could also give you the "eggshell-modeling quality." The finished custom unit will be returned with a smooth foam block mold of the client's head. 

Techform Molds 

This type of mold is very accurate. It is made of fiberglass strips, which will not mold like Plaster Cast. 

 


Other acceptable options

Packing Tape Molds

It is recommended to have 2 to 3 layers for a good shape. Do not fold them.

Scotch Tape Molds

This mold should only be used once. For a good shape, it is recommended that it have 4 to 5 layers. Do not fold them.

 


Reminder

Use permanent-colored markers (each one with a different color) to draw on the mold the following:

  • PU
  • Binding
  • Width of lace
  • Hair direction
