An American man, Ben Sherry from San Diego, went viral on TikTok after he shared a wig installation tutorial that wowed many people.

Sherry filmed the process and edited the video into a one-minute clip. The man posted the footage on 13th July and has garnered over 11 million views since then.

Women from all over the world thought the man’s vulnerability was attractive, as men often avoid anything feminine, including makeup. Sherry was not ashamed of how he kept himself put together and achieved his youthful glow.

US man shares wig installation tutorial on TikTok

Sherry took off his wig right before he took a shower and exposed his balding head. He then shaved a bit of hair in the centre of his head and washed the wig in the sink.

Sherry soaked the wig in soapy water while he washed his body in the shower. After he finished bathing, he could easily remove old glue from his wig’s lace.

He continued cleaning his hair to his satisfaction, used a towel to dry it off, and used a comb to detangle it. The next step would be to install and style the wig.

Sherry applied glue to his bald spot and carefully placed the wig on his head. He used pins to properly achieve his desired look and ended by moisturising and blow-drying his hair.

The wig perfectly matched his ginger hair, which gave him a natural appearance. The look took a decade off from his appearance and wowed social media users.
