I came across a rather inexpensive package of doll hair & couldn't resist. The last batch of hair was a shank of straight hair so could jump right into wefting.
This package is loose & curly with lots of coils so needs a bit of prep before sewing the wefts. It is one continuous length with several strands of hair grouped together. It took a bit of digging to find the end!
To make it more manageable & to get consistent lengths, I have wrapped it around a flattened cardboard box. I wrap the strand around a half dozen times & gently slide it to one side. This is producing the even layer that I was hoping for. The clip board is merely to hold the hair from unravelling when I set it down.

I need several different lengths & using cardboard provides great flexibility to accomplish this.
