Tinting A Lace Frontal - Lace Frontal Wig Series: Step 2

Hey guys so in the last video I showed you guys how to reach your knots, which was the first step of making your own lace frontal meet. The second step is to tint your lace to match your skin tone. You want to do that because you noticed this can be very, very white or very clear to the point when you put it against your skin, you sort of make up that it's a lace, so you need to change the lace to match your skin tone so That it blends in much better okay, so I'll show you guys how to do that. What I usually use tint, my lace is this product which I buy on Amazon, do not find it in South Africa and I use the shade caramel. Oh so far, this has been the best ace frontal chinks are used. I'Ve tried a lot of things. I'Ve tried some fabric that I said I found in South Africa, such as, for example, lady die, tyreq, die small little box that you can find at this camp problem is, I always have this with caramel au shape, the thermal shape, sorry and I always have to Mix it with brown shade. This is too light for me, and sometimes you don't easily find the brown shade in the caramel. Shade is quite hard to find. You find a lot of the other colors which, like purple, we yellow one of the bright colors, are quite easy to find, but I find it when I go to just came most of the times. They don't have the caramel and moved wrong change. What I use I out weeks, the two pallets to loosen it to my skin tone, the other method of sitting. Your lace is using tea bags and I use anybody. I will see just in case you wan na hide meats like so sometimes I'll use tea or the tea. It'S also a bit tricky because you need to sort of do it a couple of times to see what works for you and what doesn't to me. It does great for me. I have tried it before I've used like five to sixty bags, which I'll also show you now. So, if you don't want to give you something new into the fabric, I know that buying wigs on Amazon definitely go 42 offs. It'S the most cost-effective way and obviously so yeah. Let me show you how I do it I'm going to start with the myth die. I will try one side of the lace to show you guys how it's going and then I'll try and guide the other rather take the other tea bags. To also show you guys that miss out so bear with me. You definitely need hot water. So I have my little of hot water right here. Hana me for the with die. We need a container, I'm just using old ice cream container, so they would die. You put one cup of hot water, so the ratio is 1 cup of water, equal 1 cup 1 cap of the with dark. I think Oh and I'm just gon na put a hot, but I don't know how many shoes, but this is how food snack easy to use your little bra. You want to put a little bit of salt and that helps to take the redness away. Students ease. So you do remember we'll do the other half of the teabag, so I'm just gon na pick. One half of this make sure. Don'T worry it's not going to die. You hear you want it the list. You want to leave it in there for life change to 15 minutes. I really only bit longer than 20 minutes okay, so we do that in 15 minutes to see how this okay, so I'm going to go ahead and remove this now you can see the lease he's sort of a little brown enough and you can see the part That we've dyed with tinted is brown a bit to the part we haven't changed into, and this makes a big huge difference. When you put your lace front a week on please this will look so much like lace and so unnatural ways. This would look so natural against your skin, so you definitely want to take. This is a very important step for making a list francelina. So now I'm going to do the other side, I'm going to show you guys how I change this side of it with the TV okay. So, with the tea method, you want to make sure that you firmly block by black tea and if you can get the tea boil on the stove for a few minutes, let this good old also work in five tea bags. In Dena I mean I'm who's gon na. Let it sit to its to a nice dollop, make sure you use blacks, hybrid, sustains to work really well for me, but you could also try any other brand of black tea, because that would be darker in will definitely ensure that you're released in so I'll. Leave that a few minutes - and then you said this is how it's looking right. Now, it's getting quite dark and if you really want it to get darker, then just press the teabags. I don't want it to get any darker than this, because otherwise it would look too dark for me, so I'm gon na go ahead and move the teabags. You can definitely go for like a darker color by putting more teabags in or lighter color. By putting this, if you're light-skinned, you'd, obviously put less teabags in you with dark skin, you put in more tea bags in it just depends. It'S gon na have to be trial and error, so you'll have to do a couple of time to see what works for you, but I find that this color works. I'M gon na go ahead and dip the lace front all the other side off in this right. Sorry this frontal in and I will allow it to sit for like 20 minutes, it's doing its treatment. Okay, so I'm gon na go ahead and take this out town and you guys can see that police is tinted. It'S nice and brown, so using tea bags definitely does work but, like I said it's trial and error just clear wrong: did you see what color of the tea liquid works best for you? So this is how it looks a little bit more seamless against the scheme. So what I'm gon na go ahead and get it out, I'm going to watch bringing a whole mix here, I'm gon na wash it with shampoo and conditioner and then we're going to hang it and in the next tutorial, I'm going to show you guys how I Customized, the hair line so by plucking it out and do the whole shebang: okay,
