Oh hey guys so today, I'm going to show you how to slay and lay your lace, wig or front zone. So first I like to start by measuring the frontal on my head and what I really like about this front tool is that everybody has like the dips and grooves of like a natural hairline. So it's not just like straight, and it doesn't look weird. So, as you can see, I start to part some hair and I'm parting it like a centimeter behind the edges. You don't want to start plucking the hair on the actual, like edges, you want to start plucking a little bit behind it so that it starts to look more realistic and natural. You don't want to be plucking away at hair and not have anything in the front. So, as you can see, I actually started by just pulling the hair. I saw better be faster than plucking, but after a while you'll see there, I just went back to use my tweezers, but pulling did help a little bit as you can see right there in that spot. I did get some hair to go away. So I just continued parting, the hair, and now I brought my tweezers in so now I'm going to be tweezing. This process takes a long time. It probably took me like an hour to just tweeze the whole entire hairline. So right here, I'm just plucking a little bit in the front. I know I said, don't really pluck in the front, but I'm just plucking a little bit in the front to get like more of my natural hairline, because the grooves don't not necessarily match with my hairline. So I don't know if you guys can kind of tell. But you can kind of see a little bit of the hair like going away to make it look more realistic. So now I'm doing both message: I'm plucking with the tweezers and I'm also pulling so here's a closer look of the left and the right side of the hair of the frontal um. As you can see right there, it's really thick still because I have not touched it yet and then, as you can see the left side, it started thinning away a little bit. It looks more natural because that's where I was plucking and, like I said before, I was plucking behind like a centimeter behind the hairline, so I repeated the process on the right side as well, and this is my final product so far as you can see the Front of the hairline is spinned out a little bit and it's going to look more natural on my head. So here's a side-by-side of how the hairline looked initially with the frontal before I plucked it in here, is on the right, my thinned out hairline. So now I'm going to sew the lace frontal onto my weight cast here, I'm just using a pin to get it steady, so I'm starting to sew the frontal on, and I sometimes I get a bit confused on how to Sol front hold on to a wig Cap - this is only my second one, it's a bit different than so in just a closure, but I'm sewing like how I plus I'm sewing to find the edges in the hairline. I'M not sewing like right in this front. I want some hair to cover it. So that's the secret to sewing this down. You want to sew, like kind of behind the hairline and I'll zoom in and a little bit to show you guys what I'm talking about, and I'm not going to sew this all the way up until the top. I'M pretty much going to stop here for sewing it down, because I don't want it to look weird when it gets to the top. You want to leave it kind of open up there, like you would with your closure. So here is a close-up of where I stitch it. It'S pretty much like invisible and that's where I like, so it's just behind the hair and it's just going to keep it in place and look good. So now that I finished, I finished sewing the bundles on to the wig cap and the closure. Now I'm going to adjust it and make it look more natural realistic. So that is how their hairline looks right now after I plucked it, but I need to get my baby here to leave. Ladies, so I am taking a blade right now on the set of scissors, because the blade makes it more of like a not clean / uniformed, like you know, razor sharp, sharp look, so I am still just playing with my edges and the baby hairs, because the Baby hair is key to making your frontals look good. Ladies, we don't want you to want your baby here to be too long. You don't want them to be non-existent because they are going to help in hiding the demarcation line from the front. Oh and your forehead. So it's really really important that you lay the baby hairs properly and I love to use my brown eyeshadow to make it look even better. So, to make your lace a frontal, look more flawless, you want to add a powdery like you know, eyeshadow or powdery concealer to the laces across, but you don't want to use liquid because it might like you know, rub off at the end of the day, but By adding eyeshadow it helps it look more seamless and flawless, and I just got my eyeshadow from the dollar store. So, as you can see, it actually kind of looks like it's coming from my scalp a little bit. The lace of the frontal was a bit lighter than my forehead, so the eyeshadow helps a lot and I just love it. So that's that I really hope this video was informative. Ladies and helpful, because I know it's really really hard to lay our lace frontals down and make it look great, I don't have anything holding it down right now, either I don't have glue. Nor do I have tape. I will be sewing the elastic band on to this wig so that I'll stay down bad there right now. I just have two bobby pins on the sides, so thanks so much for watching. Please comment below. If you have any questions I'll put all the links down below for this closure in the hair, because I love it, it's from Berger, hair or Aliexpress, it's amazing! So thanks so much for watching please thumbs up the video and season were to subscribe, bye, guys

Kyra Shanelle: The Best Lace Frontal Tutorial I've Seen On YouTube! It looks so real and the hair is beautiful you did a great job.
Miss Williams: This looks sooooooo good Essie - I may have to try this! I'm one of those girls with no edges at all so I was so happy to see this tutorial...I can't get over how realistic this looks - amazing!
Amazon W: YESSSSSSS MUVA!!!! YOU LAID THAT FRONTAL FOR TWO WEDDINGS AND A FUNERAL!!! DEFINITELY THE BEST I HAVE SEEN ON SOCIAL MEDIA!! I WISH YOU COULD DO MINE

Naturally Cari: This was perfect!! Love the tutorial
Madison Chase Fitness: Hi beautiful Essie, Love the $1 store brown eyeshadow trick. I'm a new sub and really enjoyed your baby hair and making this lace front frontal look so natural!!!
Platinum Rose: Very realistic and natural! Slay!
sade watkins: i really want to see how you look when you straighten this hair. be sure to comeback with an update my questions though is sbout when you stop sewing halfway through the frontal. i was a bit confused. i know you explained it but i do usually do that, even with my closures so i dont get it
TheCRYSTALLURE: There's also a couple methods to dye the lace so that it will blend with the skin tone. Tea bag method and Philip Eric dos one as well which was pretty cool. Ivy Dear did a video on it too because I feel like the brown shadow will get annoying to keep adding it every time you wear it if it's an everyday look.
kaleisefacinelli: OMGGGG, it's looks so realistic Essie!!! I was gonna get one for my install, but didn't know if it would look realistic, I should've done it!!!!It looks amazing boo!!

ameerah khan: I like this!! I have a few suggestions for making the lace look more natural. You can either bleach the knots, or use the camo method which means dying the knots a lighter color. And for the lace I use Ritz fabric dye it works wonders. Cocoa would be your color your almost the same color as my sister. BTW your beautiful. Keep up the good work.

Miss Ricki: Hello, i am curious to know if the frontal width on both sides flapped past the ears? My head apparently isnt 13 inches across and i cant figure out what to do with the frontal area that goes past my ears. If i try and sew it behind my ears then my sideburns (different texture) is exposed. Any suggestions?
