Lace Closure Sew-In Tutorial Ft. Her Given Hair

So jumping right into it, i'm about to start my braid pattern and i'm using cantu shea butter. I like using this to moisturize my hair, and it also makes it easier to braid my hair and so i'll just be well. I have my part on the side of my head: that's where i want my lace: closure to be, and i'll just be braiding the braids going down from there, and i just want to show y'all um when i'm halfway down with my braids. I started doing this like on the second braid when i'm halfway down, i add in extensions for braiding hair, and this just helps to create a stronger foundation, and for me my hair is short. So i kind of need that extra hair to um make sure it holds, and my braids you know not unraveling and all that stuff so for the rest of my braid pattern, i'll be using the braiding hair like when i'm halfway done with the braid. So my braid pattern is all done and here's the hair that i'm using it's her giving hair. If you haven't seen my initial review on this beautiful hair go and check that out, and i have three bundles of 12 inch and i also have a 12 inch lace closure that i'm using so to get started. I like to put my closure like beyond my braids just so um. You know i have like some extra room to work with really alex like every single time y'all. I promise i do not set this up every single time. I start recording. Do you wanna yeah yeah, you wan na just steal the spotlight y'all, my child. This is my child, so anyway, um. What i do is just sew down the side of the closure. It'S nothing! Fancy! No science to it. Just literally spoke so down the side of the closure, making sure it's tight, making sure you know you're looping those knots and everything, and then you go to the other side, and you want to do this even tighter. You want to make sure like you're, pulling really tight on it. I can't i can't stress this enough, like how tight you need to make this, because this is gon na make sure that your closure is laying flat and y'all um, i'm a mom okay. He gon na be in my voiceover, so whatever just gon na get used to it, but anyway, now i'm cutting my lace up. I like to do this at this step because when i'm sewing, you know like the rest of the closure on. I want to make sure that my closure is not looking right, so i want to see how it's going to look and right here. I'M just sewing the rest of the closure down to my head going around and you know a little u-shape okay for this next step. You want to pick up some nylon thread um. You want to use nylon because the thread is so thin and you know it won't be noticeable in the front. So what i do and i'm gon na try to explain this as best as i can, but i thread it through the front um the front of my braid and then what i do is poke that needle up through my closure and then when i do that, I put it back through my closure, like almost right, where i went through it and then, after that i just threaded back through the first braid, and that basically, just is a step. I take to make sure the closure you know is obviously laying down in the front. I hope that made sense, but if not just watch carefully at what i'm doing and i'm sorry my video quality was like. Not all of that, because i wasn't like not in the camera that great, but hopefully you get what i'm doing on this part, and then i just do that on this side and then um. I think i make like a few stitches on you know each side and then i go to the other side and i do the same thing now, it's time to sew that hair on so i just want to show y'all um how i do my first track. I did leave like a little bit of hair out in the back, not really for a ponytail, but really just for, because i don't like that. You know the nape of my hair braided up because it kind of hurts so, but i do um my first track. I do it beneath the braid and i got i kind of go like under and around the web and that helps it to lay um lay really flat back there, especially if you got that you know bulky. Well, it's not really bulky, but if you got that big braid in the back, you want to make sure that you know them. Tracks is laying as flat as you can get them, because you know you want your stone to be. You know bomb. So what i do is i just go under, and that makes the track really flat in the back and here's a little tip on how you get your tracks to lay flat. When you decide you know not to cut the weft um when you just fold it back when you fold it, you want to leave like a little extra room and you kind of you want to go through the weft and then you know go around and you Want to make sure after you go through you're going under under under and around, and that makes it lay flat now, with every lace closure sewing. I take a spray bottle with water and i spray it and it just helps you to part it and it helps it to lay flat. So i'm just spraying that down and i'm gon na show you like how i customized my lace, closure and i basically just parted, and i began to rip those hairs out to widen the part to make it look more natural, and i did say i was gon Na bleach, my knots, i didn't, do it y'all. I got a little lazy, so i should have bleached my nose, but i didn't then hey, it's still fine. I think it still looks pretty good and um yeah. I'M just ripping out those hairs. Be careful just to rip a little bit at a time, so you don't rip the lace and just keep doing that until you get it, how you want it so this hair is pretty much already styled and you can watch that in my initial review, video. I'M just adding some more conditioner to my closure because i did, you know, manipulated a little bit and that just helps to set it in and y'all. I love this hair like it is beautiful um.
