How To Finesse This Affordable 5X5 Hd Lace Closure Wig Under $200 Ft. My Quality Hair

Hello, you guys welcome back to my channel today. I am going to be doing a review on my quality hair. I purchased this wig with my own money and we are just going to be doing a quick unboxing together. So opening up the box, it has this hair here that is in this pretty packaging. They also gave us some free goodies. Underneath you know, ladies, we love us some free stuff. They gave us this rat tail comb. They also gave us these two hair clips as well, and then they gave us a wig cap. I really wish companies would let us pick the color of our wig caps. I would prefer a brown one, but i guess we'll just keep the tan as a backup. If i ever need one, so this is what the hair is looking like inside of the packaging, it comes in this beautiful, pink sheared back here, so taking the hair straight out of the pack. The first thing that i notice is baby. This hair is thick. It is so thick, it is so full it's only 130 percent density, but that's one thing about kinky straight wigs. Is they look way thicker than what they actually are so taking everything out of the wig? This is what it is looking like. It is 18 inches and it is so soft it feels so good. I love the feel of this hair, so this is what the inside of the wig is looking like. It has two combs on the side, a comb in the back, a comb in the middle and then also an adjustable strap, so this wig should fit pretty snug on my head. So this is what the hairline is looking like before we do any manipulation, and this is also what the inside is looking like as well. You get that 5x5 closure. This is what the hairline is looking like. It looks a little pre-plucked, but not too much. What i'm doing here is just putting it against my skin just to kind of see what it's looking like and how well it'll blend once i melt it so right now, what i'm just going to do is go off camera to flat iron, the hair after i Flat iron, the hair, i will be back to show you guys what it's looking like alright, so this is what the hair is looking like after i flat ironed it, and it looks really good. It honestly did not take that much work to flat iron. This hair - i just ran it through two times, and it got this flat. It took to a flat iron very well, so it looks really pretty and it honestly this wig, i didn't mention it smelled, really good. A lot of wigs have like that manufacturing smell, but this one did not. It smelled really really good. So this is what it's looking like so far. So now, what i'm getting ready to do is put some makeup on the inside of this wig. I am going to try my best to not do any manipulation to this wig. I want to try to wear it straight out of the packaging, so i don't want to bleach it or pluck it i'm going to try fingers crossed, but ain't no telling with me. So right now, what i'm doing is just taking it off of my wig head, and i am just going to grab some makeup and rub it on the inside of the lace so that it will blend better with my skin. The foundation i'm going to be using is just the maybelline matte poreless foundation in the color 370, and then i'm also using a foundation brush. The foundation is honestly it's darker than my actual skin, but for some reason it makes my lace blend better with a darker foundation than a lighter foundation. Ladies tell me if you agree if that works the same for you, so i'm just going to put a little bit on the inside of this brush, not a lot just a little bit, because you don't want it to be caked up on the lace and you Are just going to spread it around on that closure part just so that it'll look darker and not so ashy all right. So now that we've added our foundation, this is what the lace is. Looking like it's looking a lot better now, the knots are not as noticeable and then you can tell that it's not as ashy as it was before. So that is the point of putting makeup on the inside of the lace when you don't feel like bleaching it like me so now. What i'm doing is i'm just combing the hair out of the way, because we're getting ready to cut off this lace and we don't want any hair in the way. So what i do first is, i just take some scissors and i just cut a little slit in the lace just so that it can prepare me for when i use my eyebrow razor to cut the rest of the lace off so using an eyebrow um razor Is good to use so that you don't have a straight line going across because nobody's hairline is straight across so using an eyebrow razor it'll just make the ends. Look a little jagged, so it'll give some dimension in the hairline. So what i'm doing now is. I am just parting, the hair just to show you guys what it's looking like is very much giving scalp. For me, it's definitely giving scalp. You can definitely tell that they took their time with making this wig, because it is so nice and the wig lays flat, which is super important, but look at that. It looks like scalp. You can't tell me it's not scalp, it looks so good. I love it. So what i'm getting ready to do is i'm going to show you guys how i install the wig and then i'll be back all right. So this is what the wig is like plopped on my head and off the grip. I do not like this hairline, not feeling it at all. I thought i could try to get away with not plucking it, but i am going to go ahead and pluck it a little bit because it is looking too round and too boxy and i hate when my wigs look wiggy. I don't like it. So i am just going to pluck it a little bit, so i ended up taking the wig off of my head and i plucked it on my wig stand, it's just easier for me to do it that way, and you can definitely tell the difference. The hairline looks way better now, all right so after we pluck. This is what the wig is looking like, and it is looking a lot better than it did before, and let me just say i never knew my head. Was this big until today, like it's very much big, so don't even say it because i already know so now, i'm going to just take my eben lace bonding spray. This is the extreme firm hold and i am just going to spray two layers and blow dry. It on the front of my hairline and then after that we're just going to sit the wig on top to melt all right. So now, after that, i am just going to take a q-tip and i'm going to put a little water on it and just go across the hairline and just wipe off all the extra glue that you have. You want to make sure you get that off, because that looks crazy when you have that shiny part on the hairline. So that is the purpose we are just going to wipe all the excess glue off. So now we are going back with our foundation and we are just going to put some foundation across the hairline. As you can see, the hairline is looking a little bit ashy, so we are just going to take a small brush and just get a little bit of foundation and put it on the brush and we are just going to put it across the hairline so that It will blend better all right so now what i'm getting ready to do is lay this lace down, so i'm just putting my hair in a ponytail getting it out the way - and i just use this elastic band here and we are just going to tie it Around our lace, just so that we can melt it into the skin. Now you want to tighten that thing. Super tight look at me like take away the circulation in your brain. No not really, but just make sure you want it tight enough, so that it will melt the lace well, alright! So after we let that sit for about 10 minutes, we are going to take this elastic band off and we are going to see how well it melted the lace she's, definitely giving scalp. Where is the lace if you find a lace i'll give you nothing, because you can't find a lace? Okay, so right now i am just parting, my hair, to where i want it parted. I am a left side, part girl. So now i am just parting. The hair and i'm going to use my hot comb to help lay it down all right. So now i am just taking my even hair wax stick, and i am just going to rub that across the top of the hair, so it can help the hair lay flat all right. Now i'm just going to take my olive oil hairspray and i am just going to spray the hair and then i'm going to flatten it with my hot comb again and i'm also going to create some baby hairs. And after i finish the installation i'll be back to give you guys my final thoughts, all right, you guys. So this is the final product of what i came up with with this hair. This hair is so so so beautiful, it's so soft and full. I love it now. It is a 5x5 undetectable lace, um yankee straight wig that i got from my quality hair um. The specs is, it is 18 inch 130 density and it is the natural hair color. Now what i will say as far as the lace um it blends very, very well, as you can see it does blend pretty well, i wanted to try to do it without bleaching the knots but looking at it, i can. I can see the nuts and that is going to drive me crazy. So i think i might end up bleaching the knots because i don't think i'm going to be able to deal with it, because i can see the knots and it's going to drive me crazy. I think i should also invest in like the lace tint spray, because i do use makeup, but i know i heard good things about the lace tint spray, so i might try that because i hate bleaching my knots because i'm not a professional at all so bleaching. My knots, i usually always over bleach my knots i either over bleach them or i under bleach them like it's, never a perfect bleach knot for me, so i think i will probably go in and bleach the knot, so just so that it looks a little more Natural but baby, you can't tell me to say my hair. This very much grew out of my scalp okay. No, it's so beautiful, like i love this, and it took to a flat iron really really well like it got pretty flat, and i only ran it through when i planned it about two times like per strand two times, and i think it did really good. I got majority of the kinks out which that really wasn't the plan, but i mean i love the way. It looks it's so soft and flowy and i think it is beautiful um. The thing that i love about 5x5 closure wigs - is you only got the lace from about here to here, so you only have to worry about gluing that down every day for work, i'm always blowing my lace down and it takes so much time. So i think the 5x5 closure wigs are a great great idea. I do love the construction of the wig. It fits my head pretty snug. So if i wanted to, i could definitely wear this glueless, but i i'm not that bold to wear glueless just because when i wear glueless i can see like the line of demarcation and that's not cute, so i always glue it down. But i only use like you see that i just use my even um wonderlace bun, the extreme firm hold. I use that one and i love that stuff and that's all i use. I just did two layers and that's it so overall, my opinion of this hair is, i think it is gorgeous. I would definitely recommend it but, like i said, i ended up plucking it because the um hairline was too boxy for me. I didn't pluck it that well just because i don't want to over pluck it, but i did pluck it a little bit. I think it looks better and i do think i'm going to go in and bleach the knots just a little bit just so that it'll look more natural to me, but overall i love this hair, so you guys tell me what you think about it right.
