How To: Bleach Knots A Lace Closure

Is it a product that you're going to be using to bleach your closure? First off your powder Lightner, this one is called Claro, don't know if you can see it says on the side, this one's called Clairol. This is what the tub looks like. This is actually a big tub. They do sell them in packs. You can get the packs, but I got the tub because I shouldn't do a lot of bleaching. For my clients this is a cream developer. I like volume 40. You can definitely get volume 30 or 120, whatever you know, rocks your socks, but I like 40 because it lightens the fastest and I have zero patient. So this one works good for me, and this is just the same thing, but it's two different brand. So, on whatever brand you like better, you know whatever is all because it says creme developer on it you're good. This is a mixing bowl. You definitely don't have to get this one as fancy as it is. You can definitely use a regular bowl that you have in your house, you're also going to be neutralizing samples, because this shampoo is going to stop the product from working. Just in case you tend to use too much bleach or you know, if you tend to leave it on the hair by mistake, the neutralizing shampoo will stop it from over bleaching you're going to need a pair of gloves. This is optional, but you always want to protect your hands when you're working with chemicals, especially with bleach. So I definitely recommend you getting a pair of gloves. This is a some aluminum foil. You don't need a big piece if you're only bleaching a closure um. This looks like a paper, I would say, maybe like was it like 8 by 11 size or a piece of paper yeah, just big enough to close the closure so that it can process and a comb? Any comb will do usually people use like prime brushes or something, but I feel like prime brushes put too much product on the hair, and then you end up with over bleach. Not so I might try to use a either a old mascara wand, which I don't have on here right now, or just a regular comb and shining you're, also Muses, to mix the bleach together over here. My client has three bundles of malaysian wavy here. This is a bundle of sixteen a bundle of eighteen in a bundle of twenty we're not going to bleach this hair. But we are going to make a, u part wig and I'm going to show you guys how to do that in my next tutorial, and this is just the clothes your same texture as the hair. As you can see, the knots are not bleach yet and that's what we're going to do now: okay, first you're, going to start with about a cup full of bleach powder, bleach, you're gon na put it in your mixing bowl Wow, maybe half a cup! You can alternate the recipe for the bleach, just you know to your liking. You just want to make sure it's to a consistency. I'Ll show you with the consistency. Tea is you're going to add the cream developer and you're going to mix and what the cream developer does is activate the bleep. You want to make sure you mix it really good. Actually, this is probably too much bleach and I just need, but if you have the pack of bleach um excuse me that can work too you'll just use one pack and they don't have any small packs of developer. Sorry, ladies, but just use one pack as enough to developer to make it about this consistency. It'S still sick, but you don't want it too thick because it's not going to take very well and you don't want it too thin because I'll say you don't say natio. Sometimes it very well, this is a perfect consistency again. This is probably way too much bleach, but you don't have to use all of it, so you want to start by taking a little bit on your comb back your comb. You want to make sure all your here is out of place and you're going to start gently, brushing it across your closure. You can comb it across. You want to be very careful not to press down into the closure, because you want to get as little bleach on a hair on actual hair as possible, so very light strokes. And you don't need to bleach all the way over here on the side. Just focus on whether or not sorry with that being said, if you get a little bit on the hair, that is perfectly fine. Don'T worry you, okay, so now that all of our knots are covered in bleep, hey little baby here is enough: Rhonda guy lovely John! It'S all right, not too much so we're going to do next is we're going to cover it with our oil and we're going to let it sit and remember the process for about twenty two extra bleach. I know times are hard out here. I mean way too much bleach. You don't ever need this much, but you know thought out: don't try to save it, don't try to be cheap. Okay. So, as you can see at this point, our closure is bleached. Our knots are bleached and I'm just going to rinse with cold water, make sure you thoroughly rinse this closure out and then next would come in the neutralizing shampoo. So just in case you didn't rinse very well or you still have some bleach in there. You'Re always going to use a neutralizing shampoo to make sure that all the bleach is gone just make sure you rub it into the base really well and through the hair and then rinse tattoo with cold water. Normally, at this point after you would add, a moisturizing, shampoo and conditioner, some people like to follow it up with the color correcting shampoo just to take some of the Bryson is out of the base, but I've done thousands of closures. I'Ve done thousands of bleaching and I don't see a difference when you know people use a color corrector and when you don't so at this point, the closure is bleached and it should match any skin tone stay tuned. For the. U part: wig
