You know what let me stop making excuses and start and get on this thing. So, if so subscribe below already. Thank you so much because I think this is my first official um video on the channel, hopefully um and God willing. I can be able to make time to shoot more and more content, and the reason why I wanted to put this one up was specifically to review this lovely unit that I cut so that I can plug my curls okay, so that I can plug my clothes. So it gets to be lovely. Super love, Yellow g, okay, so thank you so much if you've already subscribed, because the Chinese, and already I had about 100 subscribers, so thank you so much for believing in me. You know for pushing me available, so you guys are the reason why I actually decided to sit and do this um. So I just wanted to be a quick um review. Video apparently like yeah, but I just want to say if you have not subscribed. If you are not subscribed, please just do the right thing and imagine the reason why I'm trying to use to get a proper lighting because it's already dark outside and I'm not even sure if the quality of this video is gon na be great. But it's fine, because yeah and the time now is actually six. The time is 6 p.m. So it's still very early, but it's dark because that's the life in winter here, which is very unfortunate, so you guys have to bear with me if the quality of the video is not that great and also if you hear background noises, please just be with me Because I also have I'm sharing with someone - and some of you might know already so, if there's like some background noises - and I also don't want to be too loud now because like in their Shadow but anyway, that is not the point. So, let's get to this is actually transferred the things that I wanna cover um, but I'm actually not like I'm, not I'm not too prepared for the video guys you'll bear with me. I'M not too prepared for the video in terms of actual points, but I'll try to generate the points as I go and I discuss the things that I want to discuss. Also, I don't want this video to be too long. I was actually planning to do a sit-down installation, video which is gon na, be a kind of it will follow after the actual formal review um. But for now the first part of this video was to just welcome everyone to my channel, and the channel is definitely not going to be focused on goals. Only we'll just do things as we go and figure figure it out as we go, but for now I just wanted to put my Kelly's on and put this as my first video so that you guys can see who's in every channel as soon dog anyway. So um and I decided to that's reviewer this week that I bought so if you've ever won that, if you have ever wondered if you can buy hay from AliExpress baby, if you've ever wondered, if you can buy here from AliExpress, how reliable are they um people, Like especially in South Africa, I know for a factors. A lot of people are always very skeptical about buying from like overseas suppliers, even from she in the people who are still not comfortable with paying from even to this little date, and they would rather buy from you if you sell things as we are Gucci in Than for them to buy for for for themselves, is she in Seoul um, I'm not promoting anyone's um company? This is not a paid video. I just wanted to put my clothes on in case you're. Also one of those people who are just like can I actually trust, can I actually buy? Can I actually you know kids, hair or whatever from um? I think Chinese suppliers yeah the reason. I'M saying that um will be detailed in this video. I will explain why. I'M saying Chinese supplies: there are actually Chinese suppliers anyway um, so I bought the units the it was my first purchase as well from AliExpress. I have a hair supply, I mean when I was still in South Africa. So the reason why I decided to go to you know what let me just try and find another hair supply, also because some of my colleagues from back in South Africa had already been telling me that they are actually buying um here from AliExpress. No, no so I was like okay. Let me just try them also because when I'm one person I'm very picky about where I buy my hair, because I see hair as Investments, I don't want to spend my money buying here. That'S not gon na last or hey. That'S just not worth the money, that's not value for my money. So that's why I was like okay. I just want to see the hair before I buy it. So if I can't do that with AliExpress, I'm not gon na try them and also, I think in South Africa. I was very skeptical because I think it does take a bit of time for them to deliver the hair. So now I was like, let me try. My chances like, let me try um, take a leap of faith, kind of yeah um. It went well, I guess so. I bought the wig from AliExpress. I placed the order on. I placed the order on the 28th. This thing should show um I put a place on the 28th of October 2022 and the price of their work was in total. I paid 62 pounds 60 um which, when I translate from the top of my head, should be around 1 200. 62 yeah. It should be around 1200 1000, 250, 40, 30 around there, basically and the the delivery shipping shipping was free. That'S what they said on on on the website that I think it you have to buy here. That'S worth a certain amount for them to give you free, um, shipping and delivery. So for me I qualified for the shipping and here in the UK, the delivery is like 15 days 15 days, delivery guaranteed on time um. So I placed the order on the 28th. I do not have to pay Customs when I buy things from China when I'm here in the UK. I think it's just that tax legislation thing which I know in South Africa you guys are gon na - have to pay Customs. If you are watching this from South Africa anyways, so I'll explain that in a few um I did not have to pay customs and the hair was eventually delivered. So the thing that I'm looking at here I'll share at the end of this video after I do the formal installation, um video and then at the end, I'll share screenshots of the week that I purchased and I bought um. I bought it um in 12 inches. I bought it in 12 inches and it was delivered on um. I just want to check yes, sorry when was it delivered on the 16th yeah on the 16th of November, so I placed the order on the 28th of November. They said it's 16 days, delivery guaranteed and then the order arrives on the 16th of November. Something is not make sure anyways guys that land it's not 15 days, but anyway, maybe they were referring to 16 working days. Um in in women I like to buy things in advance which for me was a plus because I did have time and I I was not playing. I remember I posted the hair on my Instagram stories and I only wore it like end of December on, but there was that on Christmas Eve. That is the day that I installed the wig. So I mean I usually buy things in advance because I don't like I'm rushing myself to do anything in this life, so basically the hair was then delivered on the 16th. I did not pay Customs, so that's about like almost two weeks-ish and a few days, two weeks and a few days um, the supplier was tuneful, hey Boutique and based on my other friends that I've spoken to you can trust tunfall, hair Boutique. You can trust Ali Grace and those are the two suppliers. Like I told you, this is my first purchase and yeah Ali Grace as well has supplies very good. Her, especially color color like if you want color like blonde wigs those um wigs. So I paid that amount. So when I look in South African rand terms for the same 13.4, frontal wig um, so it's a ear to ear. This is the wig um for the same frontal with 12 inches of hair. The cost is 1087 Rands um and the density is 180. It only comes in one. You'Ve only got one option anyway, so they say that it's discounted from 2700 and then the price is shown before tax, so after tax it might actually amount to the same amount that I paid um for the hit, which is around 1 000.. I need to go and buy food after this, so anyway, it's fine that I'm just gon na amount to like around 1200. fine and then now. The thing is when you're in South Africa, what they told me is because now I wish I had ports from AliExpress and I still in South Africa, so that I can give you guys. Information from experience, but because I have reliable sources, rely Untold by a reliable source that they they deliver even in South Africa. It does not take long even in South Africa. It can take about even a week depending on the supply that you purchase from and the career just like in she, and you know how they'll use buffalo they'll use aramex and then, if they use buffalo, you know your order is just it's. Gon na arrive very quick. The others is gon na arrive very quick um, but if they use aramex, is it arabics arabics? You know they have gon na take a long time, so even with AliExpress. So if they use DHL for your order when you're in South Africa, you can expect to get your order delivered at your doorstep. Uh in this turn around of like a week two weeks, they can deliver the hair within that time frame if they use THL, because DHL is apparently very quick and in terms of Customs, you are looking at um. I know we'll see Customs according to South African text legislation at Customs they actually determine the price based on the weight. In any case, so here is not healthy guys a week a simple week is it weighs less than a kg so Customs. The way you can't expect to pay anything more than 200., so all together, you're looking at 1.4 okay, so we are looking at 1.4 delivery at most. You know, because I always thought you know it's going to take time. No, no! No! No at most! Let'S give it a month, let's say a month: it'll take a month for them to deliver the hair just to for you to be on the safe side, especially if you're gon na buy the hair with the intention of wearing it. It'S like an occasion or something like that: um so give them a month, but apparently they can't deliver within a space of a week and you'll have to pay Customs. Obviously, so I'll drop the screenshots I'll drop everything at the end of the installation. The installation did take a bit of time simply because of rather new week, but today today the week was very quick for me to install I'll. Do a installation video when you've already cut the hair like I'll, keep updating the installation. Videos as I go so that um people that are beginners can also find it easy to install the wig without e-stress it hassle. What do I think of the hair um? What do you guys think? What do you guys think it's giving like it's giving? I actually wish I had my I'll show you Mina when I assist um from a perspective you're going to like I've dealt with here, but hey I've tried different supplies for a very long time, and I from where I stand genuinely think that it's good hair, it's Okay, like the quality of the hair um, you can easily get away if you wanted a wig to like for convenience where they work even numbers. Um, it's very nice. It'S very soft! It'S very soft, as you guys can see it's very soft. It'S very soft! It'S very soft, it's very nice, but the first thing that when minamang installation is, I thought I might not like this hay, because, firstly, it's black, as you can see, I'm wearing black and the hair is not different to this jumpsuit that I'm wearing. So it's black. I don't like my hair black, so for me that was the first sort of thing that made me almost doubt, because the hair is nice and it's kind of too soft. I think it's designed to be like that, especially from Chinese suppliers, guys. So, basically, if you're in South Africa - and you know Dragon City, it's giving Dragon City, that's what it's giving my child, it's giving Dragon City it's too soft, um, genuine Brazilian hair. According to experience, I mean in the past tend to be brownish, which is the natural hair, my natural hair color anyway, but I've actually never met people that I have strictly black hair like pure black pitch black, so usually people, especially black people, have like brownish hair. So this is black, not brownish. So for me that was the first sort of I might not like this hair. So yesterday and instead of being Brown, I love my hair brown, but I still installed it in here and then I installed it. I felt different. It was a while I love it. I love it. It'S soft! Yes, I'm not. I don't have experience with hair, that's like very, very soft, because it also loses shape very easily um, but today I did not even straighten it. I did nothing to the hair. I literally just put it through and I think it is I'll post a video which is fine um, but the actual hair is like soft. Yes, it does fall off when I brush it. When I comb it, I don't think it's an investment. I don't think it's hay that I can expect to last me four years, especially because I bought this wig to wear it for convenience at work. Simply because I don't run away my other expensive works. I think 1. 200. I don't think I've wasted. My money. 1200 is affordable, so if you want a Wiki as a as a keeper, you know away from your other wigs. They actually also have have it in in a five by four and a five by four closure, the one that's not a full frontal. So it's a way and go. You can actually go for that option if you wanted it. If you wanted that option, but my other wig um is, is that side? I was actually going to show you the composer. In fact, let me fetch it so here it is so if we compare the two wigs, can you see the difference this? This is from a very trusted supplier. This week is from a very trusted supplier, it's from all the way from Mozambique, and now I usually look at the Brazilian like the means, it's good quality here, it's original. So this has I've hit this Wig. It has very long, but I've hit this wig for like going six years now is this week of men that you guys know, so you see the difference in the hair color. So yes, I it's. Thus they said it's human hair. When I asked because I was concerned guys, is this human hair or what is it doing? You know and they're like yeah, it's him in here. It didn't burn. When I use heat on the hay, it doesn't burn. So that's like a good sign. Yes, it is human hair, it is good quality. It'S giving it's very beautiful. It'S very soft. I love it so much um. So if you are considering getting a wig that you can, you know use um without breaking the pockets without spending a lot of money. If you want to buy a wig, that's not going to break the bank, you know what I mean you can consider getting it overall, I love it. It'S giving birth Dragon City. So yes, and that's fine, because I don't think they'll go to four years. Four years will last a weekly. I don't think so, because it's not that bad, but their Puma means gamma and um. If I, because I'm planning to cook too bleach the hair. So if I ever do that, it'll be worse, it'll be worse, but um, absolutely love the hair I'll share the screen, shots and share the details, um so that, if you guys want it and you're skeptical, I would say: go for it instead of buying, because a Lot of Instagram suppliers, in any case they sell, they lay Dragon City. Here they sell AliExpress. So if you are considering buying something, that's not gon na cost. You a lot of money, and you wanted to use it for convenience, could be lovely, Could Be Love, eulogy I'll say, go for it, it's better than buying this wig from an Instagram supplier over the 2000. Because - and I don't want to mentioned the Instagram Supply, because it's also wasn't here but again so that's my history. No, it's not make sure you're not paying a lot of money. Number two! You know what you're getting you know: you're, not expecting Nigerian quality here or Mozambique and quality hair um. But it's okay, that's good! It looks good. The black is not actually bad on my skin, so I'd say: go for it so I'll. Take you guys, through the actual installation, um and I'll, keep doing installation videos, because the the the video will see the quality um of the video. I'M not very impressed with it, because I was using ring lights. But I had to disconnect the ring light because I had to plug a hair dryer, so you guys never patience with beginners beginners, so um. If you have anything that you'd like to know, you can reach out to me on my Instagram Facebook account and ask and I'll tell you give you the details, the information, so I guess we Lovely song and please feel free to drop your views. Your what your thoughts, whatever your experience, with paying here from AliExpress on my comment, section down below and yep. I hope you enjoyed the video and today's episode of living the dream with sonella below okay. So, let's get to it guys. The first thing that I like to do I like to use a foundation that matches my skin tone to prep my lace. I feel like the stapler season, just snacks so use a foundation, that's the same shade as your skin tone and prep your lace. You can also use powder, but I like to use the foundation Mina and then I like to make sure manager so that the hair does not overwhelm me as you guys can see this hair. I had just finished washing it because I did wash it first. So I use immunos, you can use any brand, I love and prefer Olive there's, a brand called Olive. It'S green! That'S the brand that I was using patterns, so I bought them Tresemme when I got to the UK. So that's the one that I'm using to prep. My my my wig, so basically once that's done um as you guys can see, I'm just measuring the wig and making sure that I place um the wig and position it where I once I wanted to sit after I've cut in reli's army. So Amanda guys. You see this spray bottle that I'm using. I just took a spray um and see AMC spray bottles, and I think you guys saw me in Italian foods. Why? Because it helps me to manage my hair. It helps me to keep the hair in position and it helps a lot a man's Ginger and wig. That'S Amanda a week's best friend best friend, so I mean I always use water so that we can overwhelm me and a bit easy, because now more installation is um like intimidated as well. So I'm trying to measure so this part the week. The lace is very nice, as you guys can see, it was already pre-plugged. I did not need to pre-plug it, but on the other side it went just um under my my ear, which I don't think is a problem. I think in my cutter moment. This is the part that I was talking about because um, but because you do, I need to cut it off to it. Do I need to cut off the path that has inreal or not so? People have different shapes, hair shapes, um, sorry, head shapes and sizes. So measure it according to into just um already so what I like to do is I like to go just um over my hairline so that it is um problem um, so I'm using ego to be glued spray. The actual spray I'm gon na come up. I'M gon na post a revised tutorial um for something that I think people might actually find a lot more easier because it got to be glutes spray. And now I'm savings is a hair dryer, mostly because it doesn't always just stick. It'S the first attempt, but one thing that you need to do is you need to be patient. You need to have a patience when it comes to installing your wig um, simply because you see people posting on my videos, Tick, Tock or whatever, but behind closed doors. It'S not as easy as it. It looks, especially if it has installed our inner. So you need to be patient and see the vision you need to see. What'S: okay CRP to be closer, that's why I mean I like to use water anyway, so I'm cutting the wig now um. I did not need to cut the part that has hair um, so, as you guys can see, it's clearly nicely so for some people the wig might be a bit big for some people. It might be I'm too small. I don't know, but for me now. Luckily, yeah exactly nicely so I'm started off by cutting the sides and making sure you could see the wig um fits my head and my forehead, especially the frontal, is sitting nicely before I can proceed to cut off anything else. So the important thing is for you to see the vision here. I should have used like the head clip or something to push the hair to the back, but it doesn't matter anyway. That'S why I mean I always tell people don't pressure yourself as long as you can see the vision. As long as you are able to cut the hair um, you don't have to be perfect with anything um just measure the week according to the shape of your head. At this point, I'm trying to push it down so that it dries. I should have actually used a hair dryer, but I did not want to disconnect the ring light because I shot this video at night, so yeah, as you guys saw, I did tie the hair to the back so that cbse, mover and likely and as I showed You guys immune to keep the hair to the back, so that is so. I did use a razor blade kind of. I don't know what this thing is called the pink one, but it basically it has Eraser plate pambili. I bought it here in the UK. I had never used it before, so I wanted to try this technique of using a razor blade. I did kind of work, it did kind of work. I think the one thing that's good about it is that it gives sort of a natural look. It'S not as easy as using a Souza, though I've always used a scissor before, and I do think we'll go to my next tutorial will be I'll use a scissor just so I can show people that are beginners as well, simply because it's very easy, you can Easily catch yourself using this razor plate, especially if you do not have experience, but if you already have experience - and you want to try out the razor blade thing - I think you can get this from any um of the hair shops uh kempson Park, ABB if you're In joburg there's a shop called ibibi a Kempton park. That'S where you get all the hair stuff that you need, and fortunately, for me here in London, there's a shop that I discovered that has all the goodies and the nice things for girlies and hair. So I that's where I bought this one um, so I'm pressing on the wig so that it sticks. This is the part where I should have also been using a hair dryer, but the got to be glute spray. The nice part about it is that if you you use water, you just you activate it every time that you spray on a Mandy um on the on the on the on the glue yeah, and you can change your position, you can drag the wick forward. If you feel that it's not sitting nicely so as soon as you spray on the Water Joe menu, even even if so you apply in so I just using this elastic band that I bought also from AliExpress, it was recommended when I bought the wig. They recommended this elastic band, which I felt I needed, because I've always wanted it for a very long time. But if you don't have it, you can just use a head wrap because that's what I've also used in the past, you can just use a head wrap, but this part of the process. It does help because - and I think it's important to brush the hair before you stick. You put this thing on so that your so just brush the hair to the back before you use this elastic band, but I definitely I absolutely love it guys. I absolutely love this happened um I bought it from AliExpress, but enjoy everything Shiloh. Any hair shop should have this, so I'm going in now. I started off with a hair dryer. Hair dryer is what I used back at home before I bought this hot comp because in South Africa I was looking for a hot com for a very long time. I actually bought one, but it was not doing anything like I don't know my channel in so fortunately, when I got to the UK, I was able to buy this one. I should have looked at takealot in South Africa. If you need ever need anything, just go search, go! Take a look, take a look at the Amazon of South Africa. So just go check La Baguio. Take a look check out my reviews: do they love it? Is it hot check your temperature um? That will help so just go check out: Amma Amma how it comes. It take a lot um if you don't have the hot comp hair dryer and I should be able to do the job, especially if you're using emus like. I am right now because it means now it helps John Robin she would say weekly learner. It loses shape very easily. So I think that's the reason why it gave me a lot of work like it was a lot of work to put together and um shape. The wig and you know the installation for this week. I think it was the longest installation I had ever done simply because the hair is too soft and it loses shape very easily. So I'm going in with my hot comb as much as I need to as much as I need to I'm just going in with my hot comb in the last thing is really simple, because I wanted a side parting for this wig um and I am using Now, a brush that I put from Pep I've covered the tools that I use for my wigs on another video that I'm gon na be posting soon. I absolutely love these tools, this straightener as well. I'M gon na drop the details on my next video. This is a mask. This is like my curl okay, the straightener is like my girl, so I'm using this straightener um for for a week that probably if you did not buy the wig from AliExpress or if you it's an already existing week, I don't think you need a straight night. Scsc, a c there's hot, because this straightener is very hot. The straightener is very hot. Like most Traders yeah that's right now, as you guys can see, the thing is also this video is. Is you go with the straightener once and says so check out? My next video, where I cover the tools that I use for my hair, so I just want to straighten um the front. I just also want to go and make sure it was at the back. The wig looks nice, so I mean I sort of always like to straight, especially for this um installation, because what I was trying to achieve. I was trying to achieve a look. That'S almost um the wig for it to be almost curved in. If I may put it like that, and then of course, of course, the wig is installed, I'm going in with the foundation, because I had already applied a makeup for this installation and the reason was because um, so I'm just going in to fix when I was Installing the wig, I also bought this brush this. I love it so much back at home. I always just used a normal um toothbrush that I no longer used. It works perfectly fine, as you guys can see. Really. This is like it's up anyway, so I always used a toothbrush that I no longer use for my teeth, an old toothbrush, and then it did just the same. But the thing that I love about this, if you can't get it when you're buying from AliExpress, so that elastic came with this um teeth brush and it another comb. Did you see the other comb that I used? Um pinky that I used to section the hair, um and um. They came as a combo like that, so it has the elastic band, the small, pink comb and um the the the teeth brush kind of um comb, small comb um pan Billy. So I love it. So much because yeah so for this installation, I was trying to achieve a natural install. That'S why I keep combing um frontal. That'S why I keep combing them to the back, and the reason for that is that I did not want to do the installation that um, where I'm bringing all the edges to the to my forehead, I just wanted to achieve a natural install. So that's the reason why I just keep combing the hair with the smoke Combs to the back. I love this brush guys. I love it so much if you don't have it. Yes, you can still achieve this look, but if you can get it get it from the hair shops or maybe be from wherever just get it. So when I wan na when I want the hair to loosen up, I always use water. So as you guys, so that's what I used to um boost the creation of the edges that I was you know, because I did not want to do the installation in my edges. That'S just so the look that I wanted to achieve. If I feel like the hair has already dried because it got to be glue, layer, spray value and I turned into Goods. So if you want to unfreeze the first villagers, apply a man's just apply, amancy pad make sure the man's law will apply in within not on the lace because then so yeah on the actual wig and then seven is fine. You can just go over with your code to be loot spray again my sisters, then you can just use a hair dryer to stick the glue um to your forehead nicely when the hair has already been positioned nicely. So I always use watermina guys and at this point I actually feel like the wig is already giving, but because me I'm a perfectionist like one thing about me, my child, I mean I'm a perfectionist, shame I'm a perfectionist. I will overdo. I will overdo International necessary. So at this point this because actually ready to say right, say fine, say lovely, say, love eulogy, but there I was just trying to make sure that everything is perfect and the work is installed nicely. So I went over and over and over again with the straightener. Just to make sure which I achieve um the perfect shape that I had in my head, um that I had in my mind when I thought of this installation anyway, I did not plan the side parting. I just saw it fitting for me to do a side pattern for this installation simply because I did. I was not planning to spend a lot of time installing this, but I ended up taking a lot of time also, but I think in total it took me about 45 minutes about 45 minutes to install because it was a new installation. I don't think going forward. Very, I don't think it was a city because, on my introductory video, as I told you guys, you could see, it only took me about 10 minutes to install and there's another clue that I had always used when I was still in South Africa that I'm going To share with you, um that works very well with equal to beat loot spray, it's also from God to beat loot, um, it's transparent, I'm hoping that I can be able to share it with you guys. So, of course, that is the alcohol. That is the outcome. My child is a giving or what it do is he giving or what it do. I absolutely love it. I absolutely love, love, love, love, love, love, it's and, of course, black tattoo screenshots to be lovely. Thank you guys. So much for watching, don't forget to like And subscribe. Okay
