My Curly Human Hair Wig Routine! | Kinky Curly Lace Wig W/ Kinky Edges | Glueless | Ft. Hurela Hair

Foreign, so in today's video I'm going to be showing you guys, my curly human hair, wig routine, is when I first get a wig, I wash it and everything one of my subscribers. Her name is Sandra. She, basically in her comment. She was like she was highly considering purchasing a human hair, curly wig, and she wanted to know what my process was to like. Maintain it, and you know just prepare it before wearing it. So in this video I'm going to be demonstrating it on this Kinky Curly Edge wig from hairless hair, so shout out to harilla hair for sponsoring today's video. So if you want to see my curly hair routine, then keep on watching okay, while I'm showing you guys the unboxing of this wig, I'm gon na go ahead and read the specs for you guys. So this is the harilla hair kinky curly wig. This does come with kinky edges, Kinky, Curly edges. This is 150 density, comes in 20 inches, so I'm going to let you guys watch the rest of the unboxing and then we'll get into bleaching these knots. Okay. So the knots on this wig they were pretty dark and I wanted this to be a really nice install. So I'm gon na do something that I haven't done in a while, which is bleach my knots. So I have my mixing bowl. My 30 volume developer. Some purple shampoo and my powder bleach, so I put about two scoops in here of the powder bleach at first and then I just kind of eyeball it because you want the consistency to be kind of like frosting or like toothpaste, so just play around with the Measurements um, you should be able to have your brush stand up in it without it toppling over. So I'm going to be mixing it and then you'll see the brush kind of topple over because it wasn't a thick enough consistency. So I added some more of the powder bleach um to the mixture and it was the right consistency. So I took the wig and I put it upside down and I am just going to take the mixture and put it on top of the lace. I'M not pressing down really hard because we don't want it to go through the lace and seep onto the hair, so I'm using a light pressure and I'm applying it all to the lace there and then I put some some aluminum foil over the top. So it would, you know, activate it and let it process faster. So I kept this on for 40 minutes and then these nuts are pretty stubborn, in my opinion, so it didn't take like I wanted it to um. So I washed the bleach mixture off and everything and I looked at the knots they did lift and get a little bit lighter, but they were still not light enough for me. So what I ended up doing was re-bleaching the knots uh using 40 volume developer. This time, and because this is a higher volume of the developer, it it processed a lot faster. So, instead of 40 minutes, I only kept it on for like 15 to 20 minutes, but you have to keep checking in your your knots to make sure they're not over bleached, so just periodically go and check your knots. So I put the aluminum foil back on it. I rinse it off. Of course, the lace um. The knots do get a little bit more brassy and orange, but that's why we have that purple shampoo. So they did lift and the knots look a lot more small and that's going to be really good with making the that's going to be really good for making the install a lot more natural. So I took the purple shampoo and I put it on the lace and I let it sit on the lace for about 10 minutes. While I was doing something else, just just let it process a little bit, so it can take away some of that brassiness. So I kept mine on for about 10 minutes and then I rinsed it off and after I rinsed off the purple shampoo, I went ahead and shampooed and conditioned this wig. I used the Mayo Rosemary mint shampoo, that's what I shampooed it with and for the conditioner. I use this inner sense, hydrating cream conditioner, it's a brand that I use on my natural hair. So after I washed and conditioned this hair, I did twist the hairline up a little bit because it was a little bit thick and I'm using my Continuous Flow spray bottle just to wet down the hair and I'm going to wear this wig as a side part. So I went ahead and created a curved side, part with my rat tail comb, and then I am going to I'm going to take some of my Nairobi foam and just you know, kind of mold the top, and I could have done that with my shea moisture. Mousse, but for some reason I did that and then I kind of shaped the hairline a little bit with the kinky edges that it comes with. So I'm taking my shea moisture, curl mousse and I'm going to be clumping and defining the curls. So I took my travel size of the Felicia leather whip brush and then I ran the comb. I ran the brush through the hair to Clump the curls, and then I took individual sections and I kind of shingled the curls to make them more defined. You don't have to do this, you can just Clump the curls with the with the brush fresh, but I just wanted them a lot more to find. So I did this process all over the head and I'm going to let you guys watch that process foreign foreign guys, so I'm back. It'S actually been two days since this wig has dried. I just let it dry on my mannequin head. I didn't mention this in my Amazon wig Essentials, video that I recently posted watch it if you haven't, especially if you're a beginner, and you are looking for all of the wig Supply Essentials - that you need for a good, install watch that video. But I should have included my mannequin head here. This is a canvas mannequin head for a 23 inch circumference head, that's the size of my head, and I got this new wig stand for Christmas here. So I do a lot of prepping of my wigs and stuff on my mannequin head and my wig stand um and I let them you know air dry and everything on those. So this is what the hair looks like after it's been air dried, it is beautiful. I hope you guys can really get that curl pattern on camera. I'M going to go ahead and cut the lace and apply this. I'M probably going to go ahead and cut it on the mannequin head, I'm just going to cut slightly in front of the hairline okay. So I have gone ahead and cut off the lace here I feel like this is going to be a good, install this lace. So today I cut my lace off with a razor while it was on my mannequin head. I usually just use my smaller scissors, but we'll see how this looks and I adjusted my straps because this cap, I don't know what size it is. But it's pretty large on my head and I do have a larger head. So I'm I adjusted the adjustable elastic band within the cap, so it'll be easy to possibly wear it. Glueless and I say possibly because I don't know. If I'm going to okay, I could cut some um some hair off the ears. So I need to fluff this out and I do think I'm actually going to cut some of the hair off the ears on the side over here, because it's fine, because my natural hair, it's not this exact curl pattern but having my own edges out on the Side is gon na work well with this hair and it's okay to cut some of the wig. If you have to to make it more customized to your head, I am just going to take some Garnier Fructis antifreeze serum just put a little bit on my hand. So I can fluff this hair out without it getting frizzy, really pretty curl pattern. So I want to soften up some of the curls um and give them some more weight. So I'm just taking certain like smaller pieces, just certain sections and just twisting it up and it'll dry, probably by the time I do my makeup, not the whole area like I did the other day, just certain areas like the ends and any spots that are a Little bit frizzy, okay, I want to experiment and see what, because I'm recording and pretty much natural Lighting in front of a window which concealer is gon na or Foundation, is gon na work best for my lace. So I'm going to start off with my concealer here. This is j13 from Juvia's place and I'm going to use this um high definition brush that I got from. I think this is shot miss a so. I have some on my brush here and I'm gon na put it underneath. I don't really do this um anymore, but I just just trying to see what what can happen with the color of my lace, because it hasn't been um working that well outside you know, and my lace and everything looking good and outside is really important to me, Because I've had some situations where the my lace and stuff looked a mess outside, and that's why I do sunlight tests for you guys, because I know in real life. It'S just no of benefit to you guys for something to look good on camera and then in real life. It looks bad. You know it's no benefit to me either, because I can't stand that just putting it underneath my legs. Oh that looks so much better. It looks a lot better, it's not perfect, but that looks much better after tinting it. It looks pretty good. I'M gon na do a glueless install as best as I can so I am going to start to use bobby pins, certainly on the sides over here to kind of stretch it and create tension. So I'm going to hook. Would that look right? I think it will yeah that's gon na look great okay, so stretching right here to create some tension and I'm folding some of the sides under because we don't need that. Taking a bobby pin - and I'm gon na place it under here and the good thing about this being a kinky edges wig, I have kinky edges so right here. I can just leave that how it is - or I can like emphasize, that with my own kinky edges, which I will so I'm just taking a rat tail comb and just kind of pulling my own out right there, foreign foreign, you guys, saw the process of me. First uh, just you know, trying on the wig and seeing what it was like reaching the knots on this wig to make it look more natural, shampooing and conditioning this wig and how I got the curls like how I get my curls together, and so I decided To use my Juvia's Place, concealer in shade 13 and this brush here that I got from shop, miss a this is a F10 brush, but I'm sure you can use any brush. It'Ll do the same thing and it actually worked very well with tinting my lace and getting it to look more natural, so um, I did do a sunlight test for you guys and I did it without makeup and the lace to me looked very good now. Of course, it's always going to be lace, so you're going to see it a little bit, but it looks better than so many of my um installs lately. This one was really really good. It looked good without makeup um and I attribute to I attribute that to applying my wig in natural lighting right now, I have my studio lights going because I'm done with my application and everything and on camera it might if it comes off light or anything on Camera I kind of don't care because in real life the lace looks really good outside so and without makeup applied. So I think I'm going to be doing that with my human hair. Wigs and my synthetic lace - frontal wigs, like applying my concealer under nice and just you know letting it dry because it it tinted my lace very well - and this is a glueless install. I don't have this glute down - that's my curly hair, routine um. In her comment, I think she said something about this: the curly wigs like dry out. They do dry out they're, very high maintenance, even though I feel like Curly human hair. Wigs are super easy compared to like body wave wigs, because you have to pull out. You know your hot tools or whatever and curl it up and do all that stuff, but with kinky, curly, wigs or curly. Wigs after you've applied your product, your mousse and you've set your curls and you let it dry, it's ready to go, but will it always stay? You know the level of definition or whatever that you want. It won't because it performs like human hair, because it's human hair, so if it's raining outside it's going to respond just like it would with your natural hair, it'll swell up and do all the things. So keep that in mind this, that's the good thing about synthetic wigs, synthetic wigs once you have it, how you want it, it won't really respond to the elements like that, but human hair, wigs do so keep that in mind, and I think she also asks how Do you store this wig? How do you store your your kinky curly, wigs or your curly wigs um, I'm gon na do actually record uh how I store my wigs video right after this. It won't go up immediately after this, but you guys will see see that soon. But with my curly wigs and my kinky curly wigs, I tend to put them in satin bags because they do dry out yeah. So it's going to preserve a little bit of the moisture in your wig. But if you don't, if you put your, you know, Kinky, Curly or curly wig and even a satin bag, if you open it up like over a month later or something like that, it's going to be dried out, so you'll have to wash it again and either Wash it again or add, more mousse and water to you know, activate the curls again so um most companies like her really hair. They provided a silk bag. So you can store your wig in this like satin bag here and I every human hair company that sends me a satin bag. I usually keep them because they're very convenient to have so um yeah. So as far as this wig, I'm so glad that I took the extra time to bleach the knots, because I haven't been doing that - I haven't done that in probably two years or something like that see the difference with it looking natural. But of course I've showed you installs without bleaching or knots, so you don't have to do that uh. The only con I have with this wig was that the knots were not bleached, but harilla. Hair is a more affordable company. So you have to consider that you have to consider that when you are purchasing for more affordable companies like this, it wasn't too much trouble, but it this the knots were pretty stubborn and I did have to bleach them twice to make sure they were to my Liking, the curls are very pretty, of course, to shea moisture, first free frizz, free curl, mousse and the Felicia Leatherwood combo is just it works every time and the curly edges on this wig. I actually enjoy them this time, just because it helped so much was like you know the glueless install and camouflaging. You know any mistakes you might have like this is a glueless install and I feel like it looks really good and different lighting situations. I did have some shedding with this wig during the washing process, but I did bleach it bleach the knots twice, so that has something to do with shedding. So I'm not gon na put that on the harilla hair. That'S more to me, bleaching the knots um, but overall this is a really nice wig and I'm glad I put some elbow grease into it. And if you want your wig to be at its best, especially if you're paying a more affordable price you're going to have to do a little bit more to it, to make it its best.
