Make Your 4X4 Closure Look Like A Lace Frontal | Curly Hair

Hey babes welcome back to my channel, of course, i'm teaming up with curls curl here. This is not our first collab. All the details will be listed down in my description box below, as you guys can see. I have this really nice fluffy curly unit, which is a 4x4 closure, and i'm gon na be showing you how to get that closure unit to look more like a frontal and just a little bit more natural and easier to style. So this is what it looks like straight out of the gate. You guys can see. The lace on this is extremely thin, which i appreciate it looks like a transparent lace. More so than a light brown. I'M gon na go ahead and bleach the knots with my well uh developer and um. I guess that was what am i trying to say. This was the wella developing powder and the salon care 30 volume developers, so i'm gon na do a one part of each and then, of course, you'll get this kind of thick consistency, because we are not covering a large amount of the lace um. You really don't need much at all. What i like to do is one of my tricks is to use a plastic butter knife to actually evenly spread the product all over if you're, really good. Of course you can use your brush, but what i find is sometimes it will apply too much product in one area and that will kind of cause the bleaching uh powder mixture to go ahead and kind of seep through which can result in overly bleached knots. So you kind of want to do this a little bit at a time. Obviously i did speed up the video a little bit, so it's going to appear as though i'm moving a little bit faster than what i actually am. So that's that once you got everything pretty much smoothed out i'll, let this process for about 30 minutes max and then we'll pretty much just check it from here. So let us do its thing, and this is pretty much just what it looks like i'm actually going to need another wig cap or wig head, because um yeah this one's damaged, but as you guys can see, there is no bleach seeping through on either side. So once we've been able to go ahead and pretty much rinse everything out, we've shampooed we've conditioned um the hair, we're going to go ahead and tweeze this out. You guys i have a million videos showing you how to tweeze. Pluck your frontals lace closures, things like that! Here'S another one, i'm just taking my tweezers going in diagonal motion going backward just to literally kind of thin this out and then what i'm actually going to do is part off, probably about a half an inch of hair. Going towards the back just to further thin it out just to make sure we aren't causing any like false spots or anything weird, because you know, if you pluck the lace, you can definitely get a little crazy, real, quick. So take your time with it, i'm kind of just going to run through this um and to me it's really really easy. It makes a huge difference in different in your unit um, just by taking your time and really kind of customizing that front part. Even if you don't go crazy, it's definitely necessary that way. It doesn't look so wicking now. Another thing would like to do is go ahead and take some scissors not even really to create baby hair but to thin the hair out that way, it kind of fades into the hairline just a little bit better. Obviously, if you're a fan of the baby hair, you can definitely go ahead and utilize these babies. But for me, i kind of just you know: use it to help style the hair a little bit more and then from here we're going to go ahead and allow this to air dry. You can obviously use a diffuser if you want to, but i'm not going to do this, so i'm just showing you what the curls look like pretty much. The hair was still really really soaked wet. You can go ahead and apply like a leave-in conditioner. If you want some mousse a little bit of hair oil, those would be some of the things that i'll be adding onto this hair. But you guys look at the texture like it looks, really really really good. I like the way the coils are kind of like foaming, not foaming forming on each other. You guys can see everything's really uniform. The hair was really soft did not have a smell when i first brought it out of the packaging and all that good stuff. So you guys know, i love the cream of nature. Mousse you can use whatever it is. You feel comfortable with. For me, it just leaves a shine and not a heavy residue, some of the mousses that you guys will have out there kind of get a little sticky. This one does not. So i appreciate that then, i'm going over that with my paw mitchell, uh skinny serum, just to add a little bit of shine to it, not even that the hair really needed it, but just to kind of you guys can see how it kind of changed. The texture just a little bit not necessarily changed it, but kind of help. The curls pop out just a little bit more. So once you have this completely styled, you guys know. I have a handy um golden hot under the hood dryer hooded dryer. Am i saying that right, i can't talk today anyway, i'm gon na go ahead and sit this under here, allow it to dry for maybe about three hours. If i'm not mistaken, it took a while. But of course here we are with the wig cap on. I eventually ended up taking that off. Just because i didn't need it. I realized the knobs were bleached, so perfectly that yeah we're good. So here we are. The hair, of course, is completely dry lay down. This is just what it looks like straight out of the gate. You guys. I was loving this because the hair was really really soft. The hair was not frizzy at all and obviously, if you are wanting more of like a textured look, you can go ahead and kind of play with the curls a little bit but from here just kind of playing with the baby hair. Seeing how i want this to look - and that was that you guys know this is a middle part unit, so i did actually part it on the side and kind of twist the unit a little bit in the direction that i want. So if you want to do a middle part with this unit, you can, if you want to do a side left or right, you definitely can, and i wanted to do my best not to manipulate the curls too too much so i'm just kind of going under And kind of just shaking it out just to give it a little bit more um inside of this, but nevertheless guys i absolutely love it. Let me know your thoughts down below, leave any comments to questions there, but pretty much. That'S it for this. Thank you. Curls curls for teaming up. I will see you guys in my next video bye babies, but i wasn't wrong.
