Diy Ghana Braided Wig Without Lace Closure | Diy Braided Wig Using Xpression | Belle_Graciaz

Hey guys welcome and welcome back again to my channel, i am bob graces and in this channel we create videos surrounding hair, which is what you are watching right now sewing, which is another passion of mine and vlogs, basically just documenting my life. So if one or all of these are things you're interested in then this is the channel for you. So in this video right here we're going to be showing you how to make this braided wig right here like this wig right here. I love it so much so if you'd like to see that then keep watching okay guys so for that week right here, the first thing you want to do is make your um pre-braided attachments or pre-braided hair and guys. I have an in-depth video on how i do this, so if you want to see that i'm going to leave that end screen for you to watch after you're done watching this video, okay, so yeah, basically, you want to make um your braids or prepare your braids And i'm doing the ghana weaving, which is basically me, braiding and um, adding braids to it as i keep braiding on so guys, i don't use if it's scanner, weaving or feeding braids - i i don't know the difference but yeah. I'M basically doing that as i keep braiding, i keep adding because the more you add the bigger the braids becomes. So it goes from this thin to big um braids, like you see from the previous previously braided ones, hello, so guys after you're done making a good number of the braids. You want to start putting it on the wig cap. So the first thing you want is your recap, which is this dom wig cap or the mesh wig cap right here and i've had a lot of people. Ask me, or rather a few people, ask me what we cut this is so i'm going to leave a link in the description box for you to go check it out and see what week. Um recap: i use in most of my videos and after that, i'm going in with this um lace net for lace closure nets. I'M just sewing that in front right there after sewing it i'm just going to cut out the excess ones we do not need and after cutting off the excess ones, we do not need. We are going to now cut off the um wig cap, where the lace wig or the lace closure is at because we don't want that showing beneath the lace closure so guys. For the bottom part, i'm going to be doing a box braid, which is what i'm doing right now and i'm going to be crocheting a few strands onto the wig cap. First then, i just spray it like so so, okay guys, so i basically braided like a few at the bottom. I think i braided about four to five at the bottom, just to make sure that we close the the ends there, because we aren't um using the gunner braids all the way down. So it doesn't look. It doesn't look too fake, okay guys. So this is what the front is now looking like. I already started putting them because i wasn't sure what style i was going for, so i had to initially start by putting on a few of the braids and just know what i was working with, even though i still went back to change a few things. But i mean thus the initial style was still there. So what you want to do is you want to know where you're going to place each braid and you're just going to pin that down, because you want to this is just better for me because after i am done, placing all of them. I know what i'm working with you wouldn't want to sew your braids down as you go, because what, if you end up making a mistake or um the space isn't enough, so i love to pin everything down first then, i can also make adjustments afterwards, food um. Okay, guys i have to zoom in because i want to make a zigzag, um style right now, so basically you'd want to pin it down. First then, pin where you'd want the zigzag to start then pin again, i don't know if i'm explaining this well, but i think it's visually understandable, um just pin as you keep making your zigzag that way, it is just easier for you to turn around throw it Away see if you'll let go of me when you're not holding me so guys. This is what it's looking like so far. We still have a lot to do um, but it's you know it's coming along and, as you can see, i did so many styles on this wig here and yeah. This is me basically creating all that zigzag so guys, as you can see, i ended up changing the style over there. This is why i said that it's better for you to pin everything down first before you start sewing or doing whatever you want, because if you sew it down as you go whatever mistake, you make it's just going to be like that, because i mean, if you Go back to start um removing this thread, then i feel like that's just a lot of work, so the best thing is just to pin everything down before you start sewing or using your glue gun so guys after uh. This is basically what it's looking like. After pinning every single one of them down and for this project right here, i'm going to be using my glue gun so guys. I want to say one thing: um when you are using a foam like mine, a mannequin head that is foam like i would advise you put some sort of nylon to you know as some sort of demarcation between the wig and the manikin, because you're using your Glue gun and because i was using my glue gun the glue, ended up sticking to the wig cap, sorry to the wig itself or the mannequin, and i had to just be careful when i was taking off the wig. So i know i don't end up ruining my entire work, so if it was the case that i had something to, you know prevent the glue from sticking to the mannequin that wouldn't have happened. So i'm just telling you guys. My mistake, like i like to tell you guys, because hey we're all humans and we do make mistakes so yeah. I'M basically doing that, and another thing i would also advise, is not to use too much glue gun like i did, because i used so much glue gun some of the glue um ended up. You know poking out and yeah there's another mistake i made as well. So you'd want to be mindful of these two things when you're using a foam like mannequin like mine, you don't want to put something in between the mannequin and the wig cap, and you'd also want to make sure you don't use way too much glue, gun or Way too much glue, and after doing that, that's basically it, and this part right here is optional, so i'm just putting baby hair on the um on the frontal part of the wig. So, like i said this part is optional, you should not want baby hair. That is totally fine um, but i felt like baby hair would actually look good on this week right here, so i decided to put it so guys if you've gotten to this point of the video.
