Braid Pattern For Your Lace Frontal Wig

I'M back, hey screw, bears long time, no see like. What'S the T grub where have you been, this has been like months. What'S going on, you guys, please forgive me. I thought every time I'm uploading here on YouTube. I'M apologizing we're taking like some huge obnoxious break from you guys. I miss you guys so much, but if you guys have been following any of my other social media pages, you would have known that I started back and finished cosmetology school. I only had like roughly nine weeks left in the program, and I started way back in the beginning of July. Finished off at the end of September had a little vacation in between, but uh. I'Ve been hardcore like focus on that and I just could not find the time to not only record the video but obviously like edited and uploaded for you guys on a fairly regular basis. So I just decided to kind of get my mind focused on school and just finish it off and finish it off strong. So that's what has been taking up the last part of my time and since I graduated I have actually started working in a salon here. In the city that I am well not really directly in the city that I live, it's a city with roughly 20 minutes from where I live, and I've just been getting my feet, wet being familiar with salon life and actually working with someone and really for someone. After working for myself, primarily for the last five six years, so it's just I've had an adjustment period that I had to make. I feel like out of all the excuses that I've, given you guys so far. I think that this by far is the best excuse. So you guys will definitely forgive me if you guys can tell by the title of this video. This video is very specific as to how I am wearing my hair. Under my lace, frontal units, I have been rocking lace, frontal units for like months and months months now, prior to that, the only units that I were really be comfortable with are just like the regular units to have like the lace closure. I love the versatility that you get the lace frontal, but I never really got comfortable with wearing lace, frontal units really until recently, and that was after I just got familiar with, like the mechanics of it - the capabilities of it and actually creating my own units with Lace, frontals in them and all that, so with that trial and error, I have tried several different braid patterns under my wig units and up until recently I really did not care about the importance of my braid pattern under the wigs. I just didn't care as long as my hair was braided. I don't care if it was for cornrows cornrows or ten cornrows as long as it was under there and it was flat and it wasn't gon na make. My wig sit two feet off of my head. That was the main goal and in a way, I still kind of feel the same way, but I wanted to show you guys the most effective Rae pattern, but I like doing under my lace, frontal units, specifically I'm not gon na - try to hype it up, make It seem like it's this intricate brain pattern that you got ta have you know 15 years of rating experience to even grasp or anything they are some straight bags. There'S straight backs there's straight back cornrows, but what I love about the simplicity of the straight backs is that it's relatively easy to do, and it does offer the most versatility that you can think of when it comes to wearing a unit with a lace, front tool And I get more into detail throughout the rest of the video, so I'm not gon na further complicate it you'll see it in the rest of the video. Before we get started, though, I will tell you that a hair that I am rocking for this particular unit that I made this is from milk and honey hair, beautiful, gorgeous brazillian straight hair. I absolutely love it. This is in the natural color. It'S a relatively dark natural black color, like it's almost really really flat so for this unit, this is gon na, be my dark horse, so she's gon na be jet black very soon. I guess this is the Brazilian straight. I think the lengths are 22 2018 and the closure is 18 as well, and I cut some layers in it, so I'm roughly about not even three full bundles in it. The closure is not only a frontal, but it is a 360 frontal. So I got the 360 frontal from milk and honey boutique as well. I know that I talked to you guys and head off enough. I'M back okay, but without further ado, let's go ahead and get right into the rest of the video, oh good. Oh my god. There'S nothing like that feeling of being able to physically access. I also realized that I probably have never showed you guys my real hair on this channel. I have revealed my real hair years ago on my MS Chris 82 channel, which is, I want to say, officially, inactive, because I have not uploaded anything on that channel since I launched Beauty MC square back in 2012, maybe 2013, like I literally, have a band at That channel and sorry about that, I just realized as a result of me abandoning that channel like totally starting this channel over here. A lot of my subscribers for the Miss Chris 82 channel are unaware that I switch channels over here so yeah. I need to do something about that, but that's neither here nor there. I just said that to say this. I showed my hair a few years ago on the Miss Chris 82 channel, and at that point I was completely natural. I just did like a transition from relaxed to natural clipping off my relaxed and as my throughout throughout the month war throughout the years. At that point, and since then I have done another sort of big chop on my hair and put a relaxer back in my hair, rocked a pretty severe haircut. I tried to get that itch for some of the shears to go on my head and chop things off and a couple of years back, I just was determined to say that that was the last time I was going to cut my hair, so my hair is Natural and this is as a result of about two and a half years of growth, no relaxed ends or anything. So this is my hair, you guys so, let's get started on the hair. I always have a rat tail. Comb fine-toothed threat tail comb and that helps me for obviously parting out the sections and making sure that all of my crinkly curly beautiful coily hair is nice and detangle prior to adding the cornrows to my hair. You can have a clip, but I use these elastic bands. These cloth elastic bands to kind of separate whatever here, I'm not rating from the previous section parts for my cornrow, so it just kind of helps to get my hair out of the way. And lastly, I use some kind of heavy oil or grease for the hair to kind of help lubricate the hair as I control it. It also allows me to keep all the hair in place. As I quarrel it's kind of hard to explain, I don't usually use these wax, but this is the first thing that's more readily available, since I'm kind of doing some late spring cleaning and my home, so I'm using this Dax black beeswax. For that typically, I would use like some argon oil edge control if the edge control, but it's kind of like a cross between a heavy grease and so something that's gon na give me a nice sticky grip to my braids. Now my hair has been these tangle with the white tooth comb and I went through it again with like a Denman brush, just to make sure that I don't have like real live snags or knots or anything on my hair. So that's why it's okay! For me to use this fine toothed comb for the styling portion of this video, I'm looking into my mirror right here. So if you see me turning this way, I guess it makes it like a better view for you guys and what I do with the cornrows is like for my hair and probably many women's hair. The hair around my edges are a little bit shorter, they're, not really long and thick and full. I really restoring my hairline. So my hair around the edges or the perimeter of the head is a much shorter and it's a lot finer. So I try not to pull it or grip it or put any real tension on it. So, for whatever I can't easily grip into the cornrow, I just kind of leave it alone and at the end of adding all the curls in my hair, I just use a little. You know light oil to kind of keep it lubricated. It may be edge control. So lay it down. If I need it, I really don't really worry about edge controls. Just this is pretty much a great pattern to go under wigs. So so with that being said, this little corner right here - I'm not gon na - even worry about adding that. To my cornrow, so I'm just gon na pre section the hair to prepare for my four low. It'S probably easier that you have like more than one mirror. So you can see the front this side and in the back, if you're doing this on your home. But if you're not really too, I guess anal about how straight the parts are like, I'm not, then it really shouldn't even matter now. I have some short hair in the very nape area of my head and if I can't easily rip it without pulling and tugging and causing any real attention, I don't worry about writing that either. So I'm all about making this as comfortable as possible. So I'm gon na take my cloth, elastic band and just pull the rest of my hair and a ponytail to keep it away. Then I'm gon na take some of my beeswax and I'm going to apply it to the hair. That is away from the part just to make sure that there's no stray hairs. That'S going to climb into this braid and then I'm just gon na use the residual. That'S on my hand and run it through the section of what my total will be. I'M peacing out that little area right there, because I want to make sure I do not braid it and for everything else. I just start my tour mode. You want to make sure that the tension is only on the actual cornrow and that like pulling the hair from the scalp. Also that product makes it so much easier for you to control your attention and to make sure like the cornrow itself is tight. But you're. Not pulling it from the scalp like you're pulling brains out, so I'm gon na take it all the way down. Whatever short pieces is left, I just Mishra push it away from the brave, so I don't pull on it too much and then I'm just gon na braid. This all the way to dance. So I'm gon na move on to the next part row and as I go through to about, I would say, 3/4, almost 3/4 of the way down with the cornrow. I add the tail end of this. You want to make sure that the party is as clean as possible. It'S hard for me to to view like super neat as far as if it's like, seamless all the way through. But if you make sure that it's very clean, which means that there are no stray hair, as a you know, allowed access from the prepartum area to the cornrowing area, like that's your major concern, so just try to take your time with it. So I'm going to begin the second cornrow again, I'm going to be very, very careful with the fact that my hair is very very fragile as most people's hair is around the perimeter and I'm not going to pull too tight. So I'm going to attempt to just simply cornrow it, and if this hair pops out of the forum row, I want to let it pop out, I'm not gon na try to stretch it and and make it fit. I'M just gon na take my time in cornrow baby steps, baby steps an easy way to kind of control. Your attention is, if you take your time, I don't care how skills you are with braiding you're, almost always going to pull your hair. If you find yourself kind of rushing and speeding through the process, because you you're not really aware of how tight you're pulling the hair you're just like go back through so I know like as for me, especially at the beginning of the cornrow, I take it a Little bit slower than maybe the remaining of the hair, because it here is so fragile and it's so easy for that tension to kind of get away from you. So at around this point, and it's all depending on the length of your hair. But around this point I grab the end of the previous cornrow and add it to this tomorrow. I'M taking a break there and again that's just point to that's like a finishing effect like it just makes it easier just finish off the braid that way by by adding the previous rate to your new braids, so that exit end of it all. You don't have like these, like 10 or 15, and ends of the braids that you have to kind of flip back up or you know, sew down, and it's bulky in the back. So now I'm just going to continue with the same kind of partying and pattern that I have on this side and try to mimic it as close as possible to this side. Okay, so I'm done with everything, and I have those two little areas that I chose. Not to deal with as far as writing them into my cornrows, so what I'm gon na do is I'm just gon na take some of this cream of nature, perfect edges with argan oil and it's just an edge control, and I'm just going to apply that to My little sideburns, I'm gon na also add that to just kind of lay them back into the cornrows. You put a scarf on for a few minutes and just to kind of allow the product to set in you, don't have to have the world's best edge control. For this part, it's simply my way of just making sure that the hair is included in the cornrows. As much as possible, so if you have very strong, very dense and very long edges and you can include it in the entirety of the cornrow, you may not even need to do this step but again, for me, I'm just very, very careful around that part of The hair - this is pretty much the right pattern. The brains are not super super small they're about roughly a finger like an index finger with kind of all around as close to a finger width as possible and again I just think that that is a workable size. Cornrows the size of the corn rolls will vary from the density of your hair. The length of your hair just find a whiff that makes the most sense to make sure that your hair lays as flat as possible. I don't have the longest hair and it'll have the most full of hair, so an index finger width is small enough for me to have like a flat surface, and the clean meat party allows me to have more versatility. Should I choose not to wear a noon? Stocking cap they're my lace unit, Hey so here's a close-up on the hairline, I'm still kind of working on it because I don't really want to like depend on baby hairs to kind of help, camouflage the look of lace and make it look natural. I totally get why baby hairs aren't there. It definitely does help, but I am working on a way that satisfies me enough that I don't have to really depend on it as much, and this way it's pretty decent. What I've done is I mean if you look real hard or maybe you don't have to look that hard? You can see where the lace begins and everything, and you can really see it now, because it's a little dirty from my previous foundation and oil and products and stuff that kind of builds up here. It'S not super clean. What I would normally use is like some kind of holding spray with a little bit of shine to it and spray it right around the lace and it makes the lace kind of disappear into the skin a little bit better. I don't really like to put makeup on top of it, to camouflage it, because I just feel like the makeup kind of settles into the the texture of the lace like I I feel like it makes it more visible. It may make it look closer to the skin tone, but I think that it makes the lace more visible, so using a product like a hairspray kind of makes it look more like skin, because it's a little bit shinier, it's not as mad. I guess so. I would use that and that's all I use I didn't use any like glue or anything right here. Oh just right, this is my thermals right, but now just take it I'll just sit it there push it back and it just makes it a little better. For my taste, because again I don't like to like rely on baby hairs to help me do that, and sometimes you can go out of control with baby hairs. Your baby hairs be like 15 inches long and it's real, thick and you're just doing like finger waves on the sides. It'S just too much. Okay, yeah I mean it. Can it can get crazy and I just don't a little bit of baby hair, never hurts anyone, because we do have like that. Fine hair around the hairline, so that does lend to make it look a little bit more realistic but especially since I rock very sleek hairstyles, with this particular unit having like no baby hairs and making it look as sleek and polished as possible, really lends to. I guess the aesthetic of this particular wig unit going out this is gon na, be the unit that I do. Those really beautiful waves on everything is just like crisp and clean. So I'm not really worried about a baby here.
