How To Install A Lace Closure | Beginner Friendly | Bohemian Curly Hair

Let'S get straight into the video, so i'm starting with some fresh great back braids and i did go ahead and slick. My edges back and everything like that. I'M gon na go ahead and put my cap on and we're gon na start the ball cap method. Um in this video i did do the ball kit method a little different in my last video. I use got to be free spray, but this time i use my actual lace glue. I heard that this gives you a better outcome, so i wanted to try it and i think i kind of agree i kind of like this better than using the freeze spray. So yeah all you're going to do are you seeing me do now is just applying one layer of the um lace glue on my edges and i went in adding more glue on the sides, but i realized that girl you're not even doing a front tool. You'Re doing the closure, so the sides really don't matter but yeah, i'm going in just add more glue on the sides trying to get it to stay down. Staying tight to make sure you know it's stuck it's stuck there. Then you can let it air dry for a couple of minutes and you want it to dry completely like you want it to be fully dry before you apply the makeup on it, you don't want to apply any makeup on it, while it's still wet still taking Anything like that, you want it to be completely dry and then you add the makeup on top of it. In the process of me dying, my hair, i did accidentally get color on my lace. So what i'm going to go in and do is um use this even new york, tinted lace. It'S the skin tone, medium, dark brown and i'm gon na spray it on my lace. So that way it can lift my color. You know it can look like. I bleach the knots, even though i already bleached the knots, but i got dye on my lace. So yeah i'm gon na go in and use these i'm not gon na lie. I was a little nervous. I was scared because this is my first time using this braid and i wasn't sure if it was gon na, be my color or nothing like that, but it ended up coming out right. So yeah you can most definitely depend on the even new york tinted lace. You know to get that color back and i did go in and add makeup onto the lace as well. I did pluck my closure off camera like i stated before. That'S not something i have mastered yet once i have it down. I most definitely record that part for you guys but um until then i'll continue to do that off camera. Now i'm going to go in and add my laser glue and another method that i learned to apply the glue for the back when putting the glue on there. You don't want to just put it on the hairline. You want to put it on the hairline and the cap as well, and when rubbing it in, you want to make sure you're going further back like don't just rub it in on the hairline. You want to make sure it's wide enough. If you kind of understand what i'm saying and you want to make sure you're rubbing it all the way in like you want it to be even even later, you do not want any chunks of glue anywhere make sure you rub it in evenly. So while i'm editing, i realize i skipped a part omg before you put your closure on y'all cut the size of your closure off and if you don't know what i'm talking about, you can go. Look at my previous video me doing. My bob and you'll see exactly what i'm talking about and i also showed you how to cut them off. I am so sorry. I was too focused on getting that color out of my lace. I forgot to cut it off, but it still came out good, so yeah y'all. It took me so long to get this thing and lose like. I was really struggling for a good minute. I really would so now it's time to start cutting the lace. I cut straight up the middle and then from the middle to the outside, so i tried to use the razor, but i'm not gon na lie. I did not like that. So on the other side i ended up using scissors. I feel like that's more effective to me. I didn't like the razor at all and now i'm going in and adding glue onto my lace because it was lifting a little bit, so you just add a little amount of glue and put it on there. That'S all you have to do now, y'all about to see me struggle trying to do my edges. Y'All it just is something i just do not have mastery yet, but i am slowly but surely getting better so yeah, i'm about to struggle a little bit. I'Mma get it eventually, i am gon na get it so i ended up going in the bathroom and using my handy dandy, mirror in the bathroom, and i ended up getting my edges the way i wanted them to be, but unfortunately i did not get that on Camera but yeah, so i did my edges off camera and then i wet my hair and then i blew it out because i didn't like that wet look like it was giving very much rick james. I didn't like it so i blew it out and now all i'm doing is going in with that wet stick and the hot comb, so just lay it down flat, okay period, it's very much giving. I did good on my edges this time forever. This is probably the best edges i've ever done, but it did take a lot of attempts. Y'All like i had to do this over and over and over again, but i finally achieved the look that i wanted. I didn't like how you could tell that my closure was shorter than the rest of my hair, like that was a no for me, so i ended up adding more tracks on that side towards the bottom. So that way it can look. You know fuller. This is the final look. I hope you guys enjoy, don't forget to like comment and subscribe and be on the lookout for more videos.
