How To Style A Lace Front Wig For Beginners! | Outre Yaki 24" Divatress.Com

Hey guys welcome back to my channel, so today I'm doing a highly highly highly requested video. You guys want to know how I style my wigs and how to make them look natural, and this is going to be a tutorial for beginners, because you guys have been asking me left and right on my wig reviews how to style them. How do I wear them? What do I do with my hair underneath? So I specifically chose this wig to do my tutorial with this. Is the outré Gaffey series 24 inch unit this one? I got from diva tres calm. This is my all-time favorite wig and I just thought it'd be perfect for a beginner tutorial, because it's already very well made and the parting is good. The lace is good and the hair is excellent. So I wanted to show you guys a beginner tutorial on this hair, so I actually have a few of these units and I do make a u-part wig and use them leave out. So whenever you guys see a picture of my hair straight, my hair is never straightened. It'S actually always a u-part wig. Sometimes I add my clip in hair extensions to my u-part wig, just to add more fullness and length, and I can show that in a different video, if you guys want to see that as well. But today I'm just going to show you the basic things that I do with my wigs. I know there's tons and tons of wig tutorials out there, but you guys specifically requested and you do one so I wanted to just show you guys the way that I do it and the way that I make my wigs work. So if you guys want to see more about how I style this wig to make it look natural, then please keep watching okay, so first things: first, I think I'm going to start actually with plucking the part. So, as you can see, it does have a thin part and that's just not very realistic. So what I'm going to be doing is just taking one hair at a time and just pulling them out just plucking going in and pulling and using your fingers can sometimes be better, especially when the lace is a little softer or a little less durable. Using your fingers will prevent the lace from breaking and from pulling and making a hole in it and you're just going to keep plucking until you're happy with the part that you created maybe a little bit more on the front here and, as you can see so Far, I have pulled out quite a few hairs. I think that's good. For now. You can always go in and reap luck and keep customizing it until you're happy with it, but I think for now I'm going to move on to cutting the weights. So I'm starting here at the ear table, I'm just going to pull the hair all the way back and I'm going to start cutting okay. So now I'm starting to cut the lace, I'm kind of not going to go straight across. So I'm going to kind of go with the angle of the hair and I'm going to make it kind of like a zigzag or like a soft zigzag shape, and this, and so it just doesn't look too fake on the scalp. And it's not just straight across you, so this cap actually has three clips in the front, so it has two on the side and this extra one right here, there's also one in the bottom and when I make my you part wigs, I cut here and I Sewed two clips on the side here, so if you guys want a tutorial on how I make my part wigs with this one, definitely let me know - and I can show you that as well, but I just wanted to show you like the inside cap construction. It does have the weft here and this mesh up the top for comfort, so let's go ahead and start putting this wig on so what I've done under here. Under all of this, I have another video showing this I'll put a little snippet on here and I'll. Also link the video, so you can see more in-depth, but what I do is part my hair into two sections and I don't know how to French braid or cornrow or Dutch braid, whatever you want to call it, I don't know how to braid. So what I do is just take my two different sections and braid it in a regular braid and then cross them in the back and pin up the other braid up and pin. So that's how my hair is underneath this, and I will link that video. If you guys want to see more in depth about how I do that braiding, but it's just too simple braids, and then I pin it up underneath this cap okay, so I'm going to go ahead and put it on. So what I like to do is just take it and flip it around the back. Here I want to do a middle part, so I'm going to make sure it's centered and I'm going to make sure the back is on first and then just bring it up into the front, find my clips and then clip it. Underneath my wig cap onto my natural hair, so it has some grit, then we're going to go back and click in this clip to the back of my head. Then you can just wiggle it around, make sure it's on there, okay. So this is how it looks after I put it on. As you can see, this hair is amazing, no tangling, it's soft and silky. So now we're going to keep customizing. So what I like to do, first, if you can see when I put it on it kind of got rid of my part here, so I'm going to just take a comb like this, and I'm just going to take this and slide it underneath the cap and Just kind of push my natural hair to the side and I'm going to make a part this way. What I'm going to do is just pick my concealer palette. This is from measurable difference. You can use my code Amanda on their website. If you want to get this palette - but I have this so I can match any skin tone, I'm going to be taking this top shade up here. This is called creme brulee and I want to take some concealer and I'm just going to be applying it in the part to blend everything together. So, as you can see, this part is still pretty dark and then this is where I made my kind of like fake part and I'm just going to be filling this part in with concealer and blending everything. So what I'm going to be doing is just taking my finger and kind of blending everything making it a little softer and if it's on the hair at all, I'm just going to blend that out. I'M going to be using the ORS or ORS olive oil as control, I'm going to be using this, and this is old toothbrush and I'm going to be flicking my natural baby hairs back. So it's just going to take some and just brush my baby hairs out of the way, and this just keep them in place and you can do make it cute and sleek. I'M also going to put some kind of right under the tip to kind of glue it down a little bit. So if I get some stronger gel, I could put it right there and kind of glue it down a little bit and also what you can do is just take a scarf put it down and wrap it for a few minutes like while you're doing your makeup Or something like that - and this is so it's going to be really flat and it's going to stay where you want it. So I'm just going to sit like this for a few minutes and then I'm going to be back and show you guys. The final results of how I make my wigs look natural, so I hope you guys like this tutorial. A lot of you guys have been asking about kind of like a beginner tutorial, and I wanted to show you guys this wig in particular, because I just think it's the best wig for dinner. As you can see, that was super simple and easy. It took no time at all and we could even customize it even more. We could make baby hairs from the actual wig. We could pluck out the parting section more. We could even make it into a u-part wig. The list is endless, so if you guys want to see any videos about first things I just mentioned, then definitely let me know in the comment section down below. I will leave all the details for this hair. This is from diva tress, calm, all kind of phase Amanda through a plus plus. So thank you guys so much for watching, and I will see you in my next video
