How To: Add Color To Curly Clip Ins| Betterlength

Hey guys so before you say anything i know i know another clip-in video, but i wanted to come to you all to show specifically how i add color and highlights to my curly clip-ins. I have a previous video that showed this technique on a headband wig. So now i'm doing so on these with this technique, you can take the color as high up as you want, but i love the colored ends. Look so if you want to see how i got this color just keep on watching. So here are my clippings and i'm just showing you guys how they look beforehand. Um they are kind of dusty, so this video will be revamping them. Here are the items that i will be using um for this color tutorial. You can find these products at your local beauty, supply store and at some walmart's i do prep my station, so i'm in my bathroom, so i just want to make sure i put down something so i'm not making a mess. I will be using the color box die on some of my clip ins and i will be using the bw2 and the 30 volume developer on other parts. So you guys will see why in a second, the little booster pack that they have. I think that's just bleach and it helps to lift the hair a little bit more when you're doing color and that's just what i poured in and shook it up. The box comes with gloves, but i like to use my own because they're a little more sturdy. So here i'm prepping my bleach for some clip-ins. I do use 30 volume developer in my bw2 and i'm just mixing that up to where it's not too thick like when you're trying to bleach your closure or your frontal. But you want this kind of runny, but not like loose, because you want it to saturate um the hair strands and it really work its way in there. I do take a rubber band and tie off each clip-in bundle. I personally dye my hair within the bundle state because it's curly hair, i just make sure i really get in there and saturate each strand. If you do not use a rubber band, that's totally fine, just leave it open and you guys can color it like that. So for this clip i will be using my bw2 powder. If you guys can see it doesn't have that much color. So i use the bleach to lift the hair to like that brown color and then on my clip-ins, where i already have color, i will be using my box dye to kind of make that color more vibrant and have it popping so some of my clip-ins, if They are completely like a natural color. I will be using the bleach bw2 powder, but if it has color already, i will be using my box dye to just enhance that color and just get it popping once i work that bleach in i do take my aluminum foil and i close it on off And i put it to the side to let that process um. I just see people use aluminum foil. I think i understand why you know it kind of helps the process quicker, but i'm not a professional. So i don't get me to lying. So here is a clip in that already has some color, as you guys can see um it's kind of dusty, so i use my box dye um solution that i just mixed up and i put that on my ends. So you guys will see me working that in just making sure that it's saturated and i'm getting every strand um within that hair bundle always work your product in and make sure you're getting inside of each strand and then flip over and repeat the same process on The other side of the bundle, so i'm going to repeat that process with a few more clip-ins again if they have no color or barely have color, i'm using my bw2 powder and if it already has color i'm using that honey blonde box dye to enhance the Color and just get it more vibrant. So i only have a few clip ins left and i repeat that process based off if it has color or no color, and then i let it sit and process for about 30 minutes to an hour. And then i come back and press it out. So here is how it's looking at it's processed, for i think this was 45 minutes and all i do is slide off the aluminum foil and then i am able to rinse it out. You guys can see from this step. You can see if your color is going to be bright or not like. If you don't see that color once you pull it out of the aluminum foil, then you may need to process it again. Um and you will be able to see it popping but you'll be able to tell if some hair is colored when you can actually see the color and you haven't even rinsed it out. Yet i'm going in with my shimmer light shampoo and just to help tone that down if it does have any brassiness, the shimmer lights helps to cancel any of that out after shampooing. I do go in with the conditioner that comes with the colored box die and i work that in let it saturate and let it just sit for a second and then i go in with my own personal conditioners that i love one is a camille rose, honey Nectar as well as my ors, coconut conditioner, so those are my favorites. You guys can use your conditioner of choice, but i do go in first with the conditioner that comes in the box dye whenever i'm working with curly hair, especially these clip-ins. I use my fingers and i work it in and i detangle only with my fingers as you guys can see, it did have a little shedding, but it's not going to be a lot when you're using your fingers once i actually finish, detangling it right there. That'S the shedding from all my tin clippings. This is how the hair looks damp and then this is how the hair look dry. So, as always, thank you guys so much for watching.
