Hey y'all, I decided to film a very, very short tutorial. I want to do it yourself, clip. In extension, the front of mine was unaware that she can make her own clip. In extension, I have been doing this for three years, so I thought I was insane that she didn't know how to do this and you've been sleeping under a rock like she has. This. Video will definitely help you out if you have been thinking about or you currently buy your clippings party mate, like I said, I've been wearing it for three years. It'S the best invention since since weave itself, so some pros and cons of the clip ins they're easy to install clip them in clip them out wash your hair whenever you change your hairstyle whenever and you know, length color whenever you want to their say for the Most part you just got to make sure you clip them in and clip them out. You know safely yeah but pros. The cons, of course, are the fact that you have to clip them in click a mouse one big con with them. You have to blend your natural hair into the clip in so my natural hair is out right now. If I had just washed it and put my clippings and I look a hot mess, you have to make sure if your hair blends in with the clippings, that's pretty much the biggest con for me, because you're still kind of putting heat on your your natural hair. You know, but I really don't add too much heat to it. I have a way to make my hair wavy without editing. That'S probably tutorial for another time, but that's the biggest con of all to me is blending. You know, I don't want you looking ratchet in these streets with my hair, not flipping to my hair cuz. This is my hair. I pay for it. So obviously I'm not bleeding to well appear, so I have a hat on that's an alternative. Also, my hair is thin. Sometimes if I'm like running my fingers through it and I'm in the club or something I'll fill my track slide down. I guess you can say Clippers are not as secure as we play. I never have a problem with them falling on. My head room, so, let's get started all you really need to buy they're called quickly fifths. They usually come two to a pack. They range from 1919 to $ 2.99 to 15 degrees. Firestorms go to with yes, don't say that already, and they basically just have a little comb on them and they have holes at the top. Some of them at for some of them have two. So you need a few packs of these. I usually have about six tracks in my hair, so I usually by about 20 about 20 total. So that's not next twenty divided, yet ten packs. Well, it really depends on how many clip fins you have to here. I don't really like big big weaves. My head is our today's. I don't need that much more hair to draw attention to the size of my head. So I just you know: preference. If you like, big big weeds you'll need more clips, you can use a hair needle, but I use a rivet uh needles yeah. I have has it all the time they work well and some thread. I would recommend using black or dark-colored thread, I'm using going to say close and purposes. My thread is already attached to my needle and already do and then I have an old track here. I buy my hair movie supply store in pack, I'm laughing because I know bundles there's some nice gray express hair up here, but I'm very frugal. I play around with different brands. I'Ve tried to VESA Saba bells. It just really depends on what should be just blast doors having the best oil to be honest, plus, I think you get more hair, then you would bundle. Not a hundred percent show I'm not really a hair connoisseur. I can't get too too deep into it, but I use about a half pack for my whole head, like I said, you're blending it into your natural hair. So you don't need as much. You would for a Sonia all hair extensions that I know of have what we call a track, which is this piece right here. The track. The first thing you will go about doing is measuring the tracks to your head. So if you're, starting in the back, you would just make sure you, I guess I probably should have my hair done to demonstrate this, but anyways you don't want to go right where your skin starts. You want to at least have a fang-banger finger length of space between where the trap is inserted and where your skin starts across, like this finger, lifts, buddies, finger, lifts space cut and do that as high up as you want to go, I keep a balance inch Or so in between, depending on the length of it, so let me show you so, even though I'm only demonstrating how to sew the clip onto one track, you can double up, you can use two tracks put them together, so the track together, and so the first One both of them so that you have more hair on one track. That'S how I do Mari. I actually took a shortcut shortcut and I don't sell the tracks together. First, I just stole the clip but clipping onto both at the same time when it comes to installing these bad boys, very, very simple, prom, don't matter face, my daughter got a little crazy with crayons but uh, but you'll get the idea, which is the point, make A part, I hope I don't look crazy BAM. Unsnap it targets now um. If you have thin hair, you might have to tease it a little bit first at the room and then comb that bit should doesn't hurt at all on all the other clips as well, and it stays right there. Look she - and I know here in this thicken. Obviously, to uninstall snap voila thanks Ariel, I usually flat iron, my hair first then I'll Flatiron, the extensions put them in my hair and if I want to curl them all kernel method. Otherwise I wrap my hair in a bun and when I take it out, it comes out that bees try not to sleep in them. I can but it's uncomfortable and it's not good for your hair processing, so I'm not going to rhythm in there, but I I've done it before it was fine, but don't do it like purging yeah. I'M just right super easy super quick. I just love to tippin's. Our girls

Lori McGuire: Oh the dream to have hollywood hair forever! I am going through menopause and needed a different hairstyle and after a bit of research i came across Zala and felt convinced after watching a few youtube reviews and online reviews that this was the best option for me. I am VERY happy with them. They are soft match my natural hair colour. They are a lot more sturdy once in then i had expected them to be. highly recommend them to anyone looking for extensions that are affordable, reliable, good quality. Perfect for hair extension first timers like me! Everyone thinks it is my real hair, nobody knows i've been wearing extensions!
