Trying $25 Clip Ins | How To Install Clip In Hair Extensions For Short Hair

What is up guys welcome back to my channel? I hope you are doing absolutely amazing today, as you can see by all of this. I do have different hair today, and that is because this video is going to be a clip in tutorial and i think they look really nice. This is also meant to be a protective style, so i didn't put any heat on it. I didn't use a flat iron to blend my hair with the tracks, so if you're up close, you might be able to tell, but i really feel like nobody's coming, that close, so we're good but yeah. I wanted this to be protective, so i wanted to have as little manipulation and zero heat as far as the hair that i used. This is the hair that i used. I literally just bought one pack of it and it's the freetress equal clip in hair extensions. The luxury integration - and i got this in the 18 inch just because i wanted you know if i'm a go straight long, then i'm just gon na go all the way. So yes, this is the hair that i use as far as the amount of time it took. This was my first time doing this, so it took me about 30 minutes or so, but now that i know where each clip goes in my head and i cut a couple to kind of fit my the size of my head. I definitely think i'll be able to get the time down to 10 or 15 minutes just because you literally just clip and go and as far as the cost, the hair only cost me 24 bucks. It was 23.99. I don't know how long it'll last i don't really plan on wearing these all the time i don't plan on wearing these most times, just kind of when i want a little bit of length and when i'm bored with my low bun or any other styles, that I do with my real hair, so let's get into the tutorial all right. First things: first, because this silk press is a little bit old, i'm going to go ahead and oil, my scalp, so i grabbed some of my favorite hair oil. The melanin hair care oil applied that to my hands and i'm just massaging it into my scalp so that my scalp is not super dry. Next, i'm going to start applying my tracks, and i start at the back of my head and i essentially just part from one ear to the next and you'll, see that i actually start the part right above my ear. Just because that's how long the track is - and i want to make sure that i have hair out in that part, to be able to clip the track onto so. I just part from right, above one ear, all the way across to right, above the opposite, ear and you'll, see here, i'm just applying some dry shampoo, because while my scalp is dry, my hair gets so oily so fast, so to be able to blend my hair. Better with the weave or the tracks or the clip ins, i wanted to look a little bit less oily and a bit more fresh and you'll also see that there's a little bit of white stuff left from the dry shampoo, but that always kind of fades away. In a couple of minutes, and after that, i just go in with my clip in i kind of put it up to my scalp just to make sure it fits. And then i literally just clip it right along where i parted my hair. So at the top of that section, it's extremely easy. I don't really know how to explain it other than just showing it to you, because it's so easy. It'S just clipping the track onto your hair and then once i'm done clipping it onto my hair. I go ahead and kind of just comb it through to help my hair blend a little bit with the track, and once i'm done with that clip in i go in about one inch above the track, and i part my hair again all the way from one Side of my head to the other and just apply some of that dry, shampoo, just so that my hair is not extremely oily and it's blending with the extensions and y'all will also see that i do kind of go ham with the dry. Shampoo not gon na lie, but i just do a good job of rubbing it in really well, so that it doesn't leave any white residue and even if it does most times it does go away within a couple of minutes. So once i'm done applying dry, shampoo i'll go ahead and just comb it down again to blend with that track. So again, here you'll just see that i'm fitting the clip in to my head before actually applying it just to make sure that it is the correct length and once i do, that, i go ahead and just clip it in starting on one side and then moving. All the way to the other side - and i like to make sure that the clip in is not going all the way to my hairline. But it's stopping a little bit before my hairline. So if the wind blows you're not going to see my tracks - and i literally just keep doing that same method - all the way up my head so and once i get to the top of my head, i go ahead and just make my middle part to where I have two small sections left and here's where i switch it up a little bit with how i apply each of the clip-ins. I create a diagonal part in that section just because i feel like that, helps to hide the clip in a little bit more than just creating a straight part and then to create my second part where i'm going to clip my final clip in i start at The middle of the diagonal track and i go from the center of that all the way to the front of my hairline, not sure if i'm making any sense. But you guys can kind of just see it here and as i'm applying that last clip into that part, i'm making sure again not to apply it directly to my hairline, but keep it a little bit back just so that again, if the wind blows you're, not Gon na see the track you're just gon na see my hair, and once i'm done, i apply a little bit more dry, shampoo again just to make sure that it's blending with the tracks well and, as you can see here, i think it actually blends pretty well Considering the fact that i didn't use heat and then i'm just going to add a little bit of this cream of nature, shine spray just to help lay down any flyaways and then i'm taking some of my favorite main choice. Edge control just to lay down the front edges of the part a little bit. I think it just makes it look a little bit neater and that is pretty much it, and that is it for this video.
