1 2 3 Row Placement For Handtied Extensions!

Hey guys, we made it, we made it okay. So the first thing that i do when trying to decide where i'm going to put the rose is one ask the client where they would normally part their hair, so usually part down the middle, correct yep. And if someone kind of does both they flip-flop and they part in the middle both sides, i usually recommend parting it in the middle so that they're able to flip-flop it, but if they do favor a certain side just keep in mind. You know that you have to use your three finger rule to make sure that if they do part, you know on this certain side that you you make sure that your end bead is no higher than your three finger. So today we're doing one row, but i did want to show you guys a one row placement, a two row placement and a three row placement. I'M just going to show you the sectioning, so i always do it on wet hair. It'S just easier for me personally to part on wet hair, so i'm gon na show you a one round so one row what i usually do is i take my three fingers. I go from her hairline back three fingers and, from her part down three fingers and kind of where they meet is where i start my section and i keep in mind that okay, she is only getting one row, so i need the most coverage and she wants. The most length, but if she does have any short layers, i need to make sure that the row is up high enough that it's going to help blend with these layers, because if it's too far down you're going to have to cut too much off that length To blend it in so i try to make sure that that parting is pretty much in the center of their head, and everybody's head shaped a little bit differently. Everybody has a different haircut, so you may have to put it lower or higher, depending on you know where their shortest layers are, and i do always like to put a little bit of a teardrop or a u-shape, a halo whatever you want to call it. Okay and then i come back onto this side too, and do double check and make sure three fingers back. Okay, that's a little bit more than three fingers, so i'm gon na take a little bit more. This would be on this particular client, a one-row sectioning. I always like to look in the mirror as well and make sure that either side is, you know, pretty symmetrical, and obviously you want everything to be super clean okay, so this would be where her row would go. This is probably going to be where her row is going to go. You could probably dip a smidge a bit lower, but again you want to keep in mind those shorter layers if it's too far down you're not going to be able to blend those layers. So now for a two row for two row, you still want to keep in mind the three finger rule, so you want it to be three fingers from the ear this time, because this is going to be the bottom row so same on this side, three fingers From the ear and then a lot of people like to use the occipital bone as a reference point um, a lot of this comes with preference too. Some people me personally and a few other hairdressers. I know we like to go actually below the occipital just because it helps blend any really short pieces that you have under here, but for a lot of people it can be uncomfortable. So that's something that you kind of have to work out with your client as well see if they're comfortable with it. Sometimes people are not comfortable with it, and some people prefer. So you also want to make sure that right in through here around the ear. This is where that three finger rule is super important. You can also use your foiling comb as a reference, so say we're gon na come down here a little bit. So basically, you know, wherever you would have put one row you're going to put a row on either side of where you would have put a single row if you kind of think of it like that, so here's this is where her bottom row would go, and I always turn my chair. That'S what they're for so here again, i'm going to measure with my finger three fingers above the ear, and this is most important when you're doing two rows. You you're you're, if you're doing one row, you probably shouldn't be that close down to the ear and also this bottom row is not going to be as high up as if it was a single row. Okay, as far as where her end bead is gon na go so again i like to go in and make sure each side is going to be. Even some people do not have symmetrical heads either, so you just have to you, have to eyeball it and make sure it's going to look the most natural. I look at it from all angles. I look at it from the back to make sure it's even i look at it from the sides from the top from the front in the mirror to make sure everything looks really good okay, so this would have been her first row, her bottom row. If we were doing a two row, install three fingers from the ear you would put, you would do three fingers from the hairline just making sure you know if they have any very fine hair here, you would just go back into where her hair gets a little More sturdy, you would never want to put a bead on very fine hair like this. It will just knock it okay, so that would be her first row. So we're going to drop everything down, pretend like we just installed her out and go back to her parting. So obviously, her bottom row doesn't get affected much by where she parts her hair. The top row is going to be where you might see an end bead or you might see a weft if it's too far up on the head. Also, this is a big spot for like cowlick, so you have to make sure you, you fluff your client's hair a little bit and see you know where their cowlick is because if you put a weft right in between that cowlick, it's going to cause problems. So three fingers down same idea as when you were doing that that single row, but now this is going to be a little bit higher up and if somebody has shorter layers, you always want to go a little bit higher with your row. It'Ll just give them a little more coverage, it'll be so much easier to blend and keep in mind too, like not, every section has to be super slanted or you know super you know u-shaped, it all depends on the client's head. You also don't want it to be. You know always straight across like from here to here. A person's head is round, so you want to kind of go with the shape of somebody's head and so again, if someone is parting on the side, your um, like your teardrop or your section, is not going to be perfectly symmetrical. It'S going to be, you know, scooched over to the side a little bit, because that's really quite good. Okay, so that's probably where i would put her second row. You know just making sure too that when i put her hair down, you know part it in the middle, and i put my boiling comb on where the section is that you cannot see the foiling foam and so now for three rows. It gets a little bit tricky. You got ta, make sure you space your rows evenly apart in the right spots so that you have enough room on the head to put all the ropes. So your bottom row is pretty much going to be the same because you can only go so far down, but your second row isn't going to come all the way up here. If you're doing three rows, it's going to go in between where you would have. You know here that's going to be your first row. You would dip down a little bit more for your second row and some people have little heads so putting three rows in sometimes can be a challenge and you're like. Where do we put it? So sometimes maybe your bottom row would only be like a mini and it maybe might only go from like ear to ear in the back here, but you still want to have like a little bit of a swoop. You don't ever really want to go straight across like this, just because you don't get as much coverage like if you just go from here to here at the nape of somebody's neck. You might as well go from. You know the back of her ear to here, because then you're just going to get more coverage in this area right here, which usually is very sparse on a person so first row. The second row is going to be you know in between, and once you get that first row in you can get gauge a little bit better where that second row is going to go so see how much different this looks so much different than when i just Had the two, because i'm spacing them a little bit closer together now, because i have to fit all three rows and on your second row, your beads are not probably not going to come as far forward as your top row. Your beads are only going to come. Probably to about here - and you know it only - it already always depends on. Let me just give you a depends on the person's shape hairline shape. So this is a great way to gauge where your first bead is going to go. You want to make sure that you cannot see this through the hair great way to gauge okay, so that would be pretty much second row placement and then your third row placement is going to come up pretty high full coverage. You can come up on top if you want okay, so again, three rows from the hairline three rows from the hand. Three fingers i mean from the hairline. But again you want to make sure once you, when you stick that comb under you have to make sure you can't see, and sometimes this one is not so teardrop. Sometimes this one is a little more hot dog, hot dog, rectangular hot dog. Call it u-shaped not so much so this would be very similar to what a third row placement, but so even this is starting to dry and it's getting harder for me to like section it so i'll always just go in and spritz it down, because it just Helps make a very clean section, and this is preference too. Some people, like their rows, really high up really really close to their hairline. Some people crash into it a lot because it's a very high traffic area and it's not a good placement for them. So, that's something that you need to kind of work out with your client and ask them see if it's comfortable and sometimes that's trial and error. Sometimes they don't know that they don't like it there. So you need to get it, get them back in and tweak it for them and that's what you need to do so that would be like your third row. Placement or a lot of people will put like a little mini here, but i always say if you're gon na go for it just go for it and do another third row, but that's a lot of hair. So you can see you would have enough room for one row, two row three row and one row would go about here. Two road go about here and here there it is guys row placement, hi, that's great learned, a lot!
