Micro Links For Curly Hair

Hi guys welcome back to house of hair uk hope. Everyone is safe and well. If you're new to the channel, don't forget to subscribe and hit the notification bell, so you can be notified any time i post new content. So in today's video i'm going to be showing you how my client went from that hair to this hair, using curly eye tips provided by ourselves house of hair uk. So this is our client's hair. She came in with freshly washed hair, but she didn't put any product in it so that we would be able to install her micro links or micro rings. So i'm just showing you guys her hair is so lovely. We had to lighten her hair extension slightly because her hair is like a color too, and the hair extensions that we have are a color 1b, so you guys already know how i do micro rings. This is more just to demonstrate how beautiful the tight curly hair is that we provide um rather than showing you guys how we do a micro ring install, but, as you can see, i've done about three or four rows at the side of her head going in A forward direction - and this creates the illusion of having more volume because you've got more hair extensions kind of falling into your face and around your cheekbone um. And then once i'd done that front part and then went round to the back and started doing row by row, i don't think we've missed out any spaces. I think we kind of packed her hair in because the strands are only one gram per strand, so they're, actually not that thick and curly hair is very deceiving. Even if it's fine, it gives an illusion of looking really thick. So her natural hair was not that thick, but it's difficult to blend with the actual hair extensions. So we had to use quite a bit of product at the end to make sure that the hair extensions blended well together. But this is just me installing some of the rose and then i'm going to show you guys after how we've done the blend. So when we're working with a client who's got quite fine hair, it's really tempting to use very small sections of their own hair so that you can pack more hair extensions in, but you've got to remember kind of safety. First, when it comes to your clients, hair. So you still want to make sure you use using even sections, but for some people who train in micro links, they might do three or four rows, leave a small space and then do another three or four rows. If your client's got quite fine hair, don't bother to leave those rows out, just continue to pack up the hair and ensure that you're using enough of the client's natural hair to go inside of that micro bead, because over time, if you use too small amount, the Hair extension will start to pull on their hair and it will start to twist around on itself. So you always want to make sure that you're using quite an even amount of the client's natural hair and enough so that it can hold the weight of the hair. Extensions for kind of six to ten weeks after i finished doing the install i just sectioned it out in quite large sections. I used my hands to detangle and then i used a wide tooth comb. I just sprayed it down with water and a little bit of mousse instead of using gel, because she wants quite a big look. She wants her hair to look very thick. If you use gel it's going to give it kind of a wet look and it's going to weigh it down so mousse helps to define the curls and of the hair extensions and the client's hair. It will help to define those curls a little bit better and help them become a little bit. More. Uniform gel would definitely be um better at kind of creating more tight curls in the hair extension than her own hair, but because she wants a big look, we're not going to go with gel. Otherwise it's going to look too heavy and too wet. Just a side. Note, when you're detangling any hair extensions, whether they're, wefted ones or single strands, be sure to kind of hold on to them and detangle from the end of the hair and work your way up to the top. You don't want to go straight in with a comb and just pull all the way through otherwise you're going to really irritate your root, and you could also cause some kind of breakage and snap. The hair extensions off your own hair, which we do not want. So this is the mousse that i've gone in with i'm sorry, i didn't actually show the bottle, but it's quite a lightweight mousse, so in house of hair we still only have two different curl patterns, so we have our indian wavy texture, which is still our vietnamese Hair but we call it indian wavy, and then we have this tight, curly texture as well, that you can see in the video. So i have been searching for about a year now for a company that actually has a high quality, kinky coily or kinky curly texture for my kind of like 4c textured. Ladies i've been desperately searching. I'M sorry, my throat is still gone. My voice is gone um. So i'm still searching for a coily or afro textured eye tip strand. I will do a video on it because i have sampled the hair from this vendor around three or four times now and i'm actually quite happy with it. But what i will say is that, ladies who have got more curly, coily, afro, textured hair, you will need to stretch out your hair slightly. There isn't a way to do micro links without actually stretching out your hair, even a small amount. You don't have to necessarily use heat, but you will need to do a small amount of stretching. So once you feel, like you've, got a little bit more of a blend, try and go in with a soft brush or a denman brush and brush through the client's hair and the hair extensions to help with the blend, and you can actually use a curling cream. I know before i said not to use any gels. I find gels really heavy, but um. There is a few curling creams on the market that you can use to help to kind of flatten out your own hair and to find the curls and to help the curl pattern of the hair extensions and your own hair blend. So this is, after a little bit of work, of kind of like using the mousse using the water and kind of ringlet in it or rolling it around my fingers to help the kind of textures blend together. I think once all of it dries, it will definitely blend out a little bit better, but this is the final look guys before finishing. I just kind of trimmed off any of the extra kind of long strands and layered it and framed it a little bit around her face. So thank you guys for watching this video.
