This was a method I can up with about a year ago for the protection of my clients hair when getting Quickweaves.this method protects the client Hair from any bonding glue and extended the life of the quickweave from 2 weeks to 3! My clients love it because it's easy to remove as their hair isn't torn out and their edges are still intact! I have a video on how to property shampoo this out as well! Be sure to watch and subscribe!
Okay, you guys for this you're gon na need em pro styling gel. It'S the dark gel. I love this gel. This is gel that I use hahaha. I'M next you're gon na need a bottle pump it up. So once you finish, molding your clients, hair with the gel you're gon na spray that and then put them in the dryer you're gon na need a bottle of Roberts, Diamond bun, protective shoe or a glue protector as we call it. This is what it looks like. It'S dark and it comes in this pretty little purple bottle. You will need a tint brush so that you can apply the glue protector on to the clients. Hair you'll also need a stocking cap, a thin stocking cap, not the dome caps that we use for wigs and you're gon na need a pair of shoes for this procedure as well. Okay, so I'm going to show you how to do the cap for the invisible part you want to start by parting, your clients, hair off on either side. You should clients preference after you part her hair off. You want to go ahead and gel her down with the hair pro styling gel. You want to make sure she's, nice and flat you, okay, so pretty much have her nice and slick all the way down. As you can see, I kind of cleaned up her part on that side. So, yes, we have her nice and slick, and it's going to look like this and then next you're going to apply your spritz you're going to make sure you spritz her whole head. Give me every part: every inch, cuz, you're, gon na make sure it's nice and hard, and it dries quick under the dryer. Next, we're gon na sit her under the dryer until she dries after she dries. You want to go ahead and take your bottle remover, and you want to apply it to your clients, hair. You want to make sure you get it all over her hair lining the part make sure you do not get it on the part. You want to get very, very close to the part, but not on it, because when you put the cap on it's gon na stick to that party, you won't be able to cut where her natural part is so you're going to go ahead and do this procedure. All through the throughout her head now, what I'm doing here is I'm making sure not to go too close to her edges, because it's thin and we want to kind of leave that part out just to kind of make it look a little bit more natural. On top of preserving her edges, you, after you finish applying the glue protector. This is how it should look next, you want to take your stocking cap and stretch it as wide as you possibly can, so that you can put it on to your clients hair. Without touching any parts of the stocking, because you don't want it to stick to your clients, skin sorry, I love the way. I tried to get a good angle in the back of the stocking cap. You want to pull it down to the edge of the clients hair so that it will stick. You don't want to leave anything out any hair out. You don' risk putting glue on your clients here. What I'm doing here now is basically taking my ten brush and I'm going through and pressing it down, so that the glue protector will bleed through the cap. Again, you want to get close to her scalp, but not on her scalp. You want to get right up on that part, but make sure not to get on the scalp of her part, because if you do, it will stick to her head and it would be hard to cut after you're done. It should look like this again make sure to keep the glue protector off of the part. It should be free and clear next you're, going to put your client under the dryer until she dries now once you dries you're going to cut off the excess cap around the perimeter of your clients head now in the back of your clients, head she's under the Dryer, it will roll up a bit, so you can just unroll that and cut off that extra continue. Cutting into all loose ends of the cap is completely off after you're done with the perimeter we're going to go head in and cut her part out now. My shears is a little dull, so police don't talk about me because I know, but it's been a bit of struggle getting through this part, but imma get through it understand that. But, oh you want to make sure that you cut off any excess cap that you see when you're done. It should look like this. This method creates a two barrier: protection between the glue and your clients hair. So the glue never touches your clients hair and it extends their quick weaves and extra weeks are now they're able to wear for three weeks. I do have a video on how to watch this out, so please check it out. Now, I'm going to show you how I do the cap with leave out. I do leave out a little bit of hair in the front like a triangle of hair, so when I'm bonding it, it looks more natural as if it's her hair in the front, I braid down the leave out that I'm going to leave out so that it Doesn'T touch the glue protect her, and this is how I mold the hair. I stick it back in a ponytail and I slicked her ponytail going upwards just like we did before you want to go in and apply the glue protector making sure not to get on her scalp but close to it. You want that cap to stick everywhere. Her hair is you you again, you want apply the glue protector, making sure to leave her edges out on the side. You want to get too close to the edge of her hair. I just think it's the safest to just stay away from the edges. We want to preserve those edges now at the top of our hair. I want to show you just like we did in the last video. You want to get it all over making sure to get as close to her part as possible when not on her part, and this is how it should look again when you're done applying the glue protector. Take your cap, spread it wide and apply to your clients. Here this is how it should look, take your Tintin brush and press it down, so that the glue protector bleeds through the cap again stay away from the hard scat part of her head stay away from her part. So once it's dry go back in again and cut around the perimeter of your clients head cut off all the excess cap go in and cut around her leave out once you're done, you can go ahead and apply your tracks and she's ready to go. Now again. I do have a video tutorial on how I shampoo this is out of my clients. Hair is real, simple and easy make sure you go watch the video please subscribe to my channel. You guys, I will be uploading more videos, make sure you visit my Instagram page at hair by Mikah, and please please share this video. If you found it helpful.

Yakeema Taleem: Love how she explains things so thoroughly ❤️
PureBeaute: I do this , this works wonders and my sister Hair still growing and her edges still in tact you go girl !!!
UrbanRawDiva: OMG! This is EXACTLY what I was looking for! You have no idea how you just helped me. Thank you so much for your video! I knew there was still a way I could get a quick weave even though my hair was so short (twa). And you did it step by step at such a steady pace. YOU are a great instructor! Now I can change my look some more. Yay, me! Thank you so much!
T Braddy: FINALLY! A CLEAR, EASY-TO-SEE, AND UNDERSTANDABLE VIDEO WITH STEP BY STEP EXPLANATION AND INSTRUCTIONS! THANK YOU!
Kristal Coburn: I've been a cosmetologist for over 20 yrs and im licensed in 2 states and I think ur amazing and anyone who thinks different can have a seat!
Teri R. M-Ware: This is by far the BEST VIDEO I have seen. I've watched several with hopes of learning how to do my own quick weave and your tutorial was EVERYTHING!

LaDyLuCk: As a beginner I feel much better about doing my hair after watching this video..thank you !
Beautyatafraction: As a professional I see nothing wrong with this video. I see people keep saying so many "chemicals". I think your wording is off. Chemicals are by definition the change of texture or color. This is a protective style that will lift and release as soon as water saturates it. The glue, cap, hair will come off as one unit leaving little to no glue on the clients hair. Keep your head up love. Returning clients with growing hair will say otherwise to the nay sayers.
Jolie by Jennifer: I love your method of applying enough protectant and then pressing the cap into it as opposed to using MORE protectant over the cap. Very smart and un-excessive product use!
Jay P: I love how detailed you made this video. This is great for once in awhile temporary/ want something different styling. Great job on this tutorial.

Yakeema Taleem: I see a lot of hair tutorial YouTubers and honestly it seems like they don't want to give you all their secrets but the way she explains things is like she's truly teaching you like she can give a class and she wants you to be the best you that you can be within this particular technique it doesn't seem like she's leaving anything out she's going to step by step and I truly feel like I can do what she is saying. My issue is I am a beautician but I am an older beautician so the styles that I'm aware of in my time is like finger waves just weaves braids designer braids even the pineapple was out when I started so I learned these particular type of hairstyles but now a lot of my clients are coming in one in the gluing cap or whatever but I don't want to damage to hear so my business went down I love how she makes me feel like I can literally practice you know on my daughter and learn this and start my business back up again and start earning money to provide for my family this is my livelihood so I think you for putting this video out there and honestly teaching us what it should be... And how it should be done

Kreme Miiluv: This is THEE THEE THEE BEST DETAILED TUTORIAL I HAVE EVER SEEN ON HERE.. GREAT JOB!! AND THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH
jason thomas: Thank you for the introduction I like how thorough you are for those who don't know!
Jazz CP: I used to do quick weaves on myself often. I used this method every time because I hated glue getting stuck in my hair. I never had any damages or breakage from Robert Diamond. Believe it or not Robert Diamond has the same texture as gel, but a little thicker, when applying. When you wash your hair after taking it down its not hard it softens when the water hits it. It really does protect your hair from the glue.
Theresa Padgett: I have been doing hair for almost 30 year and I can say you did a great job. These people in the comment section need to stop the madness.
pizzachick: YOU ARE GREAT!!! I LOVE THE WAY YOU EXPLAINED EVERY STEP. THANK YOU
Teresa Norris: Thanks, loved the tutorial, Ian allergic to most hair when it touches my scalp, even expensive so called human hair. I have even don all of the recommended wash treatments. A lot of money wasted. With this method I can protect my scalp, and wear the curly styles I like.

Joseph P.: How do you hate on a video that’s merely ONE tutorial for you? Like dam, yah girl is trying to HELP PEOPLE!! I can’t stand when someone thinks they’re the best at everything, there is always someone out there that can do something better than YOU TOO!! Meekah, you did a DAM GOOD JOB HERE boo and don’t you allow any haters to make you feel otherwise! And to all my Black hair dressers make and female, DO YOU, and know that someone is ALWAYS going to hate but you stay strong and let your WORK speak for you!
BKLYN SOUTH: Thanks for sharing. I do the same technique except I don't put so much gel on their natural hair. And I sure was wondering what washing it out would be like so I will watch that video next.
MZ. J: I Know the video is old but I just watched it today. Thank you for your work you just saved my hair. My daughter is doing my hair and she brought this and my hair is beautiful I wish I could send you a picture of my hair before and after.
Arlinia Drummonds: Me and my stylist tried this method and all was great until we started to bond the tracks. The tracks would not bond to then cap, so she sprayed the hair with spritz and placed me back under the dryer. After the spritz dried then we where able to bond the tracks to the cap. But after a few days the tracks begin to side off little by little, what did we do wrong? We used the 30 sec bonds glue, and even after rebonding the tracks that slid out we still had problem with getting then tracks to stick.

Latisha Brooks: Thank you so much for showing me how to do this !
dianne bryant: This technique has actually made my hair grow I just hate the drying time
Shannon Jones: Heres a tip: the Gel GROWS your hair bc of its protein, the liquid glue Protector will also grow your hair because of its protein & vitamins provided in it. The glue protector helps keep the glue out of your hair & so does the cap. This is usually for those who plan on having the hair for a long period of time or they are natural.
Cassondra Hill: Great tutorial!!! Thanks for sharing. Will this technique prevent premature lifting (before1- 3 wks) in clients that sweat a lot on the scalp?

Ridin WithThe G: I really like this method it was just that for me personally after three days I couldn't take it and it itch so much plus air couldn't get to my scalp. I was looking fabulous though.
