Hi, thanks for tuning in this is Moe such a natural and today we're going to be going over a technique for two strand twist extensions course: you're gon na start with freshly washed hair, applying your moisturizer oil, leaving a choice and grabbing a section braiding in the Extension here so just starting off with a simple flat synthetic apple, Tiki, Bowl care and after braiding so far down to put everything into and began to two strands with that straight for you guys, this is about the sides here I use for each section. Yes, I don't use very much hair because the hair itself is puffy, so, as you put it into the hair, that's going to mesh with the clients, hair and kind of be a a voluminous twist on its own instead of looking kind of frail and stand. So the extension here come by client, very many heroes. Finger parting is just a preference. I don't like to go back and forth. Looking for a column, there just save time so again, starting with a braid in pattern, just a simple flat and you do the braids kind of Todd's or kind of with a bit of firmness, not as old. You know you're applying pressure attention, but just so you keep everything all the way down. This is a real time. This style typically takes anywhere. Very so again. Here you see me braiding in the extension there and I gradually braid down, that's about an inch to an inch and a half and then once you get too far down what you're comfortable with without the too far down twist. My preference is no more than an inch to an inch and a half, I'm kind of relaxed in my wrists and fingers when I'm two strand twisting it just makes it more of a more smooth, even flow. So I get finished with that extension faster. I can just rub the head with a smaller execution, better put in too much. I do kind of pull stretch. If you will the extension here in my hands before I begin to add it into the clients hair strands each section I just like to because I feel like it kind of helps me right through whatever small tangles may be within the next section of hair as Well, as stretch it to whatever length the hair is because sometimes you don't, we could kind of be chunky and you won't get as much length retention out of whatever particular section you you're in holding in your newly in comparison to what you've already done. I like to just keep a consistent look as far as you know, uniformity in the look of this twist just for a more polished finish once again, twisting all the way to the end of the extension hair. Now I cannot stress this enough because pushing all the way down to the end, just like with my own clients, actual hair, I prefer to twist all the way down, because it really makes the hair curl up on its own. I don't have to twirl the hair around the end of it and actually that just takes up more time and with it being a fiber extension hair, it just kind of curls up on its own and it holds the curl the entire length of the style. Nothing new here guys it's the same process. I got so about an inch and a half. It is about an inch down. I was saying quite honestly, I'm not consistent with using product as I twist in the extension here. This is frankly because I do a lot of moisturizers before I add in the extension here, so I just feel like it could be in excess and it can make my fingers flip over not within the extension here, and it will cause the extension to not be As smooth or I won't have the finished, look that I prefer so it just it's trial and error. Of course you want to go at it with whatever you prefer or know about yourself and of course, it's going to be a learning experience. If this is a new style for you, but once again I'm finger parting here, it's just a time-saver, I get the same coverage and and that's the thing really that is, has a tunnel preference to me in regards to the finger party. I get so much coverage, especially for clients who are concerned with seeing scalp and not having a full look. You can create a very full look without doing too many extensions and causing that it's a look ma Peche. If you know what I mean just to pull, and so again it just allows me to control the flow of the hair is very versatile. You don't have to worry about pulling something up and a certain part of your hand being scalping. So it's a very simple and straightforward message to sectioning off the hair, which allows all of the twists to kind of fall into each other without putting a whole bunch of time into the style. You can have different tactics and approaches when it comes to completing a service without taxing yourself, like you, want to do things to kind of make the service as easy and convenient for the client, as well as you stuff. So here once again, starting with the face braid, the plant braiding, the extension area, you know - sometimes I hear - does get a bit tangled and sometimes I may have to hold it at the root of it to kind of release on it. You know with one hand as I'm trying to release some of the tangles with in a section on with the other hand, so it's very workable, though it's not like how some braiding hair it just you know it's imposters, very workable and whatever they did to in The process of making this hair they did be very good and creating something that mimics our hair texture. So here's the finished. Look everyone wash condition care for it, as you would your own and don't forget to Like comment subscribe and share thanks for watching
