Pull Through Braid, Kanekalon Hair, Extensions Tutorial , Jumbo Braids, Festival Hair

Hi everyone. How are you feeling today and I thought I'd - do a tutorial on the Cape Helen hair braids? I know there are some on YouTube. I'M not trying to reenact those. I just thought I'd show you one I can do. I'Ve started Stardust, majestic hair and sparkles a few months ago now and due to obviously the coronavirus, I can't do that or girls parties or we're doing festivals, so I just thought: I'd show mums if they they want to do something different. I have seen it on a Facebook group that mums all over the all over the world at the moment are trying to recreate these looks, and so I thought I'd just show you how I do it alright hope everyone's staying, safe and hope you enjoy it. Okay, so this is how it comes. It comes in one big, braid. I'Ve chosen the dark blue to light blue for my assistant Phoebe here, and I don't have any little girls. I'Ve only got three little boys, so this is how I practice so. Okay, so I'm just going to show you how to it, so you just unravel and their joint at the top here with an elastic band. So I just usually untie that you can cut it if you wanted so just be careful not to cut the hair. Okay and this hair is so tricky to work with, and you will find it literally everywhere. So I break mine into to try and get it as even as you can and just sort of pull apart and if you have got a two tone or three tone. Hair, you really do have to try and keep it level at the bottom constantly, because otherwise, whatever hair style you'll do in, it will look strange if you've got some dark, blue and some light blue I've literally everywhere. So you have to try and just keep it even all the time which is really tricky. So I would say if you are starting just get one color braid. First of all and then move on to all the different colors. So I'd say what you need for this really is a comb make sure you brush the hair beforehand, use some clips to keep the other part of the hair away and also these little rubber bands and make sure you get a few out before you start, because There'S nothing worse than having them in the pack and then realizing you need them. I do it all the time I just wanted to show you some of the colors that I had ordered and there's rainbow colors, there's mermaid thing: there's like a bright, pink aqua. Just in case you were thinking of ordering them and didn't really know what they look like and what they came like so yeah. I'Ve got so many different, colors, really all for June for children's parties and festivals, but unfortunately aren't going to happen. If this is a braid in milk that I use, which is really good - and it smells amazing - and this is a wax that I also use just to keep those flyaways and also the hairspray there as well - and the bands that you can get from Primark or I'M sure you can order them online at the moment from Amazon, so I'm just going to show you how I do the other side, all right, so you've already split the cake and braids into two parts. I love this pull through braid and you don't have to actually have to you. Don'T actually have to be great at braiding to do the pull-through braid, so just splitting it into two again just separate that all once you've separated the hair you're gon na put a band around the cake on an braid and you're gon na form a loop you're Going to repeat this step with the other kite cut and braid that you've got so you're just gon na take a corner of the hair. I ain't gon na. Take your braids just make sure that's even on both sides. So now you're going to take this and and attach it to the band. That'S already on just pull that tight. The top now you're gon na grab another section of hair coming down. You can use your comb and you're just going to repeat that step that you did earlier you're going to attach that cake Canon braid to the natural hair there. If you make sure you split that front section into two, including the natural hair, so the first step I would say, is to take the bottom half that you've just tied up and put that forward. Usually you can get someone to hold that for you, but unfortunately, Phoebe doesn't have any hands. So I'm having to clip that in front of her. So then, you'll bring in the first tire that you did around the back of that and then what you're doing is just grabbing a piece of hair. You can use a comb if you want to almost as if you're going to be doing a Dutch braid, but do it from both sides so grab that piece of hair, and then you put a band around that. What you may need to do is you're. Going is tie up the hair at the bottom, so it doesn't get in the way of what you're doing so now you grab the piece of hair in front and divide that into two. It should already be in two pieces for you and now put that piece of hair to the front and you're going to repeat that step. So grab a section of hair. You need to usually got someone to hold that, but I'll have to use a clip. So again, a section of hair from both sides and you're going to put a band around that section as well. And if you need to like, I need to put a clip around the bottom. So it doesn't interfere with what you're doing with the hair. Again, spitting that into two and grouping it around the back of that section, you just constantly repeating that step so flipping that part of hair forward and using a clip to get rid of it and then putting a band around those bits there you do this. All the way down the length of the hair, just repeating those steps all the way down when you run out of hair, just put a band around the end, and this is where you can stretch out your plat. So what I would do here is actually grab the colored hair and pull you can do this all the way up the hair, and it just makes it softer, and you can actually see the colored hair more if you only pull the colored hair. So this is Phoebe's finished. Look, obviously if it was a festival, look I've put letter down the center of the hair and I'd also do her makeup. It'S really hard doing it on a mannequin head, actually is so much easier doing it on a human head, because the hair isn't a slippy.
