Tape In Hair Extensions | Before & After

Hi guys welcome back to my channel um today, I'm having something really exciting happened to me. I am getting tape in hair extensions. I'Ve been wanting these for like forever and I'm finally giving in and getting them so I'm gon na be taking you guys. Along with me, I wanted to give you a before shot of my hair, so here it is in the front. This is how long it is I'm doing this more for the like making it thicker, because I've always wanted like thick long hair, but I'm also gon na get it a little bit longer than my hair. I'M thinking, maybe right here, we'll see how long they are. Whenever I see the hair, I'm getting them done at a salon with someone who I totally trust, it's awesome, so this is my hair, so yeah y'all are gon na come along with me enforcer. This is my new mermaid hair. Also, naturally, these are pretty straight. I will talk about that in a second, but mostly I will wear them straight. I just had my hair in two braids earlier this morning, so they are wavy today, but they're so cute they match perfectly. The color is beautiful, so I am absolutely totally loving them. Um, I want to show you guys some before and after pictures, so I will put them up right now, so you can see my hair straight and what it looks like before and after they lay perfectly on my head. I don't even feel that they're in, like I honestly cannot even like I mean I can feel where this stuff is, but I mean you wouldn't be able to just like feel them. If, if you were just running your hand like down my head, if that makes sense, they're, definitely there, though I mean, if you go from under you, can feel all of the little like tape and wefts, but other than that, like they're, totally um, not stable. I mean I can't feel them. They are amazing, they're beautiful. So I have a list here of things that I wanted to talk about with you guys um just things that I have discovered over the last five days, um things that I love about them. A few things that I wasn't expecting about them, just basically how I'm liking them and telling you guys about the price, how long it took to get them in all that kind of stuff, and I will make a follow-up video with any questions you guys leave in The comments to this video, so if you have any other questions, leave them in the comments, I will do a follow-up video in a few weeks or a month or so over. You know how I'm liking them at that point. First of all, this is hot Headz. Hair extensions: they are the tape and extensions like I mentioned before, it's supposed to be like the best quality hair out there, at least that's what my hairdresser said. At least they better be. They were extremely expensive, but so far I'm absolutely loving them. They are amazing. Quality they're so thick, even at the ends I mean normally like hair is thick up top and then it like fades out to the ends and gets kind of thin, but hotheads hair extensions definitely has the thickness going on all the way throughout the hair. It comes with 20 pieces of hair, we used all 20 of them. My hairstylist Kerry said that sometimes people can't handle all 20 in their head, but she thought that I could so we went ahead and put all 20 in. I have not noticed any tugging, any type of headache hit headaches that I have. I haven't noticed that they're really heavy anything, I'm just kind of used to them. I used to wear clip-in extensions and those gave me horrible headaches, but definitely even with all 20 pieces. In my hair of this hair, I have not had any type of headache at all the first day at work. I did have a slight headache, but I think that was because it was the first day that I had them in, and I had to put my hair up in a ponytail which was a little difficult, not to wear a headset at work. So I think that contributed to the headaches, because I only had one headache - and that was the first day at work and it went away once I left work, so it wasn't that big a deal I haven't had any other problems so far. I think I showered the second or third day of having these in, because you're supposed to wait a good 24, maybe 48 hours. I went ahead and waited 48 hours. Most people say I do about 24. My hairdresser was like try to wait as long as you can, so I waited 48 hours. I took a shower and then, when I wasn't expecting is the fact that the hair was wavy. The hair was like had a little curl at the end, and I thought it was kind of cool at first now, not so much I'm used to having like hinge straight hair, um, hey baby, you want to say hi, oh, that was my cat. Okay, she doesn't want to say how do you guys sorry um anyways, I'm used to having like pin straight really soft, like fine hair, and this is a lot thicker - it's still very soft, it's just coarser than my hair. If that makes any sense, not saying that they're, not soft, they are really soft, I'm just not used to having such thick hair. If you would compare like one strand of hair of this to a strand of my own hair, this strand is a lot thicker than my like fine, very thin, hair um. But like I was saying it has a little bit of a wave, it's cute, but at the same time I have to straighten my hair now and that's not a lot of fun. Also, this hair gets stuck on a lot of things, my seat belt, for instance. It'S always like getting stuck in the seat belt. I just it just gets stuck in a lot of places, so I'm having to get used to doing that like for instance, another thing is whenever I'm sleeping like on my side and then I like try to turn around at night, sometimes like what a piece of My hair will get like stuck and I'll have to like it's just it's just a little difficult, I'm trying to learn how to manage having long, thick hair, which I'm absolutely loving. But it's just it's taken me a little bit to get used to having this much hair. Okay, so starting off the shampoo and conditioner I've been using is by this ring pure. It'S like coconut water, shampoo. It has no dyes, know sulfates. It'S like completely organic. I have the same conditioner for it: the coconut water type. I got it at TJ Maxx for like $ 10 each. So it's pretty cheap. You get a ton. I love these pumps. I don't know I just really really like it. So far. It'S been doing really. Well, with my hair and the oil that I've been using, is this a bio silk: silk therapy light oil for hair. This was about 13 14 dollars at t.j.maxx. It'S supposed to be like a really really good oil for your hair. I brought my friend Bri along with me and her mom's a hairdresser, and I was like. Hopefully she can help me with this, and she pointed out this oil said that it was really good supposed to be awesome. So so far it's been great. I'Ve been using this on my hair, so I'm like that's the last thing that I have to go over with you. Guys is the price of these. How expensive they were. How often I have to go back and get them taped up farther, how long they're gon na last all that stuff? Well, first of all the price, I'm a little hesitant to say this on camera, because my boyfriend thinks I only spent like 350 on these. But a mark, if you're watching this, I'm sorry, I actually spent $ 700 on the hair and the application yes $ 700 seems like a lot of money, but you guys this is supposed to the best quality hair. So far, I've absolutely loved it and $ 700 versus how long they're going to last is a pretty good deal. These right now in my head will last from six to eight weeks and then on that sixth sixth, seventh, eighth week, whenever they start bothering me, whenever my hair is grown and these little left's are down lower. That'S when I need to go into the salon and get them taped up higher back towards my scalp. I expect that I should be able to go a good seven to eight weeks, I'm hoping just because my hair doesn't grow that fast. I know a lot of you guys said in my sugar bear hair of you that think that y'all thought my hair grew really fast, but I don't know I feel, like my hair grows, really slow, that's just my opinion, so I'm hoping that I can last a Good seven to eight weeks without having to go back into the salon, but whenever I do go back in it should only be he remember how much she told me between sixty to eighty dollars to get them taped up. Also, I can do that. I can do the six to eight weeks. I think she said around five times. Maybe I might be wrong. I completely blank on that. I don't remember, I didn't write it down, but this hair should last me a pretty good long time as long as I think, really good care of it, and I plan on doing that, as you can tell with the organic shampoo and all the oils that I've Been putting in it and haven't been using a lot of heat, so I'm hoping that these will last me a good time, because I can't afford to spend $ 700 every few months if that makes sense um. But I definitely want to have this long, beautiful hair for like the rest of my life um, let's see what else I guess!
