We leave in the comment section below what is the milestone. Is it 15,000 or 20,000, and for those of you that are not a part of the family make sure you subscribe right now hit the notification bell um? If you guys hear some talking and stuff like that going on it is my neighbor. I am at the salon so yeah a lot of people do something so much weep and I do natural hair people are always curious to know the different types of extensions and things like that. So in this video I'm gon na break it down to you guys. I'M gon na give you guys Christ in I'm gon na, give you guys the maintenance for it. I'M gon na give you a description of what it is and all of that. So if you are interested, then stay tuned and keep watching so the first type of method, I'm going to tell you guys about - is the hot fusion. They also call the keratin behind. It has like a little so there's like a little YouTube. That'S like the tip of it is like a keratin type of bond and what you do is you attach it individually to each individual strand of hair and you heat it up with like a hot tool and so the hair types that I recommend. Those two are people that have medium density to medium to big density. There are people with finer hair that can still do it so with those carrots and vines you do not want to have any type of oil get it, and actually what I tell my clients is: do not wash your hair for a week when you just get Them installed because it can loosen it up, they're still trying to like they're there. There'S there too new it's too new to start washing your hair or a rubbing it too much or causing it. You want to have it set in the hair. So, in the application time, it just all depends on the stylist and it depends on the thickness of the person here it can take anywhere from, I would say, four to eight hours. Maybe I'm stylist charge anywhere from 800 to about 1600. For this type of weave install the next type of hair extension is called a cold fusion. They also call them micro link or you can. It can also be ITIN. So with that method is basically a ring. A really small ring in the hair - it just is just like one strip of hair, there's a eye tip at the tip of it. The eye tube also has a curtain bond in it as well. That'S like a safer way. It gives you the same. Look as a hot fusion only difference is this particular method is not using any type of heat, any type of anything that's damaging to the hair at all. This is maybe the safest way of getting that thing. I would still say: wait a week to wash your hair just because you don't want to tamper with it too much. It can still become loose and and fall out, and for this particular we even met it. I would prefer I prefer. People usually have a medium density too thick for this one as well, just because when it comes to these type of methods, having fine hair you'll be able to see right through to the beads, and that's not a good look for anybody. So the outside is a plastic and then an inside is a silicone and that's what mainly clamps, so the inside is silicone and the outside is plastic, so I would say about four to seven hours like I said it before, it does depend on the clients hair. How thick their hair is, but I would say, generally it takes about four to seven hours. This particular method is great for a person with like afro kinky, hair, natural hair, relaxed hair anybody that has naturally curly hair. I feel like this particular method is perfect for just because it it grips better far as cars go. This is gon na be generally about the same as as a hot fusion. There'S not much of a difference between this and a fusion. Only thing is: is you're not using heat on one and one you are, but the method is the same. So the next method is, I'm sorry guys. I have a cold, so I'm just trying to get past this cold that I have right now. Let yeah so excuse me if I'm sniffling or sounding a little weird. So the next method is called a tape in how it is. Is it comes with two pieces of hair on like this thin strip, and it has like a little plastic in between it and you pull it apart, pull off the plastic and you section off the person's hair and you sandwich their hair with you sounds the clients Hair with with the tapings it for the tape ends with our, I would say its best. This method is best for people to have more of a finer, hair, texture and more of a medium hair texture, because it's a little bit easier to conceal because of how big it isn't it's like. Then it's like a big strip of hair. You can't see like any little bonds, so this method is perfect for someone with fine, hair or medium density, and with these tapings you do want to avoid any type of water, any type of oil, because would it being so new that tape passing my head that Time to say so, if you go in there and wash it or fill around with it and put oil and stuff in it, what you're gon na do is cause it to start to slip off and with tape ends they usually take about an hour to maybe Two hours to do the tape ends are usually not that long. It doesn't take that long and tape and start at about $ 200 and can go up to about four or five hundred, depending on how many tape ends you want in the length of the hair. Okay and then for the next one is gluing so glue in is mainly it's like a regular wefted hair that comes in like bundles and all the thing you're doing is doing like a quick weave with it or some type of glue in style, where you're, using A 30 second glue on the track part, and then you just you know putting it on the clients cap or on your hair or, however, you style and this method can be used with any hair type. But this method is the most damaging. You have to be very careful removing this one, because it can cause a lot of hair loss. The maintenance for these is you. You definitely don't want to put any type of oil any products or anything like that, because anything can cause these loosen up. Even sweat. Can cause hair glue to shift and move and it seems you're a hot mess so, and it usually takes about an hour to maybe two hours to do a glue in we're quick we use depending on West City. This is all depending on what city you're in and everything most quickly is go for about 50 to about eighty bucks, so next up is so in, and so in is when the hair is braided down you, you leave out some type of perimeter. If you guys are interested in some videos on how to do so in braid patterns, then make sure you leave that comment below and I'll do a video for that as well. So what's this, so in only thing you need is a needle and thread and you're just taking the wefted hair and sewing it through each braid, and that is what a sewing is this particular style. I have done it on african-american hair as well as Caucasian hair. I believe, with this method, it is the safest if they have fine hair, it may be a little difficult. It just depends on how fine that person's hair is but you'll find out how about in consultation, and so with the sew ins. I would say you still want to avoid washing your hair or using any type of greases or anything like that. The first day for someone, that's getting that's getting this method and they have straight hair. I would recommend you using any type of grease in that case. If you are a person to have straight hair and you're, getting a sew-in done by me. I usually braid your hair down and i use a leave-in conditioner before i braid it down. I don't use any grease and your hair should be fine for about a week. If it's feeling like is getting too oily, then you can go in and use dry shampoo to absorbs on the bed that put that oil. Otherwise after week, you can wash it like. Regular, there is ways of wash and sew ins if you guys are interested in seeing videos on how to wash your. So in there are some videos on my channel. You can check it out i'll leave it in the description box below so forth. So in it usually takes about three to four hours, and this method is also pretty cheap as well. It range anywhere from about 75 to 200. It depends on a stylist and location. Not every stylist is a next method. Extension method is clip-ins. The clippings are like little clips that you have attached to the the chair, the wefted hair, it's usually stalling on to a Western hair, and you just clip it in where you want to see thickness or if you want to do. If you want a style that has longer length with the clippings, what you can do is part it section it off and then put clippings in each of those sections, and you just clip it snap. It on clippings are also a cheap method. It'S very, very temporary. I usually don't suggest a person using it over over two weeks because it starts to slide and shift and clippings are very, very, very um. The clippings are super temporary and, like I said you won't be able to get more than two weeks out of it. So yeah we're clip-ins, it won't take you longer than our clippings. Our super super super easy and they usually, if you have a hard time applying at what you can do, is tease the sections too and then snap the clip in in there and also, I usually recommend like if you're gon na wash your hair to remove the Clip is because clip ends will fall out, they're, not like any of the other ones. They'Re, not dead, 30 clippings usually cost anywhere to about fifty to maybe a hundred and fifty depending on the stylist. It'S usually used for people to have medium density, and they just want to add a little bit more to make it a little bit thicker and in some cases people just want a little bit. You know somewhere length at it. They also call this micro link, but this is to me it's more like a beaded web, where it is a it's a weft of hair and what you do is pull out. You leave out individuals, strands of the track, hair and your actual natural hair, and you use like a tool to pull the bead all the way up and in clam, and this is what holds the track in it gives you a look of a sew-in, but it's Flatter it's flatter. It doesn't require any braids, but this method is the same type of coverage. As a sew-in, I will recommend a person having dicta or medium to big density in order to get this method done as well with this one. You also want to avoid any type of like oil, or anything like that. The first week give it a break you can wash with this. This is the same type of way you will wash the hair if the person had is so in the only difference. Is it shouldn't take as long to dry it because there is no break with this method? You will have all of your hair out, so it's that's the only way to dismount like this solely because with the so in your here. It'S completely grated up for the most part, so when you're straightening it and curling it on a regular basis, you definitely want to be mindful a bit because you don't want to damage the hair that is being left out. So you want to find style. That'S not! Gon na compromise your hair too much as well and with this particular style. It only takes about an hour to maybe two hours. It'S another quick service as well um, depending on where you're located a stylist charge anywhere from about two hundred to maybe four.
