How To: Bleach Knots, Pluck + Style 99J Lace Frontal Wig ❤️ | Amazon Estelle Wig

Black, hey guys, welcome back to my channel, it's tianjoriana and i'm going to show you how to bleach the knots and pluck your 99j frontal. I know that sometimes, when you get the frontals they'll be dark like the knots will be dark just like that. So i'm going to show you the proper way on how to brighten those and make it lighter. First, i'm going to take some got to be spray to get the flyaways out of the way this hair is from the company estelle. I believe that's what it's called. It'S an amazon company, so i will leave all the information down below if y'all are interested in it and next i'm going to take my bw2 powder and my 40 developer. I feel like this powder works more usually when i bleach any of my wigs. I use the l'oreal blue bleach, but when it comes to the burgundy hair i feel like that doesn't cause the knots to lighten up like i had the similar wig beforehand and the knots did not lighten whatsoever like they were still kind of dark and red. So i was looking at other people's videos and i noticed that a lot of people were using white bleach, so that is a key tip. I noticed when i used the white bleach. It brightened the knots and they weren't dark anymore. So that is my little test to make sure that it is good um. You want to add a toothpaste, consistency, but a little thicker than that. If you're able to turn it upside down, like you just seen, then you're good, you don't have to worry about it. Running through your lace and i'm going to apply the bleach like so i let the bleach sit on for about an hour long and that brightened the knots perfectly. So you know you can always look at it and then you know that'll determine if you want to take it off, but an hour worked for me and yeah. You just see me applying the bleach on. I will be back when i got something else to say: um, so, hmm also in the beginning, um that first clip that y'all seen that was after i initially co-washed it and the color will leak. So that is just something to let y'all know. Even if i'll choose not to bleach the knots to this wig still give it a co-wash, because you don't want it to accidentally. You know leak onto your shirt and your shirt is stained or, if you install the wig and using like mousse or something it'll like leak onto your skin, so just give it a co-wash and some cold water. You know let the color run a little bit and you'll be good. This is after the second co-wash, as you can see, the color is still vibrant, so even co-washing it two times did nothing to the color. I'M gon na take my hot comb and smooth everything back before like when i first started plucking i like to plug my hair when it was wet, but i just don't like doing that anymore. So i just use my hot comb and maybe use a little bit of like um, chi, infusion, silk, pressed or um like a wax stick. You could use you know just to slick it back, but i like using the chi infusion just because the wax thick - i don't want it to be like stuck on that exact mode. Yet so i'm gon na part out the pre plug section, slash baby hair section. Whatever y'all want to call it, and then i'm gon na take my hot comb just to press that out and make it flat as possible. I just find it easier to do that when i pluck, and i also use a white cloth, that's a white t-shirt. You can use a white towel, whatever is just white and bright that you can see what you're doing. Because if it's on a regular canvas head, you might end up giving yourself like a little hole in your lace, and you can also see how much you're taking off, because it is possible that you might put too much so yeah. I'M just doing the plucking motion. Like one two and then skip one two and then skip one two and skip and then i'm just gon na comb, some of the hair back once i finish doing that, i try not to stay in one spot too, too long and yeah. I hope that this is, you know, helpful in a way, like i said in previous videos, i'm a visual learner, so i kind of don't know how to explain it, but i hope that y'all are getting the gift of it um. So now i'm just going to go in front of the hairline and pluck same motion that i was doing before plug plug skip plug plug skip and i'm trying to get the boxy look out of the way, because this hairline on the frontal is a little boxy. So by doing that, you do help that boxy look go away and it gives the illusion that the hairline is natural. Like i just mentioned a couple seconds ago. That is what i do to help the front tool. Not look so boxy because sometimes when you get your front tools depending on who the you know company is, it might be a little boxy. So that's just what i do to prevent that. Look because that boxy look is not natural whatsoever and don't do it too hard, because if you do it too hard, you will risk the lace being ripped and you'll have a little holes in it. So be careful, so the key thing into getting a flat middle part or a flat side part is your hot comb and your waxing i'm using she is bomb y'all, just seen it and you're going to want to just do this in sections. That is the best way to get in a flat part, because nobody likes the humpty dumpty bumpy. Looking wig, and this is going to help you make sure you don't get that hold up. Y'All do y'all, see that, like that, hairline is looking very natural. After doing that, method that i did with making sure that that boxy look is gone, that looks super natural. My canvas head looks like that. Hair is coming right out of its scalp scalpiana vibes. I just had to tell y'all that, like oh all, right so at this part, this is where i'm going to start plucking, my middle part. I usually don't do this, but the only reason why i am doing this is because the frontal is pretty dense, like it's thick behind the pre-plugged part. If that makes sense like y'all can see it's more red, so that means that it is more dense. It has more hair on the frontal and that's fine. It'S fine, because i'm just gon na pluck a little bit of it only a little bit in the front, not too much, not the whole line, because i don't want it to be stuck in the middle part. I know when you pluck your middle parts. You tend to have to leave it always in the middle part, because you pulled a lot of the hair out and i'm just going to do a little bit in the front and then cover the rest in some makeup or concealer. Alright, so boom here is a close-up of what the hairline is. Looking like, as you can see, the knots are not dark anymore, they're red they look so good. It looks so natural and it doesn't look boxy anymore at all and, like i said, i just put some concealer on the middle part. Just because i didn't want to you know plug too much of it off, but i hope that y'all found this video to be helpful and that y'all liked it and, if so, do not forget to like and subscribe.
