I might see some chief hi guys welcome back to my channel if you're new welcome. So today's video, i don't know how this is about to go, but i'm kind of excited to film it. So i did my makeup right, i'm like what do i want to film today and i didn't know what, but then i remembered i bought this braided wig that i didn't mean to do. A video on i've never ever tried a braided wig, and so that's what we're going to do because i want to see. I want to see how this looks like i don't know why i'm nervous um, it's called sis cysterwig. It is a 360 double d lace. Hd dutch box braid, i got it the color one, let's pull her out, let's just jump right into it, i'm like anxious, but, like i'm, really excited to do this, i don't know why i'm so nervous. So this is the wig. Let'S take it out of the wrapping and all that good stuff. How much were you how much i spent on this like really fifty dollars or something like that? How much were you i wan na sales like fifty dollars? I know i know i couldn't have spent more than that um. I hope not, let's unpack her and see what she's looking like. Okay has a little tag on it. Let you know what you're getting remy fiber you can put up to 400 degrees of heat on it, natural baby, hair. That'S what it's claiming to have natural baby hair, okay um! I guess let's put it on! Maybe i don't know if i need a wig cap for this, so here's how the inside is constructed. As you can see, you know you have your braid scalp braid scalp. They have it all parted for you. Surprisingly, when i look at it i mean there's not, but it's not like ultra naughty. If that makes sense. So let's just put it on and let's see, wait i think. Okay, it wants to be pushed back. I don't um. Okay, oh you know, i'm gon na be optimistic here. This lace is far too dark for me, but i don't know why i might see some chief. I don't know why i feel like we might be able to do something with this guys. Wait! A second okay! Oh now, you look from the side. Oh y'all couldn't, pluck it just a little bit like not just just a little bit. You could just pluck it a little bit, and i want to take these down and like redo that, but i don't know how to braid this good and that's like once. I take it down, it's going to be bad. So, let's just not look to the side and just look forward. I feel like it looks better when you're looking like that. So i mean i kind of think this looks cute. I got it too, but we got to customize it to try to make it look real all right. That is our task for today's video making. This look legit. So first, i'm gon na take it off because it's too dark. So we need to spray it for sure. Okay, it's like what i'm gon na do to test out the spray is i'm gon na spray? One part, let's just see if it makes a difference, i'm not gon na spray, the whole entire thing and commit. So, let's put it back on and test it. Oh wait! I sprayed it right there right, you can see a little difference. Okay, i think i think it's cool to spray. The entire thing with that i like how these patches, like where the braids are, are protecting. Like the hair, like it's only getting on the lace and nothing else, my hair's gon na be so dirty. When i take this off, it naturally wants to move back. It'S pretty small. I know it looks crazy, but you just have to wipe that even get a makeup. Wipe it'll be fine. Okay, i'm gon na cut this lace off because it is too dark and i would use that lace remover. That jade showed me. I could use that lace. Tint remover that jade showed me, but i don't know how long that takes and if i wet all this hair crap should i do that because, oh i don't trust it, though, because this synthetic hair means the lace may not be that strong, meaning the lace tint Remover may be too strong, it might make it a little bit. Let'S cut this part off to see if i'd be able to blend it. Oh yeah, i think i think i could live without um tinting, this for sure yeah for sure make that work. I'M trying to crop these damn baby hair because they all i got what old snap i'm gon na cut it off. Oh shoot: okay, okay, you don't have to use my real hair duh, but it's a jet black like my real hair. So we know how to improvise. We still got some baby hairs to work with. Okay, we straight bear with me: don't you in this video until i figure this out, let me get the gel and try to bolt this down. I'M gon na just leave a little bit of my baby hairs out because it means i'm gon na have to wash my hair after this anyways. Okay, we are slapping that gel on this looks crazy. I know, but i have high hopes i do it could look worse, i'm let that middle part dry first and then i'm gon na do um the sides, but before that dries completely, we need to get rid of this freaking spray in the baby hairs because that's Just making us look crazy, it's not the wig itself, okay, so i'm taking a wet towel, which is some water and i'm wiping over that part that has the spray. Oh, this is stressing me out before i wipe it off completely. Take their natural baby hairs, they're natural baby hairs, that's what they called it, not me, and i'm trying to lay that and then wipe on top. You got ta see trust me. Do i ever steer you wrong. I kind of like this like out like that. No okay, these hairs, i'm gon na, go back and fix the front part later, i'm trying to bait like how does she have them? How are these natural baby hairs? I'M trying to pull the braids down, let's gel the sides down by the way, i'm noticing the reason why it's looking like that, because on camera on my monster, it looks kind of mean, but in person don't look that bad. It'S because uh me wetting this wig with like the water that does make it look like shiny and weird it's not even just the product, so i'm gon na just go over with a blow dryer to get rid of that. I'M allowing it to look a little messy over here, because i feel like that, makes it look more natural, a little more gel to this side to lay that part down. I'M not gon na lie guys. I kind of like how this looks like i feel it does a little crazy, but i kind of like it's giving me very much editorial. You know what i mean like. I don't think it looks bad. You know i don't. I don't think that looks bad. I, like the wild baby hairs, they put them there for a reason. They wanted me to do this, so i i kind of think that looks cute. Would i wear this outside hell? No, i'm not gon na lie to you i'll, be to be the top of the town. This looks big as hell, but for photos. I could for sure finesse this and do something with to you know what i'm saying. So i have a couple more things to do by the way guys i got a new vanity. I found an offer up and my life is so much better now, because before my studio was getting such a mess, because i had like a little desk with no drawers, so everything was a mess. Now i have drawers where all like my important things are so, instead of having to leave everything on the desk, get it from the drawer use, it put it back, and my life will be so much easier, less stressed out, because filming with a whole bunch of Stuff in front of you is very chaotic: it's just stressful, and so oh it's too light. Oh, my gosh, okay, i just almost ruined it. Okay, let's wipe that off. Oh boy, okay, i'm not gon na use that color, i'm gon na use a slightly darker one. Okay, that was way too light. Oh, my gosh, i just feel, like my scalp, looks a little tan and that's not my natural scalp color, so i just want to make it a little lighter just a tad. I don't know if i made it worse or better. I can't tell i i don't know a little line, nothing too crazy. I don't got an orange scalp guys. I don't so we got ta make sure that the wig knows that too that's cool. I think that looks okay. I just wish the braids would stay down because they kind of want to do their own thing. I want to just pull them back like this. We do a little bun. No, we can't. Okay, let's pull it back, looks best like this. You know up close, it doesn't look that bad, like it's kind of giving me scalp a little bit, no kind of sort of it doesn't look, it doesn't look as bad as you would think it would look all right guys. I'M gon na go put on some earrings. I feel like they'll, bring me together all right guys. I put some earrings on one more thing: i'm gon na take some black eyeshadow. Oh, i got the purple. Instead, i'm gon na place it in front just to like tone that shininess down you guys see what i'm doing. I don't know how that looks. It'S gon na bother me someone. Let me just fix it a couple more things. These braids don't want to stay down. So i'm gon na take a bobby, pin and like bobby pin it down, so it could stay in place because it doesn't want to stay in pull and fork. I feel like it looks best that way and one more thing: a little sheen spray. Just for some zazz. I like how this smells okay, babe. Now we have to call some people to get some opinions. We can't end this video without doing that. I need to know what do you think call us first babe. I need your thoughts on something. What do you think do you think it looks good for instagram, not not the public? If you're going to live poverty union, that's the public alyssa. What do you mean skipping? You love a hip, hop it's giving me very loving. It keeps wanting to push back 2014. What does that get to buy the aesthetic like? No, i don't know i mean you can rock it. You can do whatever you want, like. I think you will make it look good, but she's very loving, okay, babe, i'm a next caller. I'M calling somebody else to tell me something good bye. That'S good, though. Thank you. Bye, bye, loving, hip-hop, okay, who else could i call my mom girl? Can you stay on my hairline for longer than two minutes mom you, let's make the same face though no you know why you're the plant behind you, it looks like antlers. I thought that was part of your hair. They can't see them playing. I'M playing above me and facetime looks like antlers, okay mine's a plant. What do you think? How do you think it looks? It looks cute right. It'S a wig yeah. I know you can't really talk like next year at work shock face. It'S a wig looks good, that's crazy, yeah right, yeah, that's crazy! Okay! This is good. You don't even know i'm unclockable i'm going to get back to work now she knew it was a wig. Okay, i'll call alexis. I'M calling two more people, then we're done. This is fun. This is fun gasps she's, not gon na answer. If she was an answer that she would have been answered by now, bloop, okay, kenneth, i need your thoughts, my hair, i love. This really is this. Is this like? Okay? I like this? No, it's a wig, it's cute yeah. I like that like it's different, but i kind of like that effect, and this is how it came. That'S cute some love guys. Look at that. I love it. Thank you. I'M gon na call one more person to get an opinion. Okay, thank you. Bye, i'm gon na call one last person, my friend bri she's, very blunt, she's gon na tell me she's gon na tell me the real deal. I mean everyone else has been honest too, but brie she'll tell me if i can go outside. Look like this or not. Let'S go please answer what would bri be doing at 2 44 right now? What would she be doing? Oh, i need your opinion. I need your opinion, i'm filming a video. I need your thoughts. What what's that? What do you think of my hair? You listen. My mom made the same face. No, no! No. I thought that plant was a part of your hair. Oh my god, my mom. She was like those animals, she said she said the same thing. No one could see the plan. What do you think outside of the antlers just tell me your thoughts from the front? I don't really care for it. It'S a wig. I know it's a wig. It looks like a wig, i told you guys but like like it's okay, though, if you have two, if you had no other wigs and you know you had to, but you wouldn't let me you wouldn't. Let me go to the club like that. That just meets the purpose, it does look wiggy, but i think the overall vibe is cute like i, i want to get my natural hair braided like this yeah i mean you look good with straight backs, but that looks like a wig bring it straight back. If you could, if you could break that yeah braid it tighter because it's it's, i don't know how to do that. Damn i mean i've seen worse. It don't look terrible, but it definitely looks like a wig that you bring it back. I told them you would like be brutally honest with me all right. Let me close up this video i'll call. You back all right. I told you guys in conclusion i'll leave that up to you, because i don't know because half them liked it half them were like the other half thought. I had antlers due to my plant that you guys can't see, but, honestly speaking, i had so much fun. Filming this video, like this totally put me in a good mood like earlier this morning, i'm like what am i gon na film, then something put me in a bad mood and i was trying to film a try and haul. I was like, oh my god like this, is not going well and my mood was just so effed. I was like dude like you need to film, because this is like my passion i like doing it and i don't want to. You know not be consistent, but then it's raining outside. So it's like something upsetting me and then the weather just had me in a gloom, but this was so much fun, and so, if you guys want to see me, try more braided, wigs or more wigs that i never wear before comment down below. I hope you guys enjoyed this video as much as i enjoyed filming it and i'll see you guys on wednesday. You

TOWANDA the STYLIST: You can literally pull off anything! Your so Gorgeous ❤️

Anita Page: I did enjoy the video! It was like a trip down "memory lane" where you try on someone else's style! It did look cute but perhaps there was too much of a "gap" between the braids to make it "believe-able"; color was right though! Thanks for the moment of fun doing the reviews on the phone - It was worth it to have some laughs/smiles !

Bethany: Alyssa said "This feels like Cardi with the braids!" but fr I think the only way you could make it better is to take the braids down and pluck it and then braid it back up. You did a good job with how it started out!

crj _: Arnell is over there performing small miracles to finesse this wig and make it look natural. from the front it’s not that bad, with your hands at customizing it I’m sure the sides could look less wiggy

María Linares: I love how she matched her nails with her phone cover

layla lou: definitely need this braided wig series to continue. likeee whats tea on khennyesther
