Best Knotless Braid Wig| Beauty & Braids

Welcome back to another video in today's video we're gon na be doing a knot this week. I wanted to start off this video by showing you um my growth as far as bleaching the knots i'm not a wig specialist, or anything like that. So i am learning as i go as far as customizing the wig before i start braiding it - and i am getting better at that. I only lightly pluck the very edge um and i just pluck throughout the wig as needed, um. So to begin. I always start out by parting out the wig into sections um. I usually do three sections two in the front and then the one in the back. So this one i'm doing right here, um right here, i'm just showing you that i sometimes leave out a roll of hair in the back. If i have that kind of dip down in the back - and i do go with like a natural curve of the head now - the customer can either cut this off or they can keep it. But you know it's totally optional, but i do leave it out. You know as if just like i do like for the edges i like to leave out a little bit of hair in the back next, i'm going to begin parting, as i've stated before in previous videos. Um with the parting, you have to figure out a system that works for you, um. You will get better the more that you do these wigs and right here, i'm starting the braid process and what i like to do is i like to section off the hair by row. Well, well, i guess it'll be called pre parting. I would pre pre-part the hair that way i won't have to part after every braid. So i just pre-part and then the pieces that i leave down are the ones that i would braid first and then, once those are completed, i will go back and do the pieces of hair that i pinned up. Excuse me, i am a little bit under the weather the green can is holding spray. I just use the holding spray to kind of help me um keep the hair under control, because this is more like of a um silky, texture hair. So i just try to um use different products. I don't like to use a lot of edge control or anything like that and as i braid, if you, if you would notice, i don't go um adding product. You know down the braid as i'm braiding. This just me, i see a lot of people do that. That'S just not something that i ever practiced doing and i just feel like they will just slow me down to each its own. You know everybody does things differently. I just don't do that, but i do feel like it is a good thing to do. It will save you time once the style is finished. It will save you time without having to go back and trim off so much hair because by me not using product. I do tend to have a lot more flyaway hairs than someone um who use products throughout their braidwood, which you know. I really don't mind it. I'M used to it. But if there's something that you don't want slowing you down, if you want to just do the style be done with it, dip the ends and be over then hey. Do it the other way. I tried on this one i tried to make the video i tried to cut it down as short as possible, but i still try to get like some really good details in there. You guys please um, respond and leave me like some comments or some feedback, and let me know like do you like longer in-depth videos? Do you just kind of like want me to touch like the bases on these videos? Do you like, when i describe what i'm doing while i'm writing? Do you, like just hearing me, talk about different things? Like i don't know, i kind of just go off the top of my head or how i'm feeling - or you know, what's been going on that week. That'S what i kind of do so right here is what i was talking about. Um. I try to go braid by braid and just kind of clean them up as i go. Sometimes i don't do that. Sometimes i just braid and just do it all at the end, and it does take a couple of hours to do but, like i said i don't mind it um, but it's just a personal preference for me. I just do things you know if i, if i find something that'll help me work, quick work, um quicker, then that's what i'll try to do and i'm just showing you the breakdown process. As i move up the back of the head now, this customer then asks for the ombre color, which is so beautiful to me. I really love how this turned out and i have had other customers to change um to the ombre. After seeing this, so you know i like, when i get, you know things that's kind of different besides just the basic black which i like the black, but you know it's nice to get some color here and there, and everyone just loves how this wig turned out. This is knotless, as you can see, this is a full lace, and with that i'm really trying to trying to see on my instagram, i had stated that i was probably going to go to all full lace and i would um still offer closure wigs for those Who might you know, have some type of special needs or something special requests, but i've had people who would prefer a lace front. So i like to be able to offer different things, but i do see a lot of people who do braided wigs. They just do full lace only and which is understandable because we're braiders like we don't you know. Most people don't want to have to go through sewing on lace, fronts and sewing closures. They just want to just you know: customize, the lid and braid, but you know i don't mind i like being one to offer something different, offering something that other people don't offer. You know that's what sets me apart and i don't know if i'll be doing that forever, but for now you know as i'm building as i'm growing, you know, as people are getting to know me, i'm gon na. Do you know whatever i need to do to accommodate my customers, because i truly truly appreciate everybody who supports me. Everybody who trusts me and you know everybody who's um spreading the word and helping me grow. Thank you so much so right here. I just tried to do like a different angle. Um at this time i didn't um. I was just using my phone like propped up, but i do have a different like gadget now and i'm gon na try to start using it more to give you guys like a better view, if you don't know how to um knotless braid or like feed the Hair in i try to do like different angles so that you can see, i normally braid. Excuse me i normally braid down, maybe like twice and then i will um start to add. I start off with like a small piece of hair, because you have to introduce the hair. You have to introduce the um the piece of um extension hair to the actual hair. That'S the way i feel like if you just start adding in like big pieces of hair, it's just not gon na. It'S not gon na give you a consistent braid so start off with like small piece, a small piece, and then you can just you know, go bigger! That'S what i do this is my favorite part doing the edges. This part right here is really just you know. Do whatever you want to do it, whatever kind of style you like, i just kind of customize it for pictures, but i do leave it long enough for my customers if they want to um, keep them or if they want to cut them, or you know whatever They still have enough hair on there to do it to their liking, so i just do something basic and that's the final look on the edges, and this is the completed and final look of the wig. I really love how it looks in the sunlight, i'm so glad it was a sunny day this day and it's just so so beautiful the ombre ends. I just love it, so i just want to thank you guys for watching um.
