True Scalp Tape | Balayage Highlight Lace Wig | Megalook

Foreign, hey babes, if you are new here, welcome now's a good time to go ahead and subscribe and, as you guys can see from the title, today's video is in collaboration with Megan look and, of course, y'all can see already. This is quite a look. First of all, I am bringing you their 13x4 Balayage straight unit. This is 180 density and I have already pre-bleached the knots. I'Ve completely washed conditioned it and it is about damp right. So what I like to do when my units are damp, I like to go ahead and just kind of tweeze them out. I have a ton when I say a ton, a plethora, okay, a video showing you how to customize these units. So if you are not, you know super privy to how to do this yourself, don't be afraid to just go throughout my catalog and see what it is that you can create yourself as well. So, of course, I'm just going through with some tweezers I like to make sure that I kind of tweeze behind the hairline before really plucking out the front, I always like to really shape the hair, so this is just something standard. I do. I usually trim off about an inch or two before I even install the unit. That'S just because I prefer really blunt ends. I did go ahead and allow the hair to completely air dry. It took about a day, of course, and so this is what the color looks like. It was definitely different for me, the hair was super soft. I did notice a little bit of shedding. Obviously I did plea well bleach and bleach the knots, and I also completely tweeze this out. So I'm not sure if that was just like. Naturally, some of the hair is still falling out or what but we'll see right. So I'm gon na be sure to kind of give you guys an update here, I'm just making sure that I kind of style up the unit, I'm actually using a hairspray. This Frizz Ease I've had for years. Okay, and you guys can see. I was getting some shedding there and again. I really really think that this just came from me tweezing it out. To be honest, I never really did a very detailed brush through so we'll see what it's given, but first things. First, I wanted to go ahead and just try this on make sure that everything was lined up, and I did notice that I needed to kind of tweeze around the hairline. I did go ahead and actually add some true scalp tape into the inside of the wig. If you guys need to see a video on that, I have a ton. Y'All know I typically do glueless installs, but in this case I wanted to just add a little bit of glue a very light holding glue, um, nothing crazy. All right. I also went ahead and added a little bit of foundation just to you the actual lace up, underneath, because I did notice that the actual lace itself, although it's transparent, it was not super HD to the point that it was just going to melt on its own. Keep in mind this is an affordable unit, so you guys are always like Chrissy. We want something that we can really really just like grab go. You aren't worried about your investment as much as some of the wigs that I've shown you before. So I definitely just want to kind of do this, for you guys giving you something affordable. That still is going to pack a lot of color flavor, all right, all that good stuff. I definitely like the way that everything just was sitting, as is, I ended up going ahead and trimming off the lace off camera. I think my camera just simply cut off, but you guys can see I'm using that same Foundation trick to go ahead and just kind of blend in that hairline. Just a teeny, tiny bit more and y'all. This color was a shocker for me all right. It was given very Beyonce. Y'All will be the judge, y'all stay, trying to tell me that I look like somebody so very serious to see what you guys will get from this. My only comment is that I actually should have gone back around the hairline near the ear areas to actually further lay down the ear flaps. You guys may not have noticed it until. I just said it now, but you guys will see what I'm talking about. Of course, I do get that parting space. This is at 13 by four. I really really really really really have to fight back the urge to do the baby hair, because I just really wanted to kind of install this with less baby hair and more showing off that hairline showing off the color, um and so yeah. This is what we're doing for now and then, of course, I'm actually just going to go ahead and style. This up y'all know I'm never really satisfied with hair until I have added some type of shape to it. So today's no different, I did go ahead and actually just use my razor comb to very lightly go through the hair. These are not perfect layers at all. I wanted to kind of face frame just a small bit, so I kind of took the hair to about the bottom of my lip and just bring pretty much drag that down the razor blade. All the way down into a diagonal motion, because I knew the hair was definitely going to be more so on that on the side. Right because this is the side part, and so I just lightly added a little bit of layers around the other side of my head as well. You guys can see. I'M literally just dragging this down and y'all know my trick with uh hot Combs. Typically, I will go ahead and just add a little bit of hair wax or any type of hairspray to help everything lay flatter. But I didn't have to do this because once I set everything and allowed it to air dry, I actually used mousse. So that was really good, and so the mousse helped the hair pretty much lay down as flat as possible without me having to do too too much and then keep in mind. I did previously use a little hairspray around the hairline as well, and you guys can see everything looks really good for this to be a Balayage coming to me without having to do any additional work, I thought they did a really really great job now. For me, I do think that the color should have been a little bit more warm just on my skin. That'S just my preference right. The color is absolutely Divine. I really think they did a great job with bleaching everything you guys can see. There'S no yellow tone. Everything is nice and toned out, so you are truly getting a unit that is professionally dyed and, of course, every unit is going to have a little bit of difference right because when you're doing that Balayage, you there's just no way possible for them to recreate this Exact same unit in terms of hey Chrissy, you had a highlight you know at the Navy for Nick versus. I have a highlight on the side of my ear right, that's the whole point in custom units. I really really like what they did here. Of course, your unit will come highlighted all over, but with that Balayage effect, it really just allows for everything to kind of bleed effortlessly from the root to the tip. So I'm actually just taking my two inch curling rod and I don't care remember where I got this I feel like it may have been Target, but I'm just literally putting some very loose curls into the unit. Nothing too crazy. I just wanted a soft wave. Look. That'S kind of what I've been going for these days. Less is definitely more again when I take this off. First of all, the wig is already looking good. Let'S just talk about that, but when I take this off, you guys will really see what I mean. Look at the color, the highlights, and so far so good the shedding has stopped. So that was really good. I know a lot of times. You work, you guys are like Well Chrissy. How long did you wear this one for this particular unit? I wore it for three days before deciding to take it off. I want to go ahead and reinstall it after toning down the color. So what I'll end up doing - and let me know if that's something you guys will want to see um. I want to actually just do a watercolor on this using more of like a copper, reddish tone. Just because I don't know, I'm feeling a little spicy and I love how nicely bleached these knots are. Everything is just looking smooth. So in case you guys are wondering when it comes to curling the front of your hair, always curl away. That way. You really kind of get that lifted effect and then, of course, the curl will flow as you expect it to so look at that blend and you guys can see what I'm talking about. If you look really closely next to my ear, you can kind of see where it was lifting just a Teensy tiny bit had I take it a little bit more glue, we would have been fine, or even just some hairspray, keep in mind when I'm filming these Videos y'all - I am doing this and the smallest possible mirror not by choice. It'S just it's it's what it is. Okay, I need a better setup when it comes to that, but y'all, that's neither here nor there. This unit looks absolutely beautiful, I'm so excited to be showing you this Mega. Look. Thank you so much for sending me this unit y'all here I am again contemplating the baby hair just because I knew had I done that. Oh baby. Okay, now we talking, but I decided to go ahead and just kind of trim off a little bit of the hair in the front. Just so it makes it easier to blend, and you guys can see just how effortless everything lays super happy with this. I'M curious to hear from you so definitely leave any comments or questions down below the makeup is giving. I have not done a makeup video in a while the routine is, I don't want to say it's different, but it's new okay. So I definitely want to bring this to. You definitely give this a thumbs up. If that's the video you guys would like to see, let me know how you feel about it. Are we cool with the Balayage? What is it giving okay and y'all know just for the sake of the video, I always try to just pin the hair up just to see what it's gon na give and y'all it was still cute.
