Installing My Own Tape Ins |Ywigs Hair Yaki Straight

This looks exactly like my hair. You could not tell me that this is in my hair. What is up you guys welcome back to my channel if you're new here my name is nikkiya simone, make sure you go ahead and hit that subscribe button, so you can become one of the home girls. Today'S video is sponsored by y wigs. We are going to be installing some payment extensions. They send me over some yaki stripes. It comes in this cute little box says why wiggle on it, they sent me 18, 20 and 22.. So here comes nicely packaged. It comes with a returning exchange form. It also comes with instructions on how to take care of the hair, which i think is really beneficial. It also comes with a pack of extra tape, so this these papers can be reused. Now again, this hair is yaki straight, so this hair is meant to mimic african-american hair. You know so it does have like a kinky texture to it. I did dye this hair jet black. I am going to show exactly how the hair comes. It'S like a natural brown, so each bundle that they sent me came with 40 tapes together 22 inch here and 40 tapes 20 inch here, 40 tapes. You see it looks like two bundles put together so 20 and 20 and then my 40 tapes of the 18 inch. Of course, i'm going to start with the longest in the back and i'm going to go up and up and up now i like my hair to be really thick and full and big. So i'm going to try to put as many tapes in as i can. I'M going to hope that i can get the best view for putting these types in, because it's going to be a little difficult working with the back of my head and not being able to see what i'm doing. So. Let'S just hope that this goes well. We'Re going to try our best, i'm going to leave all of the links in the description box on exactly how to get this hair. This is light yaki, so i'll leave all the links down below if you guys want to check it out. So, let's get straight into the video okay, so i started off by separating the areas that will not have tapes on it. Basically, like my leave out area, i use my rat tail home as like a test to see if it would be enough hair to cover the tapes. I pretty much use the same leave out method, as i would do for a quick weave like a versatile quickly. I also did like a middle part, it's like a guide for the center, but as you'll see later in the video, i actually ended up using more hair in the center and leaving out more hair, okay, and so these are all of the areas that i left Out this is what it looked like when i got done in the back and on the sides. So you really don't need a lot of hair in between the tape, so i parted very, very thin layers. Of course doing. This will also allow me to add more tapes in more rows of hair, so that is thicker and fuller. The way that i want it, the easiest way for me, was to take my rat tail comb and stick it on the bottom of the tape in and then just add it to my part. Now i didn't put the tape directly on my scalp, so i did pull it down a little bit so that it's comfortable to pull it up into a ponytail um. I actually like flipping it and doing the back of it first. The way that you see me do it so: stick the tape on and then flip the hair up and then lay the tape on top of it. That way, it's already giving you that shape of a ponytail, so you know it'll, be comfortable to put it up in a ponytail. So that was the easiest method for me and it actually takes two tapes for one section of hair, so you have to kind of like sandwich it if that makes sense. But it was actually easier for me to do row by row as a p as opposed to doing each individual sandwich. So you see me, do the two flips up and then i flipped it down sandwiched. It flat ironed the adhesive at the top, just so that it sticks really well, and then i went row by row that way, and it was easier for me now. This little area in the middle was bothering me. I know one full tape is not gon na fit there because it'll be overlapping the other tapes. So your girl cut it right in half and scrolls it right on in i'm not sure if you're supposed to cut the tapes. But it worked for me and i'm filling in all the gaps me and look at that not too bad for my first row yep. So one row down a thousand more to go y'all, so i just continued on with thin layers, then thin layers towards the bottom of my hair, and what i would do is, i would part, a layer down and continue to use the upside down method. That'S what i'm going to call it the upside down method. So basically, i put my rat tail comb on the tape flip the hair upside down and lay the tape a little bit away from my part, and i just continue to do row by row so basically laying the first layer of the tapes in a row. So basically i'm laying the peanut butter and then i flip the tapes back down once i lay my row down and then sandwich it with the jelly. So, as you can see, i only use the red tail comb to lay the peanut butter. I don't use the rag tail comb to do the top. It just doesn't work out that way. So i just use my fingers and try to line it up as closely as possible. Now i pretty much followed the same method all the way through, so i'm not going to bore you guys, but i do want to mention, as you are going higher and higher, with your rows in the back you're going to start to curve your parts, so they Won'T be straight across anymore, as you get higher and higher it'll kind of curve over to the side a little bit, so you basically want to go in the direction of your ponytail. So you see how the sides, now that i'm getting a little bit higher, i'm kind of curving around to the front of my face. So you just want to make sure that you're going like in a circular motion, if that makes sense or kind of like a round motion and not straight across the higher that you get all right, so i'm almost halfway through. So what i did was i just separated my hair um and did like a middle part kind of like towards the middle of my head, and then i actually separated the top half into two sections, because i was going to start laying tracks on the sides of My head, so i separated those into two individual ponytails, because those tapes are gon na lay in opposite directions: okay, so we're gon na get started to lay the tapes on the side. I'M just gon na put that hair in the back away, so it doesn't get in the way and we're gon na start to lay our tracks sideways still using thin layers um. I didn't mention that, as i got to the top, when i was laying my tracks in the back, i did use kind of like thicker parts a little bit i didn't use like such thin parts i put like a layer in between the tapes just so that It looks more natural and you couldn't see the tapes up top. So that's just another tip, but i pretty much followed the same method here. I'M putting the tapes in it does get a little bit easier, putting them in on the sides. Then, of course doing the back also when you lay your first layer and then you flip the hair back down you're going to have to pick up whatever strands are not sticking to the tape, you know, don't add unnecessary hair in the sandwich. If you don't have to so only what sticks to the tapes is what you want to sandwich. So i don't know if you've seen it, you may need to go back and rewind it, but basically, when i flipped it down, there were like some strands that really weren't sticking to the tape i lifted it up and made sure that only the hair that was Sticking to the tapes were sandwiched and i'm still laying the tapes with the flow of my parts. So, as you can see, i'm kind of curving them. So it's kind of straight on the sides and it kind of curves around the perimeter of my head, like in a round kind of shape. So just keep that in mind when you're laying down make sure that you're going with the flow of your parts, all right - and it was about right here when i realized that i was going to need a lot more hair out in the center than what i Left out, so i kind of made like a little round circle in the front, which is going to be my perimeter that i know that i don't want out and any hair that was under there. That was thick. I just went and added a few more layers wherever i saw fit, so i think right here, i did maybe about two more layers around the back in that circular form um in between this little thick piece of hair, and i feel like that was pretty much It, let's see um and for whatever reason for this particular row, i did each individual sandwich, which kind of takes longer, as opposed to going row by row like i was doing before, because this actually took longer. But i'm not sure if, when other people do it, they do each individual sandwich at a time. But i think that it's faster to go in a row. But, for whatever reason, i didn't do it that way this time, which is why it took a little bit longer. I didn't mention either you guys, of course, my parts are not perfect, um doing the back of your head. It'S not that easy to make a a clean knee part, but i did try to make sure that, after the rose and the top that i did put like a nice amount of hair in between the layer like as you can see, i just parted out a Nice layer of hair to go over those tapes more dog - i also recommend straightening your tapes before you put them in. I did that in some of the previous clips, just because i didn't want to add extra damage to my hair. So when you see me with the flat irons, i'm pretty much just making sure that the tapes are sandwiched together very well, they do have other instruments. You could use to do that, like kind of like some pliers looking tools, but i don't have any so. Of course, i use my flat irons, but just try not to add too much heat to your natural hair all right now, i really could have stopped here and just left the rest of the crown out, but, like i said, i like my hair to be very Full and thick so i actually did go in on the sides and just add a few more strips to the side. But you can kind of gauge this on your own, depending on your hair type, if you need to add some extra tapes, but i went ahead and add a few tapes on each side and just remember whatever you do to one side make sure you do it To the other side, so that your hair is even, but that was pretty much it you guys - and this is pretty much how the hair turns out. So now i'm just going to show you the versatility that these tape ins have all the different styles, putting it up into a ponytail, putting it in a bun you're going to see me play with it for a little while you can skip to the end. If you don't want to see that - and you want to hear more about the hair, however, i really really love how they came out so yeah enjoy this baby, all right, you guys, so that was the end of the video um. I installed pretty much all of the tapes i have 20 left from the shortest bundle, which was the 18 inch. I did leave a lot of hair out in the middle that way i'll be able to switch up the parts. So if i want to do a side part i'm going to do a middle part, i can so a lot of this hair. Here is my hair. I am going to curl it tomorrow. Um. However, it did take me a while to install these tapes. So i'm not going to curl it tonight, i'm going to wait till tomorrow, so i didn't cut it or anything or do anything to it just yet. I think i might put some light layers in the front of it for my hair, since it's a little bit shorter is kind of coming off his layers already, so i may or may not cut it. The ends of this hair look pretty cool. It looks natural. I don't really have any complaints. Um i've not seeing a whole lot of shedding with the hair either. So that's pretty good. I will say that it wasn't super duper, easy um installing them myself. However, it is possible, it's doable um. It'S just gon na take a while, but it is kind of tedious, so um just be prepared. If you are gon na be doing them on your own, it is going to take you a little while, but just be patient. Take your time take a break. If you need to don't try to do these the same day as if you have an event because it'll ruin it so just make sure that you set a whole day inside to put in your tables if you're going to be doing it on your own. However, i think they turned out really really well. I'M really um happy with my results, definitely definitely happy with the hair from whiteways. I don't have any complaints again, like i said, i'm going to be doing a video to follow up, maybe in about a week or two, so i may even keep them in and wash them. You know if they don't start to bother me or anything like that. I'Ll, probably keep them in a little bit longer and do a updated review on them.
