Hello guys and welcome to my channel my name is confidence luo, a hair subject, matter expert I'm right here to give you tips on how to achieve Flawless, breaded, weeds and hair Meats, and so today we'll be learning how to make short pixie cuts, and these are The things you'll be needing your spray, your um tape, your hanky, your bone, your extension, afro B, and then your stocking cup, the your unused clothes. You need as the to act as your hair. Okay, so quickly we'll go to um, loosening the extension. Of course you don't use it like this from the back. If you're used to short hairs, then you understand what I'm doing here. You want to cut the end out you're going to divide each weft into you can see what I'm doing sorry about my voice. I think I've been awake through the night, I have uh. I have a pressing job. Okay, so the next thing you want to do is to take measurement of your head. Sorry guys about my voice. I hope you can hear me and I am off a head size of 23. Now this is the unused clothes I was talking about. This is what you're going to do with them. Of course, you know if you want to do this on your head you're, if you're not on um skin Cuts, then there is hair on your head. So if you're doing it as a wig, you need something to act as your hair right just to make sure everything is perfect and nice, and then that will go that extension at the back um a plain mannequin head can give it to you. You need something to form it. Can you see that okay, now you want to place your Anki over it. Your Anki and the stocking cap is what your wig will made up of. At the end of the day, every other thing will be taken out. The essence of the Anki is so that we can actually customize this cup to be to be in the shape we want, and then it will not be so light. We cannot use two because there'll be a lot of a lot of stuff that will be going on on the cup, so you get to see it and if we are using two along the line, one is going to separate from one at some point. You know so that's why we're using one. So then you want to measure and see the measurement length and then from the front airline to the back Airline. I am of the size of my side. Conference is 23 and my front headline to my back. Airline is 14 inches, which is the average head size and I use my head for you know. If I'm on the averages side, it means a lot of people can wait. If we get away just people with extreme small heads that cannot. Okay, now you can see what this looks like, so you want to make an opening on the ear part on top of the ear remember. This is now my size, so, on top of the ear is also where my the top of my ear is. You want to cut it open and then use your bond to create the shape of a hair line, your hairline on your head. Can you see this okay? Now, let's start bonding, please when you start um, when you start using your glue, don't apply it on the extension and use it immediately. Don'T let it get quite tacky just allow it a little bit to not look as wet and then it's ready to use again. I'M very sorry about my voice. Please you want to keep your first, your first track. You want to keep it very close to the edges of your necks, okay, very close to the edges of your neck. Can you see what I'm doing, but please note on the extra materials on the mannequin follow the edges of your nets. You know we're going to take this off. So if you miss it, then it's going to rip off when you're trying to take the cap off and if you take it too far, it's not going to lay out as flat. So you want to be very mindful with your first track. Okay, you want to really press it in like, after applying your tracks, press it in with your strength, adjust anyway. Maybe some parts look quite High. You could just press it downwards and that's pretty much it. You can see how this the shape of this mannequin is giving us the shape of someone's head that has hair and wearing a stocking cap. That'S what we're looking at it's so sad! I could not get the I. I was not able to get the picture from the clients that actually got this she's, not my regular client. She just saw it and she got it. I didn't get her contacts in this short weeks, sell out quite fast. So if you do this as a business, I think um just do a few practice, a few practices, maybe one or two to practice, to make sure you've gotten your onions quite well, and you can Market this for quite a reasonable amount. The extensions are not expensive, depending on where you're getting it from guys. I'M so sorry about the way I sound man, I've been awake. I hope you can hear me I'll, try and increase the volume of my voice, though so that's pretty much it. We are done with the back part. You want to do a few lines and trim the back. This is my razor comb I use Clipper sometimes, but for this purpose and this guy had to spawn my video anyways, he's saying hi to you guys, okay, so you I want to stream my back part, because that's the only place I'll be going quite flat. The other part will not be so Flats, not really so flat and um yeah, that's pretty much it if you're used to making short hair. I hope this is gon na help you a lot and if you're not or there's something you cannot. You don't understand. Just mention it in the comment section I this video is quite long man, but if you're used to doing short hairs, I know you understand what I'm doing and if you're not used to doing short hairs, it's not easy to learn how to do short, hair from Youtube video: you need to understand the basics. Okay, can you see the transition? Can you see that? Can you see you have just look at that? Okay, so you're going to continue a few more times to get past your sidebars and then you start going around and then choose your trimming pattern. You know you need to have a look in mind before you know what um the pattern of trimming you want to use. I don't I try to use because it's a wig. I try to use my spray every single time, but just a little and then I press it really in, and you see that yeah that's just about it I'll go you see how intentionally I created my sidebars, the area around the sidebars and your back. The back of your head, you don't get to um, you don't get to space it as much, but the other parts you don't get to keep them quite close else. They will not look very natural, especially if you're going for a flat look. So at this point we're going around, don't forget what I told you try to keep your tracks very close to the edge of your stocking cup. Don'T go past! It don't give it too much space. So you just keep going round and round round and round the the. What should I, how should I sing this song now the extension on the cup goes round and round. My son would say when when then well - oh guys, okay, this is you can see that the space is not giving us a circle. So when you continue to a point, you're going to stop and do something else, because if you continue like this, it's not going to end up as a circle. Okay, I hope you pick a learning from this and for those of you who are already used to making short hairs, I want you to try to recreate something and I'll drop. The link to my Instagram um in the description box of this video, please post and tag me I want to see what it looks like and then share your experience in the comment section. Can you see what I'm doing now the space that is remaining? If I continue at Circle, it will not make sense, so I just keep lining it until it's close by see where I've got it now. So I've created my circle in the end and then I just want to close it up. I'M going to trim it and pretty much it and then um. I did not add the trimming parts in this video because the truth is the trimming is in your mind, but if you want me to if you, if you want me to redo another one and just record the trimming, then stitches in the comment section I'll be Right there with you, the shape of this week is giving and yes guys before I forget - I don't take it off the mannequin the same day. I leave it for at least 20 hours, so that means it has to stay till the next day. No matter the time you did it, you just want to keep it till the next day, so I'll use my TP to take a little of my glue and then put it in the middle of the place. I ended my my last Circle and then press it really hard press it in and stretch it out while pressing in so they don't. You know, yeah the trimming. Video, the trimming part is not quite detailed because, like I said, the trimming is in your mind. You need to know what you have in mind before you understand the pattern of trimming you want to use.
