How To : Sleek Quick Weave | Natural Look Tutorial | Alisha Brittany

When do i look at the camera, when do i look hi? What a surprise that you're here look at my face, i can't wait to show you more of my favs welcome back to my channel. My name is alicia brittany and today i'm going to be showing you guys how i achieve my sleek very natural, looking quick weave um. This is just pretty much my braid pattern. It'S cornrows, thanks to my mom, and i just have a little bit of a front out here - are some of the items that you're going to need pretty basic utensils for a quick weave, bonding glue, a cap make sure you have something to moisturize your hair with And also a type of hairspray that you like, i like to use both of those in conjunction and a blow dryer. Let'S get started um first, i'm just starting off by brushing out my edges. I don't like to leave too much leave out um around my edges. Just because i don't know, i feel like the more heat i have to add the more they're going to break off and i've been doing pretty good with my edges um as well as make sure when you are spraying the hairspray. You are making sure that you're not getting it on your leave out or spraying it into your face, so you sneeze, but make sure that you're not giving too much into your leave out, because you will be mad that your hair is frozen second place, especially once You blow dry it now. I know that there are so many items and products that you can use as a base. I know that they have that black protective gel, but i use it once and my mom will tell you i hated how it came out. It was so hard to get out of my hair even with the bond remover, so i just stick to using hairspray and it works. It still protects my hair and i do not have a problem taking it out afterwards. So i'm going ahead and adding a cap and, as you can see, i'm showing you guys that i'm using white eyeliner to go ahead and make indentation marks now. This is very important, especially when it comes to gluing and cutting, because you do not want to cut your leave out. I promise you would be very upset. I'Ve done it before i've learned from experience, make sure you mark where your leave out is and using light. Colored caps are better for me just so i can see my scalp. I have done quick things with black caps, but i just prefer the brown ones, because they're easier for me to see what i'm doing, i'm not a professional. But i also know that you know getting blue in your hair is never fun as well as getting hair spray parts that you don't want. It is not good so again use what you like to use um. This is just what i do to make it. Just look a little bit more seamless and just not so hard so after spraying layers and layers of the hairspray on top of the cap underneath the cap, you just want to keep making sure that you're drying it evenly. This makes it really hard, as you can see, i'm trying to see if it's getting any hardness um, you can actually go ahead and wrap it underneath. Oh, so guys i am going ahead and i'm at the part where i'm going to add hair. This is just simple beauty: supply, outre, remy hair. You don't need any special hair for this. Do not sleep on use by hair, i'm just going ahead and measuring out my wefts, i like to double them and cut two of the same length. This just makes the process that much easier to start. I went ahead and measured from under my ear to the other side of my ear and i'm just going to go ahead and place this right at the rim of the cap. Make sure not to get this on the back of your hair just go ahead spray. Some hairspray blow it make it a little tacky and then go ahead and place it right. Underneath i'm telling you guys this is such a simple process. It doesn't take long at all. Just make sure that you hold, i like to go ahead and blow dry, just to make sure that the hair is stuck to the catch it sticks. I don't know how this works necessarily, but it works. It sticks to the cap and it cap is on your head. So, oh, oh, oh hmm! So, as you can see, i just did the comb test and the comb test to me just make sure that all parts of my weft are intact. With the cap. You don't want to get through half of your quick weave and then realize that you have a track slipping, because it's really hard to apply glue to a part that you're not accessible to so just make sure in order to ensure that your tracks do not slip. That you blow dry after every left is applied or after every few wefts, and make sure that you're pressing it all around you guys, foreign, hmm, all right, you guys here, i'm at the halfway point - and this part is very intricate. Please be careful right here is where i'm cutting the cap just to make sure that i'm preparing my hair for the tension. It'S releasing the tension in the cap, just to make sure that when i do cut it at the end, it doesn't just all fall off. So right there at the very behind make sure you do not grab your leave out. I just go ahead and cut the smallest circle, and it's this gives me such anxiety, because i have cut my hair before doing this. So please be extra extra careful if you're likely like me, you'll see that the cap is going to start to rip a little bit get some runs in there and you're just going to ever so gently continue to cut small piece by piece. You guys, please do not cut your leave out. This is such an intricate part of the process, but i'm telling you doing it early and not waiting to the last minute to cut your cap is going to help you greatly. So after i cut it and get it all the way to the end, you're going to see that i'm going to pretty much flip, my braid leave out to the other side of the cap. So, as you can see, there's just that little thin band, i'm just gon na take my leave out and just flip it to the other side, and this is just to make sure that i can still see my leave out. I can still see where the edges are and i do not get any questions. Um. Oh, oh, oh uh, um, crap! Oh you guys! We are almost done with the quick weave, so, as you can see, i'm very close to the top, and i'm just making sure that i am being very, very careful here at the top again glue in your hair. Loosely is not fun live, learn from experience. Trust me believe me: it's not fun so up here, i'm just measuring out very, very, very intricately. How i want the top of my um part to be so how my hair works is. One part is thinner and longer than the other and the other part is thicker and shorter. So, in order to make sure it still comes out kind of even i just make sure to very carefully measure out um and once i'm done getting to the very top lash track, i'm just going ahead and blow drying it all through. As you can see, the weave looks kind of a mess but trust the process um, i'm just making sure that i'm blow drying it so that when i do cut that final part of the cap, it does not completely fall off my head, i have had that Happen before you guys have to take your time and make sure that you are blow drying it all the way through. So at this point, guys, you're, just gon na continue to cut off any excess cap that you see, do not worry about those spaces. In the very top of my head, i promise you, you will not see those once the look is finished. It'S just kind of how the cap is placed um, but go ahead and do your leave out. First trust me: you guys working on your leave out. First is going to make that process so much easier for me when i'm blending as long as my leave out gets straightened first, it kind of gives it time to get the frizz out. So i'm just going ahead and blow drying it through and i'm going to use my flat iron on the highest setting. My hair is used to the heat you guys so make sure that you're using the heat that's compatible with yours and i'm just going ahead and getting it through part it evenly in the middle. So for me, i like to put placement pieces, but in order for me to make sure that the placement pieces are exactly where i want them to be, i have to do wow guys, i'm just straightening out my hair and i'm just loving the shine it matches Perfectly, if you do not know that hack hair has already this kind of shine to it. So, that's why i don't mind my hair being a little oily, but at the end i did end up going to put some dry shampoo in it just to get a little shine out of my real hair. But i mean that is my real hair. I do want it to shine. I do want to be moisturized and protected, so i, as you can see, i don't even have to place some pieces in yet and it's already starting to blend it's very um to measure it out before you glue to your head and that's just because this is Going to a free part of your hair, so you want to make sure that it's not going to slide and then cause very bad breathing or damage make sure that you're, so don't worry about it. Trust me there is a proper way. Oh, oh! Oh! So you guys we are coming to the very end of the tutorial, as you can see, i'm just going ahead and putting my butterfly clamps in i love to use these.
