Atina Kinky Straight 360 Wig: 8 Month Update/Final Review

Hey everybody welcome back to my channel. This is karen by design and thank you for tuning in to another video guys, so i'm gon na get right into this video. But before i do that, i'm going to say if you are new to my channel, welcome and please remember, to subscribe, if you have not already subscribed, if you like this video after watching, make sure that you leave a thumbs up. Um also comment. I really love to hear your comments that way, i know what i should put out, what you guys are enjoying and whatnot. Okay, we've gotten that out of the way, let's now jump right into this video guys. So, as you can tell by the title, i'm giving you guys an update on this unit that i'm wearing yes, this is um a 360 frontal wig from atina that i purchased from ally express back in september. So i've had this wig now for about seven um over seven months, seven and a half months roughly and i've been wearing it. I'Ve been loving it. I get tons of questions on this wig, which is why i wanted to do a update so guys i've installed it. I have not glued it down. I wasn't in the mood to be gluing down here. I'M not going to be wearing this for long. However, i do find it's one of the wigs that i do gravitate towards more. I really like that. It is kind of more on the natural looking side and whatnot, so i do like that um initially, i didn't think it was going to be a weight that i gravitate towards or that i use, as you know, a very kind of low maintenance-ish kind of wig. Um, but it is it's not that low low maintenance, because it is from air to air, so the lace is from air to air. If the lace was perhaps a 5x5 um closure, as opposed to a frontal, then perhaps it would more be a easy going wig. However, if you don't care about the air tabs, you can definitely wear it glueless and just have your hair hang down and that solves the trick or the problem so guys i just want to quickly get into the specs and get into this update for you guys. So again, this here was purchased from um a vendor on aliexpress by the name of atina. It'S a 360 lace, frontal wig. It came pre-plucked um, although it needed a lot of plucking. This is 250 density guys, so the hairline was reflective of that. I did have to go in, i didn't do too much plucking initially, but i have gone in since, and i've done some more plucking uh. What else do i want to say about this hair? So this is a kinky straight hd lace. It'S not real hd lace. Let'S just make that very clear: it's not real hd lace, but that's how they describe it. On aliexpress, i paid about 220 canadian dollars for this unit, and this is in 18 inches in a natural brown or black, just a natural dark color, so guys, i'm gon na link my original um video to this in the description right so that you guys can Watch it if you're interested in in this hair - and i will also link the actual here in the description, if you're interested in purchasing it now guys. Since my initial review and install of this wig, i will say um, the hair has held up beautifully. I'Ve straightened. It um originally, i showed it to you guys in its curly state, first in its natural state, and i also curled it up with my wand. So i wanted to show you guys how it looks straightened. It'S still giving you that very textured vibe, it doesn't go bone straight, but this is how it kind of comes out. It'S really still soft, it's beautiful. It'S still lush. I have no complaints about this hair, except that it does shed so originally. I did indicate that in my first video that this hair sheds and sheds and sheds now, i did notice that the shedding kind of reduced after a while after i washed it it wasn't shedding as much so that was the fantastic thing about this. However, once i apply heat and not so much curling, but once i straightened this hair, i noticed that it started to shed more so um. That'S just what it is. The hair does shed, i feel like if you wash it and you don't apply heat, maybe you'll have less shedding, but when i apply heat i do use a heat protectant. I'Ve also tried just oils because who knows if heat protectants really do work, so i've tried both methods. So it's not anything with how i'm straightening the hair, the hair just sheds um. I did go back in and i bleached my knot and it bleached very well. However, the front um i couldn't catch all the knots. I was a little bit concerned because i had already cut the lace and i was getting really close to some of the hairs that i was having a hard time like pushing back. So i didn't let it sit for too long, so there are still spots that i probably will go back and bleach again, because i think it does look more natural um. The the knots on these are very on this unit is very prominent, so you can see it so i wanted to go and then bleach the knots. I had no issues with the actual bleaching. It'S just that in the front, because i had already cut the lace. I wanted to be a little bit careful because i did not want blonde roots um yeah this here also like in this state. You can curl it like uh. You know back in the days when you would relax your hair and get a roller set. This hair performs beautifully like that. It looks so nice, it looks, natural looks soft, it looks very wearable, but it still has a little bit of sex appeal to it. So i really feel like this unit is a versatile unit. I'Ve really been enjoying enjoying it um. So far, i haven't had any trouble with it. Aside from the shedding, like i mentioned before, this is how it's looking it's been over seven months um and i i love it. I really do love it guys, so i just wanted to come back and share that information with you um. It gets really high marks in terms of so many things, um the fullness, it's 250. So yes, it really was reflective of a 250 density unit um. When you curl it, it holds a curl. However, i will say if you curl it in its natural state with a big barrel, curling iron i've tried it as well, it does not hold its curl. You do need to kind of straighten. It then go in and curl it if you want like bigger roller set, curled hair. However, one curls not a problem, it holds those curls beautifully. Um, i'm going to show you how the hair looks once i washed it. It was so soft um beautiful i mean. I can't say anything else about this here: it's beautiful, i highly recommend it for the price, it's wonderful and yeah. I just wanted to come and give you guys that update, because i get so many questions on it. The only thing i have not tried to do is dye this hair, so i don't know how it would take with dye like i said, the knots bleached um relatively easy, so i don't think i don't foresee having an issue with dyeing the hair, but maybe in The next month, not month, no five months or so maybe i'll - try and put um a color on it and let you guys know if i do decide to do that. I will definitely update you. This video and my channel is geared towards people who are not getting free here right. We want to make sure that we have hair - that's going to last us here that looks nice still um without having necessarily to spend a whole lot of money for these things. So i hope you guys enjoyed this video again. If you did make sure you leave a thumbs up. Make sure that you leave me a comment. If you have any questions, i will put all of the specific details for this hair in my description box and that's about it guys. So until my next video bye
