Keys To A Neat And Clean Closure Install! Learn To Pluck, Install, And Curl Like A Pro -Isee Hair

Or welcome back to my channel, it's your girl, caroline, and welcome to part two of making this a wig from a scratch. This is a body wave unit. Well, this is a body weight wig that i made myself, but the bundles and the closure is from icy hair company. I already have a part one showing how i constructed the wig. So if you haven't seen that, if you want to know how to make your own wigs, then go ahead and check that out and let's get into the plucking and styling of this video picking off right, we left off in part one of making this wig. This is the hair fully air dried the next day after it has sit in a silicone conditioner mix which helps the hair, get nice and strong and shiny. What i'm doing right now is i'm going in and pressing the roots out with my hot comb. Before i used to pluck my hair wet, i thought it was easier to see the hairline when it's all slicked back wet, but i've realized plucking it. While it's dry is so much better because now i can see the full thickness of the hair, because sometimes with plucking, when it's wet i can under or over pluck, i can't tell how thick the hair is, because it is wet so plucking it dry works much Better, but to help me still see the hairline, it's important that i take my time to push and press back that hairline like it needs to be flat flat. So i can see all of the knots. I part the hair in the middle, because the middle part is the part that you just can't part once you part once you've over plucked. Your middle part just know you're not wearing the hair. In the middle part, it's not gon na look right. So i always like to part the hair down the middle push that side away. So that way, i make sure i know not to pluck right here: do not pluck down the middle. Only when you're trying like unless you're trying to like you know make your part look wider, but that's later push that to the side. We'Re gon na be plucking this side. First, look at the track. Sticking up, i got ta go sew that down can y'all see. I hope y'all can see back with that hot comb again. I need this hair to be slick and pressed out, and i don't recommend putting like wax or anything during this part, because it's just for plucking, you don't want to be out here: you're, not styling, you're. Just trying to plug all right, i've got my handy, dandy tweezers. These are my favorite ones only ones i used to pluck. I don't use anything else. These are the goat, they work for me and they work the best and they last the longest i'll. Try link it down below, but it's from revlon i got these from target. Walmart sells it amazon has it so once my hairline is nicely it pulled back right. This is why it's important to make sure it's nice and pulled back. I'M also been using my hand too, as you can see, this wig came a little bit, can y'all see. So, as you can see, the hairline up here is like just like right right here. It'S a little bit pre-plug the company that for us they'd get a little bit pre-plucking. So what i like to do is that i still keep the idea of not plugging in the front. You don't want to start off plucking these front hairs, because that's how you get over plucking bald spots, especially trying to do baby hair. So i avoid plucking up here. I take my tweezer and i start plucking from back here. Where i see the hairline is starting to get thicker and i like to pull, skip, skip right here, pull skip, pull and i'm just going in between the hair and grabbing, but making sure i'm not grabbing up here, which is already been plucked. And i just kind of like you know, create little gaps in between the hair and, like always, make sure you're pulling it from the roots. Sorry, my wig hit you wiggly, but if you want like a more beginner friendly tutorial on how i pluck i do have a few recent videos out on those to check out. But this is just my new updated way of plucking. My wigs and i feel like this way the wigs have been looking so much like scalp like that hairline like look at that already y'all see that she's already giving and i make sure i'm going more further back too and i'm not just plucking in the same Spot, like i'm literally going in between these little in between spaces and i'm pulling from there because loki like you, see how, like there's like little gaps now, like you, see, hair, no hair, hair, no hair hair, no hair, like you see that that's what we're going For that's the thinned out hairline that we're trying to achieve you feel me so at the same time we're avoiding plucking down here and we're avoiding plugging up here. But now look if your wig is thick all the way. Y'All see that 100. It is doing it for me only thing with this is that you'd want to also be mindful of not making like the gaps too big, like don't, have like fat gaps, because now the hairline looks weird like a checkerboard. I don't know like try to make them like, literally as thin as your actual tweezer like thin. It should be thin gaps, not fat, very obvious gaps like no don't do that boom. Y'All see see that beautiful gorgeous. Now this side is done. I don't want to pluck too much i'm trying to over pluck her and then i'll just go back my with my hot comb again to push the hairline back, so i can see all right cool now we can go ahead and do this side. I wonder if i died is, and all that said it's time to finally install this wig. So the first thing i was doing, i was just going ahead with my foundation to just help me tint the lace to get it to be a perfect match onto my forehead, i'm using my evan lace spray. As my adhesive. It is a glueless spray. I just go ahead and make sure i spray that right on top of the lace, mainly towards where i'm going to be cutting the lace, the edge of it - and i just use my finger to spread that product around to make sure it's spreading everywhere. Nice and evenly once i've got a nice and even spread. I just use my blow dryer and the back of this edge control brush to help push down the lace and also just make sure everything is getting nice and stuck. I'M also combing through the hair, to help it not get too hard and crunchy to cut off my lace. I am using a brow razor using a brow. Razor helps give you more of a jagged effect on the way the lace looks when it lays on your head, and this kind of like melts more naturally into your hairline, and i try to cut up as much lace as possible, since my lace was a little Bit tacky from the hairspray i went ahead and pulled out the hairs i want to use for my baby hairs and just press them down into the little tacky residue. That'S going to just going to help press down those hairs and make it easier for laying i like to let my hair just stay in an elastic band and let the lace finish. Drying and melting. Before i proceed to swooping my baby hairs, while i'm letting the lace dry and the baby hairs that i pull down to get flat, i'm using my hot comb to help me press out my part and you know start carving out the way. I want the hair to be shaped as part of cleaning up my hairline. I also like to use this little eyeliner. This is black eyeliner, random, eyeliner and i'm using that to just clean in the over bleached parts. So my part can look nice and crispy lace is done drying and i'm just going here and trying to you know brush out the hair, so it can swoop and move around easily when it comes to creating my baby hairs. I just know that i need to cut them down in a diagonal um way, so that way, like the hairs in the front are a little bit shorter and it just looks more feathered. You don't want to cut it all one length straight across, so you try to want to cut it down in a. I don't explain it, but, as you can see like visually, the hairs towards the middle of the part is way shorter and it just goes down in an angular cut. I can't explain it, but you get what i'm trying to say so, once i've kind of cut those down to the way. I want it to be i'm going in my tweezer and trying to just thinning out a little bit, because i don't want it to be too thick, don't be afraid to cut your baby hairs, don't be afraid to pluck them. So i like to do a little bit of plucking, so they're, nice and thin and fluffy i'm gon na be using my eco styler gel to help me lay them down to me once my baby hairs have been swooped, i'm going in the same elastic band. So just hold down my hairline and let the baby hairs finish drying and getting a laid it's time to do some styling for styling. I was trying to keep it very simple and clean, i'm just going and adding some layers and for my layers same thing like my baby hairs cut it in an angular cut, always feel like layers just make the hair flow better, and especially for curly hair. The curls just look better whenever there are some layers, i'm using this chi shine, infusion spray to help add some shine and body to the hair, as well as to act as a heat protectant. My styling tool of choice today is this hot tools: curling iron. I believe this is a 1 in 1 4 barrel. It'S really big and helps make really nice pretty loose curls, i'm trying to make sure i'm curling my hair to the back of the room so away from my face, and i also try to make sure i hold the curls in my hand just to let you Make sure they form and cool before letting them drop is my will is weak do to once i was done curling all of the hair i decided to you know just run my fingers. I always run my fingers through my curls first before proceeding to brush them. Just to see, if i like the more tighter look, but of course i just like my curls brushed out and i've never been someone who could curl my hair all at once and not have to re-curl there's always some tweaking needs to be done. So, as you're going to see me go now, i go back with that same curling iron and i just try to like re-curl some areas, because this is a certain look that i'm going for whenever i curl my hair. So i have to always - you know, do some tweaking here and there to i wonder if my god, after i've tweaked and played with the hair to my liking. Here we are with the final look, i also off camera. I forgot to record this part, but i added some concealer right in the middle of my part, just to really help it. You know pop and i always use like a light concealer it's about two shades lighter than me, but here we are at the final look. I enjoyed it. Thank you guys so much for following me.
