(No Sound)How To: Make A 5X5 Closure Wig Quick With Hot Glue Gun

What is up YouTube welcome back to my Channel today, I'm switching it up and doing a wick tutorial for you guys in this video. I will show you the strategy of using a hot glue gun with a 5 by 5 closure, 5 inches 24 24 22, and my closure is 20 inches um in this video I'll show you how I plugged how I applied and what the product, the products that I used so stay tuned if you want to continue watching well stay tuned and continue watching if you want to learn how to do it. Thank you. So, of course, in this video I will show you how to bleach the closure. So here I have the BW um powder Lightner. I didn't use much of it. Of course, cuz it was the closure, I'm using the Klara pure white volume, 30 developer um. I didn't get the 40 just because I wanted to be careful with this closure. Hence it's from Amazon um I'll get to that later I have the mixing bowl and the brush, not necessarily not a necessity, but you can't use it. If you have it, I have the aluminum foil and of course I have the closure. The closure, like I stated before, is from Amazon they're just 20 inches and it is thebomb.com. Please do not sleep on Amazon's closures. Well, don't sleep on that one in particular, I will link it down below, so you guys can see how good it worked for me and how I made it. Look so good um yeah, so I'm just gon na basically bleach the nuts and I'll get back to you guys when that is over okay, so I said I would get back to you guys, but I just want to acknowledge how good this culture looks um. It is, it came, I think it came free plugged and it is transparent as Earth to my skin already without bleaching it. So you know I'm excited to do this because it is not that much work to get it good, so stay tuned. Okay, so basically here is the first step um I use my spray bottle. It'S filled with water. I basically just spray the hair spray, the water on the hair, to kind of push it back so that the bleach won't get on the hair um. This is very essential because you do not want any blonde pieces when you're trying to wear a darker way, so I just push um just braid the hair and backwards so that you know it won't be in the way. So then, I'm just lay it flat and basically kind of prepare for your application of the bleach. So this video and the last video were supposed to be switched, but it doesn't really matter because you still get the gist of the same situation. But please do not mind my cafeteria gloves. Those are the only ones I had and the bleach cannot get on my skin anywho um. Basically, with this I just guesstimate, you know the powder in the developer, consistency. Oh my put one or two the see. I think one cup or that tiny little teaspoon of bleach no yet bleach the bleaching powder, and then I took some of the developer and, like I said I just guesstimated the right consistency for myself. You should know that the consistency should be pasty not to lose. Where it can go inside the do nots of the closure and, of course that's what Victoire, it doesn't even spray. So here I'm just mixing them the two um things up to get the right consistency for myself and yeah it'll. I don't know you just have to guess me, your own you're, I don't know what I'm trying to say just basically get it to the right consistency for you and just make sure it's not runny and too sticky, like I stated before, I think mine was too Sticky and I needed to put a little bit more developer on there, but I didn't record that part. So here is the fun part. I am spreading the bleach across the closure so that you can get to the desired melt. It looks to the skin and I tell y'all this closure. I don't know how many times I got a state, but this closure look so good and it took so well to the bleach and there was a couple hairs coming up in the middle cause. I don't know why that was happening, but it was nothing to just pick him up and get him out get them out of the way um. But yes, I was just continuing to spread the bleach across the closure and yeah make sure you're not pressing into the closure to where it's it's seeping through just make sure that it's being spread across okay. So we have gotten to the end of bleaching the knots, so I'm just gon na move it excess bleach. I have right there and I'm gon na let the I'm gon na let the hair process for about 15 10 to 15 minutes, and I will get back to after that is over okay. So here I am washing the bleach off the closure. After about 10 to 15 minutes, I'm using the shimmer light shampoo. This is basically helping that just basically helps me get the freshness out. So I rinsed the bleach off the closure. First and foremost just make sure it's off everywhere. So it's just not you know, being washed in with the bleach, and I have some bleach over there in the corner, but I'm getting it out yeah, because I'm gon na get it out. So here I'm showing you how much it's blending into my skin, how good it is blending into my skin. It looks like it doesn't. Even look like a closure to me. Obviously, you're gon na see the net a little bit but, as you know, it's a wig, but to me it looks really good still from this angle as well. So here I am putting the purple shimmer light shampoo on here and basically I'm just gon na wash. It off - and I hope everybody knows how to wash anything here - clothes anything so yeah, I'm just gon na wash it off speed it up because, like I said, everybody shouldn't know how to wash hair. Hopefully, if you're watching this video, you know how to wash so yeah wash wash wash here, I'm just using my t pins to kind of keep the cap down, as I you know, make the wig or no, as I sew my clothes you're on. I keep these pins here. I think I take them off while I'm applying the tracks to the head so yeah. This is just how I keep it. You know steady for me sewing so here I'm applying my closure. This is five by five. As you know, I'm using my t pins to basically place the closure. You know on the head. I pushed the closure a little bit above, you know the edge of the cap so that it will give it more of a natural look when the wig finishes. I think after I ended up sewing it kind of moved pushed it back anyway, but I kind of pushed it up to even give us some space so that it won't move up as much so I just placed the t pants basically on each for the color. Each of the four corners um - I didn't record every one of them, but yeah you just put it on every part of the closure so that it it's always this big. I use a spandex big cap, I'm I just started using these. If, for some reason I love them, they just kind of fit tighter on my head and yeah. So this is the one I use you can use any other type, but I use this one in here. As you can see, all four corners are locked in on the cap and I'm just basically moving the clothes out of the way so that I can so, though, the closure on the cap, without any hairs being in the way say yeah. So here I am tying up the knot to begin. My own sewing string basically just make a knot at the top of your string so that it won't slip to your clothes, your clothes. Yes, it's almost up that your closure and then you basically begin to sew. Okay: here's where it gets a bit a bit confusing, but just just listen closely. So you pull the string through the closure and the recap. Without going through the elastic band you push through and you pull the string all the way through and then once you pull that through you push it in again, make sure being sure not to attach the elastic band to the closure or the cap and I'm having A hard time pushing it through okay and once you push it through, you wrap the string around the needle two or three times, and I did I did it three times and then basically you just pull 34 times. Okay, so I pull the closure or publish the needle through so that it can make a knot with in the closure so that it will not loosen up while you have it while you're sewing it just won't loosen up. Well, it shouldn't as long as it's hot enough um. You can do as many of the everies knots as you want, but you know I just do one or two mainly so that you know it won't come out and then after that, you just you just so. Basically, I think here I'm doing another one. Let'S see once again do not get that elastic band attached, because I will just take away the stretchiness okay now, so I begin to sew just sewing. The closure on this is pretty self-explanatory. Just push the needle through the cap and just sew and if you just keep going basically until you're almost to the end okay, so here I'm just gon na speed it up a little bit more just because this is kind of a you know, longer process when It'S just in regular motion, but you know it's pretty easy. Um sewing. I don't have a sewing video. If you guys want that. I can give you that reg slow down, you can, you know see which needles you want, or you know what color threads you want. If you guys want that just comment below comment down below and I would give that to you, but yes, I'm just being ass up because the sewing is it's pretty. You know self-explanatory if you know what you're doing okay, so I'm at the end of this thread, whether I'm at the end of this side of the closure um. Usually people do this side in the back. I didn't have enough thread, so I just finished it here. Um, so just like how I started, I nodded it up. Wrapping wrapping the thread around the needle about three times and this time I did it twice just to have it secured on there. So I put it through once again and I wrapped it around the needle two or three times to three or four times so three times I did it bigger and I just pulled it through his first security like it. It was. It was wasn't going anywhere after that, so here I just speed the video up a lot because you know, like I said before I just kind of took a minute, but to start it off, I nodded it up once again and I made the threat longer. So I could just finish the closure on one piece of thread. So yeah here, I'm just you know, sewing the West rest of the closure on and I'll come back to you guys once that is finished, so the closure is on. It is nice and flat um for some strange reason. 5X5 coaches are so much more difficult for me than 4x4, but it still gets flat for me. It just takes me a little bit longer and obviously it's gon na take a little bit longer. Cuz it's 5x5 ignou 4x4, but yeah. I sewed it on and here's the next step. So here is a putt. You have all been waiting for. I grabbed my first bundle and I haven't cut any of the bundles, but I just lay the hot glue on the cap. I start at the very edge of the cap and I just lay my my track on the glue. Do not let it dry on you before you lay the track down, make sure you're ready to lay the track down as soon as you put the glue down so that you will not drown you, because once it's dry it will it will not. You know it won't, stick so just make sure you're putting the track on there as soon as you. Let it go down. Basically I'm just putting it. I don't, you know, do long pieces with the glue. I do short pieces so that I would have time to just lay the track on the cap before it dries up on me because, like I said it does dry very, very fast, so yeah you just do that basically and all the way until you get to The other side, the other edge of your cap, okay, so once I get to the edge you take the last piece and you make sure it's glued down and right here I cut my tracks. I cut mine just because it gives me a flatter look, and you know I don't do the flip over with method with a hot glue gun cuz. I just don't know how to do, and I think it's pointless so I just had to you know, glue the edge down a little bit more because it was lifting a little bit after I cut the hair, but after I cut it, you know I just use That same track - and I go around and do the same exact thing that I just did to the first one. So, basically, I'm just gon na come back and talk by how many bundles you have. You can basically guesstimate the UM space you put in between each bundle. I literally fit all of my bundles. If not, you know, majority of them on this way cap by putting them all, you know closed, or you know guesstimating how far they need to be. I think this is still my first bundle, so I will get back to you guys once I'm at the top. So here I am closer to the top on the Mirai. My second bundle second or third puzzle, I'm not sure, but the same rules apply even to the top. Those tracks just may be a little bit shorter because I'm coming to an end so yeah as you go up, the tracks will get shorter because it's not much that it has to go around, but eventually I won't be going around it'll just go straight. You know from from side to side, it'll show you that once I get there, but yet it's just the same all the way around all throughout the week that you do the same things with the track. You ok, so I think this was the last check. I did before I started to go across. Like I told you, you were gon na do the same thing, all the way up to the top and just only a couple pieces will go across. I don't do that across method that you know some people do. Majority of the people that I've watched that may wigs have done it this way, but you know everybody's different in their own way, but this is just my you know: strategy of it. This is what works for me and I love it so yeah. This is what I'm gon na continue to do now. I am about to start putting the tracks to from side to side. This is, this is pretty simple on the tracks will be small because it's you know it's not that much space. So I just take the glue. Oh wait! No! Okay! Yeah! I'M going from side to side. Now I just confuse myself a little bit. My apologies, but yes, here's me going from side to side um once I do that you just do the same thing. You cut the bundle and then you cut twice and cut you place. He cut you place, you cut so yeah, it's just the same thing and once you get to the top whatever over bundles you have left, you can either go places in open areas or you could just leave it be because it looks fine, it's just whatever your Preference is so here is the finishing look before it is stout, of course, and this is also before I plug I'm just blow drying it out. So the closure can, you know, sit right. I guess and yeah I'll get back to you and I'm about to start plugging okay, so the plugin can be the most difficult part for some people, but it's really just finding your niche and finding the best look for you and sticking with it. It didn't take me that long to you know not how to plug just because once you get prefrontal enclosures it doesn't it doesn't. You know require that much work, but you do want a natural look, so it does require some plucking. So here I'll just separate, you know the edge, that's you know the most pup to the part that doesn't look like it's plucked at all and I keep that hair. That'S you know in the front out of the way, and I push the hair to the back and I usually wet it so that you know it's placed right. The hair, that's in the back, I'd waited, I don't know where I went for so long. But okay, I moved it this time, so I'll put mousse on it, so that I could push the hair back and be able to see how I was plucking. So now just basically take my tweezers and I hold the hair. That'S at the bottom down - and I just I don't - have a specific strategy for plucking. I kind of just move around on the hairline of the hair and just pluck try to make it look as natural as possible. I pluck towards the back so that i can also see how it's going and, as you can tell already it's giving me more of a scalp look. If you can see that it's it's pushing back more and as i comb the hair out, you can see that things are being plucked. So once again, I just I just pull it back and sometimes I'm like right on the edge, and sometimes I go further back so that I'm plucking behind the hairline. That'S already there um and I just I just keep plucking until I I find my desired look. So yeah this is basically you know the comfort of how you like your front tool or closure and what you like. Oh sometimes, my strategy doesn't work for everyone, but it works perfectly fine. For me, I separate the hair again and I basically do the same thing. I just did so yeah it's it's pretty self-explanatory, I'm just gon na! Let you watch the video so that you can see how it goes, and this is the finishing look after a flatiron the whole week and I kind of customized the middle part a little bit just how I customized up closure and, of course, you've seen me. Do the front this is the same video that was at the beginning of my video, so you kind of know what it looks like next, I'm just gon na enter AB dry installed the wig on my sister's head and her dancing in it. Of course, that's what whoa whoa whoa get out hug it out baby
