How To Customize Frontal Wig (Bleaching+ Plucking+Styling)| Xanthe Naomi

Hey guys welcome all welcome back to my channel, i'm zach naomi, if you're new and in today's video i'm going to be walking you through how i bleach and pluck my frontal legs. I bought this beautiful unit from asteria hair and i absolutely love the curl pattern. With the hair they sent over a few goodies and i received an edge band, which is amazing for that ultimate melt, a wig cap and a guide on how to take care of the hair. So this is how the unit looks and i'm so sorry guys, because this angle is not doing the hair. This is a 250 density and you can definitely see that this wig is full okay. It is also 32 inches and has h delays girl. Look at that lace. Okay, it's giving, and i can't wait to install this unit. The wake comes with three combs one in the back and two in the top, like most weights. Do, however, i always remove the two at the front because i have no use for it, but i keep the one in the back, because it helps with securing my weight down to remove the combs. I just take my little scissors and cut the part of the comb. That'S sewn down be careful when you're doing this because guys you do not want to cut the lace. Usually, if you cut a small piece and pull it comes right off. So, moving on to the bleaching process, whenever i bleach my units, i always use bw2 powder and a 30 volume developer, but for everyone the developer is different, based on preference, i've used 40 and 20 and they both work. It just depends on how long you want to wait for the bleach to actually you know bleach the knots. So the first thing i do is take less than a cup full of bleach and pour it into a bowl. I'M only bleaching the frontal. So a lot of bleach isn't needed next, i add some developer, but not too much guys. You don't want the consistency to be liquidy, because you want the same consistency like as mayo or toothpaste, so that when you apply it to the frontal it isn't leaking through and i'm so proud of myself, because that was the first time i ever put the exact Amount needed - and if you know you know now, i'm just mixing it and making sure that the consistency is exactly right and how i want it to be now. It'S time to apply the bleach to the pronto i'll, be using a butter knife to apply the bleach because it just helps apply it evenly throughout the frontal. When you're applying the frontal, you want to make sure you're getting the entire frontal and making sure that it isn't leaking through to the hair itself. You also want to be sure that you're not pressing too hard, when applying some pressure is good, but don't press too hard or it will leak through guys so be extremely extremely careful and patient with yourself. To be honest with you, this lace really didn't need to be bleached like it was fine, the way it was, but to give it that ultimate melt, i decided to bleach it and also based on preference. I always bleach my wigs after i'm done applying the bleach to the entire frontal, i'm going to wait about 30 minutes for it to bleach. I would recommend you guys check in every 15 to 20 minutes to see how it's doing and to make sure that it isn't over bleaching. When i did this, it took me about 40 minutes until i washed it out after i'm happy with how it looks. I'M going to wash the bleach out with warm water and then i'm going to wash the frontal with this neutralizing shampoo conditioner. This is just gon na make sure that the bleach process stops and removes all the bleach, and then i'm gon na wash the frontal. With this shimmer lights, shampoo, blonde and silver - and this is just going to tone the brassiness of the bleach up down - and i usually leave that on for about five minutes and then wash it out. You want the wig to look as natural as possible. So doing this step is necessary. Can we just take a moment to appreciate this bleaching like i didn't over bleach or anything, and i loved that for me next, i'm going to add the wig onto a wig head, but first placing a white towel underneath. So i could better pluck the frontal now it's time for me to pluck this unit, i'm going to take my rat tail comb. What do you guys call this comb? I'Ve always grown up, calling it a rat tail comb anyway, i'm going to take my comb and push back the hair, so it's neat while plucking and then i'm also going to part the baby hairs out because that part is already plucked. Next, i'm going to take my tweezers and start plucking now guys to explain this is extremely hard. So please bear with me what i do is hold the hair down and pull with my non-dominant hand, and i use my dominant hand to pluck with i'm just plucking in a range at first making sure that i don't stay in one area for too long. Because, then, that would cause you to have a bond spot and we don't want that so, like i said, i'm just plucking in one area and making sure that i don't stay in that one area for too long, i'm also plucking the front and also a little Bit in the back, if you really pay attention, you can see what i'm doing, and i really hope that this makes sense and if not just look at what i'm doing and follow that as i pluck. I also pull the hair back to make sure that it's doing what i want it to do, and after like a minute or so of plucking, i take the comb and comb the hair back to make sure that i'm liking how it's looking so far. Plucking. Isn'T the easiest thing guys i've been doing it for almost three years and i'm still learning you have to be patient with yourself and just keep trying if you don't get it on the first goal. That'S fine, but you have to continue to practice so that you can actually learn how to do it. Remember guys. Plucking is a preference. You don't have to plug the same way that i do or as much as i do. That'S just what i like and how i like my frontals to be, but you can do whatever you like now, i'm just gon na go ahead and speed up the video and you guys can watch the process. I also forgot to mention that i find it so much easier to pluck when the hair is wet. You can do it while it's dry, but i just find that it's easier to deal with and to see the results when it's wet - hmm, okay, guys. So this is how the frontal is looking now that it's all nice and plucked - and i absolutely love it. I know that it may be looking thin, but that's just a towel underneath making it look like that. This is what i like. So this is how much hair i plucked out, and it's going to be a lot guys, don't be afraid to pluck that hair. It'S normal for this much hair to come out so don't be concerned. If you see this much hair now that the hair is bleached and plucked, we want to make it look as flat and sleek as possible. I think this is my favorite part about customizing a weight. I decided to part this wig down the middle just to make it easy and for the sake of the video i haven't decided, if that's how i'm going to wear it is yet or if i'm going to change it. So i'm going to take my wax stick and apply it to the front of the hairline and also on top of the hair. Then i'm going to clean up that part and make sure everything is where it needs to be, and then i'm going to take my hot comb and make that hair flat. Okay! Next, i'm going to take my got to be spray and spray that, on top of the hair, this is going to make sure the hair is flat flat and ensure that it doesn't go anywhere. If you guys don't have a hot comb, i definitely recommend you get one. This tool is a life saver and definitely changes the game. Remember i'll, have everything linked in the description box down below. So if you're curious about anything that i'm talking about in the video any products or the hair itself, i'll link it down below now for the front, i'm going to take my wax stick and push the hairline back. Then i'm going to take my got to be and spray that, on top of the part that i just sprayed the wax with, then i'm going to wait about a minute for it to dry. I realize that if i don't wait for it to dry, then once i use my hot comb, i'm going to get like these little particles, but to avoid that you just wait a minute for not to dry completely, but just for it to dry a little bit. Then i'm going to take my hot comb and slowly and steadily comb the hair back. You want to be intentional when you're doing this, because you're molding the hair, basically like once you do this, the hair is not going to move that hair. It don't move okay. This is just going to give it that final sleek and clean look - and i know you guys - are gon na see it like don't lie, don't lie to yourself, hmm, and this is how the hair is looking guys, i'm absolutely in love and cannot wait to install This unit, the lace, is amazing and this whole process has been so easy. I think i took less less than 20 minutes to pluck this wig, which is crazy to me. That'S like a new record. I will be doing a video like a whole video on how i install um my lace weights.
