How To Color A Silk Closure Wig Safely (Jet Black)

Hey guys welcome back to beauty by c/d. Today'S video is a video on how to color your wig closure, black or any other color safely, without damaging your lace. So in this video this will be a custom made wig that I created for a client and I'm using a soap base. The soap base happens to come in a very white caucasian look, and this young lady is not fair skinned. So it's not gon na work. For her, so I decided to go ahead and custom color for her and the way that I'm gon na do that is I'm going to set this wig on a mannequin. I'M gon na slightly wet it a little bit so that I can start the product. I'M gon na use a couple of boxes of black because she wanted jet-black. I use Beijing, I put the numbers in the description box and what I did here was go ahead and I sectioned off all of the closure portions. So that way, I can work with everything else. I use a couple of bottles of semi-permanent Clairol jet-black, also just to kind of get it like really lubricated. I don't like to totally use only black black permanent color and mix it up with the semi-permanent I'm going to use this beige in black in number 56, as you just saw, and here is the instruction, so I don't have to list it so pretty much all You have to do is use whatever is in the box. It comes with a little plastic and you use that to get the color going. It comes in powder that plastic cap that you see, in my hand, is kind of like a measuring cup and you're gon na add hot water to it, and once you add the hot water to it, you put the powder in the mixing bowl and you just Stir it along and let it sit and you'll see that it starts to thicken up very simple. So what I did is I had a couple of two mixing bowls and another two sets of brushes one formed a permanent color and one for the semi-permanent and I'm mixing everything together and then keeping it off to the side. All right. So I'm gon na get started by sectioning. This hair off to the side and I'm gon na do is just laughs because you need very, very you need a lot of attention to it. So you want to make sure you do everything else and move over to the side so for the base of the hair, I'm going to use the semi-permanent and I'm dipping. The semi-permanent makes this this firm at times, because I thought I can just polish all up their hair like this, but I noticed, as I was going along that, because this here's about 22 inches all of the hair was pretty much drinking up you're the color. So I actually had to go out and get some more color, because you have to remember when you're using extensions and it's not your hair, there's a lot more strength heat than there. So it's a little thicker, so you and then having to use more hair, especially if you want to get all over even color. So I went ahead and I made sure I got more color just so that the job could be complete and I didn't have to go back and not having up and stretch it the wrong way. So when something is doing the all-over base area, I'm going to start moving into my closing area, I'm using a music at ELQ home along with a spoolie, and you can use a makeup spoolie. It could be one for whatever you use for your eyebrows, or sometimes it's just a spoolie or the stick by itself, and I use the successfully you know, get the color into the grooves of the hair and get as close as possible to my lace. So it's almost like you're doing a perm and you want to get close to the roots as possible and you're getting the cream right to the top. I'M going to demonstrate here, I'm going to polish the underbelly and then I'm gon na polish, the top there yeah. If that's bully just kind of get close, because if you use a brush, you may go over it and that kind of creates spillage into your your slow pace, which you don't want. I'M gon na show you another piece here where I get a little closer. Sorry for the quality of the video, I was trying to get it going in my kitchen, but you can clearly see what I'm doing here. So I'm gon na take this ability and get the color going and I'm polishing the underbelly in small small, small sections of hair. When is it small to that? Where you get a lot, you get a lot more done in terms of getting all the color onto the hair. It takes a little longer. That'S because you're taking like small strips of hair and you're polishing in it, you know step by step, but trust me. It'S worth it and you won't mess up your soap base. The soap bases are usually a little bit more expensive than the lace base. So you want to make sure you take your time and color it, especially if it were quite hard for you already, but go ahead and take a small slice of luck here and polish it with the spoolie from nume. Then, once you pass the roots, you know. That'S like the safe area, once you tap, that you can go ahead and take this coloring brush and just polish it, as you see I'm doing here, and I just lay it down boss, decides to turn me wrong to mix and then sort of constantly repeat this Process before I'm done, this was a pretty large space for it so face the crease. It came up a lot of space, pretty big spaces, a little bit bigger than traditional one, which is good. You can get more parties, the work been done across America and then it checks my work and also I'm gon na show you guys how I color my challah color is the base for the soup base closure and I decided to go ahead and wait a little While I wanted to get the process done with the coloring and the next flip it over wet the hair and then I went into the base and I custom colored it and how I did that was using some foundation, and I can't really give you a formula For it, but whatever the person color is you do it a little lighter? It can be exactly this. The foundation color because it might be a little too red two rounds. I'M gon na go something lighter. I think I used a 4222 trollin. We are here, along with a little bit of saddle to brown it up and then left it off a little while I kind of eyeballed it and all I did was stain it from the under belly and it kind of penetrated to the top. I just wanted a little bit of color just a little bit so literally you're, leaving it on for less than 10 minutes or you watch it and you take it off. If you leave it on for too long, it will stain it pretty well and it's kind of hard to understand it. So I finished doing everything you guys, and luckily I have a dryer in the home and all I did was I put some setting lotion on it. Some detangling spray brushed her down and put it over under the dryer, and here it is. The client is trying on her wig that I created for her and she's got a middle part. Look at that scalp, you guys. That is awesome and she totally loved it and it looked like it was coming out from her roots and she was totally happy. This concludes the video you guys. I hope this helped someone in coloring their lace closure, so closure. If you like what you see here, I don't forget to Like comment and subscribe to my channel. Thank you. You
