Synthetic wig, no leavout, natural,
Oh, it feels so good to be back. I have not won a synthetic wig in so long and I just feel like I am back now everybody what a big scam I am, and today I'm gon na be showing you guys. The steps that I take to make my synthetic wig look natural. I know a lot of people out. There are very interested in wearing weave and you know crossing over to the other side. Well, I am here to snatch up that wig virginity. So the unit I'm gon na be working with today, it's actually from a brand named sensational, the style of it is Anna and I'm gon na. Do it number two? So this is right in the middle between like black and brown: it's not too brown, but it's also not jet black um and when wearing your first wig, I do recommend you do a color like a number two, because the lighter you go, especially with synthetic wig. It'S just the harder to maintain, so this is a synthetic lace wig, so lace just means that it comes with the lace right here. This is the lace here. Is the inside construction of the wig. Here. Go the straps right here for this unit. These two things right here, so you would um just like put them like in these little pieces. I look at the parting space uh, they has potential and I will show you guys how to make that look natural and here's how the curl pattern of this unit looks. Okay, so I'm just gon na go ahead and cut the lace off of the unit. Now this is how the unit looks on my head before I do anything to it. I'Ll give you guys some close-ups of how it looks. This is what the parting space looks like I hate when people walk out of the house like this. It'S just like. Oh, my goodness, didn't you see can't my hands video, because I'm gon na show you how to fix this all right, so we're going to start with tweezing the part, the parting space and I'm going to put that back on a mannequin head to do so. Okay, so we are about to begin tweezing. So you see the parting of space is very small, so we're just going to just tweeze hair out just open up the space a little bit. The one of the biggest mistakes with tweezing is that people often tend to over tweeze and once you over tweeze, you can't get it back. So you really want to take your time while you're doing this, so you want to do it then take breaks. Look at it and so forth. Honestly, sometimes I get set up with tweezing, so I will part they don't do this if you're a beginner by the way, so I will part like a little bit of the hair, sometimes like how much I know I need tweeze like this. Much, for example, make sure you guys can see it so like this much, for example, and I will just yank it out, see, look just open it up. I literally just yanked out the hair. Don'T do that if you were a beginner, don't say I didn't warn you because sometimes the lace, this right here it can rip when you yank it out like that, so do that at your own risk now on human hair, wigs normally I like to apply my Foundation or concealer under the lace for it to shine through, but this unit isn't. I can't do it because this part right here is black and nothing will shine through. So we are going to put some powder and a little bit of concealer in the part. I'M gon na take my la girl Pro concealer in the shade, medium beige and just like an angle brush that I had laying around I'm. So I'm just gon na put some concealer just a little bit cuz. I don't like drowning my parts in concealer. So now, you're gon na insert this concealer in the parting space like that, and I'm just gon na take on this Black Radiance Foundation in the golden almond finish gon na set the part with this, and now that the powder is in there, I'm just going to Like blend it out a little bit and now after I've finished blending, it out we're gon na put it on my head and see what we're working with and see what else we can do to fix it. So before I put this on my head, I like just bumping it with the flat iron, so it lays flat because sometimes synthetic wigs have a tendency to like stick up like it's like a lobe bump. I don't know it's just a pet peeve of mine. Maybe there's an bothers some people, but it bothers me because I don't know this side just there's just like much flatter now. Okay, so right now I just put it on the wig on my head: I'm not wearing a wig cap needs to be brushed out of that um. You know just to bring out the curls, so I'm gon na give you guys. I don't know why. I always want to push some hair behind my ears. I'M gon na give you guys some close-ups of this look I'll, make sure you like comment and subscribe. Let me know what you think:

Sophia N: I love the curls! I just have a quick question. I've never worn a wig before, and I was just wondering, why do companies keep selling lace front wigs if everyone just cuts the lace off? Are there types of wigs without the lace? What is the benefit of having the lace? Again, I've never worn a wig so I'm really curious.
lizor: Just getting into cosplaying and most videos still aren’t helpful but THIS was awesome thank you!

I mean they're pretty but they need help but I got a film offer, and I got worried my cheap wigs would look awful on camera. I wish I had a natural looking, lace from wig, but, what is money? Lol I will definitely be trying this, and I subbed, cause I love your personality! You made me smile the whole time! Thank you!
Carlotta B.: Thank you! I'm a 22 year old girl who has shed a lot of hair and I now just have bald spots. I'm considering buying a wig but I don't have much money, hopefully this'll help me :)
DruidsCalling: Thank you, I love wearing wigs. I can turn a 4/10 wig into an 8/10 wig. Long white wigs ALWAYS have a shitty part, but now I can fix it :)
Samara La Rosa: I've been looking into buying a wig for a while because I can't commit to a hairstyle and having the option to change it whenever seems so great! I'm thinking of buying a cheaper synthetic wig to start just so I can see how I feel about it, so I've been trying to research like crazy lol. I know synthetic wigs can look very tacky and I would like mine to look as real as I can make it. This video is really great and I'm so glad I came across it!
