Exposed!!The Truth About Wigs! Big Sale Ends In 1 Day Ft Hairvivi

Can I just point out again that I haven't done anything: hey guys, welcome back to my Channel today, I'm coming to you guys with another wig video wig tutorial, but I want to talk to you guys a little bit about hair. First of all how to choose her, how to get into wigs things that they just don't tell you about wigs so, first and foremost, wigs are expensive. Okay, hair in general is expensive. The first wig I ever had was one that I made and I bought here from Tiana Taylor's hair line. I bought three bundles and I paid something like four hundred pounds for the bundles and I bought a new pop closure before I even knew what a new pod closure was. I just I saw something online. I thought it looked amazing. It had no not. There was nothing to bleach, it literally looked like it was coming out of the scalp, it was silk, pressed it looked like a fake scalp, so that was my introduction to fake style, or you know realistic, looking hair and that you pop close up was 200 pounds And you guys that was just normal hair, it wasn't cut, it wasn't style, it wasn't colored, it was nothing. It was just plain natural, bundles and a you part closure, and I went on YouTube and tried to figure out how to make a wig, because I said to myself: I already spent six hundred pounds, that's not including customs and shipping and all that stuff, six hundred Pounds to get it from the u.s. to here, I'm not paying any more money for somebody to make this into a wig. I'M doing it myself. That was my introduction two weeks ever since then, I haven't really looked back. That wig. That I made was one of the best weeks I've ever had in my entire life that wig still looks brand-new. In fact, it looks so good that I was able to give it to someone else and they wear it, and it looks amazing. I don't know if you guys have ever watched any documentaries on how your hair is so how they get the Malaysian the Peruvian, the indian remy. All of that. But I've watched quite a few and basically what an ethical process looks like is that they got. And finally, ladies and manufacturers will go out, find these ladies and their hair is you super super long, all the way down to their knees, and they will cut off hard for maybe all of it and they would sell it for a reasonable prices that these? Ladies can go out and actually live their life from the money that they receive, like they get a good wage they are supposed to. However, not all companies do that in some of the documentaries in the research that I've done. I know that some Indian hair is sourced from religious events where women cut off their hair, I'm not too familiar with the rituals or the religious event. So I apologize if I say something, that's incorrect, because I might have a lot of ignorance on the matter, but from what I have seen right. They have these religious events where they sacrifice their hair, they sacrifice their beauty and that hair gets taken and it's sold to the Western market. As in giving me hair or whatever hair that you're gon na get and most times that hair is good quality 12. Maybe even 16 years to grow to this length very very expensive. I mean a kilo of hair. This length would be easily $ 2,500, but there is a practice, that's done, which is really bad, where the hair hasn't been cut off of someone's head. It'S been taken from shredded hair from a solo or a shop yeah, it's just not good quality here, a toy is it hits, and that's literally dead split ends all that kind of stuff and what they do. They pick it all up. They wash it process. It treat it with some chemicals make it look really amazing and wavy and nice, and then they package it and sell it off to you. And then you go off and buy this hair thinking that it's indian remy or thinking that it's peruvian or whatever it is, and it looks good out of the box, but as soon as you wash it that hair becomes trash literally trash like the ends. You can see they're all split, they look, it just looks horrible and by the time you try to detangle it. It'S just a no amount of conditioner or anything would work on it because that hit is trash. I used to go to my local beauty shop. We have in London that was my first introduction to weaves extensions. That sort of thing I used to braid my hair before that with just Molly. Yet I also to make Molly hair look like you know. He looked like extensions and stuff. That'S the polish. I got those videos, then the down below, but that's another time, but anyway back to this story, I would wear those weeds for like two weeks and by that time the hair had already started to map it started to get tangled in the back, a staff to Cut it out because it wasn't remy hair, it wasn't good quality hair, it was absolutely hair, but you couldn't sleep on because they would matte. It'S like. The hairs got so tangled together and twisted that it end up looking like a bird's nest and no amount of oil or gel or whatever it could straighten out those heads, and you know why that's happened because the hair was bad quality. It was cheap. I have also heard horror stories from people who sound like life and like the eggs in there in are you paid 30 40 pounds for a bundle and in two weeks you can't even wash it or wear it again or anything like that. You'D have to buy new, so I'm just coming to pass along a little bit of wisdom to you guys on on hair and learn from my mistakes so that you guys get some good quality stuff. I will never bring you guys anything that I don't feel is good quality. I always check out the hair. What it looks like how it feels I wouldn't recommend something to you guys if I don't like it or if I would personally work myself, I wouldn't do it for money. I wouldn't do it to spoil my integrity, it just wouldn't happen. There was a lot of controversy when I brought out this hair Vivi wig right and I said that $ 400 was affordable, but what you guys have to understand is that $ 400 for good quality hair is pretty damn good like this has been cut. It'S been colored, it's been styled. The bleach of the knots has been done, the pot the partings have been done and plucked pre plus, for you guys it already had its baby hairs done. I have to do nothing to this week. It is not glued down, see that it's not glued down. I literally just pop it on and go. If you want that kind of styling, you want it to look realistic, then you have to pay for it. Oh, and also this is a celebrity hairstylist wig, which is why it costs three hundred and ninety nine dollars and ninety nine cents. For me personally, four hundred dollars on hair is affordable. I spend more than that on shoes, so that's the budget that I'm working, but I understand that that is not everybody's budget. Wigs can range anywhere from a hundred if it's on sale to thousands literally thousands of dollars: okay, okay, so that's just my little two cents on the mat. I'M moving on to second thing: how to pick your wigs! It depends on what you want. What kind of stuff you guys can watch a lot of YouTube, tutorials mine? There are loads of different youtubers out there as well, who do lots of different tutorials on wigs and weaves and how to choose them. I personally don't like my wigs to be super thick and full because I don't think that's realistic. Nobody has hair that is five. Six bundles big big hair, thick hair, full looking hair comes from adding volume to your hair. So the way you style it, the blow-drying method that you use this is about 150 % density, as you can see the more that I pull it up the more volume that it's already getting and I'm not styling, I'm just showing you that how how you can Get volume in hair right, so if you were to style this properly blow-dry it up, then it will get big and poofy. This hair is the one from Hera Vivi that I showed you guys before and another issue that you guys had with. This was the wig cap and they're, not giving credit to a youtuber who you guys said, has perfected the face scalp method or invented the fake Scout. Nothing, I have to admit, I didn't know about this youtuber I didn't know about her purse tiling or whatever my responsibility to you guys and to the brand, is to be a liaison between you and the brand and to let you guys know everything that the brand Has told me and to be completely honest with you guys, while I was very honest with you guys and told you guys that the company said that they were making a pattern, which is what they told me, I can only give you information that is relate to Me right - and I give you guys all the information that have so you can make a decision for yourselves and you then give me feedback, which is great, because then that means that the company gets the feedback and they can then respond to you guys, which is What youtubers and influencers are supposed to do? We are liaisons between you and a brand and your opinions and your voices get hurt. So here Vivi has heard you okay, they wanted me to introduce you guys to a whole new wig that they've come out with and they've also made this wig more affordable for you guys, but again, affordability is subjective, but I hope it will be affordable, more affordable For you guys all right, this is how it comes. They also give two clips their card and how to wash their hair, how to love the hair, how to love the girl and a Toni & Guy comb. So this is what the hair looks like it's kind of like a natural, but you can see it's got a little bit of shine to it. Little brown tones then not having bleach. This smells great by the way. The only thing that I would say is that I wish, when they pluck their hair and they're gon na put the fake scalp that they're putting it. I wish they would put it just a little further back I'll show you guys what I mean in a minute. So this is the hairband and it's a branded hairband as well, and it's cool because it has these little grips just like this week. It has these little grips in the back where you can adjust it like a bra strap. You can also remove them as well. So the way that is done is that they put a piece of material on the inside of the wig that is flesh colored, whichever color that you want to choose that suits your skin tone, the most and then they've got lace over the wig okay. This is what it looks like, so it's very secure. Now, I'm gon na pop this on my head. Okay, you guys I've got the wig on. Can I just point out again that I haven't done anything to this hair right. You can tell what the hair's gon na be like by just touching it and playing with it and seeing how it falls and lands. They start the fake scalp really because I would appreciate if there was a little more baby hair to work with, because my hair starts here, but the wig starts there. So I mean it's fine like I can use my own baby hair to make baby hair, but still, if you want it to live flatter here, you can use the week combs. I don't use the week combs of any weight, except for the one in the back, because I haven't anchor braid in the back, but I am NOT going to get traction alopecia anywhere. Oh come on, so I don't use them. Listen! Going back to things that people do not tell you, when you get a wig, there are a few wigs that you can wear straight out of the box very few. If somebody says you don't believe them, okay, they spent time behind the scenes preparing the way they're playing I've gotten the method of putting on a wig in the morning down to 15 minutes. Exactly 15 minutes in the morning is all I need to get ready and put on my wig on go okay, and that's because of the methods that I used to put on my wigs, and I showed you guys, but that's not how it goes. Out-Of-The-Box out-of-the-box, you have to take the time to prepare the baby, hair stock and bleach and dual to make it look realistic. That'S gon na take at least an hour to two or three depending on. If you need to bleach knots or not okay, and can we also just take a moment to appreciate that a wig is a wig okay? It'S not your hair, a lace! Wig is not your real hair. If people get close to you, they're going to see that you have a lace, wig or no matter how many times you bleach the knots, no matter how much concealer you put in the middle, if you have a 4k camera like I do right now or if You have good eyesight. If you get close to someone, you are going to see that it has lace. I mean there are miracles in 2019, but Jesus don't work at the wig Factory baby. This is the only way that I have the only company that I know of so far that I can do that with all the other wigs that I have that I think I'm go. I have to put like a little bit of my hair out in the front to make it look more realistic or it's like a big poofy afro or it's a week that has bangs or something so you don't see forehead. You don't see tracks, you don't see. Anything like this is the only wig I'm just looking in the mirror. Sorry, this is the only one that I've got that stays back. Yes, I'm gon na go hard for hair Vivi. Okay, because I like the company, I like the brand man, the hairs good, it's just thinkin it, it's speaking for itself no like come on. You can't tell me that this airs okay. Alright, I'm done I'm done, I'm done so that was a little bit of what to look for when you're, when you're trying to shop for hair online. If it's too good to be true, the price will tell you, I would always say: go for a brand that has been reviewed by people. You know and trust and go for brands that are responsive like they actually work and listen to what you're saying and bring a response to you. Okay, that's all it is. Thank you guys for watching. I hope you enjoyed the video and I'll see you guys in my next one bye,
