Hey guys so today, I'm gon na be showing you all how I customized this wig that I got from my first wig now. This is a sister line to the RPG show wigs, and these are basically quality waste for beginners. If you look on the website, basically they have a lineup of different wigs with less specs that you can find like an RPG show wig like when they have like density and all different stuff like that. Basically, this site and these wigs are a little more simplified for people who are new to wearing wigs and who don't have you know a lot of knowledge about wigs. So it's pretty cool, and this is what the box looks like and then on the back. It has the it has the website, and then it has the customer service email and then it has all of their social media here, and I will put that down in the description box for a lot. I will put this in the description box below for those who are interested and purchasing away from them. So I did choose the wig from their website and this is their barber wig, which is there 100 % Malaysian hair sexy ombre, wavy, lace, wig and the code is m. Wf 0:03. I will have it probably in a title, because it's too much to probably just remember for me saying it: the hair color is a number two in a number 9 9j. You guys are going to see it. When i take the wig out, the length is 20 inches. The texture is silky non yaki. The lace colors light brown capsizes number one in the cap. Construction is a glueless lace. Cap and the wig comes in this pouch right here, which says my first via quality way for beginners. It has a little zipper. I think this is very cute very efficient, because when I probably want to store the wig back, I can put it in here safe and sound. So I like that and then it also comes with instructions on how to take care of the wig. It also came with a wig stand. I don't know where I put the wig stand at that's kind of relevant for right now, because I'm about to put the wig on my head, but it does come with a wig stand in case. You want to set the wig up somewhere else instead of store and get back away inside the pouch, and it also came with another pouch, which also has my first leg. This is very cute. I love how the packaging came and inside of this package you have a my first wig, a rat tail comb um. You have a set of five pins while they bring everything my first wig, so it's a set of bobby pins. You also have a deluxe wig cap set, which is two pieces which are these wig caps. I love these so yeah and then it comes with these two duckbill clips, so they pretty much set you off very nicely with the tools essential needed to get started on preparing your lace wig for customization, because that's what I'm gon na have to do because, as You all know when you wear your wigs, of course, when you see people on YouTube, of course, they don't wear their hair or their wigs straight out of the box. There'S a lot of customization. It has to go into making these wigs look a lot more natural. So I'm gon na jump straight into it, so I'm zip, pouch I'll, show you guys the week the week has a net on it at the moment. So so this is the wick and as you see it is ombre. It'S like a dark red ombre with a brown color at the top, and this is how it's constructed is a floral lace, a glueless lace cap, and it has three combs two on the side and then one kind of that goes at the top of the head And you have the adjustable straps in the back, so I'm gon na just plop this on my head to see exactly how it looks off the off top. I'M gon na put one of the wig caps on its way over because I don't know. I just feel. Like if it's a little more secure when I put away at Capital One a post, just putting the wig directly on my braids now I doing my hair braid it under all of my wigs. I just can't get into the hole pulling my hair back into a bun or ponytail put a wig on, because just never stay secure for me. So so this is the wig shred on my head. I haven't done anything to it. The lace is still on the wick itself: I'm trying to adjust a comb just so I can get a better look so yeah the inches 20 inches and it's very fluffy and it's soft. But I notice a problem already is with this wig cap, because I can definitely see where the wig cap is. You know under the wig, so I'm probably gon na - have to take the wig cap off in order to have a more natural-looking result in the end, and then another thing I'm noticing at the moment is how the hair I mean the the lace is like not That secure in the front, so when I cut the lace off, I feel like it's not gon na be as snug to my head. It'S like some, my other wigs, are so um, not sure necessarily how I'm gon na fix this problem. But I will be working on that because I do like the color I like how it looks and I like how it was curled, so I'm probably not gon na do too much manipulation. I do have my flat iron ready to go because I know I'm gon na have to touch up some of these curls and I know for sure I'm gon na have to pluck a parting, because this is not getting it at all and it's actually not on A party where I want it to be, I feel like this is a off-center part for the wig, but my actual party for my braids in the middle, so I'm gon na, have to do some shifting and I'm gon na have to basically do some some Lex Magic to get it, how I wanted to look so initially. What I'm gon na have to do is I'm gon na have to pull this hair back and secure it with a duckbill clip, I'm the one that they gave me and I'm gon na pull all my lashes get stuck Wow. Okay! Well, since I've pulled this out the way I am going to cut the lace off of this wig because I don't need it you're gon na want to be very careful. You don't want to cut the actual hair of the lace, but you want to get as close to the natural hairline of the wig as you can okay, so, as you can see, I cut it off and I'm left with this flap. Basically, so I can't say I'm necessarily the happiest with how this looks, because this is definitely a excess of the cap that isn't basically gon na fit on my head. So and I'm not about to glue this on my head, cuz, I'm gon na look ridiculous. So I'm gon na pull this back and what I'm gon na do is try to line this up. First of all, let me take this wig cap off, because this is not the business at the moment and see. This is what's bothering me right here. This extra thing right here, but I mean it's not gon na be shown, but I just don't like externus when my wigs are like extra big. My head is already big. I just don't think I need anything else to you know add to it so, okay guys. So this is the up-close view of how the way looks it's behind my hairline ever so slightly. I am going to get the rat tail comb, so I can show you guys exactly how far I have it behind my hairline and in case you guys want to do the same thing as well. I feel like putting this behind. Your hairline gives a much more natural look opposed to having it directly on your scalp okay. So now I've gotten apart to look a lot more natural, because this is laying behind my hairline and the lace matches my scalp pretty nicely. But as you can see, the party is very very short and I need to intensify parting because I don't think anybody's natural party is that short. So I want to part it just to get an idea of how far I can get it to go and where I need to tweeze - and I could already tell this week - was definitely not me to go into a larger party. But I will make do with what I have to do, because I can't have my part looking like this. So from this point, I'm just gon na go and tweeze out the party from point A to point B, just to make sure that it looks a lot more natural. So I'm not gon na really talk much while I do it, I'm just gon na. Have you guys lick and it's pretty simple, just tweeze out the areas that don't belong so yeah, so you can be abrasive like me and do the pull out method instead of doing the tweezing method. The too easy method to me was just gon na. Take a little bit more time and this don't feel like tediously tweezing out individual hair, so I just start ripping out the hairs and, as you can see, I did lengthen apart exponentially. Is that a word exponentially? It'S financially. I lived through the part a lot so um. I basically got what I asked for and it matches my natural party very nicely now. What I'm gon na do to ensure that I get the party to lay as flat as possible. I am going to heat up my handy-dandy depressing comb. I don't know if there's a kentucky-made, this is a Sofia old-ass personal call. Basically, this has been in my household and my great-grandma's household for a long long long long time, so I'm gon na heat this up and I'm going to press down the parting to ensure that it's gon na lay SuperDuper flat, because I don't like when my closure Or my lace, wigs are puffy because you can tell they're fake. So of course they are fake. Of course it's not my hair, but are you supposed to know that? No, so we're gon na change that right now, so I've successfully gotten my part to lay down super flat. Oh my tweezed! It will pull out a lot of hair to make sure I'm went through the part. So now last thing left to do is to fix these curls I've already heated up my Fahrenheit Flatiron. I am going to use some heat protection, which is gon na, be my Fantasia frizz Buster. Only gon na use a little bit cuz. I don't want to weigh down here a lot, so I'm gon na use about this much, focusing mainly on the ends of the hair, the flat iron, so I'm just gon na take a piece. I do not mind that part. But, oh you guys don't really like how how that extra flap is just flapping around. Take this. So just repeat those steps throughout the whole entire, pretty simple to me: if the light one Flatiron, we use a flat iron to curl your hair
