Vday Inspired Tutorial | Bleaching, Plucking & Full Detailed Install | Ft. Amanda Hair

Thank you: hey guys, welcome back to another tutorial today we're using Amanda's Hair - oh that was so country anyway, we're using Amanda's Hair, we're using a 28 inch deep wave 13x4, transparent, frontal wig. These are a couple things that came with the wig yeah. So today, I'm just going to show y'all how I bleach and pluck my knots on my lace, I'm giving y'all a full tutorial. You know Valentine's Day is coming up. You want to look good for your man or woman. You know whatever I got an audience of all types anyway, you want to look good for whoever you're going to be with or even for yourself, so I'm gon na show y'all how to do a middle part. Deep wave install today from the top to the bottom. Literally, I'm gon na show you from start to finish so here's my quick blue bleaching powder. I typically use like maybe one scoop, sometimes if I'm feeling spicy I'll use two scoops, but you don't want to waste your um, your product, that box costs about 20 something dollars, so one scoop would do it for just one wig. Then I use 40 volume developer cream um. You can use any brand. Normally I use the Clairol, I think that's the brand but um. Just like I season my food. I mix my bleach, so I do not measure sometimes, but I think I do one-on-one ratio, but I really think I should do like one two one and a half. If you use too much developer, what can happen is your consistency can become runny and you do not want running consistency. You want a thick consistency to only put on your lace so that your knots can be the only things being bleached. You do not want the roots of your wig to be blonde, or else you have to go in and with another step and dye, the hair black or whatever color your wig is so we're just gon na have a thick consistency. You see me pour learn a little bit more developer in because I did not have enough. It was too thick and clumpy. So just watch me mix and we'll be back when we apply it. So, as you can see, these Brands like to shorten their frontals, I'm not sure, what's going on where they don't give us no side parting room anymore. I don't know, what's up with that, but anyway, we're gon na take our bleach and we're gon na spread it. You see how thick it is yeah. We don't want that bleach seeping through our lace at all, so we're gon na spread it around wherever the knots are yeah, I'm pretty messy and you're supposed to wear gloves, but I don't have any. You do not want to get that bleach on your hand and let it sit y'all. It will feel like bugs, are biting at your skin. It'S going to burn your skin, so bad, but um yeah make sure you wear some gloves when you apply this bleach foreign. Thank you E.T for home like Marsh. Thank you. Thank you. Next, we're going to use our Salon care, foil sheets, we're just going to put the foil sheets on the lace after the bleach has been applied. This just I feel like it, speeds the process up and it allows the bleach to. I don't know bleach the hair better. I have no idea, I just do it. I normally don't do it, but I felt, like you know, doing it this time only because some of the wigs I've been receiving recently just do not take bleach like I can bleach the hair for like 20 minutes and the lace like the knots will not bleach. They just won't so this is why I got the foil sheets just to see if I'm the problem or the hair, just not taking the bleach we're gon na. Let this sit for about 15 minutes. You see those black bristles that come from my old brush that I used to put the bleach on don't mind that foreign next we're going to lather up some Shimmer Lights, purple shampoo on our lace. This prevents the brassy color that is left after you bleach your knots or your lace. Whatever you want to call it, you do not want that orange color. It is very noticeable. You do not want to skip this step. Please please, please y'all! For the life of me use purple shampoo, please tone your legs we're going to leave that on for like 15 minutes you can do longer, but once that 15 minutes is up we're gon na rinse out that purple shampoo and we're gon na go in with our Tresemme 24 hour Volume Shampoo. You can use whatever shampoo you like, but this is what I have right now and we're gon na wash our hair anytime. You get a wig bundles, whatever closure fresh out the pack. Please wash your hair, you don't know what products what build up whatever is on that that hair? You do not want that on your head. It probably will break your skin out, but anyway, look how dark that water is foreign. Next we're going to go in with our Tresemme conditioner we're going to condition the hair and let it sit for about 15-20 minutes just so. Those curls can soak up. All of that conditioner and look at the hair after you wash it. Yes, it did not look like that fresh out the pack. Now this is the nitty-gritty y'all. Please excuse my thigh. I did not know it looked like this when I was recording so anyway. This is what is going to take your wig from a zero to a 10 plucking. It look how thick their hairline is. You don't want that hairline. So what we're gon na do first, is take our rat tail comb and part a tiny section in the front. Just like so I'm not really good at describing things or instructing, but if you do, as I say, or as you see, your wig will look so natural, so we're going to take a pair of facial tweezers. I think that's what they're called the ones with the slanted front, we're going to take our tweezers and we're going to pluck the hair downward towards us now everybody doesn't pluck the same. This is how I pluck I felt like this way was the best for me. If you don't like this part - and you know how to pluck your hair just skip to the next part, so I use my thigh because I am currently in a hotel since my kitchen flooded and we are no longer able to live there until they can fix. And remodel our whole kitchen and living room, so I don't have my mannequin head and I don't have all the necessary things. So I'm going to use my thigh it's nothing wrong with using your thigh, make sure you use a towel underneath or it will hurt a little bit um, but I'm fine! You know I've been doing this for a long time pluck downward and you want to pluck moving left to right. So you don't want to pluck stand in one section too long or you're going to create bald spots. My favorite type of hair to pluck is curly hair. I feel like curly hair just plucks so easily and if you are paying attention earlier in my video, you know how I was talking about how a lot of these lace or these knots haven't like recently been able to bleach. Maybe it's me, I don't know, but you can see the knots a little bit, but don't worry once we pluck them and we apply this on our head. You won't even be able to see those sides but anyway, like I said, left to right. So when I plug, I part the hair three times and pluck it three times, I don't like my wig to look over plucked and too far back so I just do it three times now you can do it more times if you want it to look like Your natural hairline, but I don't like it to look too thin too far back so three times, is a good enough amount for me. Thank you, foreign. Thank you for home, like March foreign foreign, thank you, foreign foreign foreign E.T, for home, like Marsh. What'S up foreign, this is about how much hair that I plucks out of my wig do not be alarmed when you pluck a lot. You want that natural hairline look, okay, so we're gon na start off with our bow hold active glue. I always use this glue. I never use anything different and we're gon na do three layers of this glue foreign to spread this glue out. You do not want it to be clumpy, it will affect the way your lace will lay and the way it will look so spread it out evenly across your head and take your time put more of the glue on your cap. If y'all want me to do a bobcat Method, video tutorial or whatever, please comment below, and let me know I feel like there are just so many videos out there. Y'All didn't need me to do one. Thank you once you're done, applying each layer of glue blow dry that glue with a medium to high heat blow dryer until the glue is clear and tacky. Thank you, foreign. Next, we're going to take our lace and bring it forward and place it on the glue. Make sure that you know exactly where you want to place your lace or the hairline, because once you put the glue on it's just going to be extremely hard for you to lift it, and if you do lift it, it's going to become white and you're gon Na have to start the process all over, because it's not going to look right so then we're going to take our comb and use the teeth of the comb to press in the lace foreign. But that's just me. I know how to fix it. You know so don't use your fingers to press in the lace, because eventually your hair is going to stick down to that lace through the glue and it's just gon na make it harder to lift the hair up. It'S just gon na create white spots in your lace. You don't want that, so we're going to use our blow dryer on medium heat and we're going to blow dry it to give it a better melt. Foreign. I also like to go in with my hot comb and melt the lace or push the edges back. I don't know I like to use my hot comb. I feel like it melted on a whole another level. Thank you. Yeah this dress would not let me live anyway. Make sure you use your elastic band to lay down your hair for about maybe like 20 minutes 25 minutes, the longer the better and we're going to part our hair in small sections use some Fantasia Spritz in our hot comb to lay that hair down foreign? Thank you, foreign. Okay. Now we're going to do the same thing on the other side, section small parts spray it with our Fantasia, Spritz and hot comb. It down. You want to repeat the step of sectioning off the hair and hot combing. It also I like to go in with my iron. I feel, like the iron just makes the hair a lot flatter in my opinion, because my hot comb is just not as hot as it used to be foreign section that I was referring to. I really don't know how to describe it, but you part along the back side of your middle part and you spray it and hot comb that hair back. This is kind of repetitive with curly hair. I do the same thing over and over and over just so. I can make sure that the hair lays flat foreign, our hair back, so it doesn't get in the way so that we can cut our lace y'all. I need to get a new elastic band because this one is to go inside your wig Chow anyway. So I cut my lace down the middle because it's too long and I take a Derma planner or a razor when you're cutting make sure you cut in a jagged motion. You do not want a straight line along your lace because it will look unnatural. Also. I couldn't really see my lace because the light was shining in my face, so I do have a little piece on the side. That'S lifting, if you have um run into that problem ever just know that you can take some glue and just place it underneath the lace and blow dry it and just melt it it's better to have not enough glue than too much glue, because that is very Noticeable, thank you also. Another easy way to fix. This issue is use some Spritz, even spray or your gots, to be glue, Sprite and just spray it down and then put your elastic band over it once again and let it melt. I didn't do that because I have another problem to do after this, so yeah foreign, I changed the lighting just to see what it'll look like, but I did melt the lace a little bit more off camera next we're going to take our comb and we're going To carve out, I don't know why I said carve. I feel like the emotion that I do is like a round motion to part or section out the baby hairs. I don't know, but you do it in like a round curved motion, you don't want to do it straight across. It'S just going to look weird, then we're going to take our hot comb and hot comb that baby hair towards the front so that it's sectioned in different parts and doesn't get mixed up with the other hair. Thank you, foreign. I like to use my Spritz and I spray my hair, that I'm going to pack comb backwards or towards the back. It just gives it a better look in my opinion and then we're gon na carve out our sideburns foreign once you repeat that step on the other side, you want to take a pair of your scissors and you want to cut your baby hairs. I cut mine kind of long, I feel like the shorter, you cut them, the less control you have and I don't like short or small baby hairs. So I cut mine long foreign. Then we take our baby bliss pro nano titanium flat irons. I have a one inch that I'm using right now and we curl our baby hairs upward and then we curl our sideburns downward next we're going to take our mousse. I use this kind of mousse because it's not watery like I said before, and it doesn't drip all over the place. Then we're going to take our Edge brush. We'Re going to use the comb at the bottom of the edge brush, put some mousse on it and we're going to mold our baby hairs in a c motion. Thank you, foreign. I like to drag the comb underneath the baby hairs, just a cute. Little look and we're going to use our blow dryer on high heat and we're going to blow dry. Those baby hairs right on up that's going to make them hard and make them stick um! It'S up to you! If you want to take your comb - and you know brush through them a little or comb through them a little bit to get that fluffy, look, I really don't like the fluffy look. Actually I do like it, but I don't. I don't want to do it. I don't know thank you and we're going to repeat this step on all four of our baby hairs. Foreign. Thank you, foreign. By the way, as a disclaimer, I did turn the blow dryer to cool. Before I put it on my head, like that, do not put a hot blow dryer on your head, you will get burned, don't do it. I put it on cool before I did it because it wouldn't lay down correctly, but look at this out girl. Anyway, I got excited next we're going to use some concealer. I like to use the lightest concealer that I have. I think I am using um Kevon D. I forget what shade it is, but yeah and I like to drag it all the way down. I don't know I like it when it come down to your forehead but um. It won't work enough for me, but anyway take our Clips out and we're going to high comb once again, because you can't have a too sleek look like it's never going to be too sleek and we're just gon na hot comb, our hair down and I'm most Likely I'm gon na go in with my iron once again, so yeah, just repeat these steps, so you can have a Flawless install and we'll be back with the next step, E.T for home like Marsh. Thank you. I don't know about y'all, but I love when the front of my lace or my um, wig or whatever, when it comes up like that in the front. I just feel like that's so cute, it's so cute, but anyway, going with their iron again. I keep looking down because I was recording a tick tock while I was recording this video, so I'm looking at myself in the camera on my phone foreign foreign with a spray bottle of water. I didn't put that in a video, but I also used my Sebastian Shaper Plus reshaper. I think that's what it's called and I spray those curls. I really don't like the big look. I like my hair to look like kind of wet but kind of dry. I don't like it when it's too big and I don't like it when it's like all the way dry, but for the sake of this video I felt like it looked better a little bit bigger. So yeah. That'S just me looking at my Tick Tock, but look at that scalp what lace release it looks beautiful if I do say myself, yeah but yeah. This is me this is it. This is the final results. I hope you enjoyed this video. Please don't forget to like comment and subscribe. I hope you enjoy your Valentine's day and I'll see you on my next video bye foreign
