Chocolate Swirl Highlight Frontal Wig Install Ft. Yolissa | Side Part

Hey besties, it's Bruce Ellie welcome back to my Channel. Today, I'm going to be showing you all how I slayed this beautiful wig from your Lisa hair in the packaging. They sent me a lace band, a wig bin, two caps, some lashes and also an edge brush. This wig was 22 inches and it was 180 density. One thing I can say this was a very good lace, even though it was transparent lace. It still was a good, transparent lace, and this was after I bleached it and plugged, and everything that's why those holes are in it. From my wig stand, I cut the clips out because you don't need it in a wig like this, and also it was some chit chat on Tick Tock about the Clips in the back of the wig, those don't go intertwined together, they go, they go in those Pouches right there, so I just wanted to demonstrate that for anybody who was thinking that they go hook together, I push my ages back. We got to be gel and got to be spray, and I just combed them back now. The reason of doing this is so like, if you have any hair like if you have a low hairline or anything like that, all your edges are pushed back. So once you put the glue in the cap on, none of your edges will be getting pulled out. You also blow dry them just to make sure that they stay into place so for the ball cap method, companies have been sending me these invisible, wig caps and, if you're watching this, I love these wig caps. Please send more. They make the broadcast Mythic. So much more easier because it's already invisible, so you don't have to do that. Much work. I use ball, hole, lace, glue for the cap and I want to say that you don't need a whole bunch of layers of this. You only need one or two, and if you don't like using a lot of glue at all, you can really just do one good amount layer, because it's just a cap and you don't need that much glue. You can also use a guy to be spray or a lace spray to hold your cap down. I decided to use, but her leg screw, because I feel like it's more neat now when you are applying the glue onto the cap, do not push the glue up onto your hair. You want to just like Smooth it out into the cap. You don't really want to push it up into your edges and your braids. That is how you get glue in your hair and then some of your edges may come out now. I'Ve seen some people not melt the cap, they just put the cap on. They don't melt into the skin. You could do that if you want to, I personally don't like to do it, because once you do that and then you put the wig on sometimes you can see the band and I don't like how that looks foreign color on the cap. I use the Ruby kisses cream foundation. I also use a little bit of powder foundation from my personal makeup collection and I think it worked it beautiful and then I also went in with some lace tint spray just for the back, because I did not feel like putting makeup all over the cap after You do all of those things you want to grab your blow dryer and blow dry it for a little bit, because you want to make sure that you do not have a stocking cap and that this cap is really dry. Because now you are getting ready to cut it. Shears are one of my products that I will always stay as a must-have. You got ta, have you some shears? They cut so good, like they cut like almost like a razor, and they do very sharp Cuts. So I love shears for that. These are the Annie's. Thank you. I always cut the little flyaways or whatever you want to call it in the front, because it also just helps make the process more neater when you're getting ready to install the wig and lay the glue down all that is in the way it's just a mess. So you want to make sure to cut those out, and I also go in the back and cut my cap. You know just in case I do a lifting up. You still want to see a cornrow pop out, so you want to make sure to tie that up in stuff to tie into the cap. This pot was a little tedious for me because I did not want to make the wrong mistake or cut too much of something, but I was cutting the ears out, as you can see, I cut from the front going into the back, but I kind of like Traced, my ears - and this is sped up - I took my time - I definitely took my time, but I cut front to back I'm going to go. Get me a new YouTube set up soon, because I keep having to get out of the camera to get in the mirror. So it's like you can only see certain things on one side like on this side. You can't really see a lot of what's going on. So just please bear with me huh, but I was loving the wig look at the wig y'all. It was giving out my oh yeah. This is gon na, be cute. We'Re spraying this with some dark brown lace, tinting spray, the stain when we spray it on our cap and we're getting into the install hey. So before I install the wig, I hot comb it back just so that um all the flyaways or any hairs that may have been sticking out or up are pushed back. So when we lay the glue down and we're getting ready to do everything, no hairs are in the way. I also use boho lace glue for the install now. The mistake I made was that the glue was really sloppy, meaning that I still had half the lace That was supposed to be getting cut off on my forehead. So just make sure that you're doing thinner layers than what I did not as thick and when you're smoothing it out. You'Re, not smoothing it all over your forehead. These popsicle sticks, because that's what I call them, but the clean ones not like use, popsicle, sticks or anything these are. You definitely need to empty your collection. They work way neater than like if you were using a back of an eyebrow razor or anything of that sort. I definitely recommend this instead of anything else, and now, when finally applying the lace onto the glue, you want to make sure that you're grabbing the middle of the wig first instead of side by side, because side by side will lead to Ripples. And you want to make sure you have it super flat and you're pressing it down into the skin, and I pushed mines back a little bit because I do not like when wigs are all over. My forehead is spray, even lace, spray on it, but you want to make sure right after you spray the even lace spray on it: you're either blow drying it or putting the wig band on because the liquid and the glue kind of like don't mix unless it's Dry y'all see how I used a lot just I don't know why I was being so so heavy-handed. You only have to use a little bit of lace, spray and just dab it in with your fingers just a little bit on every little side and just dab. It in with your finger, thank you after you blow dry that you're going to make sure you can either regular comb it or comb it, but you have to comb it back, just to make sure you're getting any of that Gunk or those hard built up products. You want to make sure you're just combing that back because now you're getting ready to put the lace band on and you want to make sure when you're putting that band on you're, locking in everything just right. The key to a transparent lace is that lace band. Just because it's a super, thick lace, you want to keep that lace bin on there a little bit longer because you want to make sure it melts. Mines was super tight. Okay, I was my ears was really feeling like they was going to fall off, but you want to make sure that you have that lace band on there a little bit extra more than you would if it was HD lace. I couldn't even take my lace band off properly because it was on so tight. Please don't be like me. Please don't tie your band that tight. Look at that knot that was in there like. I couldn't even get that out. So now we're getting ready to cut the lace. What I will say is I cut into sections at first and then I go across and I go all the sections. So, as you can see what I was talking about before, you can see how a lot of the lace is still glued onto my forehead, so that ended up being a mess that I had to clean up. But it did not mess up the install that bad. But just to make sure when you're applying that glue, it's super neat and the layers aren't as thick foreign ERS are using Big Lace. Pants, I feel like you, could just need a thin lace band that you can cut in half or a laceband that you can fold in half, because when you are applying the lace band onto the lace, you want to make sure that you still have room to Style, the hair and do everything you need to do right now, I'm cleaning up the excess glue with a little bit of alcohol, and then I also go in with a makeup wipes and then my makeup ended up being messed up, but that's okay, because the hair Is the bigger picture right now, so I'm just wiping all that excess glue. That was all across my forehead just so when we start doing the edges and all that other good stuff that the glue does not interfere with the rest of the process. Y'All can see all those little particles, I also end up cutting those, and so since you are using alcohol, you want to make sure you blow dry afterwards, because alcohol eats at glue and you do not want your lace to come out after you do all that Hard work, y'all look at the lace, it was not given, but you know what I'm I say: I'm gon na make this give. So I took a makeup wipe you know, wiped a little bit of extra whatever makeup off, because I just was like. Maybe some of the makeup is like damaging the color of the lace, because the lace shouldn't have been that brown. So this was my first time doing a side part on a frontal yards almost been a year since I started doing my own hair and I've grown so much and I've had so many hair companies reaching out to me. I'M just so happy like this is all just very good, so I mean I'll be watching these videos I'll be telling y'all what I'd be messing up doing because we're all beginners here, at least I know I am, and I'm just getting better and I want to Get better with y'all, so today I said: let's switch it up. Let'S get a girl's side, part action. One thing I have learned about a side part on a frontal wig when you're doing a side part you have to do like a complete C. The alphabet and the hair, because you want to make sure that when you're getting ready to do your edges, that you can swoop the edges right. So in order to do that, you have to curve the parts. So I used a lighter shade of foundation just to get that brown color off of the lace and it really Blended in so good, and it looks so good and then after I did the lighter shade. I went in with like a little bit of that. Ruby kisses cream foundation just a little bit and it came together. Y'All makeup really helps like. If you are looking into install wigs, make sure you add something makeup wise to the collection. Also, another key point is plucking your part. I don't care if it was even a middle part. You have to pluck your part, because once you put the makeup on your part, it'll just look better everything, I'm kind of heavy-handed when I pluck, but that's only because I feel like that's the only time. I really see a difference: hot combing, each section of the hair up into your part is also another key point, because that is how the hair looks extremely flat when you go in and you make parts and you hot comb go in make a part in hot Comb, that is how you get the hair really super flat, especially if the hair is super thick. That is what's going to get your hair super flat. Take my hands: oh okay, so I just start cutting layers in my hair, because I've learned that that is how you get a nice tight curl and not such like the stringy long curls, so layers really help um. I didn't get a lot of good videos of the curling because a lot of times I was messing up and, as I say again, I had to get in the mirror, so I had to get out of the camera, but I'm getting better at my curling. I use barrel curling and the curling irons I use either Connor curly irons one inch and they work pretty good. I really want to go, invest in some t3s because I feel like I'm taking her more serious and I'm getting way better at it. So I'm gon na go, invest into me some expensive, curling, irons, okay, two things because I like loose curls and also because I am impatient - I don't really curl in sections unless I'm doing a client's hair. I kind of just curl all over the place and like pick up little curls here and there, because I like to freak her. I don't like doing it so neat. I feel like that takes longer any section. I see I'm grabbing it and I'm curling it. That'S just how I do it, and basically I like to just circle around the curling iron clamp it a few times to make sure the curl release sets. I count 20 seconds before I let it go, and you want to hold the curl before you. Let it go completely one thing I do that a lot of others might not do. Is I brush my curls out super quick? I don't really let them sit in. I don't clip them together. I like loose curlings, so I don't have a problem with brushing My Curls out as soon as I do them. But if you do like the tight curl, I would recommend curling it and then clipping it and then taking all the clips out once you're done with the install, because that's really going to set the curls in. So this was my first time cutting layers in something and y'all. I got a little razor happy. This is not the only clip you're going to see me keep going back in with these things. I'M calling layers okay, but I had this Vision in my head and I kept feeling like the bang was a messing, the vision up, so I kept going back in cutting and curling cutting and curling. Until I went to the point where I just knew, I couldn't cut no more so bear with me. Y'All bear with me beginner season we getting there and you want to make sure to keep your lace band on when you're curling the hair, or anything like that. Because that's what's really going to help melt the lace into your skin, so curling on this side got a little tricky for me. I almost kept burning my face: y'all um, it just got really hard over here like I was being tested. I really was getting ready to just give up and like straighten the hair, because I didn't know what I was doing. It was getting hard, but I I kept going and I trusted faith and the curls came out super cute. Here'S me again going back in and just just cutting like you now I got a whole another pair of different scissors like this is how I know something do, as I say, not as I do do not overthink yourself into not liking, something I don't know what Was going on it's still, the hairstyle still came out cute, but y'all I swear. I probably would have cut that whole little thing off. If I could and since I thought I was done curling, I did take the lace band off and look how it's giving y'all. I did my big one on the lace look at it like when I turned to the side. I just got to catch a little glimpse of it. So if you've been watching my latest videos, you know the edges are the hardest part for me and if you haven't watched, my latest videos go back and watch them and see me struggle. But the edges have always been the hardest part for me, but I'm getting so much better. I'Ve been watching other people on YouTube shout out to all the people. I'Ve been watching and I've been learning new techniques for the edges, and so today, I'll be trying a technique where I'm using a little bit of got to be in a little bit of foam, and I will say so far. This is one of the best. A minute ago I was using Spritz and different things like that, but I will say a little bit of got to be gel and a little bit of foam and the blow dryer goes a long way and you're, just playing with it make sure your Edge brush Is clean, it helps better when it's clean and you're just kind of playing with it until you get the edges to how you like them. I couldn't get a really angle of both of my side edges because, as again I say the mirror and the lighting and everything it just was too much, but I did do my side edges. I had one edges like on each side by the ear. One side came out really cute: I'm gon na try to do another, video where I give y'all detail, curling, detail, edges and everything like that. Once I get my new setup foreign now putting makeup on the part really helps it to stand out. So in the middle of doing the edges, I'm like oh, I need the makeup because maybe that'll help me like know what to do or Draw the edges more and I will say it definitely help. I use the LA girl concealer. I forgot what shade it was though, but it really helped. Okay. Another thing I forgot to mention is: when you do curl your hair, you want to make sure you're putting heat protect on it, because heat protectant just helps it, and sometimes you can flat iron before you curl. I flat iron before I curl because I just feel like it helps it better like not to be as nappy and as tangling when I'm curling the hair. So after I got done with my edges, I just went back in and I retouched some of the curls up, and this was the side of the edges. I really didn't care for, but since it was the only Edge I could show y'all. I decided to go ahead and show you anyway, but the other side looked way better. So one day, I'm just going to do a video for y'all dedicate it to edges only the end result of the hair came out so nice. I love this wig, so much as y'all can see. I was super geeked and I was feeling myself. The texture was so soft. This hair did not tangle or nap up or anything. I definitely recommend this color. If you're trying to go for like a new highlight color, this is the color to do. Okay, I would dye my natural hair, this color. This wig was everything and more new uploads coming soon, so make sure you subscribe like and comment and share. Thank you all. So much for watching bye, love, you Besties, you want it. Let'S go!
