My First Lace Front Hair Topper | Uniwigs | Zoe Cavey

What'S up you guys, so if you've been here for a while, you may recall me making this video and this video, which were the first two had tapas, that I ever tried. You lost a hand being the first one and then the Union Whigs, with the banks being the second one that is I've tried. If you would like to see either of those videos, I will leave them linked down below, but today I will be showing you my newest tapa that I just received from UNIX. They were kind enough to send it over to me so that I could try it out. I really did like the lost one that they sent me. It just had bangs and I wanted one that was more like you know everyday, and also this is a kind that I've never actually seen before. I'Ve never seen anyone install it or anything so gon na be a little new for me, but hopefully we'll figure it out together and if your new year - and you do not know what a hedge hopper is the best way I can think to describe it is Like only the top portion of a wig or a toupee for women, if you will, I don't like calling that, because it is off-putting to people who don't use them, I'm okay with it like, I would call it a toupee. I don't care, that's just the only way I can think to describe it. This is the Clair hair topper from uni wigs. I will have all of the technical information for this one down below and like the link to it and price and everything, but it is real human hair. It feels really really soft. Just like everything from you know, eggs if you've ever bought anything from them. Quality'S. Ten out of ten, it's really soft Remy. How the good thing about this one is that they actually suggested a darker shade for me, as opposed to the last time I picked like Doc, Brown or something, and it was quite light on me um. I think this is more of like a black almost again a legal information down below. I don't quite remember right now, but it'll be down that the good thing about this one is that I did not have to diet. It came in this color. It is pretty spot-on with my natural hair color, but the major difference with this one, as opposed to the lost I have Thapa that I have is that it had a silk cap and I think actually the previous. You know Mike's what I have was a silk cap too. This one is a lace front topple, so I don't know if you can see, but it's like completely lace, and then the underside looks like this. So we've got four of the, like extension, clip sort of the thing that's confusing me with this one is that it is really great that it's laced, because it's it's going to look sort of seamless on your head. The second plot that I'm not so sure about - or rather I haven't, tried to do it yet so, who knows how it's gon na go, I'm just a bit confused at how I'm going to glue this down. I don't usually like putting tapas like saw the dab. My forehead just because my hell, I'm already comes down kind of off and then why don't you have head? That'S this thick like this close to your eyebrows. That'S just like a lot. It doesn't look very natural, so I have to figure out a way to glue this bad boy kind of like back here and make it not look strange. So fingers crossed I'm going to do that on camera right now, so that you guys can see what this looks like. I have like just put it on my head and I've also already cut the lace it did have extra and I just cut it shudder. A little bit, I'm like it, looks really great when I just sit it on my head. It'S just the whole gluing the front down situation that I'm a little unsure about. So I guess I'm just going to go for it. So I know it's kind of like a learning experience for me too, but I'm going to just let you guys know what I'm doing every step of the way so for a lace, front, topper old, wig, you're going to need to glue down the front. So, if you've never worked with anything lace front, whether it be a topper or a wig before you're going to need to glue it down, they don't just like sit tight on your head. It'S gon na, like flap around in the wind everywhere, so to adhere the lace to your skin. People tend to use this product a lot. It is the got to be ultra glued invincible, styling gel they also have ones in a yellow can and you like spray. It on I've never used that one. It seems like it's a whole lot easier than this, but I'm just going to use this because I'm used to it by now also today is a different case, but I don't recommend putting this. On top of your makeup. Like foundation and stuff, and I've made many mistakes before I've tried to use this on top of foundation, and not only does it turn all orange, and we do at this point, stick as well also to be a little more precise with it. You can use q-tips. That'S what I usually like to use, but I don't have any right now, so I'm just going to be using the end of a pair of tweezers just to like sort of precision move this stuff around and then the final thing with this or the spray kind Is that it works the same as eyelash glue in the way that you kind of need to make sure that it's on the tacky outside for anything to stick? If you put lace on it too soon, it's one going to take a very long time to dry. After that and to be almost impossible because you're gon na have to hold it there like for a really long time, if that ever sticks, it's just in my experience, so it's always helpful to have in a hairdryer and you just blow dry it for 30 seconds 15 seconds how thick the amount you've put on, but you usually be able to figure it out just blow dry it and then touch it every now and then and see if, like your skin, is sticking, I hope. Well that made sense. I don't wan na go too in depth with all that, because that's just not what this video is about, but I just wanted to help anybody out who may be doing this along with me, but the first thing that I'm going to do because, as I said, I feel like I'm gon na, have an issue with all of my baby house. Here. Is I'm going to try and like make a perfectly straight line in the front where I know whatever the lace, I'm just going to sort of push it back, and I mean as long as I can see where the line is it's really all that matters? Okay? So now I'm going to get some of my glue and I'm just gon na put it on the end of the tweezers. I didn't want to put it on too big a section of hair, because it's gon na make this whole pot super hot and crunchy. I think that's a decent amount and now well, I am I should I probably don't even need to hold it anymore, but I'm just gon na grab the header, and now that I have my little sticky bit right there, I'm going to move all of my hair Where it should be - and I know this looks dumb, but I'm gon na have hair on top of it, so I don't really care. Okay. Before I put on my head, I'm going to unclip everybody and now I'm just going to hold it down. I haven't even clipped any of the other ones in actually. Maybe I should do that now so now, I'm just going to sit here and hold it for a while. I don't like keeping my flat finger on it feelings I feel like it doesn't dry down properly. The for my fingers making the glue wet I'm just going to hold the bits of head. Don'T worry! This is none of my actual prayer and I'm just going to hold it down like this. I'M sure our instead of holding this, you could probably put like a clip there or like tie it up with something to make it really tight, but I don't think the Blues gon na take that long to dry, though I'm not that concerned. Okay. So sorry, I thought this did a weird jump or if I'm talking really loud, because I just realized this is covering one of my entire ears, but I was having a little issue having it stick, I don't even know what's happening whether the glue is like trying To quickly or I put more glue - and now I don't know if it's dry at all, I use the hairdryer and everything and it's just not working the same as if it would like on my forehead, where I usually do it. So I'm hoping that if I leave this thing around the glue part of it and then maybe I'll just put the hairdryer on top of it, it will dry. So I'm going to do that or god knows how long and then I will be back and let you know if it worked okay. So it's been about 10 minutes of me like moving this thing around and I had the hairdryer on it for a pretty long time, I'm pretty hot at this point, but it's feeling pretty dry, like I actually can feel like when I move around. It feels sort of like crunchy, which I know sounds bad, but usually that's a good sign when you're using this blue stuff. So I'm going to, let me just see if it's gon na move yeah we stuck on to my scalp. I guess the only pot. That'S sort of bumming me out is, I guess, cuz. It was under that thing or I've been moving up a lot that it like moved back. The tab Toa than I would like so it goes from being like super duper, thin to really really really really thick, but I mean I'm happy that at least this thought process worked out like I feel like. This is definitely something that once I've done it two or three times and like it's closer up here, it will definitely look a lot better. I actually think that it doesn't look that bad now. It'S just that. Actually I don't know. What do you guys think is a very obvious, or is it just that I mentioned it, that it's obvious or is it like? Oh my god? No, it has to be way further down. I know that this is quite thick, so there is the option of putting concealer that and make it look like have more scalp. But I kind of don't want to put concealer in there just because I feel like there's no way that that really really looks as natural as I want it to so. I'M thinking in the future, I'm going to like hand pluck this area to be like a lot mmm and then obviously, I'm going to be wearing it a lot more forward to. I know that I have thin hair and this is the solution to that. But I don't want it cat like. I know that sounds bad, but I don't want thick hair. I just want, like regular hat so me, making this hairline like a little more realistic to the way that my hair, actually is. I feel, like would make me feel a lot better. I'M really pleased with this topper. I think that it has so much potential, and I mean I really don't mind how it looks now. I just needs a little bit more tweaking now that I figured out that gluing the front is how to do it. I think that it's gon na be smooth sailing from him, and another thing that I like about this one, as opposed to the ones that have the silk caps is that I feel like I can do more hairstyles in the back, because with the other ones, I Feel like if you pull your hair any sort of way, except for like a regular ponytail or like a lower ponytail, you can see like the bottom of the silk cap, but like I'll turn around with this one, so that you can see what I mean like. If this is a lace, just out of curiosity, I wan na, like put my hair up somewhere right now and see what that looks like so hold on. So this is it just in a lower ponytail, and I really like how it looks actually now that I'm more used to this whole front situation. I feel like it doesn't look that bad. I know that I could really really sit down and nitpick at it for like half an hour. If I wanted to. If I had to rate all three of my top is based on easiness of use, if you're a beginner, I would say that any topper that you get that has bangs is going to be your best bet, and I mean straight bangs just because you have none Of this situation to blend or hide it just kind of covers it up, and it's just really simple: you can throw those on in like two minutes and be out the door. The second easiest, I would say, is the lust, a hedge topic that I have, which was the first video that was easier just because it had a little comb thing at the front, so it was very minimal having to blend anything. It was just putting it sort of in the place, but with doing that, I have to comb my hair. If I do it straight it, I just can't get it to blend the same way. I think that'll work differently, varying on how thin your hair actually is. Mine is very, very thin at the front, so it just takes a little bit more effort with that. One that is still easier than having to walk with glue glue is a whole of the step you have to bring like hair dryers involves like basically, if you're running late, for something don't be trying to glue anything onto your head, because it's exactly the same. Like eyelashes on it's like 50/50, whether it's gon na walk in your favour that day, so for that reason, I'm reading this particular top off a little bit more difficult to work with. That being said, that's the some scale. I don't think that any of them are particularly hard to deal with it's just time experienced and really really wanting to make it work, but that's it for me today.
