Hi loves welcome back to my channel, so today I have another wig for you guys, and this one is from Lau African. It'S a Brazilian 360 beach wave wig it's in 20 inches the natural black color, which is always around like a 1 or 1b. It'S 150 density and of course it is pre plucked, as you guys can see. I wanted to show you guys what it looked like before. I did anything to it and then I want to do a quick demonstration and show you guys on half of the wig. What it looks like bleached and then what the other half looks like not bleach, because I get this question a lot from you guys, like you guys, want to know if it really makes a difference. So I figured this video would help. So I'm starting off with this blonde bleach powder, I get both of these from Sally's. Actually, this is my favorite one, because it's dust free. So that means like usually when you pour the bleach in it kind of splashes up and like chokes you a little bit, but this one does not do it and I'm only using a tiny a bit, because you don't need that much and of course, I'm only Doing half of the wig this time um, so I'm gon na show you guys the consistency that I like to get it and I like to get mines pretty thick. If you're now subscribed go ahead and click that subscribe button down below, I put out new videos. Every week you guys want a detailed lead to the video I'll go ahead and leave that one down below, but I'm just gon na go ahead and start to apply it on to the wig. First I apply it all over. It doesn't have to be perfect and then I go back over it and I kind of apply a little bit of pressure to it. And this is why I like it to be pretty thick, because I can control how deep the the bleach will sink down into the hair if it's too watery it'll just run all over the hair, and that's when you get over bleach knots effects it for about 15 minutes and I went ahead and washed it, and this is what the hair looks like completely wet with no product, and I ended up letting it air dry as well. I didn't add any other product to the hair and then I'm gon na go ahead and show you guys a close-up of what the knots look like. So clearly, this fight was not believed. You see out of the little black dots around and then this side is bleached and it's nice. It looks more like skin already and it's no skin even under it, but yeah the parting area just looks a little bit more clean and you don't see all of those little black dots. Now, I'm going to take the side that I didn't bleach and show you guys what I usually do. Sometimes I'm when I don't feel like bleaching the knot. I just take the free spray spray a little bit on the hair. I'M only going to do the half that wasn't bleached and then I take my foundation powder and kind of color it from underneath. When you do it from underneath it works a little bit. It doesn't completely camouflage enough. You still need to get it from the top. So I went ahead and applied the wig off-camera ignore that little piece in the front. I needed to cut that, but somehow I cut this wig so weird but yeah. I went ahead and apply my wig off camera. If you guys want to see a detailed video, the last video I posted the other day a couple of days ago, I'll link that down below it's a start to finish, and yet this is what the wig looks like so again decide what the knots showing is That what I only did at the bottom and then the other side is the bleach side. So now what you want to do is you want to take a just say: this is the eye shadow brush and it's damp and I dipped it into the foundation powder and I'm covering the top of the nuts. So, as you can see, the knots are slowly fading away and when it's wet like this, it allows the powder to stick a little better to the lace. And you can see this side. I didn't put any powder on the side that was bleached and then this side I put the powder on so then you want to take a tooth brush and then I'm gon na wet it a little bit, and you just want to dust away the foundation powder That got on the actual hair strands, but you want to try not to touch the lace part, because you don't want to dust the powder off of the nuts. So, honestly, I don't have a preference. They both work perfectly fine to me just depends on my mood and what I feel like doing that day. But if you are not comfortable bleaching, your knots then go ahead and just do the powder. But if you are comfortable bleaching, your nuts, then I say, go ahead and bleach your nuts. Why not so? I know super close-up and looks like it's balding a little bit, but I promise you that it looks so good from a distance. If I'm a regular standing point and like I am zoomed in super close and I am using an HD camera, you guys, but nobody should be this close to you anyway and if they are, is probably your sin forget other and I'm pretty sure that they know You got a wiggling, you hit so yeah so because I let the hair air-dry and I didn't have any product in it. I just went ahead and use my wand curler. I think I used the one inch barrel, listen to me one and then I want curl. My entire head, I left it out with my fingers and this is the final look guys. I hope you guys enjoyed this video. I love you and I'll, see you on my next one.

Mireille Bitangacha: Can you still bleach the knots after you cut the lace ? I got to too excited and cut the lace off and powders are just now cutting it for me. It's a full lace wig
TheAnnieG07: HELP!! I bought a Kendall wig by Henry Margu which is synthetic with a mono top and lace front. The wig is very dark brown and the lace front hairline is covered with black fake looking knots!! I called the store where I bought it (over $400!) and they said they can’t bleach synthetic knots—only human hair knots! Is that true?? (I would just need to bleach the lace front hairline not the top of cap). They were so rude and said “no one has ever complained of knots before except you”. I am so upset to waste that much money and they won’t do a thing to help!!
BonKed123: WOW you are stunning !
