Customizing & Installing Glueless Closure Wig Tutorial

Welcome back to my channel guys so today we'll be installing a 5x5 closure, wig italian curl. So right now, i'm just showing you guys that i bleached the knots i haven't plucked it. Yet this video, i will be demonstrating plucking a little bit. I didn't go in too depth into it, but i'll just show you guys how i customized this wig. So the knots already bleached like i said previously, so the hair is slightly wet, but it's not completely wet. I made sure i dried a little bit. I don't like to pluck my hair wet so right now, i'm just using a hot comb to push back the hair and kind of have it slip back. So i have a better view before i start plugging, so i pluck from back to front so right now. I'M just separating the hair parting out the front part of it, so this hair did come pre-plucked, but i personally, like my hair lines, to be a little more plug, so it looks more natural, so i'm going in and i'm parting it section it off. So i can start plucking, okay, guys so you're not going to be using the pointy side of the tweezer, because that can make holes in your laces. So you're going to use the other side, the smooth side and when you're plucking you're not going to put directly where you part. If you can see i'm plucking behind, where i parted behind the hairline that you just made. Because you don't want it to make holes in there or have patches in there and plucking is so tedious. It takes a long time to do, but luckily i was doing a closure. Enclosures are usually fast and easy to plug. So one rule of thumb - i can say that prevents you from over plucking - is to keep moving, never stay in one spot and pluck too long keep moving across where you're plucking, so that it's getting an even look on. You know both ends of it. Okay, so right now, i'm just using a hot comb to push by the hair that i just plug. This gives me a better view of the hair, so i can see if i need to go back and pluck more or anything. I need to be done. Okay, so i'm going on the next side doing the same thing using a hot comb to push that hair back and make it slick. So i can see it well when i'm plucking it and have a good view, but does she really okay? So both sides are plugged now now i'm just going back towards the front and going in and plucking it some more because if you remember, we sectioned it from the back to the front, so you're going to section off going towards the front and pluck from the Front to the back now so i'm just going in the front and plucking and making sure that i can fully see my hairline to make sure that i'm not taking off too much, and that i can, you know, have a better view and see how everything will Look all together: okay, so guys once plucking is done, you're going to go in and section off your hair in the parts and use the wax stick to press it down and then use the hot comb to melt it together. This is so that you got a flat part in the middle. I, like my middle parts, to be flat. It doesn't matter if it's curly or straight here, so i go in with a white stick and i use it to mold it down more. This is optional. Some people, i know like they're curly hair to kind of look natural and have like a hump in it, but i like my hair to be flat, so i go in and i use the hot comb and wax steak. Okay guys. So i went - and i did it on both sides and i'm just using my hot comb - to straighten out both parts to get as flat as possible, and i already did a middle part in the middle guys. But when i put it on my head, i'm going to still you know, realign the middle to make sure that it's actual middle because on a mannequin headed a little different from when it's on my island. But that's really it for the customizing part closure. Wigs usually easy to customize and here's the finishing look, it's plucked and you know laid back and ready to get put on. Okay guys. So since this is a glueless look, i do not need to glue down my cap, you can, if you want to you, can glue it on your cap, but i plan on taking it off, so i didn't glue it down so right now, i'm just taking my Foundation, color and i'm just spreading on my cap so that it matches my skin color, the closest to my skin color first thing, you're going to do is going on the wig and cut off those side tabs. I personally feel like it makes your wig looks flatter once you cut them off, so i'm going in i'm cutting off them on both sides. Okay guys! So i'm going in with my foundation color the same color that i use on my stocking cap and i'm just putting in my lace so that it matches my skin color. You can use lace tint if you wanted to. I did have lace. 10. I don't know why i didn't use it this time, but either way you can use lace 10 or your foundation color once it matches your skin right. Now, i'm just going to put on the wig and make sure it fits my head. There is straps on the back that you can use to tighten it, and i have a band in this, since this is a closure wig, and i know i wanted to glue this, so i kept the band there, but i'm just fitting it to my head to Make sure that it fits right here, i'm going to go ahead and cut out my edges. Well part it out to make sure that you know i like it. I wanted a baby hair in the middle. You don't have to have a baby hair in the middle. Just make sure you know you customize it good enough so that that lace part isn't showing, but i personally like uh baby hair in the middle. So right now, i'm just parting out my hair and i part it straight across and make sure it's a straight line. Y'All don't mind my face expressions in me laughing the video i was listening to music, but i'm partying now and making sure it's straight across and that my edges are out. So now i'm going to go in and i'm going to use my scissors to cut off the lace part. I pushed back the baby hair that i just cut out so that i'm not cutting my baby here and i can have a good visual on the lace and guys. I would recommend a razor if you're a beginner because it'll keep it jagged. But if you're using the scissor scissors make sure that you know you're keeping a jagged hand like i'm doing right here, you're not going straight across so that it looks like your real hairline, okay guys, so i just cut it off and look at that lace. Yeah! It'S blending what lace? I'M pretty sure! That'S what i was saying in my hand, but i'm gon na do the same thing to the other side, which is you know, keeping my scissors jagged and cutting off, but yeah. Look at that blend and i haven't even added any extra makeup to it yet so that hair was blending good, and this is my hair guys, so i will be putting the link in the bio, not the link about i'll, be tagging, my hair page on instagram. So you guys can follow it because i will be selling here soon, so stay tuned, okay! So right here guys, i am adding makeup to my lace at the top to make sure that it fully blends into my scalp so that you know sometimes you can have a white line at the top. But if you put a little more makeup on the edges, you know make sure it blends perfectly like look now. It looks better than it was a second ago. So you know, you add your makeup on it, so it blends well before i go in and i start to do my edges, i'm going to take my white stick again, i'm going to put on my hair and i'm going to take the hot comb and melt It all down this is going to get the hair out of my way for my baby hair, so that you know it's not getting in the way when i start to do my baby hair and it's also pressing it back and melting it, and it's not going To hurt to do this because i'm putting the middle part anyway, so it's just getting my part even flattering so right here, guys, i'm gon na go with my hot comb and i'm gon na press down my baby hairs. You want to be careful with this because you can burn yourself when you're doing it, but because it was a glue this wig. It was easy for me to kind of lift the lace up off my head and use the hot comb to really get the baby hair to lay down is i'm going in and i'm starting to part out my edges, so a beginner tip guys that really help Is that if you're not sure how long you want to cut your edges, go ahead and basically pre-swoop it to see how you want it and then go in with your razor and cut it little things i okay guys so right now, i'm going in with the Baby flat iron and i'm using it to curl my edges, this would help for beginners to help it be easier to lay your edges, because i know it's just going to be the hardest part for a lot of people. It was for me the flowering does, help it because you're curling your baby hair already. So it's easy to swoop, because this is a glueless install. I didn't want to go in and use any harsh glues like the gossip glue or anything. So i used the gossipy spray because i know it wasn't going to make hold it down too tight that you know my edges would get hard. It would just help it to lay down. So i'm going in guys and i'm sweeping my edges with edges. There'S no perfect way to do it. It'S up to you and how you like your edges and to make it stay. You really just want to keep. You know going back over it and laying it down with your fingers until it's smooth - and it's laid down like this, so i'm using my fingers to guide the hair and to make sure it's staying where i wanted to be so, i'm going on the other side. Doing the same thing, i did on the previous side cutting my edges to a short length. I would prefer you guys to cut it longer and then go back in and cut it again, because if you cut it too short and you messed up, you know you can't grow the hair back. You know make it long again, but if you cut it long enough, you can always fix it and make it shorter to how you, like you guys so here's a tip. So you won't make the mistake. I made you want to make sure that your glueless wig is above your hairline and not far back because i realized when i was doing my hair outside my forehead. Looked big like it looked bigger than usual. But it's because i had the wig sitting back too far, but it was no problem because i already didn't glue it down because it was a glue this wig, so i just you, know, pulled it over and made sure it fit in my head to how i Liked it and make sure that it wasn't too far back or too forward so now you know, i made sure that it fitted me and it looked well back in and i'm fixing my edges. It wasn't really hard to do because i already just did my edges. So the edges were already laid down, i'm just going back over there and basically repositioning them, because i did lift the whole wig up. So i'm going back in and just laying my baby hairs back down. Okay. So now i'm just going in with my white stick and i'm putting it on my hair just so that i can get my part straight and make sure that you know it's in the middle. So i'm going in and i'm aligning. You know the cone with my nose - or you know the middle of my eyebrows - to make sure my part's straight guys. So this part is optional, but i like to go in and add makeup to my part. Just so the part looks a little more cleaner and then i use the black spray to clean it up at the end, and i'm just going to go down my middle part and i'm using a makeup brush. You know something small, that you cannot make a big mess with i'm just going down my part and i'm just dabbing the makeup color on there, and this is my concealer. So it's a little bit brighter than the makeup that i had on the cap. But it's still my skin color, so i'm going in now and i'm using my black spray. So i'm going to put the comb right here to hide the part that was concealed and then spray the black spray around it, so that it's not touching on the concealer. That i put there you want to be careful when you're doing this, because even i struggle sometimes with it, because i don't want to mess up my hair. So you want to spray and make sure that the combs there to hide the part so that you're not messing up the concealer that you put there so guys, i'm and if you do mess up like i did. You can go back in with your concealer and touch up any part. You felt like you messed up on again, i'm going back in with my hot comb and just pressing everything down and making sure everything is nice and holding and it's laid down. So i'm going in my hot comb and make sure with any hairstyle you get curly or straight when you're hot combing. It make sure you don't forget the back part of your hair, where i'm hot combing right there, because people forget it and then it has that hump look to it. If you know what i mean so now, i'm just spraying the hair and getting it wet so that it curls back up, and this hair is my hair from my hair collection, guys. So i'm starting to sew hair and i will be tagging my instagram at the bottom. My hair page instagram, i haven't - have anything posted yet because i'm still in the works, i'm getting everything ready. But this is my hair, so you know you guys will i will have a video coming out soon on. You know starting a hair business and you know ticks and tricks and all that goodness, but stay tuned for my hair y'all. But again, i'm just going in and i'm spraying the hair. This is italian curl, i'm going in i'm spraying it just to get back the curls and you can use your hand and crunch up the bottom parts of it so that the curls come back to life. But yeah baby, you don't know what you do to me between me and you i feel like chemistry. I won't let no one come and take your place guys. So this is the finishing result and i really love this because i'm in the military - and sometimes you know i don't want my lace to be on and sweating off. I don't really like gluing my hair, a lot and i don't want my edges to come out. So this is a easy glueless you know inside she can do and take off when you feel like it, it wasn't hard. It was easy to do. I hope you guys enjoyed the video like and subscribe and follow my hair page and more videos are coming soon.
