Watch Me Bring This Old Curly Wig Back To Life

Hey guys is Sharmell welcome back to my channel today, I'm gon na show you guys how I bring this old wig back to life, so let's jump right into it. So this hair is about two years old. It was purchased in January of 2016 and if you've been following me for a while, you know all about my favorite pink Brazilian kinky, curly hair, I'm not sure if the vendor even still sells hair. But if they do I'm going to try to research it and I'll link the information down below, but I wore it off and on as a you part for about a year I had color did have some blonde highlights in it. So now I just want to kind of redo it and I did borrow some tracks from it. So what I'm doing here is going in and just filling in those gaps, so it won't look Spacey once I put it on my head, so I'm just going to sell a few tracks in between there from some old curly hair that I had or old, curly Bundle I had laying around because it's winter still, I didn't want to wear the blonde. I wanted to deepen the color a little bit, but I didn't want to go black, so I'm going to use the celerio techniques. True coat the chroma, true colors and I'm using the color sangria and I'm going to mix it with 40 volume developer and then I'm just going to apply that all over the head. I didn't do any like special techniques when applying it. I started on one side and just worked my way around to the other side, making sure that every strand is completely saturated and I did bring it up pretty high if you're using this box for the first time, if you're coloring just straight dark hair, it doesn't Get the hair to to red, however, since I had these highlights in it, it was you know the red applied very nicely so yeah, that's what I'm doing here. Just applying that box called that box color all over the hair, and so this is how it looks once it's all been applied. I let the color sit in there for maybe about 45 minutes to an hour. Then I rinsed it out deep, conditioned the hair overnight and then let it air dry and, as you can see like it, still has all of its curls all of its ringlets. It still looks really soft and everything with just putting the color on, and this is the hair after it's been completely dry, I did let it sit. I didn't install it right away, so it's been sitting for like a week, so it is a little frizzy, but we're gon na make it work. So this is my braid pattern. This is au part, as I mentioned in the beginning, so I do have some hair sectioned off or leave out, but now I'm just going to sew this around the perimeter of my or you know so along my anchor braid and the shape was a little off, But here it is sewn down, so next I'm just gon na go in and trim and kind of shape, the hair more. It'S really big, but yeah I'm gon na get it right. So now, like I said, I'm just shaping some of those longer pieces from the new hair that I added in just getting it to my liking. Next, we're gon na move on to blending, and I will say I did struggle with blending. This is the first time that I've blended my completely natural hair with anything, so it was a bit of a struggle but we're gon na work it out, I'm gon na start by spraying my hair with some water. I didn't know if I wanted to do a twist out. I didn't know if I just wanted to try to gel my hair in so I decided to gel it and I'm gon na start using this crow Brule defining cream and just rake that through my hair and then I'm going to take a denim brush and just Kind of brush my little leave out over it yeah like I said this is my first time doing this, so I didn't know how this was going to come out, so I'm just adding more water and trying to get my life together. Now I'm just going in with a softer brush and just kind of brushing my hair over it and just molding it into the curly hair, and then I always always seal with an eco styler gel. So this is what I'm doing here just so that everything stays in place. It came out. Alright, I fiddle with my leave out per bottle. We just trying different methods so yeah. I still haven't found the perfect method on blending my leave out with curly hair, but yeah, it's okay. So then I just tied my hair down just so that it can sit mold into place left that on for maybe 30 minutes, and this is how it looks any of the longer pieces I kind of just twist it within the curly hair. And so that's what I'm doing now, but gelling it came out. It came out. Okay, it was decent and, like I said, I'm not a hundred percent about it, but it works for what for what I needed it to do, and here's how it looks once I've kind of Co washed it and reshaped the hair and everything I love the red. The red is very vibrant and just pretty so yeah. I hope you all enjoyed this quick haired, wig transformation and I'll see you on next video bye,
