Okay, guys, I just got some new hair in the mail I feel like. Whenever I get you hair, I only show you kind of the end result, and so this time I'm sort of vlogging it. So you see the whole journey me customizing it and everything if it looks terrible, it looks terrible. I'M just gon na show you, so this is going to be the hair blog, so I just got it in the mail here we go so I got two and I don't remember getting to what I did get to the Royal me wig. I'Ve gotten it before, and I really liked it actually. It was just the wrong color. So I got this one and we'll see how that one looks so interesting to see where these DHL, which one should be open up. First, okay royal me red, so this one comes in a really long like bag like this. Oh, this is nice. It came with two clips. A wig cap, I'm teasing comb and some tank lashes smells very fruity like very strong fruity smell. The knots are bleached again. Let'S try this on hard. The color is a lot more vibrant than I had expected it to be, but we'll see we'll see so a trick that I do with headbands is I put the headband on first and then I put the rest of the wig on. So like this: well, it's like cigarettes, I'm not gon na lie. The headband is game-changer, it's what's gon na. Have it lay flat? Okay, alright, alright, the lace color match to my skin color isn't terrible, it's a little darker, obviously, but not bad okay. So I finished washing the wig, I'm gon na. Take you through how I blow-dry okay. So I already blow-dried the lace off of the wig stand so that it's just not as weak and it doesn't stretch as easily - and I put it on a wig pet. That was matching my own head size, I'm gon na comb it through first, it's interesting that actually, while it's wet, you can see it here, it kind of tries curly. It goes straight. Curly hair does tend to get a little bit more frizzy. In my opinion, then straight hair, so I guess that's one thing that might happen. Let'S start drying this thing, so I cut this off here. You can kind of see the scraggly and they're not awful if they're just a little bit dry looking. So, while I'm here just gon na trim them, so what I like to do is make sure that they look straight first. I know I should be doing this in different layers, but I don't cuz, I'm lazy we're just looking reasonably good. Then it kind of just starts nipping away. I could go to you know Swan stylist to do this, but it's like I don't want to pay for something. That'S gon na cost the same amount as my wig. So sometimes you just got ta DIY it. I'M gon na have a curled. You can't really tell if it's uneven, but is it even it's 90 to 430, so it can really align those cuticles. You can kind of see here there is actually a hair. That'S all different types of lengths that are in this wig that are sticking out right here. They gave me a good run for like a year. They were like there on my Amazon page they're like less than $ 20. Okay, let's try it on just looking. Okay, all right, so the next step is to cut the lace. So I just do one big incision just to break it up. First, the lace around the ears for this one isn't actually that much help, because my hairline is lower here. So my hair is going to stick out anyway, so I don't actually don't even need to ask me where this goes. I just need a cut, and this it looks like I've seen it get. It cut close to the hairline as possible too, so you can often do that. I do want to keep a little bit of the lace right here, because it does have these beautiful sort of like knots. I'M just gon na cut carefully along this line, ideally of pins, alright, so cut it put this baby back on besides our little poofy. So no, I guess what I have to do is bring out this bad boy and try to tame it down. There'S a lot of work as 99 % of the time, not a tricky situation. If it's super poufy I'll kind of layer it and then Pat it down, but it's not like terribly poufy. It just looks. Weird doesn't look, weird, doesn't look weird, it does look weird. Yes, no, it doesn't look weird, I said because it's still kind of a center part. It'S not really us on our part when I cut the baby hairs in to be somewhat random. While I want this part to lift up, I want the baby hairs to go down so taking this and just coming down the baby here. Okay, we'll see how that looks, I'm gon na get you closer to the light. Looks okay here, especially with the baby hair. Is cut in, but you can definitely see that lace right there, it's better than other wigs that I've seen still good, but I would prefer the legs to be lighter if I was being picky alright. This is the best I'm gon na get it and you've seen it from start to finish out of the box and on my head thanks. So much for watching, don't forget to like it subscribe.

Taura K: Looks really good

Rori K.: I actually think it looks natural with your face, it fits your face I wouldn't know it was a wig

Tu D: Do you recommend getting this type of wig instead of getting the more expensive ones? I need one so bad but my budget is quite limited and is exploring other wig options. Thanks!

Seun Olas: yay new hair !!
