It'S always chaos and confusion over here see hi, ladies and gentlemen, and everybody in between i'm back with somebody else's hair in my favorite hair tools and guess what it is girl. I don't know what it is: i'm still discombobulated because girl, i just fell right into this tree and cracked. My trash can and hit my chin on the credenza, and you know how you get up and you're like embarrassed because you're by yourself i just look like a tumbleweed stuck in that tree. It was embarrassing. I was embarrassed so let's go ahead and get into this video. So today, if you can't tell by the title we're going to talk about all of the products that i used in 2020 2021 that i'm going to bring into 2022. they're 2022 must-haves 2021 favorites. All the way products that i use and y'all know i just be - i throw on wigs all the time i be sitting in my house just with a wheel, nowhere to go nowhere to be just lost with a wig. We gon na be here for a minute because there's a lot of stuff so grab you a beverage, a beverage of your choice right now, i'm having tea. I don't need nobody's wine right now, because i can't even be upright y'all. Take a sip with me. Take a sip of your drink. Let me know what you're drinking down below oh before i get into it um. I know some of y'all are gon na ask, but this wig is from atina hair. I think i've had it for about a year and a half and it did come in a natural black and i actually colored it myself to this beautiful, like gingery color, just using a bleach and a developer that i'll be talking about in this video. So all of these products are products that i continuously used on. My wigs and a couple of them are like brand new products that i just rediscovered. So we got a lot of good stuff here. Let me cover up this lace. Oh, let's go ahead and get started, so i'm going to do this in categories to make it easy. I will leave time stamps or what they call chapters here on youtube, but i'll leave timestamps down below. So you can navigate and figure out what you need. Let'S go ahead and get started. First, we're going to start off with our wig customization must-haves. These are the products that i use to customize the wig. So this is when you pull the wig out of the box and you're just trying to tweak her before you style her. So when we pull this wig out of the box, what's the first thing i do i'm a bleach show's not so there are a couple of products that i use to bleach my knots. So first i start with a bleach. I have a tried and true bleaching powder. This is the bleach i go for. This is the bleach that i look for. This is the l'oreal quick blue powder bleach. I love this because it it's a powder bleach. It'S really creamy. I do not like dry clumpy bleach and sometimes it can get dry and clumpy. I like really really smooth bleach, and this is a powder bleach and i get it in the big container, but you can also get it in a smaller container this one's 19.99. But you could do multiple, wigs and most people if you're, not a wig influencer or something like that. You'Re not gon na be bleaching wigs once a week. You can get it in a smaller package, but this is the powder this lasts for a long time. It'S really really creamy and because it's like a bluish tint, it doesn't make your roots really really brassy. And i love that now some people do like brassy roots because it makes makes it look a little bit more golden up top, which kind of lends itself to like a brownish skin tone. But i don't like that. I don't like that. Brassy look and if you over bleach it it just looks orange. I don't like that. I don't like going that far so i love using this stuff. I think it's great. It'S smooth. It works great, it's tried and true and it's affordable, especially if you get it in a smaller package. Now i just found a new one, like maybe two months ago, a month ago, but i just used this. I think. The day before yesterday, i used the clairol shimmer lights, plex lightener. Now this one, this baby right here is much smaller as compared to this. I get these from my local beauty supply store, but i think you can also get these on amazon. This one is obviously more expensive, but i can tell why it's very very creamy and the way that it bleaches knots it's hard to explain, but it's really effective. I don't know how to describe it. I love this stuff. This is probably going to be my second fave because girl, i bleach a lot of knots and i'm not trying to pay too much money buddies, but i do like it. I do like this product really really creamy, just the bomb, of course, when you're using your powder liner, you have to mix it in with a developer. Now this developer i've been using for years. I don't. I don't deviate from the clairol developer. This is the clairol pure white cream developer love this stuff. I usually use 40 volume for bleaching my knots, but if i'm coloring, hair i'll use a 30 volume developer or lower, depending on how light i want the hair or how much lighter i want to make the hair. So i keep 30 volume developer and 40 volume developer in my wig closet. I'M not playing no games and i only use clairol. They have off-brands, but i noticed that the off-brand developer just don't be doing it, but they don't get what it's supposed to get. Okay. It don't you just don't be doing what it's supposed to do and i like wasting my money on my time. So i stick with the clairol. It'S tried and true $ 3.99 for my local beauty. Supply store not sure how much it is on amazon, but you can get it on amazon as well. I think these two work together because they're both from the same brand clairol when you have them paired together, the technology is made to work together and that's why these two work really really well. But i'm going to stick with clairol and i find that if i use it with that powder developer, it's bomb like it works well together. I talked about this last year, but i feel like it's kind of self-explanatory, but not really, but this is a mixing bowl. I love using oh girl. I need to clean this. I just used it the other day, this powder on it oops. This is a mixing bowl. I'Ve been using the same one for years. You only need to buy one and keep up with it. Girl just don't lose it. I also like to use a plastic spoon. I keep plastic spoons because when i bleach my knots, i mix my powder bleach in my liquid developer in here, and then i apply it onto the lace with a spoon. I leave it open like a soup bowl like a panera bread bowl, and i just spread it around the sides. This thing has made bleaching knot so much easier, it's less likely that the bleach bleeds through and when you're using a creamy product, it's so much easier to spray girls like butter like warm butter. It is if you try it, please. Let me know how much you like it, because i feel like that's the method of the year. Am i ashy? Oh, and this is just like an honorable mention. This is not just it's not a favorite. If you are bleaching your knots or anything or you're, doing um using any chemicals, you get some gloves girl. I'M talking into my mic, get some gloves. I mean, usually i'm trifling. I won't put any gloves on when i'm bleaching my knots and then i remember once the solution gets on my hand that i can get a chemical burn and i've gotten a chemical burn before and it turns your skin white. I don't want that to happen to you now i do like these red by kiss girls. I got these from my local beauty supply store. These are latex, gloves and they're powder. These are made for hair stylists or people that do hair. That'S what it's for, and also it's smartphone touchable. So if i'm in the middle of bleaching knots or something like that - and i need to answer my phone i can - i can still do that using these. I love these. I get them inside small because i have tiny hands. Typically, though my press-on nails they just punch through the end, like they're, really really sharp, so they do be punching through the end girl. I don't. I don't know what to do about that. I mean like i, i'm not gon na stop wearing press-ons. So so, if you are not a person that knows how to bleach knots, you're scared of bleaching, your knots, you don't know what to do with bleaching. Your knots, i think not bleaching, is a super important step to making your wig look realistic. But you ain't got to do that. Sis you don't have to because guess what they got another product out there perfect line swiss lace, grid lace, wig grids, filler and not eraser. Y'All have seen me use this before it is bomb. I bought this um off of instagram um and it's a black owned brand, so shout out to her. It'S basically like a wax like a wax product that you place onto your lace grids, and it covers up those little tiny, little knots where your your hair is tied to the lace, and it also creates like this skin, like sort of finish great product. So if you're, not a person that bleaches knots, they got a solution out there for you girl, and sometimes i use it if i don't feel like going through bleaching the knots washing the hair, blah blah blah blah. This is a really good alternative. You can get it off amazon, but i bought mine from instagram and i'm so happy. I have it it's like a clutch product, so i'm in the color mich the shades look darker in the tube, but we'll apply one to two shades, lighter. So get you some. If you're a person that doesn't like to bleach your knots or you don't know how to or you know, you're gon na be a person in a rush. So after i bleach my knots, of course, you have to wash your wigs. I love using the smooth and sleek line from pantene pro v. My husband actually uses this on his hair and i started using it on my wigs stealing his stuff. You know how we do well hand. I find that it makes my wigs really smooth. It does a great job with my curly wigs. It does a great job with my straight wigs, it's affordable and i usually get the really really big pump bottles like this, but i keep these on a lot just for my wigs, it's affordable. It feels good. It looks good and you're not spending too much money after we talked about wig washing, let's go ahead and talk about wig drying. So there's a couple ways to dry your wig, so you can dry them like manually dry them with like a wig, dryer or hair dryer, or you can hang dry. I used to be a hate and dry girl, but i'm more of a wig dryer like a wig hair, dryer person and i'll show you that device in a second. But if you're a hang dryer like most people, are these wig hangers? Yes, ma'am they come in clutch. So this is what it looks like it's a wig hanger that i got off amazon. I think they came in a set of two or three can't remember, but i'll leave a link for them down below, but this is what the wig hanger looks like, but i hang it on the shower rod and i put the wig on and i just put A towel underneath, so it doesn't get all over my floor and stuff. This is made like a head, so you it dries the way you want to wear it. I have an example right here, see that's how it sits and it dries. It also allows for ventilation, because it's on this little cap thing so the air can get through and it can dry effectively. I love this, i'm so happy that i purchased them now. If i'm in a rush, i have another product, but for my last minute, procrastinating, girlies like me that have anxiety and have problems planning. I have this product. She looks a little creepy. Y'All have seen her. If you watch my videos, you've seen her in the background. If you've seen her in the vlogs you've seen him this thing right here this thing right here this is a wig drying head. As you can see, she's got a big old mouth and she has all these holes in her head and basically you place your wig on top and take a blow dryer i'll talk about this blow dryer later, but you take a blow dryer, you stick it in The hole and then you turn it on cool, don't blow dry on hot, because you'll melt this wig head, but you'll turn it on. I turn it on high and cool and my wig dries depending on the length in about an hour and a half versus like eight or nine hours overnight. It depends on the density, the type of hair, all that type of stuff, but usually on average. It'S about an hour and a half to two hours and it's just using cool air. This is an old ikea lamp stand. I place it on the old ikea lamp stand and i just sit the wig on top blow dry and she's done she's done so. This thing also comes with these clips and like another little contraption, but this clips your wig down onto the wig head. So it doesn't just slide off, so you can. It comes with this, so you don't have to worry about your wig, slipping and sliding around you just clip your wig on like this, and then you tighten the little band underneath and that's it. It stays on. It dries and you don't have nothing to worry about. I love love, love, love that thing so i'll leave a link for it down below. That is an amazon product. I don't know where else you can purchase it, but i got mine from amazon. This is a lot of necklaces, it's giving mr t what's going on. This is chaos, chaos and confusion after our wig is dry after our wig is dry. Y'All know we like to customize. So this is the eyebrow kit, but these are all the products this didn't come in there, but these are all the products that you get in your eyebrow kit. You get like this little spoolie brow, brush situation, some scissors, a razor and you also get tweezers. I found that whatever you use on your eyebrows, you can use on customizing your lace, you see, so you can use the tweezers to pluck it. This little spoolie, slash angle brush. You can use the angle brush for getting into that part with the concealer. You can use this for baby hairs. If you don't have a baby hair brush. You can use the scissors for cutting your lace and you can use the razor for cutting your lace as well, but i find that eyebrow kit is almost exactly like a wig customization kit. It'S the same thing, two sizes, the same coin. It'S like a wig love. It so after i customize and plug my lace, i have to tint my lace. I don't know what these wig companies be doing, but a lot of them, like the lace, is like the color of this, like what what i'm gon na do with that, what you think i'm gon na do with that, it's giving halo it's giving glory! Okay! If you don't know, i have been on the hunt for a lace, tint spray making the stallions hairstylist came out with a lace tint. I literally ran okay, like it was like thanksgiving day, sale. Okay, so i got two of his lace. Tint sprays - and these are called the flawless illusion by calendar lace, tint spray. I have the medium brown and the dark brown both of them and they are fantastic. Now this one um the medium brown's, the one i use all the time when i tell you it has my skin tone on lock. It has my skin tone on a lot. The only thing i notice about these laces is that it's messy when you spray it. It'S messy, it goes all over the place like it gets under my press-on nails. It gets on the girl, it's everywhere y'all. Let me know if y'all have other ones that are really really good, but i definitely love these. One thing i will say is apply this after you apply mousse to your hairline if you're using any sort of mousse or anything because the lace tint it's not waterproof like it, it still kind of bleeds. If you put water on it but after it sets and it's on your head, it stays so. But i love this lace: tint spray. Let'S go ahead and move to wig heads so y'all know i had um my wig hair for a long long time and then one of my home girls, like i posted a wig on my old wig head, which i still have one of my homegirls hit me Up and say not that wig head girl get a new wig head and i say you're right, you're right. This wig head came from amazon and i searched high and low for like a like a brownish one. I wanted like something that's closer to like a brownish skin tone. I mean - and i like ones that don't look like they're gon na get super dirty because the lighter ones they get dirty and they look real icky to me. I just got real bougie real fast. I did think i like the color of this one better, and i mean it's a solid wicket, the construction of it isn't any different, but it's just a color. I love the color of it. I also purchased some t-pins. Now i used to use like the sewing. T-Pins but they're much smaller and they don't hold as well. So i ordered these t-pins off of amazon, so i'll leave a link for them down below, but get you some t-pins. Oh you don't know what t-pins are. T-Pins are basically the little pins that you stick into your styrofoam wig head to keep your wig from moving. Oh, i need to quit. Drooling! Oh! If you get a wig head, you need t-pins or something to keep your wig from slipping and sliding around your wig kit. Okay, so i have my wig head and i also have i'm gon na have to. I also have this wig stand, so my wig head goes on top of this wig stand, but the wig stand came with this little like this little art tool thing. It looks like an art tool thing, but it's a wig stand, that's adjustable and you also can move the wig head around on here, but you also can put all of your wig tools in there. So usually my blow dryer will go here. I have my scissors. Tweezers i took everything out because i'm talking about it right now, all of my tools can go in one place. So if i'm styling a wig, i don't have to be like where's. My even though i do that anyway, because i'm chaotic everything is all in one place, we love that for us. Isn'T that fantastic? Let me put my wig head on top, so y'all can see what the whole system look like. It'S always chaos and confusion over here see. Oh look at that. I was so happy when i got this and i keep the girlie right here. Let'S go ahead and move over into our wig application product. So after we customize our wig right, raise your hand if you lazy. Like me, i keep a wig grip on hand. The girls know the wig grip. This is my best friend. If i marry my weed, this will be the maid of honor like this. Is the support y'all know i have been rocking with the gex worldwide wig grip band forever. It basically was the start of my channel girl. This wiggler brain is super affordable. I got it off at amazon and actually amber nevaeh amber nevaeh used to wear wig grip. She mentioned it a long time ago. I forgot her name now. It'S amber something she mentioned this and i have been obsessed now. The gex worldwide wig rip band is the best wig grip band on the market, and i love how long the velcro strip is at the back because it fits to the size of your head, love, it love, it love it. The only thing is, i wish they had more colors, so this is what i use as my base. I don't do the bald cap method. I just use my wig grip band. I pulled the ball cap over it or the wig cap over it and basically it keeps the wig cap on without it slipping and sliding, and if you have flat back of the head syndrome like me, i need something to keep my wig cap on. I just can't put a wig cap on and expect it to stay so once i do this combination, it feels secure, but it's not stuck to my head using the ball cap method. You can do the ball cap method. God bless you girl, i'm so happy for you that ain't. My reality, they ain't my truth. So this two, these two, this combo is tried and true forever. I will be using it until somebody else comes up with something better and that somebody else gon na have to be me. One of my favorite products, if i'm just using a spray, is the wig dealer melting spray. Oh, we love her black owned brand love. This wig dealer melting spray. It comes in a travel size, so you can use this for traveling, but basically it's just a spray. You spray it on put it on your head. Boom bow apply the wig, it looks good, it sticks well, it stays forever not forever, but it'll stay for like 24 to 48 hours, and it's not like hard to apply or hard to use, love this stuff and good for travel. I'M so happy that she came out with a travel size, because a lot of times you got to go buy, got to be glued spray or whatever in the location that you're from. Instead, you can just bring it in a travel size and it's and it's perfect now, if i'm doing like an actual like wig application at home. I just found this combo and i'm i'm in love. I just used it last week for these three, these three baby. Now i bought these a long time ago, especially this i've had this for over a year. Look how much i've used. I'Ve had this for over a year. I'Ve used a lot of this and i bought this a few months ago, but i used to just use my spray. So first, let's start off with the spray. The ors olive oil super whole wig grip spray. If i use this alone, it does a great job. It works just like got to be. It works similar to my wig dealer spray. I love it. It'S really really good, but i just found out - and i just did this today - you combine this olive oil fix it grip gel ultra hold. I place this on my forehead. First, let that dry, let it get tacky apply the wig and then i spray the wig grip spray over top onto the lace, so it melts the lace so much better. It is just it stays. It doesn't feel like it's really secure, but it doesn't feel like like cakey or anything it feels like secure. I love this combination, like i'm obsessed with these two together and the wig only lifted. When i wash my face like i try to get close to my lace, because i'm not trying to break out, but when the wig will start lifting or the lace will start lifting in the front, this is what i use bam. Okay, they also have another product. This is the ors olive oil fix it liquifix spritz gel, i'm not even sure this is still on the market, because i bought this a long time ago to try out, but once the wig starts, to lift a little bit instead of using this i'll use. This and the reason why i love this is because it's not as runny and it is a spritz gel. So it's a perfect combination between a gel and a spray, and what i do is you take this off and then i literally will go onto my lace and wherever it's lifting, i just squeeze it and a little bit comes out. I rub it in it. Reapplies it no problem, it gets a little bit runny, but once you rub it in and it dries it melts it right back into the skin. It can get shiny and if you touch it too early it'll get crusty, but let her sit and melt it girl. I'M in love, i'm so happy that i had this and i was like. Where have i been like, where what was i doing to not be using this? I wish they. I wonder if they have these in the travel size, because if they did, these would go on vacation with me. I don't care it's going on vacation, i'm in love. I had this stuff for a long time. I tried this at first and i was like ugh. What is this, but i was using it wrong. Read the directions girl, you don't know everything read the direction. Next, we're gon na talk about baby hairs. I know the girls like to use mousse on baby hairs, since i am not a like a glue girl, i don't use glue. I use gel using mousse lifts the lace, so i have to use a gel to make the lace more secure. So the gel that i like to use now is we're gon na go back to the ors. I like to use this now, but i also like oh, this thing is dirty, but i like to use the got to be ultra glue, styling gel i like to use this for baby hairs. The reason why i like it is because it keeps the baby hairs in place, but it also keeps the wig secure. So when i use a gel, it helps to it helps with the secureness of the wig. If my legs start to lift a little bit at least i got the baby hairs, the little anchors that just hold the wig in place. I don't know why i did this it's a lot. I love using a gel i'm starting to love this a little bit more than this, but we love. I got to be glued invincible gel, not the one in the yellow, the yellow, okay, it's too much it's just too much. I like the clear one. So, in order to set my wig, of course i love to use, i know a lot of people using that elastic um band thing i like to use these keep them in my drawer, too. Rapid strips y'all have seen these before in your local salons girl. When you get a short haircut, they wrap your hair up, but i love using this on the hairline. Lay it down boom girl, it melts the hairline really really well, and you can toss these out. I love using these. I keep a whole bunch of them in my drawer and they're only like two dollars a pop um, i'm throwing away a whole bunch of stuff, i'm sorry environment, but this is what we're using right now. This is where we are i'm trying to lay down some artificial baby hairs, because this lace is lacing. Okay, i know y'all see it don't talk about me, baby, hair, brushes! Oh i get so many of these baby hair brushes. You can get baby hair brushes from amazon. You can get them from anywhere. I have so many baby hair brushes because of my sponsorships. When i have weak sponsorships, you know they all send gifts most all of them send lashes. So i have a whole bunch of lashes that i cannot wear, but they also send like baby hair, brushes, combs rat tail comb, all types of stuff - and i have a whole bunch of these, but you can also get them off. Amazon they're really inexpensive for like two dollars or get them from your local beauty. Supply store, i'll leave, links for them down below some of them. Have the comb and the little tip for laying down your lace on one side and some of them just have the comb on one end little tip wash your baby hair brushes, because mine are hard as a rock like i could hit somebody in the head right Now and they fall out baby hair brushes are a must for laying down my hairline and also um doing the baby. Hairs must haves. Oh, i just talked about rat tail combs. I have. Is this the carbon one? So this is the black ice carbon rat tail comb. You can get a whole bunch of different types of rat tail comb combs, but the carbon ones are for the chase method, because you know how you're doing the chase method and you're, like you, know, flat ironing. The hair - i have melted my comb so many times, and i like the carbon one because it doesn't melt the comb it's made for the chase method, so get your rat tail comb. You also needed to part your hair, so love this thing i have so many rat tail combs like so many of them because they come as gifts, but this is the one i purchased from my local beauty, supply, store and i'll leave a link for one down Below i don't know if you can get these off amazon, but get you one of these one last thing for wig application, these alligator clips clutch you need it to like move your hair back like clip it back. I had the gold ones for an aesthetic and i had the metal ones because they're necessary, but the gold ones are because they're cute. Sometimes i want to match with what i got on you know with my mr t jewelry. I use these clips because you just need them. You need a clip, so we did all of our wig application tools. Now, let's go ahead and get into hairline, because once you put on the wig it's time to get this hairline together, you know what i'm saying we got to get our hairlines right. Look at that hairline! Look! Oh it's a wee bit shiny! Let'S get! Let'S go before this gets dark because, oh my god, let's get into our hairline, how we flatten our hairline one of the most important steps when making it look like this. Wig is growing out of your scalp and not making it look like you just got electrocuted or you just rolled up out a bit for me. I use a couple products to flatten my hairline. One thing i love to use, especially on my straight hair, is the zeeellee flattening soufflee. This is not from amazon, but you can get some sort of flattening soufflee or mousse or something like that. But this is a moisturized wig, shaper mousse. So basically, i put it on the hairline, let the hair dry and then i flatten it with a hot comb. It redirects the hair backwards and it also flattens it super flat. So it looks like it's growing out of your scalp. You combine that with bleaching the knots and plucking girl. You just got a whole new scalp, okay, you're a whole new girl, it flattens it put this on. While the wig is wet, let the wig dry and then flatten it with hot comb girl baby, it's flat. It looks good, i'm telling you, it looks good, try it out. So i also like to use a wax product. I didn't used to be a wax stick girl. Until you know i was influenced by the other girls. It was using wax sticks. This is the zeeellee hairline master wax stick. I love using this on my curly hair and i also like using it in the part and sometimes up in here on my wig up in here, just to flatten the hair. I love the wax stick because it flattens the hair, but it also allows you to have like movement i'll use the wax stick and i'll use it like in the part or sometimes in the front, and sometimes back here on my straight hair. Let me show you what it looks like: that's what it looks like it's like a big old chapstick put the wax stick on and then i'll follow it up with a hot comb. This is another hairline product, i'll, take the hot comb and i'll bring it in there and then i'll flatten it out girl. Yes, everything. Now this hot comb is the andes, hot comb. I'Ve had this for years. It works. I bought another hot comb and she broke within three days girl she just conked out on me. She was tired. She clocked out. I love this andes hot comb. It does not get super duper hot, but it does the job. It has a temperature dial on here and it has this little stand thing, so it works. Well, i love using it. She never let me down. I'Ve been using it for years so, and i think it was on like 20 bucks from walmart, but you can also get it off amazon as well. They have some like a second edition of this. I think it's black that gets a little bit higher hotter and it has better reviews so i'll probably leave that one down below, but that's not the one i'm using, but this one does everything i needed to do so: let's go ahead and get into curly hair Products i have some honorable mentions for curly hair products. I only use two products for my curly hair. Wigs curly hair products is really easy to get wrapped up in products, and i didn't want to do that. I wanted some tried and true products, and i found it one of my favorite products on hand and i actually need to go to the store like today and pick some up. This is the shea moisture, coconut and hibiscus frizz free curl, mousse baby. For most of my curly wigs, it does a fantastic job. I don't use it on my natural hair, so i wonder if it will work, but for like for the looser curls. This does a really really good job. I love using this stuff. I may if it has like a tighter coil and it needs more of a cream base. I will add some of my cantu moisturizing curl activator cream on top of it for my curly textured. Wigs, this stuff is bomb, it moisturizes, the hair. It adds the water base and it allows the hair to kind of like fluff up. It doesn't weigh it down like really. This stuff is tried and true i love it and when i combine it with this girl, this is the evolve. 572 brush. I'Ve talked about her every single year. I'Ve had this for years, and i think i've been using this since, like 2018 2019 and it's 20 22 girl, this is the same brush. Not a tooth has come out, has a tube come out now the tooth has come out. It works really really. Well it's a wooden brush. I wash it. It still looks clean, like there's some hair in there, because i just used it don't mind that, but still it's an amazing brush and it was only like six or seven dollars. It'S almost like a denman brush without the denman price, because denman the denman girls be giving us denman prices, and i'm trying to give you know, give me a little discount a son. So i like to use the ball 572 brush. I love it, love it. For my curly, wigs really does clump up the hair, and i like using it on my scalp as well like. If i'm in the shower these bristles, you put it on your scalp girl. I just got ta chill down my spine, i'm in love with this combination. Right here this came to curl activating cream. I like it, but i'm a little bit more cautious with cantu, because i think it broke my forehead out in 2020, 20, yeah and 2020.. So i try and be careful with that. I don't know i try and use her sparingly, but it does do a great job on the hair. I just may be allergic to it. So our last and final products are our hair tools. Y'All know i am a hair tool girl because i don't know how to style hair on my own, so i'm always looking for the magic tool. That'S going to make things easier. For me, there are the girlies that can take a barrel like an iron and just curl hair, with a flick of the wrist. Just bow bow my wrists just don't be twirling like this, like the girls be twirling and cr girl, no, no ma'am. I have a few hot tools that i love and some of them are like more investment tools and others are more affordable. I try hit y'all with with the twofer: let's go ahead and start with our blow dryers the blow dryer that i love is my revlon blow dryer. It is a standard blow dryer, but i love her. She was only 15 dollars from the local target. I know y'all like to say targét, i used to work there as target girl, people would say target and i'm like girl. It is not that fancy here, i still get paid eight dollars in a heart. So what are we talking about? Target is for the girls that get paid more than that. First of all target has great hair tools, but this is the revlon blow dryer right here you see her. Yes, it was only $ 15. I think i got it on sale, but you can also get it on amazon. It came with a diffuser. I always thought. Diffusers and stuff were really really expensive, like it was out of my budget, so i never really had a diffuser for curve. For my own curly hair or for curly wigs, but this combination was so affordable and i love it in the blow. Dryer works really really well, it has three settings, it has cool, warm and hot. It also has the super cold in the turbo button, and it also has low and high. That'S all you need for a blow dryer, and i love that it has a diffuser, because i can use it for my curly wigs. I can use it for my wig dryer head. I can use it for drying, my hairline, i can use it for so many things and it was affordable, so shout out to revlon love it. This is the revlon section of the video because i got more revlon stuff. I also have my revlon blow. Dryer y'all have seen her before this is the revlon 1200 watt ionic blow dryer. I love using this for my hairline. This blow. Dryer has different attachments, and i love that so this attachment is perfect for just drying the hairline boom. Take this off. It has two other attachments and i use it. Ooh girl's, hair all over it. Do y'all see that that is a mess and a half. It has two other attachments, and this is for like round brushing and blow drying. I love using that as well. I used it on this wig a while ago, but it does a great job with like round brushing and blow drying hair. So you can add these attachments to it as well and blow dry. I love a girl that can do both, and this is one of those girls. Yes wifey material. I love this thing now, let's go into the more expensive girl, so this is the revlon girly right here. This is the revlon one step. Now i saw the other side of the youtube the blow dryer community. So this is the revlon one step. It'S similar to the last revlon with the other attachments, except this one's better she's, the big kahuna. This is a blow dryer that you can use to straighten your hair or do like that blow dry. Sort of look. I haven't got the flick of the wrist right, but if i want to straighten my wig or like blow dry, some of the waves or something out of my straight wig, i can use this without having to do like brush and blow dry girl. I'M not trying to do that. I spent like $ 60 or $ 70 on it. That was a little bit high for me, but it was worth it. I still use it. I don't use it as much as i used to, because i'm kind of like a child with toys, i will use something and use something and use something find something new and then go use that so i still love it. It is a must-have tool for blow-drying and getting like texture out of some of my, like straighter wavier wigs. If i'm straightening the hair love this for straighteners, i'm going to go from low to high. So i've talked about the straightener year after year, but this straightener is a great straightener. I don't use her as much because i have my more expensive one. That'S my new toy, but i've had this one. For years this remington flat iron, it is bomb. It is super affordable. I got mine from walmart, but you can get it from amazon. I think it's like $ 17 to $ 20 bomb, straightens hair like a dream, and it lasts for a long time it straightens hair. Well, if you're more like on a budget. Looking for a good straightener, this one has a great reviews on amazon and when i look at the reviews and people agree with me, i know i'm not crazy this one i've had for years and years and years. I think the model has changed a little bit. It looks different, but it's about the same like it's the same sort of product, but i love this thing. I'M sorry i had to turn on. The light is a little weird. The lighting is gon na change. Okay, i'm sorry! So this girl was gifted to me for a not exactly a sponsorship, but for like a mention and i'm so happy, i have her. This is a t3 smart iron. I didn't even want to use her because i was like who i think this one's like she, in the hundreds like mid 150s, or something like that. This is a t3 smart iron. I love this smart iron. It has no buttons. It'S a touch screen like it's unnecessary technology, but as far as like what what the necessity is actually straightening hair. This girl is bomb it straightens hair. Like a dream. It'S really really smooth. It doesn't really like damage hair, like you can set this curling iron for hair color, hair density, hair damp all that type of stuff. You can set this curling iron up for your sort of hair type. I love that so i love this white iron. It works really well and she is sturdy, like you can feel the difference. Would i pay for it? No because i don't be using it on my own hair, so no, i wouldn't pay for it, but am i happy? I have it yes, and if you have the quaint to spend like a little bit more money on a flat iron, i would recommend this one t3. You know they're they're the flat iron girlies. I need to turn on this light too. The lighting in here is just work. It'S weird when we are using heat on our hair. Of course, we have to have a heat protector. This is the heat protectant. I use all the time. This is the tresemme keratin smooth heat protectant. It'S like a spray heat protectant. I'Ve had it for years and i still have been using it. It smells really good, really good and it does a great job of protecting my wigs, i mean i love that it smells good. Do i really know how good it is? No, but it's been lasting me forever and it smell good and i feel like it'd, be protecting my wigs y'all tell me what your reviews are on this. I don't be using this on my natural hair, though i don't. This is just a wig product and i love how long it lasted and it smells good. So, let's get into our curlers. These are like the second part of our hot tools, our curlers, i'm gon. Na close these blondes i've been moving around a lot. It might be not your nerves, i've just gotten into like really gotten into curling and rollers and stuff, like that. I'Ve told you all about her before i love this curler. I don't use her as much, but it does a great job with curling hair. This is the conair, i think it's a one and a half inch curler. First of all, she's cute she's rose gold and white. I bought her because she was cute. I mean i don't. I don't want to lie to y'all, but i bought her because she was cute and i got her off amazon. I think it was a super, affordable price and it does a great job with curly. Hair conair does a great job with her hair curling products. The only thing i don't like is that the buttons are right here and i kept pressing it when i'm twisting the curling iron, and i love how this plastic in allows me to like go like this, when i'm curling without burning myself. So i like it. I think it's a really good product. What do y'all think i love this. If you tried this one, let me know down below. I didn't know how necessary this was, but these ones this little teeny, tiny curler. I have been using this for my v part wig. So if i do it like a curly v, part wig, my hair doesn't match like the loose curly v part wigs like if it's kinky curly, then i can make it work but like the loose curly, no ma'am. So if i don't want to do like the finger coiling method to make my hair blend into the v part - or u part wigs with the finger curling method, i just pre-stretch my hair use a cream base product. I put it on my hair and then i finger coil it, but if i can't do that i'll use this - and this is the red by kiss curling iron i'll, just curl my natural hair and blend it into the wig. Yes, i love that i love having this on hand because it's clutch it's clutch, even if you want to like curl some little pieces on your wig, it's clutch just to have one of these, and i think i got this from the local beauty supply store. You can get it from amazon, can't remember how much it was, but i'll leave a link for it down below. Next, let's go ahead and get into curlers rollers. I have these remington hot rollers. I love these. I feel like a rich housewife when i use these. These are hot rollers, so basically these rollers get hot, but they don't get like so hot that you can't touch them, but they are pretty hot when you touch them and basically they heat up in this little contraption. You open this up and then you pull out the roller and then you attach it to your head. It comes in two sizes, so they have the smaller ones and the larger ones. This is a pretty affordable set too, but they have their smaller ones and their larger ones. They have two roller sizes and you take the clip off and you just roll this into your hair, and this is like more like a velvety sort of texture, very soft velvet texture. So it holds on to the warmth and once you're done curling your hair, you let it sit for maybe five to ten minutes. Let the hair down. You have gorgeous curls um and they stay forever, because your hair is not super hot and the hair cools in the hot rollers. I think this only works for like mid-length hair. I'Ve used it for long hair and it's a little bit more difficult, because these rollers are small, but i'm in love with hot rollers. If i were to be getting ready one day, throwing up some makeup or something like that and had a little bit more time. I use a hot roller and be done love this. So my next favorite rollers are a gift from the lord. Above these things, these uh. What do they call these satin satin like rope, rollers i've been using these lately. I'Ve been wearing my wigs like after i finish my videos, usually i take them off immediately, but i haven't been feeling like doing that lately so tonight i'm going to be using these. I have a set of three. These are perfect for traveling, so basically with satin rollers. These are supposed to be worn for like a couple of hours or overnight, and what i do with my satin rollers is before i go to bed. I put the satin roller here, you're supposed to put a hair clip right here and then i just wrap. I take my hair and i wrap it around all the way till you get to the end and once you do that and you let it sit, i promise you, your hair is going to love you the next day the curls are gorgeous they're bouncy. They stay and it's perfect for like kinky straight wigs, because kinky straight wigs, don't really hold a curl unless you add product to it. If you add a little bit of water, you talk about, the curls are going to be gorgeous the next day, so you can do it dry or wet, or 10 % wet, not like wet wet. Just a little bit wet the curls will be gorgeous. You will. Thank me later i got these off of amazon a while ago. I know some girls just do like the ends, but if you want this sort of like curly look, do it from the top to the bottom, and i love these satin rollers, because once you roll the hair, it has like these little snaps on it. So you go like this: you wrap it around. You roll the hair around it, and then you clip it up here. So your hair is tucked away. Oh, this is actually like a cute little headband, but basically like you're tucking, your hair away. So you don't have to like, when you're sleeping you don't have to worry about what to do with those tail ends. You just wake up and you're cute in the morning. I love using these satin rollers perfect for travel if you're wearing a wig or a unit, or you got tape, ins or something like that use this. I promise you you do it correctly you'll wake up next day, giving bombshell curls. I love this. Remember i told you: i ain't got no flick of the wrist. This girl right here. This is a cheese, spinning curl. This is an automatic curler. It automatically curls your hair for you, it curls it backwards. It curls it forwards. You turn it on. It heats up to the temperature you want, it tells you how long to hold the curl you let the curl out boom. You have a beautiful curl. I want to show y'all what it looks like right now. Turn it on she's heating up to 410 degrees. It tells you she communicates. Okay, and i love that about her. You can do a 19 second hold. You can do like a nine second home you can do shorter holds. I always do a long hold you see on the front. You can go, there's one going. Two arrows going two ways: so if i'm curling and i want the curls to go away from the face, which is usually how i like them, i'll press this way and it'll spin that way or i'll press the other way. Okay, let me show you how it works. Real, quick i've put too much heat on this hair today, but see i'm gon na hold it for 19 seconds. Oh girl, my lace is just lacing ain't. She, oh it's hot too. Look at that curl! I don't need this curl to stay so i'ma go ahead and comb her out real quick, but look at that. It is such a beautiful. I want to do the same thing to this side. I want it to be. Even i think i have a problem such a clutch tool. I think this one cost like 70, something dollars from target, but it was worth it. I love how it makes my wigs look. I love how effortless it is and for people that are novices it's worth. The investment because it saves you time and effort and that's what i love - okay, i'm here for saving time and effort, that's what we do around here in order to set those curls. I love this product. This is the pantene pantene call me, okay, cause. I just talked about y'all a couple times. I love the pantene air spray. This is the alcohol free hairspray. It is. I have the number three breathable flex flexible hole in order to hold those curls all night, but you want them to be like soft. I love this air spray because it smells like a salon. It smells so. Oh, my god, it smells so good, it's a light. It doesn't make the hair crunchy and it gives like the hold that you want. I love using this stuff. I like to have it on hand? I don't use it that much when i do. I am in love, it smells so so good and it's accessible, i mean like you, can get it from target. I think you can get it from anywhere, so that's everything. Let me turn her off. I mean those are all of my favorite products, your must-haves for 2022, my favorites from 2021.
