welcome beautiful people i am Chev b if you're new to this channel welcome wah gwan
make sure you are subscribed down below now for this hairstyle as you guys saw in the beginning of
the video this will be a half of half down style using a half wig so i'm starting off with freshly
washed hair i washed my hair about an hour ago i put some leave-in in there and then i just did
some jumbo plaits just to you know keep my hair detangled before i begin the style while i set up
and so right now i'm just going to section my hair how we'll be doing this style so i'm just going to
leave some of the hair in the front out because we're gonna have some leave outs and then in the
back section i put my hair in some jumbo duty braids as i like to call them and what i'm gonna
be using right now is my certified bella scalp oil i've been using this oil for the last two
years i have exam on the scalp and i have suffered from hair loss and bald spots and all that
unfortunate stuff and since using this oil among other things i haven't had a bald spot in over a
year so i will be continue using this oil for some continued growth so um i'll be firstly
using some heat on my hair i haven't used direct heat on my hair since i did my big chop two years
ago so first i'll be using the tresemme heat protectant and then i'm just going to blow dry
my hair now i've blow dried my hair already on my channel but we're going to be using the flat iron
later on so we have to make sure that our hair is protected and we're not going to use the over
abundance of heat just enough to achieve this style so the hair that i'll be using today is
from julia's hair hair.com and this hair is in 26 inches and it is the kinky straight
wig so this is a halfway you guys know that headband wigs and half wigs have been the thing
this year so i wanted to do something a little bit different with this hair
so i just wanted to switch it up a little bit and do something
different and out of my comfort zone so i'll be putting away the front section of my hair after
i blow dried it just to style the wig before i actually move on to style the front section of my
hair so as you guys saw the weight had about three combs and i'm just going to attach the combs um
on my hair itself with the wig cap just to make sure that it's fitted and snug no usually wig caps
or wigs rather have the adjustable straps inside so you can just adjust the strap if you want it
tighter or looser and then you have these combs to help to make sure that the wig goes nowhere okay
because you don't want to walk around with your wig moving or it falling off in these streets
now what i use is this hair oil this light oil that i usually use on all of my wigs like it's
not heavy it's really light and then with your wig you want to also put a little bit of heat
protectant on there because it's humid here and you want this hair to last as long as possible
now you can leave it in its kinky straight texture as so and with the blow blow dried hair you could
just have a blown out look but i wanted to try something different i wanted it to be a little
bit straight but still have that kinky natural type of texture to it so i'm just going through
the wig itself with my flat iron i'm doing about two runs through the wig itself and um i don't
want it to be like fully straight or like like a super silky straight type of hair because i want
to make sure that it blends with my hair so we're just gonna do a one or two pass through
once i'm done with the the back section or the wig itself um it's time to move on to straighten
my hair so guys you see i look frightful because i don't want heat damage but i know i use the proper
methods to do this i already um deep condition my hair before i use leave-in to lock in the
moisture and all that good stuff and i also made sure that i used heat protectant and i'm only
doing one run through i don't need to do three four run-throughs with the flat iron because
my hair isn't going to be like out out but i still needed it to be
flat like so so this is different my hair is fine now because i did this two weeks ago before even
posting this video and i wash my hair all that good stuff and it's completely fine so
as long as you do it right heat is not really your enemy so i just do a little trim a light
trim because i had a bit of split ends on the end because i haven't gotten a trim in a long time
ever since quarantine haven't been to my hairstylist to get my yearly deep conditioning
and shrimp and then sometime out sometimes i'll just trim my ends myself but i haven't done that
in a minute so i need to do that so look out for that video so for the half up half down
i'm taking some of the hair from the wig itself and then try to blend it with my natural hair
so i'm just going to take the hair tie and get it to be as snug as possible but also i don't want it
to be too tight because i get headaches and um yeah so we're just going to use a hair tie make
sure that it's fitted and then we're going to move on to trying to blend and style the front section
now what i'm going to do to hide the hair tie and also to blend my hair in is i'm going to
take my hair or separate it from the actual um kinky straight hair and just wrap it at the base
of the ponytail and then use a bobby pin to pin it down some people i see use um lots of your
freezing spray um i don't want the glass to be freezing spray on my natural hair okay we're not
doing nothing crazy okay i still want my hair to be there after i've completed this style so you
can use a bobby pin or you can use a elastic band i just use the elastic band on top of it i think i
twisted it twice that's it and it stayed in place like i had my hair like this for at least
three days without like removing the band or taking it down just leaving it as is and it stayed
now here's my dilemma since it's my first time doing this first time straightening my hair i
didn't know what exactly to use to keep my hair from reverting and for it to also look super
neat so i had the cheese balm edge control and this is the only edge control that i have right
now that hasn't caused any white residue on my hair and also keep my hair in place
so i didn't have the wax stick at my local beauty supply store so i didn't get a wax stick
so this was all i had to use so sometimes girl you gotta improvise i was gonna use mousse but
i know from experience using mousse on my hair will cause it to revert and have the wavy look
so um yeah this was all we had if you had something else that you could use you could do
that and i'm gonna use my pump it up spritz even though it is the liquid once the pump it up spritz
dries when you tie it down girl your hair isn't going anywhere okay anywhere at all and also it's
not a stiff type of feel which is great it's just feels like a neat fit without the stiff
type of feel or look and guys this is how the end result is looking let me know what you guys
think this is my first time trying something like this with my natural hair to get it straight like
that let me guy let me know what you guys think okay the hair is absolutely beautiful it is so
full the hair is so full and it's probably one of my favorite kinky straight hair that i have
ever tried the hair is absolutely beautiful if you haven't subscribed to the channel as yet you need
