I don't want to cut the lace off on my head
because I don't want to hurt myself and,
you know, end up cutting my face.
Oh, no.
Oh no, no, no, honey.
Hey, guys.
Celebrity hairstylist and beauty entrepreneur
Kahh Spence here with Refinery29.
I've been doing hair for about the past
five years professionally, but I've been doing
it for almost all my life.
I also just launched my first business,
Kahh Spence Beauty.
Hair is so special to me
because my mother was so connected to it,
God rest her soul.
She passed away about three years ago.
She was the one that first introduced me to this.
She was my biggest inspiration, the biggest supporter of mine.
So I think everything I do will be for her.
I recently did a pink wig look on Doja Cat,
and I think people loved it.
It was like this really nice strawberry pink shade.
Today I'll be showing you guys how I got this Doja Cat pink wig.
But before we get into it, please make sure you subscribe below.
So let's get into it.
This wig is from my friend's wig line,
Bombshell Studios in Connecticut.
And so I'm just starting by
spraying a little bit of water across the hairline.
I'm just gonna start in one area first.
So I'm just gonna take this comb.
You can use a comb or brush.
I'm going to be grabbing my tweezers,
and we're gonna just start plucking the hairline
of the wig just so the hairline has more of a natural finish.
And what you want to do is you want to pluck enough,
but you don't want to pluck too much
to the point where you leave any sort of balding spot.
My goal is to make sure it matches my hairline.
Like, my hairline doesn't sit this low.
So I'm just gonna move the hairline back just a little.
I'm gonna take this brush and kind of just
brush everything I just plucked out.
So I'm gonna blow dry the wig
just so that it's all fully dry because I colored it and
then I let it dry overnight.
I used Kiss Colors' Pink Petal and Atomic Pink,
and I mix them together and then just put
it in a bowl of hot water,
dip the wig in there, and then boom.
I'm just gonna do like some quick waves throughout the hair.
I'm going to take my flat iron,
I'm using a one inch, and just create some really nice,
quick, beachy waves.
And I don't want these waves to look perfect at all.
And then after I'm going to spray it
with a little of my favorite OGX Multi-Benefit Spray.
So now what I'm gonna do is I'm going to cut the lace off.
Take this right here
and just start going like along the hairline,
not too far back.
But also, I like to leave
just enough lace there just in case
for any like, you know, any little mishap areas.
But you don't want to leave too much lace.
And I like using this because it doesn't give it
that straight edge finish.
It gives it like a,
you know, it gives it a different feel and a different finish.
So I think it makes it look a little more natural.
And so we're done.
I'm about to put this wig on my head
and then we're gonna apply together.
So now I'm going to take some clips
just to pull all of the hair back.
Sorry I'm not looking directly at you guys.
My apologies.
I'm just trying to make sure that everything
is in the right place
before I start gluing down.
I'm gonna start with the forehead area.
And then I'm just gonna take the back of this banana clip,
which is pretty easy for me.
And then I'm just gonna apply a really thin,
thin layer of glue, people.
Thin!
And just apply that right above your hairline.
And if you feel any hair, like I can feel hair getting in there,
then you could grab
another clip,
or just like a comb, and kind of just brush that back.
And then if you ever, you know, like you see how this is happening?
Just boom.
Pluck that bad boy right away.
And then you want to do about two or three layers of glue.
If this is something you want to keep on
for a long period of time.
I'm only keeping this on for right now, so I'm only gonna do one layer.
And then I'm gonna take my blow dryer on cool,
and then I'm gonna apply that bad boy down.
Take a little comb
and kind of just massage that in there.
You can see how it blends right into my skin.
It is a little lighter, so I've applied a little bit of makeup in certain areas.
There's hair in my eye.
Because I have my beard there,
I'm not going to be able to tack that fully down right there,
so I'm gonna leave my ear flap blank.
But I'm telling you guys now so you guys
don't see that and say, "Oh my god, you forgot an area."
But it's mainly because I don't
want to put glue on my hair,
and I don't want to shave my beard.
I know you guys are probably wondering how I got my lace
to lay down a little flatter
or just to sit next to my skin better.
I just used some of the OGX Big Hair Spray
and just sprayed it right on the lace
to kind of melt it in my skin a little better.
So the entire wig is applied on my head.
It looks so good!
Now I'm just going to touch up.
Again, I'm just doing these cool little waves,
and I love them cause, like,
they're so cute.
The process of applying this wig
was so different on myself versus on Doja Cat,
because she had just performed
and so she had on a different wig
that another stylist had done.
And so I had to take that off
and then rebraid her hair and then apply this wig.
But I loved the outcome and she loved the color.
So it was really cool.
And then after I had, you know, told her my nickname,
because I like to call myself the
Slay God.
And she was like, oh my god, where did that name come from?
And I was just like, I mean, hello.
Everything I do be slaying.
So why not call myself the Slay God.
And I don't know if some of you guys know, but my client
roster includes, like I've touched,
Kehlani, Ella Mai, Cardi B,
Doja, Megan Thee Stallion, Winnie Harlow, Normani,
and that's to name a few.
I'll probably call my manager to show her how I look,
and then I'll probably call Ella.
And she'll probably laugh and say, "Oh my god, you look so good."
Or in her accent, "Oh my god, you look so good."
And yes, I'm talking about Ella Mai, ladies and gentlemen.
And then I'm going to take some of this dry texture spray
to make it appear bigger and
a little more value.
And then I'll probably go back in with a brush
and just tease it just a little.
And I just love how this came out.
This entire process, I want to say, from start to finish,
could probably take you anywhere
from three to four hours.
So you guys can do this at home.
And, of course, let us know in the comments section
what you guys have been doing during
this quarantine.
