 | Subject: HAIR EXTENSION WEFT- INSTALL TUTORIAL Sat 12 Jan 2008, 9:48 pm | |
| I will make my tutorial a quick and easy 1-2-3- First you want your hair to be fresh dry and clean when you are doing a tape install.
No Creams or oily anything , other wise your tape will not stick that well. Here is my hair before install
[b]I sew my wefts together so it makes it smaller / flatter and it holds better when your cleaning it. Also the reason I sew them together is if your weft is glued only sometimes your lower/ bottom weft can slide out.
I am using 3 hand tied and 1 weft here, Most girls only use 2 tops in each row, They do many rows on there heads I only do 1 or 2 tops I feel less is more and its a natural look with less wefts.

Here is a brown shot sewing to them together is just a safe bet when cleaning it will all stay together.


You should have your AIRFLEX tape. or SUPERTAPE AND NOW THERE IS BLUE LINER TAPE FOR A SUPER DUPER HOLD I THINK THIS IS GREAT IF YOUR GOING SWIMMING A LOT.
 I cut it about here so the tape is not too wide on the outside of my head

You will then peel the blue strip and strip off and then lay your hair about 1/8" above the bottom of the tape


THEN brush or pore some use a syrunge to add your lg accross the whole weft
Now you add your globby layer of glue across the tape. Don't do it thin. Now fold the rest of the tape over your weft press down on top of the tape and glue and then you can run a flat iron over it if you like and press with a comb first .





Now you want to keep the backing on the side thats lying on the table for easy application of LG, and also so it wont stick to your hands



[b]Ok now that you have your hair in the tape weft. You can do a part where ever your going to add it on your head I do it about right below my Occipital Bone or right on top it falls better if it sits right on top, this way it wont bunch up on your lower neck.

My part is not that great but who's looking I do it all the way around and about and 1" above my ear, mine ends right in front of my ear so from ear to ear is my 1 weft You will peal off the white strip. Leaving a small amount so you can press down, and not stick to the tape WITH THE SMALL WHITE STRIP you can now press press press I let mine sit for at least 3-4 min pressing the whole time and then I peel off the white strip and add my extra hair to cover the sticky tape - Some girls just take there own hair and drop it down over the tape and press. I don't have that much hair to spare so I Cover it





Now you can press press press and make sure that is is really secure and then you are done.
k so here is the New install of my Indian 20 inch long hair, Color #22 and under I added color #6 So I have on 1 weft ear to ear 3 wefts- tapped in with LG. Can't live with out my LG. HERE IS THE BACK SHOT

I do get my hair weaved 1 every 2 -3 months by my daughter she is a great colorist and then I just do a quick root job with a cheap box of Revlon color silk ash blonde lightest blonde I only leave it in maybe 3-5 min-you dont want to leave ash on to long it can or could turn your blonde Gray if you don't watch it, I only want to lift a little not a lot other wise it wont look natural, it will look bleached not lifted just a little bit. I think the more dark colors going on under the better perfect so now all you do is get it weaved all the colors you like ,, this way your roots and hair will look natural .. I always only make 1 Row ear to ear Blended sewed together because I like it flat and tight
Then I tape it all together
Start with
(1)Bohyme- 18/22 (Always on the bottom because of the weight and it works best for underneath /great color)
(1)Reallylove it hair weft 18/22 (I add this color because its a very warm-ish strawberry blonde colors great for depth coloring )
(1)Reallyloveit hair 613/27 (I add This hair because it has a lot of lighter color 613 its almost / color #60 blended with the beautiful color #27 its a beautiful mix).
(1)Bohyme- 18/22 ( I love bohyme on top also because of the color and the weight the color is almost a light light blonde brown)
Then right about my weft I tip all the way around adding to get my layers in and then more in the front/ of my ear for the layered colors and the movement is great with tipped in hair ..

My Reallyloveit.com hair #22- #27 and its so beautiful even softer than when I first installed it . new photos , I should add I never said a thing about the beard on this weft .. To be honest, Its hard to see it .? I have never been bothered by it ever. No Scratching - - - I LOVE THE FACT I HAVE NEVER EVEN THOUGHT ABOUT IT . Someone asked me and thats the only reason I am even talking about .. I forgot to even talk about it . and I know for some that is a big deal if your taping in your wefts. like me -




I GUESS I SHOULD ADD- I am not any any way liable for any hair problems or damage to anyone trying this method. Hope this helps Here is my tutorial on making my weft. Now that I did this I will add it to my tutorial http://www.reallyloveitforum.com/click-here-to-enter-hair-extension-forum-f2/hair-extension-weft-install-tutorial-t4.htm
