HANDTIED EXTENSION TUTORIAL *NEW METHOD*

What's up beauties, welcome back to my channel Holy Hair? In this video, I will show you a different

method

than the previous hand tied

extension

video

tutorial

. This

method

will be a little easier and a little different, but with Hand Tied Extensions, there are many different methods and it just depends on the thickness of your client's hair type. You know if you have really fragile fine hair or if you have thick and coarse hair, it just depends on the method you're going to use and also. how many wefts are you putting in and how much length do you want, all of that, so these are all things to keep in mind when choosing which method to use for your hand tied

extension

s, so I just want to share that with you as well.

I know from my previous video that I am self-taught, so I don't have a hand-made certification from anyone. I don't call it anything. I don't have any special names for these methods, maybe I'll come up with names in the future, but I'm just sharing with you what I've learned, just doing this myself in my own experience and what works on my clients' hair, all They will be different, so keep that in mind as you watch this

tutorial

. Some notes, if you want, you can always look back at them and I recommend that if this is your first time doing this practicing on a mannequin or maybe some friends who want to try hand tied extensions, you know, buy some of the tools and you already know.

Have that client, person or friend buy the hair and then you just say "Hey, I'm practicing this new method and I'm doing it for free with them so you can practice a little and it's nice to practice on real people after you." I've practiced on mannequins because then they can use the hair and live on them and you can see what works and what doesn't work, like anything in the hair industry you learn as you go and you can always tweak. things next time, so before we start, I like to set everything up for my client, um, so this is going to be the weft that we're going to tie, it's two wefts, two hand tied wefts and these are super long. re 22 inches um she's actually just doing this to get fullness and a little bit of length so we're just going to do a row because she has super super fine hair.

We tried two rows before with two wefts in each row and she found that it was too much hair for her to handle so we found that just one row works best for her and we tried the single row and it looked full enough that at end will work, like I said, everyone's hair is different, every client is going to be different, so keep that in mind if you watched my previous video. I showed them that I have a handmade Jay-Z Styles kit. This is the kit, it comes with scissors, thinning scissors, the bead applicator and it comes with the pliers and then the bead removal tool, so I got a kit from it.

I didn't get certification from her, but I bought the extension kit from her. I'm going to thread the needle and get that game. The hook style needle I took out. Amazon in a 10 pack, I'll link that in the description, the thread I got from Jay-Z Styles and also the beads I got from her, but I also use Hot Heads beads so I have two different types of beads that I like. to use depending on the client's hair type okay so what I'm going to do first is measure some thread and I just measure it with my arms and take two spans of thread and then I'm going to put this through the needle and then you'll find it at the end and you'll take the two ends of the rope and you'll just tie this end into a knot like this.

Alright, so you're going to have a double string and then you're going to set it aside and then when you've got everything set up, you're just going to want to have your bead holding tool, your beads, and your sewing needle. and yarn, and I'm here helping myself today, she'll be filming for me while I do this tutorial for you, okay, so I've got her sectioned and as you can see, we've made a horseshoe section that starts a little bit higher on the sides and then it swings down on the back and you want to make sure that you're at least two fingers above his ear.

I'm three fingers above her ear, so we have a lot of room there and I'm going to move on. and measure, so what we're going to do is take our weft and I'm going to put it around your hair and I'm just going to ask you to clip it for me real quick and then I'm going to put my little curl clips on the edges where each end is so that let's mark where we're going, you can go where we're going to start and finish the beads, and I'm going to use them. the blonde beads on her this is the vanilla and I already have them on my little bead situation or bead string or whatever it's called you're just going to need a rat tail comb and we're going to start with the beads so she's got the very fine hair so I'm a little tight.

I'm going to have to use the beading tool here, so going up to the first bead pulling the hair perfect and then when I'm using my holding tool, you want to make sure it's flat against your head, so I'm going to twist it, no I'm going to hold it here like this, I'm going to hold it like this, oh okay, this is what the beads are going to look like when you have them all on, I want it to be um, you want the end to meet the end of the hair that's on the bead. on each side, okay, so you're going to clip the um extensions into her hair. around so it stays secure and then we'll take the thread that we've already threaded and I'll run it through your hair here at the end and you'll go under the hair and then under the weft and in this first stitch you'll go through the two strings and that will secure the end here and then every time you tighten it, you're going to pull up and I'm going to make a couple. on each side and then I'm going to go under the bead as well, okay, and then I'm going to go under the bead and then to the side, so on the ends here I'm just going to go all the way to the end and then I'm going to back off one stitch just to secure it at the end here so it's really flat and then all we're going to do on this final piece here after we finish our last stitch is just cut it off and then you're going to take the two pieces of thread and tie it off at the end. and you can style it this is what it will look like, come on.
