How To Apply Hand-Tied Weft Hair Extensions | Thicken It Truly Seamless Hair Extensions

My name is Linda Albani. Handmade weaves are something that I love and I am going to show you every detail of how it is done. I am going to show you my passion. So we start by putting the needle in the thread and when we tie it we are going to make a double knot. and this way we get a good grip when we're working so it should look like this and always with the arm extended this long and we start our first sectioning I'm going to show you how to divide the

hair

into sections for the first row, so this is the following.

You generally want to stay two fingers away from your ear and two fingers away from your

hair

line to get a nice clean section and it's easier to work with. our model chloe here today say hello chloe hi she is excited to have longer hair so the next step is to measure your hair extension, open it wide so this is our starting point so you are going to put a pin in there so you remember what do you have To start this is the furthest you're going to go here behind the ear, so this is your start and also mark the other side.

This will be the start on that side and we will begin our process, so take a good while. small triangular section about half an inch wide and you start sewing the beads on, it should be nice and neat and clean, you run it through there, you have the thread, you're going to start. I'm using this colored thread because generally, even though I'm blonde the roots are sometimes darker and the brown thread goes better with the roots or the light brown I must say there are different browns so you leave this so you can tie it with the

weft

thread and then you just enclose it and lift it up a little bit at the root so that when it grows out it's comfortable, you're not directly at the root and you commit and close, it's a nice neat section so you have where you're going to put the points and then we go through underneath so that the thread is on top again, just below the loop and you follow it all the way around, so when you think about how much hair to put in, you have to think about density with density.

His hair isn't that thick, so you're not going to put it on. six

weft

s on it in a row, that's too much, you have to even out their density, so I would use three at most in the first row and you know by doing this method you're also going to put your own individual touch on it, everyone does that. Whatever method you show or technique you show, everyone makes it their own because hairdressers are all different, they think differently, they work differently. I think that's what makes us great, so hairspray will help with the little flyaways so they don't get in the way. you take a thin rectangular section and you pass it through there, so you grab the hair, remember after you finish the loop you go right under the bead and over it to the next nice clean section and you go right under it a little bit when you're close to the scalp, you go a little downward so as not to do it directly outside the scalp, this way it has room to grow without pulling the hair and it is more comfortable, perfect, this way you place the hair right on the bead. and then you're ready for the next section, a nice clean section and your bead is fine so now you wind it and you cut the thread and you leave it here because this thread is going to join the weft thread so now Let's

apply

the hair and get it ready for the next step this is how you're going to hold it down until you're ready to sew it in and then we're going to start sewing this easy breezy one so this is it and then we're going to start sewing it right here the colors are beautiful , perfect, match once again with me when I'm done, I could melt the root a little bit darker to match your root so it blends in better, so our first point takes a little bit off. of the pins, you grab the hair right there and you start making a knot and remember the hair that we kept from the bottom here we are going to tie it and cut it there, we have our knot again, the reason I chose the darker thread is because I'm going to melt the roots, so this will blend better than the blonde thread, uh, and now we can start sewing our wefts, that's the first stitch, so these are

hand

tied

wefts, usually.

You could see the thread at the end of the plot right here. See this blonde thread? I'm going to cut it right here. You see this is cut but don't cut it too close to the weft because then the weft will come undone and remember these are soft wefts and very sensitive so go down about an inch and a half down and cut it this won't bother it this is nice and flat this won't bother you this should last you and the rest is easy, oh that's right, this is how we roll it, come in through the weft and always stay in this pattern so you get a nice square tension at the root.

See how nice and deep the kind of stitching is that stays on it? Always remember the same pattern, don't go under the bead, just go around the two sides of the bead, so this approximately for a full head will take an hour and a half. With color, you should block in at least two hours for this. process because after you put this on you're probably going to melt the roots or maybe put in a couple of darker pieces, you know, depending on what you want and what look you're achieving, so you need to block out two hours and that's it you can put one, two even three rows of hair depending on what is needed if you are looking to lengthen you have to put three rows if you are looking for only volume you can put one or two rows if the hair on top allows you to sometimes you can also lengthen it with two rows and remember that you are using very small amounts of your hair to hold a large amount of hair, so you'll get a lot of hair with very little of your own. used, let's ask Chloe how she feels so far.

I don't even feel like she has anything in her hair. It's super light. They are very light and easy and most of the time help the client's hair grow. Because they do it less when they are happy, clients get their hair less dirty. What I have noticed is that many clients over the years have damaged their hair by using the flat iron too high out of hate, so they will go in. and I'll put these on them and somehow they stop using the iron, they use more curling irons so they get a nice curl look more than with the iron, so that helps with their hair, it could curl, it could.

It can be washed, it can be blown like your own hair, it becomes part of you sometimes, like when I, when I take my niece's hair out, she says, oh my God, I feel naked without it, they get used to it, they get used to it. love it, you can braid it. air dry it braid it an hour later you get pretty beach waves when you loosen it there are so many things you can do with it how long does it last um it could last depending on how you take care of your hair six to eight months six to eight months yeah all you have What to do is every three or four weeks that you come, we upload them a little and then, in a couple more weeks, you upload them all, take them out and do them again.

Clients love it and you get to see them more often, which is great because clients love us, but unless they need us, they won't come see us, so towards the end you're going to do the points a little more often than you do it all the time because you have the best grip here at the ends this is my first video I know I'll get better at it I'm excited and this is the final step so you're going to cut the thread and you're I'm going to tie the knot again with the previous thread of the beads and then I'm going to cut it out and that's the first row here we go so we finished the first row and now I'm going to bring down the next section and we're I'm going to start our second row and I'm going to show you the final results so I finished the first row and this is what it looks like and you can wear it, you can wash it, there is no tension, it's really comfortable when you wear your With your hair up, no one will ever see it, it looks so beautiful, so I'll take down the next section and we'll start the second row and I'll show you the final results in a minute.
