Hey everyone, and thanks for tuning in. This is a MiLisa hair review by, of course, me, TT Does It All. So sit back, relax, and let's open up what we got. We have 4 bundles of 20, 22, 24, and 26 of their Brazilian loose wave hair, and this is what the bundles look like out of the pack— nice and full. They were very pretty, and of course an 18-inch lace closure, 4x4 inch. So in order to make this wig, I start out with a swim cap on top of my canvas mannequin head, and that is so that I won't stitch through the net onto my canvas. It just protects it, and I've put that in previous videos as to why and showed me taking it off and how different it was. So I do double up the net underneath because this wig cap has a hole in it, and this wig cap is actually from a company So I don't actually buy these from a hair store, I just use them when they send them to me. I do like them better, they're a lot— they kind of snap to your head when you put it on, so I really like that. Alright, so moving right along, I did bleach the knots to this closure. In my previous wig with the closure, I did not bleach the knots, but I'm just showing what it will look like if you do. And I always start with sewing on the closure, even when I do a sew-in. And just in case you all were wondering, I do have videos of that, so make sure you check out that video in my list of previous videos. It was a year ago. So I start sewing on my closure. After my closure, I start with the longest length at the bottom of the back, and then I go up from there. So right now I'm sewing in the 28-inch, and then also in the 26-inch, then the 24, then the 22., and then I will put it on and style it for you all. I figured you all didn't want to sit here and watch me sew this entire wig down because I have plenty of videos with it already up. And if you are currently a subscriber, number one, thank you for being a subscriber, and number two, I'm sure you don't want to see this every single time because I show it all the time. So Um, if you're not a subscriber, you need to be subscribing like right now. So anywho, we are on to actually finishing it off. So now that I have sewn on my bundles, I am going to tweeze that hairline and make it look more natural. And honestly, I bleached the knots, I tweezed the hairline and I'm going to put a little bit of makeup on my part because I want it to look extra realistic. And you guys let me know what you think of the outcome once I show it, but to me it looks perfect. All right, so I'll go ahead and comb out all that extra hair that I combed, uh, that I tweezed out, and then I'm just going to comb it and I am going to take it off of this mannequin head. And cut off the excess lace that was not sewn into the wig, and then I will put it on. So let's just get right into some information about the closure. When I bleached the knots, when I rinsed that closure out, the wave pattern did go away, and I'm not sure if all the bundles would do it, but I definitely didn't want to wash all of them just to see. So I went ahead and straightened all of it for my final look because I just wanted straight hair. It was so pretty and so long and so full. So I want you to see the line I cut when I cut the front of that off, and now I'm putting it on. And let's fix her, let's put her in place. And now I'm going to go ahead and straighten it out a little bit, um, because it was so pretty. Like, look at the scalp, even bleaching the knots. Like, you can just— it just looks so natural, um. The hair is just so soft and so pretty, and even me straightening it— oh my God, just watch. Okay, so I went over it and I'm like, oh my God, it's so pretty. So I had to do like a backtrack. Like, did y'all see that? Like, did you see that? Did you see it? So I went ahead and straightened out everything, and you all let me know what you think of it. I loved it. It was so long, it was literally folding over in my lap as I sat there, and it just came out flawless to me. The hair is beautiful. I couldn't stop running my fingers through it. I colored the strip of it and it colored perfectly fine. It straightens beautifully. Of course, I'm using 450-degree heat. But you all go ahead and thumbs up this video if you like the hair. Like, it's just so pretty. See the wave pattern of it? It is gorgeous. You see that wave pattern of it?. So yeah, go ahead and check out the finished look and let me know what you all think about it. I was thinking about giving this wig to my mom. Can you all believe that? Then I was like, oh my God, 28 inches? No ma'am, I don't think she would know what to do with herself. Would you give this to your mom? I wouldn't. Okay, depends on what type of mom she is. So here's the finished look of me straightening everything out. As you see, I could not stop running my fingers through my hair. Like, I just wanted to show you all how soft it is, and I didn't put anything on it. I didn't even have to use my KeraCare wax stick, okay? Like, it just came out so beautiful. Like, this hair is so pretty, it's so soft. I just feel like a million bucks right now. Do you like it? Okay, let me know. I'm gonna get off y'all screen because I'm just gonna keep running my fingers through this hair.
