Another sew-in done by me, Seneca. Here I used Laniks Fresh Relaxed Texture Hair in 16'-20', with a small lace closure in the same texture also available from Lanikshair.com

The Color-
Before installing the hair, I colored it using bleach(lightener), and Wella Hair Color in a Cherry red color (forgot the name, sorry!).
-I first mixed up some BW2 lightener with a 30 devoloper, and applied it to my closure piece and let is set for about 20 min until it was honey-ish blonde.
-Next I took about 2oz of the 18' weft hair and lightened that for about 12-15 min, achieving a light brown shade.
-I applied the bleach to the rest of the 18' weft and left it for 7-8min, achieving a med brown color.
I DID NOT BLEACH THE 20' WEFTS
-I Then mixed the cherry color and applied it to all of the hair, including the hair I did not bleach and after about 20-30 mins, I rinsed, washed, and deep conditioned the hair. Then I allowed to air dry completely.

The Sew-in-
I used Shonda Dee's Method for applying the lace closure. (Check BHM, for more info) I prepped my hair by braiding it with syn hair, and applying a net. Check out the vid to see the weave base. I attached the closure first, beginning from the right side, the left, and then sewing down the back. I sewed my wefts in starting at the nape with the dark hair, and I used the lighter hair as I worked up to the crown. I then attached the lightest hair around my closure. I then secured the front of my lace closure with Salon Pro Lace Wig Bond.

The Cut- I cut the hair into very long layers, with a side bang.

Check It Out!
