 Most of you that know me know that I have recently gone through a pretty dramatic weight loss Weight loss does lead to hair loss. I have battled this several different times in my life Most of the time when I'm trying to lose weight Sometimes when I've done when I've had a lot of stress when I lost my sister I had about with my hair half of my hair volume being gone And then I had a huge patch of alopecia where I if you don't know what that is It's where you just lose your hair in big round patches and your skin actually gets real smooth where it is Thankfully, I wore my hair long enough that I could just you know comb it over and do okay But what I wanted to show you today was a very quick very easy way to Disguise this whole receding hairline thing we got going on and I know that so many of you have battled with this too So I wanted to just really quickly get in here and show you guys I'm trying to look in my little viewfinder and it's ridiculous So I just wanted to really quickly go through this with you guys and show you how I disguise my high forehead and my hair that has been lost right in here and through here so that it's not so Noticable, so I'm just gonna zoom you in just a tiny tiny bit Okay, and in zooming you in I'm going to show you a little bit more in depth. It goes quite a ways back I do wear my hair forward Obviously, I don't wear a pin back like this because it would be a really hard thing All I want you to do is just get a pointed brush. This is kind of fanned out a little bit This is a Luxe brush that I have but it does come to a point right here, and then it has kind of tapered Bristles on there. So hopefully that's easy to see for you guys I guess I can put it up here so you can see it a little better And then I'm going to be using my very favorite contour of all time And this is from Sephora, and this is one of their colorful Whatever it's from their collection Sephora collection, and it's called second chance And so all I'm going to be doing is swirling my brush around in there You can see that I love this because I've hit pan on it already And I'm just going to be swirling that brush in there I'm getting a lot of product on there and what I'm going to do is I'm going to follow where that natural hairline Would have normally gone. So I'm not going to be bringing anything around here forward yet So I'm going to just go up in here, and I'm going to just kind of connect from here at the top Down here to the temple. So that is really where I'm missing the most hair is that area right there and Brush it back into the hair. Powder is not going to make your hair feel greasy during the day It's not going to do any of that so you guys can see how immediately it just made that look really good And so much better as far as kind of looking like it's filled in and that's really all we're doing And I chose this color right here because my root color That's not bleached out is actually a very ashy blonde color a dark ashy blonde and so this works really good for my scalp and Matching up my hair color that's underneath. So again I'm just going over to this side, and I'm just going right into there into the area where it is so Sparse and I'm just building it up and I tried to kind of push my brush a little bit underneath The hair so that it can kind of you know fill in there and be able to disguise it and I use quite a bit of product You guys I'm not I'm not kind of being stingy with the product I'm using a lot of product because I really want that to be hidden Okay, so now on the forehead I do have a high forehead too because it's all receded because of all this hair loss Plus you can see right here. This is where my normal forehead would start That's a pretty high forehead The rule of thumb is if you can put four fingers up there on your forehead You need some contour if you have three fingers You need a tiny bit if you have to you don't need any contour just so you guys know that So I'm going to take that same brush, and I'm going to go in there again You know what brush works really good on this if you don't want to spend a lot on a brush is The elf small stipple brush I think it's like four dollars or something and so I'm going to continue to stay in this hairline up here And I'm just going to kind of stipple across here a little bit and get that Hairline to be really looking like there's a shadow up there So it doesn't look like it so stark white and so even though we're contouring We're actually concealing our very high forehead or our Receding hairline whatever you want to call it in order to be able to kind of conceal that we don't have as much hairs We used to so as I lay down that product and as I get enough product on there now What I'm going to do is I'm going to push my brush forward like this and Instead of pushing it back because if I pushed it back I might run the risk of getting too much down here and kind of looking blotchy so I'm going to push that brush forward from the hairline forward and Just keep blending until you feel like you've got a really really good blend on that forehead And you're going to be just surprised at how well this does as far as really concealing All of that now one of the things that you can do sometimes it gets a little bit too muddy up there Sometimes you want it to look a little bit different I just take one of my really fluffy brushes and some bronzer this one is from the going coconuts line talk to the palm from Colourpop and I'm just going to actually stipple that in your hand like that it takes an excess product off So you're not getting too much and I'm just going to bronze up right there in between the forehead and the contour So I'm just bronzing that up to bring a little bit of life out there So we don't look quite so gray as far as what we did at the contour But you really do want that grayish color when you're doing the contour if you find something that's too warm You're going to end up having it look just like you've bronzed up there Not like your anything is shadowed or hidden and that's really what we want So I'm just taking this over that and I'm just giving it just a really good little buffing And then I'm going to take that bobby pin out and I'm going to fix my hair so you guys can see So I panned out just a little bit so you can see I just fluff this hair up here a little bit I tuck one behind my ears and you can see how well that does at kind of giving the Illusion that I don't have that hairline as far back as I actually do because I do do a deep part on this side But at the same time I cover as much as I can on this side.
