[@Ancient_Sweet]

Ohhhhhhh.!! I’m new to this so I was always confused as to why bleaching the knots was necessary and now I see😭😭. Bleaching makes a HUGE difference.

[@ruthwells3990]

This was a much needed and VERY INFORMATIVE video. Great to see both options, and side by side comparison. I think you did an AWESOME job on both. Thanks for sharing.

[@64372Cheeky]

I was just about to say this but you said it perfectly.

[@jaspertripp6086]

you prolly dont give a shit but does any of you know a method to log back into an Instagram account?? I stupidly lost my login password. I appreciate any tips you can offer me

[@jaspertripp6086]

@Brysen Dash Thanks for your reply. I found the site through google and im trying it out atm. I see it takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.

[@jaspertripp6086]

@Brysen Dash it did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. Im so happy:D Thanks so much, you saved my account !

I feel cheap because I can’t even afford a wig that cost 179$ 😩😞

[@nizedonmwen]

Katie Bishop don’t sis .... cause I won’t pay that either 😂😭

[@mwakakashinka5015]

Makes the two of us

[@cocoxoxoxo7881]

Katie Bishop ur not alone hunni don't feel bad most of us can't lol!

[@sakaimelquinetta]

I'm sure she was gifted this wig as a review or something. A lot of KZbinrs receive the wigs from the company's because they want them to keep making videos which lead to customers. Many people can't afford these wigs. Don't feel bad.

[@TheFuckinInfluence]

Neither can I. One late night I was going through one of my MANY hair crisis. Mind you, I have never worn a wig at this point. I bought some CHEAP Brazilian bundles (w| closure) from Amazon and made the wig myself by watching tutorials. That wig still hanging in there and looks GOOD ! Cost me a whole $60.00. These wig prices can pay one of my bills 🤣🤣🤣 lol (but seriously)

[@joiflower3412]

That's crazy I didn't even realize its such a huge difference

[@GirlfriendNinja]

Thanks for this. I did not quite understand bleached knots. This really makes it easy to comprehend.

It does

[@veronicad8730]

What a great comparison video! I really want to try the bleach method but I'm really nervous. Hair is expensive and I don't want to mess it up. Maybe I'll try on one of the cheap wig first.

[@tionatee8818]

Im trying it on a cheap wig now, I'll let you know results later

[@LionEatsCats0034]

Tiona Trader I’m trying on a cheap synthetic one now

[@belletaunde102]

@@LionEatsCats0034 it probably won't work, you can't bleach synthetic hair apparently :( it would've been good for practice

[@jaydiamond9893]

@@belletaunde102 glad you said something 👏

[@ItsMeTreyTV]

I prefer the bleached knots because it makes the knots look more natural and believable instead of not having them bleached.

[@XXyounglove09XX]

Yoohh

[@DreaAffair]

Ugghhh I rather not bleach the knots but it’s definitely needed for the most realistic look.

[@naominatural79]

Same I bought my bleaching products but I don’t have much time so I’m just going to wear it without bleaching.

[@obieamudo306]

this was SUCH a useful video!!!! I've been wondering how important bleaching the knots on a wig are because I'm a beginner and don't want to mess up my wig, thank you for getting up close and really showing us what the lace looks like!!!! definitely got a new subscriber ((:

[@LovelyBryana]

Happy I can help! 🥰

[@cloudysky9588]

Did you bleach it? If so how’d it go?

[@zalaelle190]

Watching this in 2021. I'm new to the wig game and came across this video. This is the best I've seen on bleaching knots love how you only did one side to show the difference. Thank you !!😩😍

[@computerlove14]

“I’m pretty sure they know you got a wig on yo head”😭😭😭

[@fnf1031]

Sis I’m on my first wig. Since it’s my first I’m OK with experimenting. My next wig gone be 💣

[@mariettemayisa]

I hurts me because i'm so bad at bleaching knots, but tbh it really does make a difference if you want to have the melted lace look 😭

[@rheannaf.819]

Thank you for this ! I’m new to the wig world and not comfortable bleaching them just yet

[@DanteVelasquez]

Wow I'm usually not a fan of bleaching knots because it weakens the integrity of the hair but I​ will now have to reconsider this. thanks :-)

[@maiah4644]

Is that true I want to get my hair made into the wig but I don’t want to ruin my 7x7 closure especially how it was so expensive

[@DanteVelasquez]

@@maiah4644 bleach strips hair of natural defenses, and hair that is no longer receiving sebum from a follicle is even more vulnerable. Makeup does a great job in concealing the knots in my opinion. With how expensive these wigs and closures are I would air on the side of caution conservatism and not use the bleach. But of course it is a personal preference.

[@maiah4644]

@@DanteVelasquez ok but would it make the hair fall out of the lace or would it knot up

[@DanteVelasquez]

@@maiah4644 it very well could yes. It weakens the hair so it can break more easily.

[@aijah4715]

Hey so how many times can you wear a HD lace wig ? When you bleach the knots

[@JadeCarter66]

omg thank you so much for showing the differences. I started hating lace front wigs because I hated the knots. It drove me crazy and I was upset because I would spend so much money. Now I know I have to bleach the knots. Thanks for sharing!

[@LovelyBryana]

You’re welcome! 🥰

[@nikkiclark8810]

The realest wig video I’ve seen so far cause that’s always how it turns out for me

[@rabbikalala408]

Bleaching the knots are better, because it gives you a natural look

[@kelly4618]

Still valid 3 years later! Thank you for making this video!

[@JT-tx2ns]

Good job. I’d rather use makeup. It helps keep the hair from falling out anyway

[@yazmeanpinto]

I bleached my notes and they barely even bleached, but they did turn my hair brown ㅠㅡㅠ I'm so sad.

[@tapangarotman4546]

Your real hair? Or the wig hair?

[@hayleigh7074]

Wow, this was super informative! I always wondered what the difference between bleached and unbleached knots made.

[@lovleesmoviereviews]

Thank you so much 🙏🏽🙃

[@jaybee8132]

Im more concerned with the bleach sinking through and ruining the actual wig

[@LovelyBryana]

Make the bleach paste kind of thick so that it doesn’t rub

[@Rachelvander]

What do you have on your lips? The color is gorgeous!

I have been asking everyone this and no one could give me the right answer so your video is an mf lifesaver for me thank you so much go had blessed me with you and your videos in my life hasha-na-na-na

[@kelly4618]

Me too girl! Did you bleach or makeup?

[@donyamonique]

Hi Bryana! This is my first time watching one of your videos and it was so helpful! I didn't know what it meant to bleach knots, but now I know! :-)

[@Mz_Laydee]

lol at no one should be too close up on you. I have coworkers & my family in my head all the time trying to see if it’s my natural hair. My coworkers stand close up over me while I’m sitting at my desk and staring into my head like they really have something to talk to me about!🤦🏽‍♀️

Thank you for showing this! In the description for the wig, it actually says that the first 2 inches of the knots are bleached. I'm glad to see that is not the case before ordering!

What a great video, I’m currently trying to decide whether to bleach or not 🙆🏾‍♀️😩😩 think I’ll stop being lazy and just bleach x

[@yourfavouritescepticx8969]

Yeah I think ima bleach the knots as lazy and confused as I am 😂.. I hate the idea of putting makeup on lace

[@mireillebitangacha8180]

Can you still bleach the knots after you cut the lace ? I got to too excited and cut the lace off and powders are just now cutting it for me. It's a full lace wig

[@lesliemarie7438]

Thx for making this video. I'm just starting to wear wigs. And I always asked my friends "What does Bleaching the knots mean on wigs" and those BITCHES all have full think hair so I always got "I DONT KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS"..lol ..so thx again for clearing it up for me AND showing how to do it... your the best.

About 20 mins

This was just the video I needed. I did a big chop and I’m starting to wear lace wigs. I installed my first one but was scared to bleach my knots so this will work until I get the courage. 😅

The bleach side is better. I WISH I'd seen these vids before i started wearing wigs 😫😖😖😖

If it’s already bleached you don’t have too only if the knots are still dark

[@cheekiereynolds]

Ok so now I know what it means to bleach knots lol. I feel so late. Idk if I’ll ever be as good as you, but I’m going to try this on my new unit. Is there a particular color that I need to get to match my skin tone? Especially for a brown skinned girl? Thank you so much for this video. It helped me so much.

I’m new to the game and so glad I found your channel. Love how you show the comparisons!

You are SOOO bomb for doing this video for us

[@blkqtpy]

Hello, can you tell me what you use when you over bleach the knots? I understand getting the dialed in getting a Sporley and retouching up the roots of the hair I get that I’ve done that but my lace itself is still so brassy I’ve gotten the color charm toner and I’ve done the tea 15 let it sit on it it’s still freaking brassy. I’ve done the tea, dipped it in tea and let it sit in that it’s still brassy. What else can I do?

[@LovelyBryana]

Have you tried a purple shampoo and letting it sit on the lace for about 15 mins then washing or make sure the toner is purple

[@blkqtpy]

@@LovelyBryana yes I’ve done everything I’ve let that purple shampoo sit on it for like 20 to 30 minutes. I went and bought the Wella toner and developer and let that sit on it and nothing is changing. The color of that lace is still brassy throughout.

[@R1333-l4e]

Can you bleach the knots when you have Putten foundation on your lace aready or will the foundation stop the bleaching

[@simplykashh]

This is important & very much needed👍🏽 thank you so much

Wow I just learned sooo much !

[@TheAnnieG07]

HELP!! I bought a Kendall wig by Henry Margu which is synthetic with a mono top and lace front. The wig is very dark brown and the lace front hairline is covered with black fake looking knots!! I called the store where I bought it (over $400!) and they said they can’t bleach synthetic knots-only human hair knots! Is that true?? (I would just need to bleach the lace front hairline not the top of cap). They were so rude and said “no one has ever complained of knots before except you”. I am so upset to waste that much money and they won’t do a thing to help!!

[@eyekandy3000]

TheAnnieG07 synthetic hair is plastic so it won’t bleach. Try the foundation or Sally Hansen leg spray.

[@mekdi2895]

who bought this hair before ? I need to know if it's worth the money

[@veem585]

Does the bleach get on the hair?

[@LovelyBryana]

If you make the mixture thick enough it should go through
