Before.
Begin with a blow out on dry hair using a pik attachment.
Using a one-inch flatiron, straighten the hair in one-inch sections.
Follow with gel and then run through each section one more time
with the flatiron.
Prep the hair for extensions. Begin at back and take horizontal
sections and comb down. Back comb at the scalp.
Spray at the root along the teased area to create a base.
Place clip-in wefts along base and clip in to teased area.
Flatiron weft with section to blend.
Clip in fringe.
Cut fringe to the desired length and shape with a texturizing shear.
