Video Transcript

"Hi, this is Liz Muller from Liz's Hair Design in Hollywood, Florida. In this clip I'm going to show you how to wrap ethnic hair. So, of course Mia when she gets home, I want her to wrap this hair but before she leaves, sometimes I wrap it. And let me show you something that's really important when you're wrapping hair, okay, the direction that the hair in which you do. You want to go ahead and take the hair, break it up in half, like half this way, half the other way. Okay. You want to go ahead and push this back a little bit. And then you're going to go ahead and proceed to go around like this, half the head from the ear to the other side of the head this way. Okay. Now for those who are not you know, steady, and have fear of just losing all the hair you can clip it right by the ear right here. Okay. Then you take the other part of the hair by holding your hand here, okay, and if you were at home you'd hold it here and you'd try to get it around - this is really difficult but you try your best. But if beautician's doing it she can just go around the hair like this, holding it here also, bringing it around, and just - it's very soft you know, after it gets done, so you just have to take your time, take your time. Sometimes I have to go ahead and redo it again, okay, and it drives me nuts 'cause it's dropping. But if the hair is nice and soft you just, you know play with it, take your time, don't get stressed out. If you're at home just again try it over and over again. You just want to continue to wrap the hair like this and you put another clip here, okay, and you smooth it out by using a flat brush. You want to go ahead and take a flat brush and smooth it out like this, and then you have to just smooth out the ends and then put the hairnet around it and you're done."
