TheBrilliantBeauty I bought this wig because you did a review on it. Mine has a lil bit of burgundy in it can't wait to wear it thanks so much for the review.😘😘
The way futura hair (all heat safe to 400 degrees is futura hair) works is that when you apply the heat it will relax into its original form which is bone straight. You must leave the heat in contact with the hair for more than a second so that it will revert. Using water when using flat irons and curling irons on future hair is not necessary as unlike human hair it does not require water to be pliable, only heat. The same principle applies when giving it shape, except that it must remain in the shape you want until it completely cools and then it will maintain that shape. A flat iron is best for straightening because it will keep the heat on the fibers while you pass it down. The hot comb will pull through the ends so fast it doesn't have a chance to get it to revert. 400 degrees is the perfect temp with a flat iron. Boiling futura hair, when set in rollers, works well because you can leave the hair submerged for a few minutes, then if you submerge it in cold water right after it will be set and the rollers can be removed. In that way, futura is the best synthetic hair because it has the most versatility :-)
Happy to help. One of my missions is not only to get people to understand the difference between synthetic and human hairs and how they are styled and cared for but also for people to see how useful and practical futura hair can be :-)
When you put it on 500 like it is what it is lol. Love how it smoothed the hair though. These are good for quick fixes. Also, I agree with you on not giving other people power. I so don't want to bring that into 2018!
I never flat iron my synthetic wigs, it takes too long and alters the texture too much. Instead I blow dry them on medium heat using a paddle brush. It's quick, easy and doesn't alter the texture. If you want a silky texture blow dry on high
i never thought to wear a wig until i found you because i felt i would look a mess but you look to make it so easy im actually thinking about buying my first wig. thank you btw
I had went thru the same thing a few years ago which lead to me feeling depressed a lot. I had to learn how to be selfish too which wasn't easy but I did it! Now I feel better and finally feel like I got control on my life better. I love your tutorials hunny, please keep posting. I wish you all the best.😍😘
Hot combs do work but with the hot comb you are suppose to use the back end to straighten not the teeth. The back of the comb is actually what does the straightening. I hope it helps you for the next time you try.
you use the teeth to slide it through, pressing it against the back straightens it as it glides. they work together, she's not saying that it's one or the other
Yes the back straightens the hair. The teeth just keeps it in a straight path hence the comb chaser when you are flat ironing your hair for the silky straight look. You glide the backend on your hair. If you were growing up you wouldn’t have used it someone else did your hair. Now ask them how it’s done 👍🏾
Synthetic futura hair doesn't burn its heat safe I wore those back when lace fronts just came out but u bodied that wig with it being synthetic 🙌🏾🙌🏾 its nice to see I'm not the only one balling on a budget lol makes wearing synthetic better especially since u slayed that
I completely agree about looking after yourself ❤ The hair looks beautiful! I'd like to see how it reacts to being recurled after being straightened - haven't seen any videos like this for Inna
Yesssss.....being selfish....right up my alley....i call it Self love....its not selfish its necessary😁 I read a quote...."you owe yourself the love you so freely give unto others" Show urself love guys....its ok to be selfish sometimes
Gold n Hot is the best!!! I’ve been using the flat iron and pressing comb for yrs. it’s my definite go to. Yeah u have to use the pressing comb on human hair. I’ve been wanting Inna for a while now.
Lmao when you looked at the hair and saw the hot comb wasn’t working. Lol... I love your videos! As far as future use with the hot comb, you have to use the back of the Comb and really slow pull through the hair. Meaning the hair strands glide through the teeth of the comb while the hot back of the comb is “pressed” to the hair while you’re pulling through. Which is why they call it “pressing” your hair with a hot comb. You also might want to try the old fashion version that you do on the stove or in burners. Those get hot and will smoke so of course use with caution. I would have switched to the flat iron too though lol... I was like ooooh she getting risky in the new year with that hot comb and that wig! So glad you didn’t burn yourself! Happy New Year 🎊 💃🏻💋
I’m the same way. Told my kids to note make resolutions but goals that you want to achieve in 2018 and makes steps toward each. Also your thumbnail made me click! Just subscribed! Love this look!
That straightening comb is the WORST I made the mistake buying it to straighten my hair. Synthetic or not. It's not for the tight curl type. Love the look.
The back of the hot comb is what straightens the hair not the teeth of the comb and the reason the your ends kept curling up was because the back of the hot comb is you are curving outwards.
Tip...In order to straighten your hair with a hot comb you have to use the back of the comb, the barrel where the teeth meet. Pull the comb thru the hair and slightly bend towards the barrel. I love your channel. The hair is beautiful and so are you! 😘
I've had that straightening comb for years. It works well on natural hair. When you use a straightening comb, you use the back of the comb to straighten the hair, not the teeth. Try it. I think it will work well for you. I love this wig. And as a woman who's lived quite a few years, believe me when I tell you that you are on the right track. LOVE YOURSELF ENOUGH TO TAKE CARE OF YOU FIRST. You can not give someone water from a dry well. You're a bright, beautiful soul. Remember that and you will be fine.
for the hot comb try angling it so that the back of the combs also runs down the hair strands thats what helps to straighten the hair. I wonder if it will get the synthetic wig bone straight like the flat irons.
I have that hot comb it doesn’t really work on my thick hair. Will try it out on one of my old synthetic wigs though. Thanks for the idea. I need that wig😍
great video, great unit, and great advice, so true, that's how I feel too, loving, caring and standing up for yourself don't make you selfish, Ive been dealing with that too, sometimes people take your kindness and love as a weakness, its a shame on them though, we have to put ourselves first though so we can be there for those who really deserve our kindness and love, get rid of those toxic people, that's what I'm doing too! bless you! love that unit!
Very informative!!! I agree with you, 2018 i need to learn to be selfish bc I also put others before myself which cause me to neglect myself in the end. The hair looks bomb straight or curly. Thanks for sharing doll!!! Happy New Year!!! 💙💙💙💙💙
I have the same New Years resolution. I'm going to set more boundaries. Also with work.. I'm always available and never say no to an extra or longer shift. Sometimes working 8-10 days straight. Need to stop with that.🙏🏾
what color is the wig you have? I've never worn a wig in my life. always been natural because my hair is very thick and long, but now Being in the service we dont get many options to "switch it up". i would love to try this $20 wig for for first and only wig.
This wig is beautiful but I always thought hot combs were for getting hair sleek, and flat irons were for straightening? Maybe I've got that backwards, I haven't used either one in years lol
The only issue was how she held the comb. She said she didn't know so cool. The back of the comb straightens or flattens the hair like the flat iron. The hot comb will work with the right touch and finesse. Good video ☺️
I want to know how you got the front to stay down, even with the got to be glued. I've got that annoying piece of fabric too and I can tell it's fake by the way it sticks out even with adding a little glue to it. How did you get yours to look so perfect in the front? Help lol
Best Wig of 2017??
TheBrilliantBeauty DEFINITELY best budget friendly yet poppin' wig
TheBrilliantBeauty girl you are a goat. I live for you

I bought this wig because you did a review on it. Mine has a lil bit of burgundy in it can't wait to wear it thanks so much for the review.😘😘
"if this hair melts, it melts" 😂😂😭 anyone else having flash backs of their mom hot combing their hair? Lol
Dayana Briceus I stg... I am
Dayana Briceus lol
I used to be terrified of the hot comb. 😂😂😩😩
Yesssss!!!! My mama kept that hair grease on her hand while a pressing. Beautician style.. I had to hold them ears 👂🏽🤣🤣

My pleasure. I love your videos and happy new year :-)
Dante Velasquez - Thanks for the TIPS!!! 😊
Thank you very much for the info.
Happy to help. One of my missions is not only to get people to understand the difference between synthetic and human hairs and how they are styled and cared for but also for people to see how useful and practical futura hair can be :-)
Girl, if you're touching the comb and saying it's hot enough, it ain't hot enough 😂
Ari Anator that’s only for natural hair
I literally cringed every time I saw you try to use the hot comb. Felt like I had to hold my ear while watching this 😂😂😂😂😂
LifeaSantana ptsd 😭😭😭
LifeaSantana that’s that ptsd I feel it too
LifeaSantana only the real will understand
LifeaSantana 💀😂😂😂
That wig doesn't even look synthetic it beautiful
Hi Shante Daley, thank you! 😊😁
I love how she went straight to the video. I hate long intros.
FYI When you use the hot comb make sure that the hair is on the rounded part. That's the part that gets the hair straight. Love your videos.💕
When you put it on 500 like it is what it is lol. Love how it smoothed the hair though. These are good for quick fixes. Also, I agree with you on not giving other people power. I so don't want to bring that into 2018!

My mother has that old fashioned hot comb. The one you put on the stove.
Jodi you're so BEAUTIFUL! I LOVE ALL YOUR HAIR STYLES! Great Video!
I had went thru the same thing a few years ago which lead to me feeling depressed a lot. I had to learn how to be selfish too which wasn't easy but I did it! Now I feel better and finally feel like I got control on my life better. I love your tutorials hunny, please keep posting. I wish you all the best.😍😘
Jodi I love your honest personality!

GoldenPurity why give it teeth if we’re not supposed to use them? I remember using these growing up, I never used the back lol
I have had my hair pressed/hot combed as a child for many years and by professionals, GoldenPurity is absolutely correct.
you use the teeth to slide it through, pressing it against the back straightens it as it glides. they work together, she's not saying that it's one or the other
Yes the back straightens the hair. The teeth just keeps it in a straight path hence the comb chaser when you are flat ironing your hair for the silky straight look.

New favorite UA-camr. She makes sure you slay mentally and with your wigs😙💖
Love that you show us wigs and hair products that are affordable and good quality! Thank you so much for that ☺️❤️
I like people like you who dont try to be funny but just are funny without trying lol
Synthetic futura hair doesn't burn its heat safe I wore those back when lace fronts just came out but u bodied that wig with it being synthetic 🙌🏾🙌🏾 its nice to see I'm not the only one balling on a budget lol makes wearing synthetic better especially since u slayed that
Those hot combs work, but that brand you had sucks. Their products never worked for me.
Nic love Which brand is better?
Link and all if you can
Thank you
Nic love thinking about getting one for my natural hair could you tell me which brand you think is best please
I completely agree about looking after yourself ❤ The hair looks beautiful! I'd like to see how it reacts to being recurled after being straightened - haven't seen any videos like this for Inna
Jodi you're so underrated.. love ur vids Hun. The hair looks great on u
You definitely slayed this wig. It is a great look either way but i liked that it has a subtle shine to it when straightened. ❤❤
You're so right about going into your womanhood I just turned 25 on December 21st and MAN! 2017 was a struggle and a eye opener
I love that red lip!!! The hair looks bomb straightened!!!!

Candice Bell
You have to use the back of the comb honey
@candace girl you know grandma taught us.. I would do that to my mom's wigs back in day
The back of the hot comb is what straightens the hair not the teeth of the comb and the reason the your ends kept curling up was because the back of the hot comb is you are curving outwards.
Wow! What a transformation!
I love it!!😍😍😍 awesome job, happy new year.😙
great video! should i wash it first before i wear it ?
I use the pressing brush with oil on heat safe wigs all the time, it softens and straightens very nicely, more humanlike feel.
Tip...In order to straighten your hair with a hot comb you have to use the back of the comb, the barrel where the teeth meet. Pull the comb thru the hair and slightly bend towards the barrel. I love your channel. The hair is beautiful and so are you! 😘

Yeah I need to purchase this wig ASAP lol.

@blackgirlstips led me to you. First video im watching besides the how to make a wig that they posted. But loving you already
I have that hot comb it doesn’t really work on my thick hair. Will try it out on one of my old synthetic wigs though. Thanks for the idea. I need that wig😍
Hold up so we going to act like she didn't just say she's 26?? I swear I thought like 23 at the most
Thing wig when you combed it out though 😍😍👌🏽& when you straightened it too 😍😍
Well damn what a change DAMN GIRL
Most would use the hot comb to get super curly hair straight, but use a blow dryer or flat iron to get it smooth
definitely clicked on this video because you are SO gorgeous
It's already pretty with curls
Selfish!! I said that too for this year for myself too. I feel you 200% 😘
I'm just seeing this in 2019 and ALOT of the things you said was what I needed to hear. I'm currently learning to be selfish
Inna is my favorite.. I'm on my 4th or 5th unit.. it does get a little stiff after like a day or two I've noticed.. after it's straightened.
great video, great unit, and great advice, so true, that's how I feel too, loving, caring and standing up for yourself don't make you selfish, Ive been dealing with that too, sometimes people take your kindness and love as a weakness, its a shame on them though, we have to put ourselves first though so we can be there for those who really deserve our kindness and love, get rid of those toxic people, that's what I'm doing too! bless you! love that unit!

What’s the name of your lipstick? It’s beautiful
Happy New Year!
What lipstick are you wearing? I absolutely love it!
You look like Kesha Sharp🥰🥰 you’re so pretty
what color is the wig you have? I've never worn a wig in my life. always been natural because my hair is very thick and long, but now Being in the service we dont get many options to "switch it up". i would love to try this $20 wig for for first and only wig.
So I really love your spray bottle lol where did you get it from?
Amirah Troupe Sally's sell it.
Will the curls come back after wetting it when u straightening it ?
Wig tutorial was nice.....but hmmmm, what lipstick color are you wearing???? so pretty!
This wig is beautiful but I always thought hot combs were for getting hair sleek, and flat irons were for straightening? Maybe I've got that backwards, I haven't used either one in years lol
The only issue was how she held the comb. She said she didn't know so cool. The back of the comb straightens or flattens the hair like the flat iron. The hot comb will work with the right touch and finesse. Good video ☺️
Please tell us what lipstick that is. It looks phenomenal on you!
Watching her talk about the tribulations of 2017 while watching this in the dumpster fire of 2020.
*0_0*
looks amazing on u and it doesnt even look synthetic i love it and u can straighten it when ur bored with the curled look that pretty fucking cool
I love your videos! Where did you get your lipstick?
Idk if you said how to or not but how would you get it back wavy after straightening it ??
If you want the curls to come back do you need to curl it with heat or can you wash it and the pattern will come back?
lol I was so happy when you grabbed that flat iron. straightening combs scare me.😫😂
Can you do a video on how to make a full cap wig look natural? My friend has one and it just doesn’t look natural at all so can you help us out?
I want to know how you got the front to stay down, even with the got to be glued. I've got that annoying piece of fabric too and I can tell it's fake by the way it sticks out even with adding a little glue to it. How did you get yours to look so perfect in the front? Help lol
Thank you for the video. Would you please share info on the lipstick you are wearing.
Why did this give me flashbacks of days in the kitchen hearing the hot comb sizzling when it made contact to my hair.
