Wigs

Lace front wigs have been around in the show business for many years already; but this hair fashion has reached out to the ordinary masses just recently. A few years back, they were very expensive; with prices that start at $3000 and above and only the rich and famous could afford them. However, it is good to know that over time, the prices of lace wigs have become affordable and now we can all have the chance to wear beautiful virgin hair like the stars do.

Many people, especially women, love lace front wigs because they are better and more comfortable than ordinary wigs. Why? It is simply because of the invisible, mesh lace that is used to attach the wig from the front or hairline of the user. The lace is trimmed and tailored-fit and is glued to the skin along the hairline. When attached properly, the lace is unnoticeable as it blends well with the skin. However, it is good to note the difference between a lace front wig and full lace wig. The hairs in a full lace wig can be separated in any part of the wig; in a lace front wig, the hairs can be parted in a certain portion in the front only.

Kinds of Lace

There are 2 types of mesh lace used for lace wigs; they are the Swiss and French laces. The Swiss lace is very fragile and fine that it is hard to notice it on the skin. Alternatively, French lace is stronger and more durable but it is not as invisible as the Swiss lace. But whatever type of lace you choose, you can still dye it for a more natural blend with the color of your skin. It is very important that you choose a lace color that rightly matches your skin tone.

Why Are They So Popular

Lace front wigs are so trendy nowadays because they can be styled the way we do with our real hair. They can be braided, curled, clipped in a ponytail, or let loose. Moreover, you can go swimming or shower while using them and be on the go without worries. This kind of flexibility is the best thing about lace wigs and the main reason why most users prefer it over other types of wigs. One more good thing is its easy maintenance. With regular and thorough brushing, shampooing, and conditioning, your lace front wig should last long.

Choosing Your Lace Wig

There are ready-to-wear lace front wigs that you can buy off the shelves but if you have the extra budget, you can order a customized one that will suit your preferences and give you a more natural appearance. In choosing your wig, always take into consideration the contour of your face so that you will really look your best with it.
