Full lace wigs are wigs that are constructed with a full lace cap that covers the entire head and is made from a fine, sheer material that allows for a natural-looking hairline. Unlike traditional wigs that have a rigid cap, full lace wigs have a cap that can be adjusted to fit the wearer's head perfectly. The cap is made from a stretchy material that conforms to the shape of the head, providing a secure and comfortable fit. Full lace wigs can also be styled in a variety of ways, including updos and braids, which makes them a popular choice for special occasions.
Full lace wigs' natural appearance is one of their main advantages. The cap's delicate, sheer material replicates the appearance of a real scalp, making it difficult to identify the wearer as a wig user. Furthermore individually hand-tied hair produces a more realistic and natural-looking hairline on full lace wigs.
Full lace wigs allow wearers to experiment with various appearances without committing to a long-term change because they are available in a number of lengths, styles, and colors. Both synthetic and human hair can be used to make them, with human hair wigs being the most pricey choice but providing the most realistic appearance and feel.
Here are the steps to apply a full lace wig:
-
Prepare your hair: Before applying the wig, make sure your hair is clean, dry, and flat against your scalp. You can braid your hair or use a wig cap to keep it flat.
-
Prepare the wig: Trim the lace around the perimeter of the wig to match the shape of your hairline. This will make the wig look more natural when it's applied.
-
Apply adhesive: Apply a thin layer of wig adhesive along your hairline. You can use either a liquid adhesive or double-sided tape.
-
Place the wig: Place the wig on your head, starting at the front and working your way back. Adjust the wig so that it's centered on your head and sits comfortably on your hairline.
-
Secure the wig: Once the wig is in place, press down on the lace along the hairline to secure it to the adhesive. Use a comb or your fingers to press the lace firmly against your skin.
-
Style the wig: Once the wig is secure, you can style it as desired using heat styling tools or products.
To remove the wig, gently lift the lace at the front of the wig and slowly peel it back. Use a wig adhesive remover to dissolve any remaining adhesive and remove the wig from your head. Clean the wig with shampoo and conditioner, and store it properly until your next use.
It's important to note that proper application of a full lace wig requires practice and patience. It may take several attempts to get the wig to sit comfortably and look natural on your head. However, with practice and proper care, a full lace wig can provide a versatile and natural-looking hair option.
