Making the Most of Your Front Hair Wig
While lace front human hair wigs don’t offer as much styling versatility as their full lace counterparts, you can still achieve a wide variety of classic and contemporary looks. Updos and ponytails are out of the question with front lace wigs, but the rest of the hair styling repertoire is fair game. One of the trickier aspects of styling a front lace wig is achieving an undetectable part.
Since the lace only covers the front of the wig, it’s literally impossible to have a part that runs the full length of the scalp. This means you’ll have to resort to partial parts. If your scalp or natural hair is drastically different in color from the wig, the part will be quite noticeable. In these instances, try wearing a stocking or skullcap to make the contrast less conspicuous.
The Convenience of Lace Front Wigs
For years I struggled to find a hairstyle that was stylish and convenient to no avail. Either I neglected my hair, in which case I ended up looking like Don King, or I’d spend three to four hours getting ready everyday. Eventually I grew tired of this routine and decided to solve the problem once and for all by shaving my head completely.
This may seem drastic, but I don’t go around town with a shorn scalp. Instead, I’ve invested in several lace front wigs, which is one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. Each wig costs about as much as a trip to the salon, but instead of spending hours getting ready each day, I simply put the wig on and walk out the door.
Full Lace Wigs v. Front Lace Wigs
One of the main things to consider when purchasing a new wig is whether to go with a full lace wig or a front lace wig. With a full lace wig, the entire cap is made from lace. This allows for multi-directional parting and a myriad of hairstyles, including updos and ponytails. When parting your wig however, you should use a stocking or wig cap that matches your skin color.
A front lace wig, on the other hand, only has lace in the front of the cap, with the rest of the wig consisting of a netted wig cap. This limits the number of styles you can achieve with a lace front wig, but they have their advantages. Because they only have lace on a portion of the wig, front lace wigs are much cheaper than their counterparts.
