How to CARE for Your Lace Front

It is important to always put your wig on using the back or the ear tabs on each side. 
Many people, out of habit, will put their wig on or even adjust it throughout the day using the front lace itself. 
You NEVER want to pull on the lace front, as tugging on the lace will lead to tearing or fraying.

Usually, incorrectly pulling and adjusting a lace front wig could cause the lace front to unravel in mainly one spot, and is about the size of the tip of your finger.

Be careful and avoid using conditioner on your lace front.
Conditioner is meant to detangle and loosen the hand knotting, which can cause strands to eventually shed from your lace front. 
Also, take care not to brush too hard near the lace.



How to SECURE Your Lace Front


This is where proper sizing is so important.
If the wig is too tight or too big, it will shift throughout the day. 
Constant movement will contribute to rubbing and friction.

A lace front glue or tape will help keep your lace front in place. 
 


How to PERSONALIZE Your Lace Front

Makeup such as foundation or powder can help blend the lace with your skin tone. 
This also gives your front hairline a softer finish.

If it is an option, you can pull your own hair forward to blend, or you can cut a few strands shorter along your hairline to give that natural "baby hair" effect.
(Just make sure to have a professional help with any alterations, or experiment on an older style first).

TIP to Avoid Skin Irritation

Rubbing baby powder or dry shampoo on your skin before putting the wig on can help skin irritation.
