Ask the Pro10 Ambassador Stylist: What’s a lace front wig?

No Bad Hair Days Blog reader Dee asks: What’s a lace front wig?

Pro 10 Ambassador Stylist O’kela Neveaux says: A lace front wig is a wig that gives the appearance of a natural hair line. They were originally made for use in theater. Then they became popular for people with hair and scalp disorders and cancer patients now they’ve become trendy because they provide such a natural look.

First, your own hair is braided down. Then the wig cap can be sewn to the braids. Finally strands of your own hair can be hand-tied to the the thin lace cap, which has been either glued or taped on. This procedure can give you completely natural-looking hair line area and wide range of styling options. You can even give the appearance of fine baby hair at the hairline, adding to the natural look.
