Front lace wigs are some of the most popular wigs for African American Women. Why? They are the most natural-looking. In fact, our favorite celebrities who wear wigs – like Tyra Banks and Beyonce.
So, why do these front lace wigs look so natural? Well, first of all, let it be said that full lace wigs look even more natural than front lace wigs – which can be styled in many different ways and even worn up in ponytails without looking like a wig. This is because the lace front wigs human hair of full lace wigs are individually tied to the lace.
When hairs are individually tied to the lace, they can be placed perfectly. They can fall naturally. And the lace blends right in with your scalp, so your scalp can show through, making the wigs look even more natural. In fact, that is one of the reasons that many women prefer front lace wigs – because of the natural hairlines they create.
In fact, some of the more expensive human hair lace wigs have baby hairs tied into the front of the wig – these are the hairs that we sometimes do not want when we are not wearing a wig, but they are the hairs that, when added, make the wigs look most natural.
To fully attach the African American front lace wig to her head, a woman can apply a wig-specific liquid adhesive just around the perimeter of her hairline – it should not touch her hair. Some use adhesive tapes (again, specifically designed for use with wigs). These work especially well for women who are bald (because of chemotherapy, etc.) Instead of adhesive, some women may simply clip the wig to their naturally growing hair.
Of course, you must realize that African American front lace wigs do cost more. After all, it can take a wigmaker many hours to tie each hair to the lace and to style it. Also, many front lace wigs are made with 100% human hair which can be more expensive.
