This blog will tell you what you need to do before using a lace wig, how to wear a lace wig correctly and most efficiently, and how to take care of your hair after using it . It is very important for your wig .

PREPARE

1.Test your skin

 

Since some people can be allergic to the chemicals used to secure wigs, be sure to test your skin before using these products.

2.Smooth natural hair

 

To make a wig look natural and easy to wear, you need to make sure your natural hair is flat before wearing it.  You can choose to braid your hair into any flat shape like corn steak.

3.Wear a wig cap or sock cap

 

Wig caps and stocking caps are soft , and help flatten your hair while helping to hold it in place. You can gently pull up the wig cap or long hair cap, being careful not to mess up your braided hair.  Make sure your wig cap or sock cap is above, not over, your hairline . If you have little or no hair, you can skip this step altogether, as the wig cap or sock cap can wiggle around your head and interfere with the rest of your work .

Always clean your skin with a mild cleanser before wearing a wig or applying glue, then dry with a towel. There will be excess oil on the skin, so you can apply some rubbing alcohol and rub it along your hairline.  

 

Applying

 

1.Test wig size

 

Before fixing your wig, you need to make sure your wig is the right size.  Align the wig with the natural hairline, and if there is an adjustment band inside the wig, adjust the adjustment band to fit your head so that the wig fits on your head.

 

2.Trimmed lace

 

If your wig is the right size for your head, you need to start trimming the lace. This step is very important and will directly affect how realistic your wig looks. Use a couple of tongs to push the excess hair behind your head, then use sharp scissors to trim the lace along the hairline, leaving about 3mm of lace .

 3.Use a liquid adhesive

 

Use a clean brush to apply evenly along the hairline and wait a few minutes for the gel to dry before wearing the wig.  The amount of time you'll need to wait depends on the adhesive you're using.

 

4.Apply the wig

 

The wig can be worn after the previous work is done . First you need to adjust the edge of the wig so that it matches your hairline so that it looks like your natural hair. Then you need to attach the lace edge of the wig to the wig band or liquid glue.  Make sure the wig is perfectly aligned with your head before doing this, as the lace edge will be difficult to remove once it comes into contact with the glue.  Finally, you can use wide-tooth combs, wig brushes and other products to comb your hair and create the look you want.
