Share
It is no secret that lace front wigs are among the best wigs in the market today. So if you are looking for the perfect wig to rock, look no further than the lace front wig. That’s because this wig is very natural-looking, durable, and beautiful. One of the best ways you can enhance your lace wig’s beauty is by plucking it.
Wig plucking has been around for a very long time. Hairstylists have been doing it for quite some time to achieve a natural look for their clients. However, some wigs come pre-plucked, saving wig-wearers time. These pre-plucked lace wigs have thin hairlines, giving the impression of a natural hairline.
How to pluck your lace front wig?
Step 1: Put your lace front wig on a mannequin head
Once you have bleached your lace front wig and dried it completely, put it on a mannequin head. Use the pins to secure it. This ensures that your wig will stay in place and not slide off when you start plucking it.
Run the comb through the frontal part of the hair to get rid of any knots and tangles. Next, apply a bit of mousse to the hairline. This makes the tweezing process much easier.
Step 2: Start plucking your lace front wig
Finally, we have reached where you have been waiting for – how to pluck your lace front wig. Get a pair of the best tweezers for the best results. Start plucking some hairs from one side and work your way to the other. Be sure not to pluck too many hairs. Part the hair on your lace front wig in two sections and take your tweezers and start plucking the hairline towards you to get a more natural look.
Step 3: Create your part
All lace front wigs are not created equal. Some come with a pre-made part down the middle, to the side, with multiple parts, or with no parting at all [also referred to as a free part].
With a free part lace front wig, you will be able to choose where you want your part to lay and then create it. You can do this before you create the full wig or after. Play around with the parting to get an elegant and trendy look.
Step 4: Create natural edges
Adjust your transparent lace wig accordingly. Don’t forget the baby hairs. To achieve this, you need to separate a small section of the hair from the hairline that you would want to use as baby hairs. Use a razor to cut the hair down until the hair is at your desired baby hair length.
