What is a Lace Front Wig?
A lace front wig is one of the most popular types of wigs because it gives a realistic, natural-looking hairline — making it almost impossible to tell you’re wearing a wig.
Here’s a breakdown of what it is and why people love it:
👑 What Is a Lace Front Wig?
A lace front wig has a lace mesh panel at the front of the wig, usually from ear to ear. Individual hair strands are hand-tied onto this lace, creating the appearance that hair is growing directly from your scalp.
The rest of the wig cap is usually made of a sturdier material with wefts sewn in for volume and durability.
💡 How It Works
When applied correctly, the lace blends seamlessly with your skin. You can part the hair anywhere along the lace area and style it freely, giving you versatile looks — from middle parts to side parts, ponytails, or half-up styles.
