To make your install look like it’s growing straight from your scalp, the secret is all in the prep work. If you want Front Lace Wigs to look truly natural, you have to start by thinning out the hairline. Most factory units come with a density that is way too thick, so grabbing a pair of tweezers and carefully plucking the edges creates that soft, graduated transition you see on a real hairline. With some patience, you will learn the difference between a "wiggy" appearance and a seamless, melted look. After you put the wig on, focus on the lace.

One of the best things you can do to help the overall look of the wig is to bleach the knots on the lace. This is a big help because it will hide any of the little black dots where hair has been tied by hand. If you want to hurry, using a little lace tint or even using a little of your foundation pressed powder into the mesh will work really well to make the lace match your skin tone as closely as possible.

When you finally lay it down, use a melting band to press the lace into your skin while the adhesive sets. High-quality Front Lace Wigs are designed to lay flat, but using a hot comb to press the top will really get rid of any unnatural bulk. These small tweaks turn a standard unit into a flawless, realistic style.
