2. Try lace front wigs

A lace front wig has a thin piece of lace mesh in front of the wig cap. The lace front is invisible, covering the front of the wig cap from temple to temple. It has hand-tied by hand to the lace in a uniform way, and most lace fronts are in a precut condition. It is made to look like your skin and create an illusion of a natural hairline. So while you are walking in the street, those who pass you can hardly find out you are wearing lace front wigs.

3. Choose a 100% human hair wig

Hairs on a wig can be made of synthetic materials or human hair. A human hair wig looks much more natural than a synthetic one. You can style or color it based on your ideas. So we strongly suggest you choose a wig 100% made of human hair.

4. Wear your wig appropriately

Before you put on your wig, you need to prepare your wig cap first. The only purpose of doing this is to hide your real hair from the wig cap. You should braid the hair and put it flat on your head so that your wig looks realistic.

  • Use some hair spray to hold the hair in place, and you can also use a small clip to achieve your goal.
  • Next, wear the wig with glue and adjust it until it is a perfect fit on each side.
  • Last, secure your wig to make sure it will not fall or move.

When you have fun chatting with your friends outdoors, you don’t want it to fly away due to a sudden strong wind. If you are not sure if your technique is perfect, we recommend seeking help from a professional hairstylist.

5. Blend your wig with your real hairline

A lance front wig is good at imitating a natural hairline, but it also takes you some effort. You can use a little dry shampoo to blend your real hairline with a lace front wig. Try to make everything together. It could be a little longer because you need to adjust the front and back of the wig to line up with your hairline.

However, everything is worth it when you look at yourself in the mirror with a “new real hairstyle”. Of course, this trick can work only when the color of your lace front wig looks almost the same as your real hair color.

6. Make your wig look imperfect

Perfect is not perfect. As we know, most hairs on the lace front wig are made by machine. They are strangely tidy, well-distributed and almost in the same length. Everything is so perfect as if it should not have existed in the world.

So think about what our bio hair is like. It is a little messy, of various lengths and even missing a small part. So we can adjust it by plucking out some of them, cutting a few short or putting a couple of hairs on the “wrong” side of the part. Then I promise you will have a more natural lace front wig than before.

7. Get a haircut and color your wig

When you buy a new wig home, you may find it unreal due to its unusual tidiness and only one flat color. A professional and trustworthy stylist can help you to trim it.

Before he works on it, you had better share with him your preference and expectations. Otherwise, people around you will easily find the your “new hairstyle” doesn’t assemble your usual ones. Then at some point soon, they are bound to find out your little “secrets”.

Besides, most of us have shades of color and gradients. Make the root hair darker and the tip lighter can be helpful.

8. Take care of your wig

Since we often use our wig, proper maintenance is necessary for it. We can wash our lace front human hair wig every 1- 2 weeks. There is no need to wash it every time after you use it. When you wash it, you should use cold or warm water and a little high-quality shampoo. After that, it is better to spray some human hair wig conditioner on it and leave it for no more than 5 minutes. Then let it air dry without using any electronic dryer.

What is more, human hairs of a wig are easily worn out or rubbed. We should find a special place without too much stuff to store it. By doing these, it may look natural and keep functioning longer than we expect.
