Will it be a full lace wig or do you stick with the hair extensions you
know and love?
That is the question many of our clients are asking. The answer is
"whatever you are most comfortable wearing is the best thing for
you". Having said that we thought it would be nice to give you as much
information as possible to make this decision as easy as possible.
Lace Wigs
Pros:
·
Application and removal of the Lace
Wig can be done yourself
·
You can part your hair anywhere you
want including down the centre and put it up in a high ponytail

No excessive itching...so you can put
away the rat tail comb.

Your head can breathe through the wig
so your hair will dry quickly.
·
Since each hair is hand tied the hair
will move in a natural way

You don't feel or see any tracks

higher initial cost for a lace wig, you save money by replying the unit
yourself.

style you are wearing. You can have bangs one day, pulled back the next

since it is all hidden under the wig...it gets a well needed break

There is good and bad in every
product, the best thing is to properly educate yourself not only on the good
but more so on the bad so you fully understand the nature of the product you
are purchasing.
If you don't see yourself giving up your extensions but want the versatility of
the Lace Wig, opt for a Full Lace Closure. It gives you the versatility of
a lace wig, allowing you to pull your hair back; have bangs one day or have a
part the next... and you can keep the security of your beloved extensions at
the back.
If you Love the versatility of the Full Lace Wig but want the added security of
Hair extensions opt for sewing your lace wig to tracks. Braid your hair as
usual but instead or using adhesive to secure your unit leave a little of your
hair out around the hairline and sew the wig to the track around the
circumference of your head. You now don’t have to worry about reapply adhesive
or fixing it if it begins to lift.
The more you know the better
decisions will you will make and the less disappointment you will experience.
