How To Choose The Best Closure Lace Wigs For You?

Wigs come in all shapes and forms to accommodate the vast number of people that use them. Perhaps one of the most common types of wig is the lace closure wig, which is often more preferred than silk frontals. But why do people prefer lace wigs? And how can you get one for yourself? This article will answer both of these questions. 

Why get lace wigs?

Lace wigs come with a thin and soft lace head cap, which gives you a comfortable experience when you wear them. This lace is well-ventilated and looks natural like your real scalp. This type of wig is perfect when you want simple hairstyles like middle and side parting. Unlike curly headband wigs, lace wigs have a natural front and look better when using your baby hair. 

What makes closure lace wigs a popular option among women is how time-saving it is. You can easily wear this wig type without worrying about any damage to your natural hair. Made with human hair (which is sewed into the lace) the wig doesn’t get knotted easily and can last longer when maintained properly. 

Things to consider when buying lace wigs?

Here are three important factors to take into account when buying lace wigs: 

1. Types of lace wigs

Lace wigs, like most other variants, come in different shapes, sizes and textures. When it comes to coverage, there are three main types of lace wigs: 4x4, 5x5, and 6x6 lace closure wigs, where the first number represents the length across (left-right) and the second number represents the length from back to the forehead.

When it comes to the make or shape of the wig, there are multiple variants, including 360 wigs, full lace wigs, transparent wigs, HD lace wigs, and artificial scalp wigs. The difference between these types is limited to the amount and type of lace used for the wig cap. 

2. Remy/non-Remy hairs

The next thing to consider is if the lace wig has Remy hair or non-Remy hair. For the uninitiated, Remy hair wigs have human hair with damaged cuticles. But they result in natural and shiny-looking wigs that can be retained even after multiple washes.

Non-Remy hair, on the other hand, don’t have any roots. Wigs with such hair often have a dry, straw-like texture, which is covered by a layer of silicon for the shiny look. However, this layer comes right off once you wash the wig.

3. Inner headgear

Most wigs have inner headgear, also known as wig caps. In lace wigs, the headgear is made of lace. These are usually breathable, but sometimes they are not. So, when buying wigs ensure the headgear has good air permeability. 

Conclusion

Lace hair wigs are comfortable to wear and offer a natural look, making them a popular choice among many. These differ based on the coverage and the lace used to make the head cap. Therefore, when buying these, it is important to consider the hair type and wig closures.
