Lace front wig Vs lace part wig

Today we are going to compare lace front wigs to lace part wigs, what are the differences between lace front wigs and lace part wigs, why you might choose one, or the other, or a mixture of both. 

What is the lace front wig?

A lace front wig is a wig with a lace piece at the hairline. The lace part of lace front wigs can be a kind of harder French lace (a little bit scratchy) or softer Swiss lace which will blend into your hairline a little bit better. The lace front wig can create a realistic visual effect that is just like the hair are growing from your natural scalp. After gluing, the lace front is invisible and you can tidy the simulated realistic baby hair around the front.

The lace front is meant to blend in with your natural hairline so that it does look more natural than a wig without a lace front hairline. So in the front, you can see a little bit of lace and they can be in different ways: ear to ear lace; or free parting lace, which is a larger section so that you can part it anywhere. And you can see the baby hair in the front is hand-tied, so they're very natural and exquisite. The lace front commonly comes in sizes: 13x4, 13x5, 13x6, 4x4, 5x5, etc, it's customized.

What is the lace parting wig?
