Full Lace Front Wig
The full lace front wig look is the most natural and undetectable look available. Full Lace Front Wigs are crafted to maximize breathability and comfort. The special transitional density of the front hairline is done to replicate the natural pattern of growing hair.
Pros:
- Natural parting possible throughout entire unit.
- Versatility (can be worn in updos, and braids).
- Breathable, lightweight and comfortable to wear.
Cons:
- Delicate compared to other bases (most likely will need to be repaired within a year-depending on your usage.)
- Will have to be glued around the entire perimeter for a natural look. Time consuming for daily wearers- not an issue for extended wearers.
