How To Make A Lace Closure Wigs Last Longer

  • April 23, 2021 6:00 AM EDT

    So many people are facing hair loss today because of so many reasons. These include general alopecia, trichotillomania, stress, alopecia totalis, genetics or chemotherapy. If you have one of these issues, you have surely heard of hair replacement options like the Closure Wig .

     

    Wondering how to make a wig with Lace Closure Wigs ?  You can make one by using a thin lace as the base where individual hairs will be attached. You have to leave out the lace in the front as well as around the perimeter. This can be glued or taped to the perimeter and forehead for an impression that the hair is naturally growing out of your scalp.

     

    You will also find “lace closures” and “HD Lace Frontal” that are partial lace pieces that you can use with different extension methods like fusion, weaving, glue or bonding.

     

    How To Make A Lace Closure Wig Last Longer

    Pre washing - gently remove the tangles (if any) from the wig before shampooing. Always apply a mild shampoo or one that is specially formulated for your chemically treated wig

     

    Shampooing - never soak because this will cause the hair to tangle. When you think your hair is completely wet, apply a little amount of shampoo with your fingers and evenly distribute it all throughout the hair.

     

    Washing – run your hair under warm water and see to that the water is not hot but warm. Gently let the shampoo enter into the hair by stroking downwards. Start from the top and finish to the ends without twisting, scrubbing or rubbing the hair.  

     

    Combing - gently comb your hair to get rid of tangles while the hair is still wet. You can use a large toothed comb but never use any bristle brush on the wet hair because this could break or pull out the hair.

     

    Rinsing – if yours is a 100% human hair silk base wig, you can rinse it under a stream of cold water to remove any remains of the shampoo or the suds. In order to avoid the occurrence of tangling, make sure that the cold water flows from the hair cap to the hair ends. Then blot with your towel to remove any excess water.

     

    Conditioning – apply a little amount of conditioner with your fingers and evenly distribute it all throughout the hair

     

    Drying – you can hang the Upart wig with closure to air dry, or set it in rollers, or even use your blow dryer on low settings.
