- What is a lace front wig?
- A lace front wig is similar to a regular wig along the back and sides of the unit. The front is made with a thin lace that extends from ear to ear across the hairline. The lace will be long when you initially receive your wig. You will cut some of the lace along the front of the unit creating a hairline. You can cut off all the lace and wear the unit without adhesives or you can leave some of the lace and apply adhesive to the lace. This is a good alternative if you are looking for a temporary hairstyle.
