French Or Swiss Lace For Lace Front Wigs?

Here are some tips which will help you decide which lace material will work best for you:

Swiss Lace is

  • Fine, delicate, sheer material and must be handled with care to prevent damage
  • This type of lace can easily be torn or ripped due to its texture
  • It is NOT recommended for first time wearers, for those who are more active or who will remove the lace wig frequently
  • Once the lace is damaged you will have to have your unit repaired or by another lace wig

French Lace is

  • Slightly thicker and more durable than Swiss Lace
  • French Lace wigs last longer than Swiss Lace wigs because they can with stand more wear and tear
  • The knots are not hidden by the lace, but bleached knots are used to give the lace an extremely undetectable look. Bleached knots are used to create an illusion of hair growing from the scalp.

Although both types of lace are virtually undetectable, French Lace is more durable than Swiss Lace wigs. If you do however choose to go with the Swiss Lace, I would advise you take your lace wig to a professional for washing and cleaning.

Speaking from personal experience, I find that I prefer French Lace wigs because with Swiss the lace tends to unravel and begin to look rugged at the hairline.

Our in-stock wig selection consists of 100% Indian Remy Human Hair and we use French Lace due to its durability. You are more than welcome to customize your order where you can select Swiss Lace as an option if you prefer the more delicate sheer material.

My interests in lace wigs has grown over the years and I find that you can never learn enough techniques and tips when it comes to applying lace front wigs. If you are interested in purchasing Quality Indian Remy Full Lace Wigs please visit http://www.exoticwigs.com. Exotic Wigs focuses more on developing quality wigs rather than quantity!

Lace Front Vs Full Lace Wigs

Lace Wigs have been around for years, however it wasn’t until a few years ago when celebrities such as Beyonce, Lil Kim and Tyra Banks began wearing lace wigs that their popularity soared. Before you knew it, the everyday modern woman began wearing lace wigs. We saw it as a way to quickly change our appearance, break free from hair weaves and increase our sex appeal naturally without spending ridiculous money and harming our hair.

It’s been said that celebrities were paying thousands of dollars to design their full lace wigs, however because lace wigs were introduced into the popular and urban cultures they became a hot commidity! Lace wigs are now a MUST have and every woman should own at least one lace front or full lace wig!

Lace Front Wigs are wigs in which swiss or french lace is attached to the front of the wig to give the client a natural hair line after the lace is cut. The hair which is attached to the lace in the front is normally handtied onto the wig. The back of the wig is normally machine wefted. Lace front wigs allow you to freely style the front of the lace (for example you can apply a part in the center or sides) Most lace front wigs come with wig combs above the ear and in the nape area and a adjustable strap to ensure better fit. Because the wig combs are in place you have the option to glue/tape the wig down (for more security) or do not apply glue. I’ve done it both ways and I prefer not to use glue when the wig combs are in place.  These wigs are relatively cheaper. Lace front wigs are for clients who do want to wear high sytles such as ponytails and who have an active lifestyle. The advantages of  lace front wigs are; easier to self apply and remove for woman who do not wish to leave it own for periods at a time. Disadvantages are that you can not wear up do’s.

Full Lace Wigs have swiss or french lace which is attached along the perimeter of the wig. The advantage of full lace wigs give the client a natural hair line in the front and back. The hair can be freestyled in up do’s as well. Normally full lace wigs do not have wig combs or adjustable straps because they are glued or taped down to ensure their security. We give you the option to add wig combs if you wish to have them in place for extra security.  These wigs are entirely handtied. Full lace wigs also normally cost more than lace front wigs.

Can Full/Front Lace Wigs Damage Your Hair?

Front/Full Lace Wigs have become extremely popular within society and the entertainment business. Women are now wearing them on a constant and daily basis, however the idea of lace wigs have some women worried about their hair line.

Can Lace Wigs damage your hair? The question is yes and no. It depends on your application (how you apply and remove the wig.) If you snatch the wig up without applying any type of remover to loosen the glue or tape there will be hair damage. Here are some do’s and don’t when it comes to lace wig applications in order to prevent hair damage:

Do’s:

  1. Keep your hair cornbraided or wrapped
  2. Apply a stocking cap or wig cap (preferably the color of your skin tone) to prevent the lace wig from applying friction to your hair
  3. You may or may not want to apply glue or tape to where you would like your hairline to start (this is totally up to you) but if you do apply these substances ensure you do not apply the glue or tape directly onto your hair
  4. You may also want to apply a skin protector (liquid band aid works) so the skin where the glue or tape will be applied does not get irritated or damaged.
  5. To remove the glue/tape I recommend using a remover such as C-22 Solvent (this stuff works wonders and loosens the glue in amount 3 minutes-no combing or rubbing required)
  6. Do remove the lace wig and shampoo and condition your hair as usual, don’t forget to apply essential oils to your scalp
  7. Do allow your hair to breathe for a few hours without the wig on if your just laying around the house

Dont’s:

  1. Do not snatch/tug the wig from your hairline. This can cause skin and hair damage.
  2. Do not pull the hair this can add stress to the front of your hairline where the wig is applied
  3. Do not wear lace wigs for a long period of time without treating your hair
  4. Try to refrain from getting the lace wig completely wet as this can cause your hair to smell and mildrew underneath

Here is my story….I have worn lace front and full lace wigs on a daily basis for over a year now. My hair has grown healthy and long since wearing the wigs. I do not have to process (perm/texturize) my hair as I normally would have had to. Now I texturize my hair twice a year instead of every 6-8 weeks. Wearing the lace wigs also protect my hair and I do less styling and heat damage. Visit http://www.exoticwigs.com for all of your lace wig and weaving needs!

I am the founder and CEO of Exoticwigs.com. Once I discovered my passion and addiction to lace wigs I decided to write about, sell and inspire other Divas to get to know this hair trend and share the experience. Exoticwigs.com stands for Grade A 100% Human Hair, quality and great customer service!

9 Steps to Trim a Lace Front Wigs:

  1. Braiding or wrapping hair allows the wig to sit on your head evenly. Wrap hair around the head with a brush or comb. Cover the hair with a wig cap to avoid aggravation from the wig base, causing further breakage to your hair.
  2. Place the lace wigs on your head. Adjust the wig until it comfortably fits your head. Brush the hair with a wig brush to detangle.
  3. Adjust the lace front wigs until it fits on your head perfectly.
  4. Secure the lace so that it rests flat on the forehead. Make sure the lace wigs base is even with your natural hair line.
  5. Place a ruler against the lace in a vertical position. Start on the left side of the lace where the wig hair and lace meet. Place a small dot with a pen at the 1/8 inch or 1/4 inch of the lace front. The extra length is left to prevent loss of the hair line if the lace begins to fray and needs to be cut off.
  6. Repeat Step 5 until you reach the end of the lace. Connect the dots with a line across the lace front.
  7. Take the wig off. Remove loose strands from the lace front. Lay the wig down on the table.
  8. Cut the lace with scissors along the line you created with the dots. Do not leave pen marks on the lace.
  9. Use adhesive hair glue to glue the leftover lace onto your head. Cover with make-up if needed.

7 Steps to Cut the Lace Wigs:

  1. Find the center of the front of the lace wigs and slide the thin hair clip vertically to mark the position. There should be two even lace pieces on each side of the clip.
  2. Clip the hair on either side of the center-marking clip back using the two large hair clips. This will keep any stray hairs from being cut.
  3. Cut away about a quarter-inch of the lace all around the front and sides of the wig. Do this using long, fluid scissor strokes to avoid jagged edges. It is best to cut away small portions of lace instead of all of it at once, since cutting away too much lace will ruin the wig.
  4. Remove the center-marking clip. Keep the hair clipped back, adjusting the clips as necessary.
  5. Cut the lace back towards the beginning of the hairline in the front. The lace that is on the forehead will be the most visible, so it should be cut back all the way to the hairline. Pull the lace tight with your fingers while cutting to ensure even, smooth strokes.
  6. Trim the sides of the lace front wigs so that only about an eighth-inch of lace protrudes out from under the hairline. It is not necessary to cut the lace all the way back on the sides, since this part is not as visible as the forehead area.

Full Lace Wigs – Tips and Tricks

a) Tips and Tricks for Liquid Bonding Adhesives:

Below, a list of helpful tips to help you achieve the strongest and most secure bond possible.

When applying the liquid adhesive, only use thin, even coats. If you are using a brush, use a paint movement with your hand in both directions – horizontal and vertical. If more adhesive is desired, use thin multiple coats, but make sure the previous coat is dry before applying the next coat.

Never try to apply liquid bond directly to a lace system. Instead, apply it on your scalp and place the unit on your head. Always clean and prepare your scalp properly, with skin shield before attaching your full lace wig. Skin shield is a product,that provides a protective barrier against dermal irritation,while enhancing the effectiveness of skin-safe liquid or tape adhesives.

After showering or working out, the bond of your full lace wig will seem like it is weakening, which is expected, then even if your hair system is still attached securely, the bond will soften a bit, due to extra heat and moisture, do not touch the unit then, because as your body cools, the bond will harden again.

Airborne dust, make-up will attach itself to the adhesive in the front and side edges of lace units and may become visible over time. Immediately after a shower is the easiest time to clean this area because the hairpiece adhesive is pliable. Spray a liberal amount of Adjust-a-Bond on the tip of a double folded tissue. Hold your hair back with one hand and wipe the edge of the lace using the saturated tissue with the other hand.
This trick will help keep your lace front and side edges invisible at all times.

b) Tips and Tricks to avoid shedding

Below, a list of helpful tips to avoid excessive shedding.

Some light shedding is normal, however, your full lace wig should not shed anymore then our own hair would.

DO NOT put any hair products that contain a high percentage of alcohol (like some hair spray, spritz, etc…) directly into the hair of your full lace wig. These products will damage the hair and cause excessive shedding).

When going to sleep wearing your full lace wig, always braid up the hair or at least put it in a pony tail so it will not tangle up, while you sleep. Best is for you to wrap a scarf around your head or to wear a hair bonnet, while you are asleep,(see below section: Tips and Tricks to avoid damages while sleeping). This will prevent the hair of your full lace wig from breakage and shedding.

When swimming wearing your full lace wig, keep in mind that chlorine, and salt water can damage the hair of the unit, therefore wear a swim cap or wash your full lace wig after each swim session. NEVER let chlorine and/or salt water stay in the hair of your full lace wig,as it will damage the hair of your unit irreversibly.

Reseal the knots located on the inside of your full lace wig cap, after each and every wash, with some knot sealer. This will strengthen the knots on each hair strand and protect your full lace wig from excessive shedding.

c) Tips and Tricks for Curly, Deep Wave and Wavy Styles

Below, a moisturizer tip for Full lace wigs with a Curly, Deep Wave, Wavy Style.

Wash and rinse your full lace wig gently but thoroughly, then spray until saturation, with a,1/4 Dove Moisturizing Conditioner, 1/4 of Glycerin and 2/4 plain water mixture*. Using a loop brush, brush it into shape. Cover your full lace wig with a hair net, and let it dry on top of a wig head. Once dry and you begin to wear it, you spray lightly with above mixture every 2-3 days or as needed. This will restore the initial shape, bounce and shine of the curls and/or the waves.

*1/3 of Sunsilk Captivating Curls Lotion, 1/3 of glycerin and 1/3 of plain water mixture.

d) Tips and Tricks for a long-lasting full lace wig

The key factor in full lace wig care and maintenance, is to understand that your full lace wig is made of human hair, that is approximately 4 years old. Since hair grows on average a half inch per month, one year equates out to 6 inches. So since on the average 24 inches long hair is used to make a 20 inch unit, it is safe to say, that the hair of your unit has been exposed to the elements a minimum of 4 years, and now that hair has been removed from its nutrient source, to be made into your fabulous full lace wig, care and maintenance become that hair life support.

Five main tools are required to properly care for your full lace wig: Shampoo, Conditioner, a rake, your pillow case and your hair wrap. These are the 5 key players and unfortunately not all options are created equally.

A good rule of thumb for shampoo or conditioner is that if it costs between $10.00 and $20.00 for 8.5 oz then you have the right stuff. Since the shampoo and conditioner are keys to protecting the hair natural oils, these are two items that you will be best to invest into.

Beyond washing your unit, you are going to style it and that is where the Rake comes in. Brushes and combs provide too much tension on the hair and will cause breakage and shedding. Use a Rake or even a Pick and toss the brush and comb and you will reduce greatly the tension put on the hair and the knots while styling your unit and therefore your full lace wig will last longer.

e) Tips and Tricks to avoid damages of your full lace wig while sleeping

Below a tip that is essential when asleep while wearing your hair unit

If you are wearing your full lace wig to bed, you must choose to follow those sleep habits, to avoid damaging the hair of your unit.

Use a wrap. Having the hair wrapped in a satin or silk wrap will reduce frictions on your unit when you move your head in your sleep. Also use a pillow case in satin or silk. The key here is that the pillow case MUST be the same material as your wrap. If your hair is wrapped in satin, have a satin pillow case. If the hair is wrapped in silk, have a silk pillow case. This will reduce greatly the tension and resistance between the two fabrics, avoid the occasional breakage and allows the hair to remain protected, while you sleep.

f) Tips and Tricks for cold temperature

Below, a tip to keep the hair of your full lace wig beautiful and strong

Cold temperature, specially dry cold weather can damage, tangle and in some cases damage your hair unit irreversibly. Luckily, there are fantastic products on the market that can protect your hair from harsh drying climates. Hair Conditioning treatments, Hair Damage Repair kit , are an excellent for replenishing and protecting the hair of your full lace wig. Whichever brand your choose to use on your hair unit, it is ESSENTIAL that you make sure, that the product is free from alcohol.

Whenever the hair of your full lace wig is a bit dry or if you want to ensure it will be protected from the elements follow these simple steps:

1. Remove hair unit and wash gently.
2. Apply a Hair Damage Repair or another high end conditioning treatment formulated for hair moisture replenishment. Do NOT use protein enriched conditioners.
3. Put your full lace wig in a plastic bag and place in a warm area of your home. Do NOT microwave or apply direct heat, as it will damage your unit.
4. Allow the bag to sit for 24 hours, then remove and rinse hair thoroughly in lukewarm water and allow to air dry.
If you are wearing your hair unit full time, repeat this process every three weeks. Beware! There is a such thing as too much moisture and you want to maintain the human hair average natural ph levels as much as possible.
