Is a Lace Closure Wig a Better Option?

When considering the various types of hairpieces, you might wonder, "Is a lace-closure wig a better option?" The answer is a resounding yes! Lace-closure wigs are very comfortable, versatile, and durable compared to some other wig styles. They're also significantly less expensive than other options. Here are some of the pros and cons of lace-closure wigs.

Less expensive

There are a few key differences between lace closure and frontal wigs. Closure wigs are less expensive but are not as natural-looking as front lace wigs because if you pull the hair back the lace does not cover the entire front hairline from ear to ear. The lace on these wigs typically covers the area from eyebrow to eyebrow only. Although styling options are more flexible than with other wig types like no lace wigs, closure wigs still have their limitations. Frontal Wigs, on the other hand, have a lot more styling options because the lace goes from ear to ear. 

Closure Wigs can come with 4x4 inch lace, 5x5 inch, and sometimes up to 7x7 inch lace. However, the 4x4 inch size is the most popular one and is easy to find. For the other sizes, you may need to have them custom-made. Since they come in different lace measurements, choosing a larger lace size may be a better option for you if you want maximum flexibility. The bigger the lace, the more flexibility you will have when styling.

These wigs are a great option if you are on a tight budget and still want to look as natural as possible. If you are not planning to wear your entire hairline pulled back or in a ponytail, they are an excellent budget-friendly option. 

More comfortable

Lace closure wigs are easier to wear and provide just as natural an appearance as Lace Front Wigs at the center-front area of the hairline. They are also very comfortable to wear because they do not require the use of hair glue or tape to blend the hairline. Getting them to sit flat without adhesives is much easier than trying to do so on a wig with a Lace Front. This means that you can experiment with different styles to achieve the best hairstyles which are most suitable for your facial features. 

When you are buying any type of wig for the first time, always remember to measure your head, first to ensure that you order the right size cap and that the wig fits properly. Measure the circumference of your head and use any guides and information which is supplied to you by the manufacturer to make sure that you measure your head correctly for the best fit. Be sure to consider the different styles, colors, and lengths which may best suit you.

More versatile

Lace Closure Wigs cost less than Front Lace Wigs because the more lace the wig has, generally the more expensive it will be. Closure Wigs come in various lengths, colors, and textures and the price varies depending on the particular wig you choose to purchase.

Like frontal wigs, Closure Wigs offer the option to bleach the knots for a more natural scalp appearance. Because the lace is bleachable, these wigs can look even more natural after this process is done. They usually come in Human Hair which can be dyed or highlighted to match your natural hair color or change your color altogether if you wish. They can be worn to cover all types of hair and are very quick to both install and remove.

More durable

One of the most important benefits of a lace closure wig is its durability. These wigs are less likely to fall off, and they can be adjusted to a variety of looks. They are also less likely to damage your natural hairline because the lace only extends from eyebrow to eyebrow and there is really no need for glue or tape which can cause damage. They can withstand backcombing and heat styling and the biggest advantage is that they are cheaper than some types of hair extensions. They are also cheaper than 360 lace wigs and full lace wigs while providing a natural looking style depending on how you style the wig.

 Frontal and Closure Wigs both have pros and cons. While front lace wigs are more versatile when it comes to styling, closure units are just as durable.  Although the downside to lace closure wigs is their limitations when it comes to styling, the disadvantages are offset by their many advantages.
