1. Choose The Right Wig Hair Density
The density of the ladies' wigs can sometimes be an issue too. Choosing the correct percentage of density of your wig will avoid you from further problems. Getting a high-quality wig that has too much density will make you feel really bad from your head. It will be obvious that you are wearing a lace front wig. At the time of purchase, please make sure that you have in mind how much density is that you want your wig to have.
Always choose wigs that look natural on you. The wig should look as realistic as possible. Never choose heavy density wigs unless you have lost all your hairs or if you are in the entertainment industry where a voluminous look is a must.

2. Pay Attention To The Breath Ability Of The Wig Cap Construction
Choosing a wig that allows your scalp to breathe is very important. Proper hygiene and keeping the scalp dry is important. Wearing a wig on wet or damp hair can cause bacteria and fungus to grow. This can cause irritation and unpleasant odor. Those who sweat more must shampoo their hair more frequently and allow it to dry thoroughly.
Proper breathability of the materials will keep your scalp comfortable and dry. A net wig cap is a great option, this will not dry the hair as cotton and nylon do. The cap of Beautyforever Affordable Wig uses breathable materials to make sure that there is airflow inside the wig.
3. Choose A Wig Color That Match Your Skin Tone
Choose a wig color that compliments your skin tone. This will make the wig look natural. If you prefer to experiment, your other option is to match it to the color of your eyebrows. The closer the color is to your skin tone, the more natural it will look.
4. Choose A Cap That Match Your Scalp Color
Customers that first time worn a wig do not know that if the nylon mesh underneath is not the same color as the cap construction from the wig. It will be noticeable other people around will know is not your own hair. Recommendations for first-time users, please wear a nylon mesh that is the same color of your cap from the wig. While it can be challenging to find one that matches your skin color exactly, blending the color of the cap with makeup powder or dyeing can be your other option.
5. Cut The Lace Edges Before You Install The Wig
Most beginners do not cut the lace edges for fear that they might overdo it and make the wig unwearable. But not doing so is a disaster in the making. If you are out on a romantic date and the wind blows just right to move the hair away from your hairline, your date will be able to see the lace edges and that's just humiliating.
Lace front needs to be cut, but not to close to the hairline because the hair will start to come off: Lace front needs to be cut 1-2 inches from the hairline.
Do not cut off too much lace. Cut small portions of the lace instead of all of it at once. Cut the lace all around the front and sides of the lace wig using long fluid scissors strokes to avoid the jagged edges.
6. Wig Adhesives Using Issues
As with any product that we want to use on our face, do a patch test first. Glues are chemicals that may not suit all skin types. Apply a drop of glue on your forearm and leave it for a few hours or overnight. Notice the area after two days of the patch test. If there is no allergic reaction, you may use the glue. If you see even the slightest skin irritation, stop using it.
Many Fist time users apply the wrong glue to their Lace front. Please be advised that the right glue needs to be applied, and make sure that it is dried completely it can take up to 15 minutes for the procedure to be completed.
Or better yet, choose Beautyforever Glueless Wigs. A comfortable grip band may also help eliminate the need for combs, clips, or pins in securing the wig, thus preventing possible bald spots and headaches.
7. Wrap Your Hair Properly
In order to wear a lace front wig or any other kind of wig, you will first need to wrap up your own hair completely close to the scalp, otherwise, the wig will be noticeable.
Gorgeous wigs cannot work their miracle without a great foundation - a neatly, properly wrapped hair. Not doing so will cause the wig to look puffy rather than natural. While braiding takes more time, it is ideal, especially for those with longer hair. Do not braid your hair too tight as this might lead to scalp and thinning hair problems in the future.
8. Create An Natural Hairline On Your Wig
Your own hairline is naturally jagged and uneven, so it will definitely look unnatural if the hairline of your wig is too straight and perfect.
You can use tweezers to carefully pluck out random pieces of hair in the natural wig hairline. The main focus is to make a gradual fade from the hairline to the rest of the hair. Create baby hairs that are very thin and short. Or rather than trying to cut the hairline yourself, take it into a professional lace wig stylist.
Better yet, save yourself from the hassle by getting Beautyforever Human Hair Wigs that come with pre-plucked hairlines.
9.Style The Wig To Flatter You
Styling wigs seem to be a problem these days. Lace front wig is not always heat resistant. Some synthetic wigs are not heated friendly and are not able to style.
Beautyforever Real Hair Wig is heat resistant you are able to style the hair just the way you want it. Try to avoid damaging your hairpiece and take it to a professional.
10.Maintain Your Wig Properly
Wigs should be stored correctly. Wigs are to be washed 6-8 wears and store in headstands. Sometimes wigs can look easy to be applied. But the reality is that once you have the actual piece ready to be worn it starts to give you a lot of trouble. As a company with many years of experience, our suggestion to you is not wash the wig daily. If you need help applying the wig you go to someone that knows how to do it, otherwise, they will ruin your wig.
Extreme care should be taken when combing the wig hair and it should always be from tip to root. Never comb on wet hair. When styling, take extra care around the knots, making sure you do not pull on them. Use a wide-tooth comb or a wig brush. Do not wash a wig with extremely hot water as this will lead to shedding. Excessive heat from a blow dryer can also damage the wig hair, always blow dry on a low heat setting.
