Lace Wig Myths

While lace-wigs are made from quality remy human hair, care is still needed. Just as you would not leave your own hair unprotected, you should not mistreat your wig. Human hair lace-wigs can get wet, use heat styling, cut and colored. This does not mean it can suffer heat damage, constant chlorine usage without washing or constant dying. Treat a human hair lace-wig as your own.

Outside of the black hair wigs itself, your own hair still requires care. Many people believe they can leave the lace front or lace-wig installed for 6 to 8 weeks. While glue and tape applications such as Invisi Bond or Vapon NoTape provide a lasting hold, your natural hair must breath. Regular washing and conditioning should still be a part of your regimen.

While this was true many years ago, lace-wigs and lace-wig products are widely available for all women. There was once a time when only industry professionals and celebrities were privy to lace front wigs, lace-wigs, and custom lace-wigs. Today, these products are available for everyone in many different beauty stores. The beauty behind a lace-wig is that many times, you will not be able to tell who is wearing one or not.

To serve a broader market, lace-wig makers create styles that women seen a daily basis. Celebrity lace-wigs are more popular than ever. Style names such as Rihanna, Beyonce or Kimora are available on many websites. Even if you do not have a favorite celebrity, you can usually find an exact celebrity style from a specific event. Lace-wigs such as “curly Beyonce” or “curly Halle Berry” are examples of the curly styles that you can get modeled after these celebrities.

This is perhaps the biggest myth that is the least true. While other myths have a grain of truth, wearing a lace-wig in itself will not cause baldness. In fact, lace wigs and lace front wigs can aid in hair growth. Many women who choose to grow out their natural hair without chemicals use protective styles for healthy hair growth. Protective styles include braids, loose buns to protect ends, weaves and wigs.

What can cause hair breakage while wearing a wavy lace wigs is applying tape or glue directly on the hairline. Some women go as far as shaving the hairline so that the lace-wig can sit back far enough to look more natural. What they do not realize is that lace bonding glue should never be applied directly to your own hair. This will end up in the wearer losing their hair edges over time from tension caused by the glue. If properly worn, a lace-wig is a great way to protect your natural hair from harsh weather conditions and constant manipulation.
