Generally, human hair hairline is a little thinner than the hair behind. When Yolissa Hair makes frontal wigs, we pluck the hairline to make the wig look similar to the human beings' hairline, so the lace wigs come pre-plucked. However, some customers may prefer a thinner hairline and prefer to pluck more based on the hairline we have plucked. If people want to pluck or re-customize the hairline, they can fix the lace wig on a wig stand or their heads and use a tweezers to pluck the hairline to achieve the look they expect. Please attention do not pluck too much or pluck or tear the lace.
2. Install The Wig
Now, it is time to install the wig. People can use a pair of scissors or a razor to cut the extra lace in the frontal part, then glue down the wig. After people fix the wig, they can choose to make a parting. About the 13x4 lace frontal wig and 13x6 lace front wig, people can do a middle parting, side parting, or free parting. When you want to make the edges, please think, and decide the part you need in advance. After all the steps completed, we can customize the edges.
3. Create Baby Hair
Before making edges, we need to distinguish the baby hair first. Yolissa Hair wigs come with baby hair, and people can comb the baby hair out directly. If needing more baby hair, you can pick and cut more baby hair. When doing that, you can use the sharp part of a rat-tail comb, and pull small sections of hair at the front of the lace wig. After that, the hair will become the baby hair. You can do that in the whole hairline where you plan to make the edges.
4. Trim Baby Hairs
The hairs used as baby hair might be a little longer than you expected. Under such conditions, you can pull the hair, cut and trim the hair to the length you need with one scissor or razor. People can leave the baby hair around 1-2 inches. If people prefer a clean and neat edge, scissors are the most suitable choice. While if people like a jagged look, they can use a razor instead.
5. Style The Edges With Gel Or Hairspray
After cutting the baby hair, we can shape them. People can apply the gel or hairspray on a brush, or the baby hair directly, then brush through the hair, and try to smooth the hair and lay the edges into place. When laying the edges, you can also consider the edge style matching the hair texture, parting, and your make-up. You can brush the baby hair into the swirls, and waves. Generally, most customers prefer to make two edges at the right and left part. Some customers are willing to swirl the baby hair in the whole hairline.
6. Shape The Edges
Now you have styled the edges with the look you want to achieve. You can please wrap your headline with a band or scarf to settle the style. Ten minutes or so is okay. After that time, you can remove the band or scarf to unveil the final look.
