Lift Lace
How do you create a natural looking hairline on a lace wig.?

Does anyone have any ideas on creating a natural looking hairline on a lace wig. i have attached minds but it looks glued and can’t be worn of my face. And it also lifts up and won’t stay down. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Well lets start with the glue. If the hair is lifiting then there are few possiblilties. 1. The glue does not work with your body chemistry. 2. You have a temporary hold adhesive. 3. too much oil in your skin.

Supplies Needed:
Liquid Adhesive or Tape Adhesive
Cotton Ball or Q-tip
Rubbing Alcohol

When applying your wig you want to start with a clean surface.
1. Take 70% or more rubbing alcohol or Witch Hazel and cleans the area that you will use to attach your wig.
**Optional Apply a skin protector (you can get some at www.haribylondon.com)
2. Next apply your glue. I am assuming you are using a soft bond glue, ORWG or Inbisibond and notEndura bond. These instructions will apply to anyting BUT endurabond…Apply a THIN layer of glue. Allow it to dry. Apply a second thin layer once dry OR Clear Attach your lace unit
3. Use Pressure to Press down on your lace into your skin. Using a Makeup Sponge (The triangle shaped kind) and gently press on the lace and PULL DOWN toward your face. This will create a blending affect.
4. Pressure is what keeps most bonds looking flawless. take a scarf, silk preferable and tie it around the hairline. Leave it on for 30 min.

Most important is that you do not leave TOO much lace on the wig. Cut it back as close to the baby hair line as possible wihout cutting into your hair.
