Believe it or not, many of the celebrity hairstyles we so admire, are achieved
with the use of wigs.

Among the more popular wigs are the African American Lace Front Wigs.

They are often so well fitted and authentic looking that we are unable
to tell that the wearer is actually sporting a wig.

The wigs are available online, or they can be purchased from the local
beauty store, or stylist.

Front lace wigs tend to be more expensive than some of the other wigs
worn by African Americans.
![Page 7: African American Lace Front Wigs](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062709/55902d771a28abb1428b458b/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
The reason for the disparity in price is due mainly to the fact that it costs a
lot more to produce them.
![Page 8: African American Lace Front Wigs](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062709/55902d771a28abb1428b458b/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The higher production cost is as a result of the labor intensive nature of
these wigs.
![Page 9: African American Lace Front Wigs](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062709/55902d771a28abb1428b458b/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
It can take a wig master up to 50 hours to attach the thousands of strands to
the lace, and then style it.

In addition, these wigs are generally made of 100% human hair, which is more expensive than synthetic hair.

African American lace front wigs give a very authentic look to a woman’s hair.
![Page 12: African American Lace Front Wigs](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062709/55902d771a28abb1428b458b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The hair falls naturally, and often it is not possible to tell that it is a wig.
![Page 13: African American Lace Front Wigs](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062709/55902d771a28abb1428b458b/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
This is partially because the lace tends to blend in with the scalp, and give a
very natural looking appearance, especially at the hairline.
![Page 14: African American Lace Front Wigs](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062709/55902d771a28abb1428b458b/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
The natural look of the hairline is also a result of the baby hairs which are attached at the front of the wig.

Unlike some wigs that can damage the hairline, the front lace wigs provide
protection for that delicate part of the hair.

Wigs can be put on with a wig cap or by braiding.
![Page 17: African American Lace Front Wigs](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062709/55902d771a28abb1428b458b/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
A wig cap is normally recommended for clients with shorter hair, as the hair can simply be placed below the cap.
![Page 18: African American Lace Front Wigs](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062709/55902d771a28abb1428b458b/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
However, in the case of women with longer hair braiding is recommended.

The wigs can be applied with a few simple steps.
![Page 20: African American Lace Front Wigs](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062709/55902d771a28abb1428b458b/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
The hairline is first cleaned.
![Page 21: African American Lace Front Wigs](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062709/55902d771a28abb1428b458b/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
This can be done with regular rubbing alcohol.
![Page 22: African American Lace Front Wigs](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062709/55902d771a28abb1428b458b/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Then a skin protector is normally applied.
![Page 23: African American Lace Front Wigs](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062709/55902d771a28abb1428b458b/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
This helps to protect the skin from the liquid adhesive that is used to attach
the wig.
![Page 24: African American Lace Front Wigs](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062709/55902d771a28abb1428b458b/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
A thin smooth layer of adhesive is applied around the perimeter of the
entire hairline.
![Page 25: African American Lace Front Wigs](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062709/55902d771a28abb1428b458b/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
This must be carefully applied to avoid touching the client’s hair.
![Page 26: African American Lace Front Wigs](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062709/55902d771a28abb1428b458b/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Some women opt to attach the wig to a wig cap.
![Page 27: African American Lace Front Wigs](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062709/55902d771a28abb1428b458b/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
In these cases it is important to use a natural toned cap.
![Page 28: African American Lace Front Wigs](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062709/55902d771a28abb1428b458b/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Using a cap will ensure that your natural hair is protected, and kept neat
while you have on the wig.
![Page 29: African American Lace Front Wigs](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062709/55902d771a28abb1428b458b/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
It is relatively simple to care for a lace front wig.
![Page 30: African American Lace Front Wigs](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062709/55902d771a28abb1428b458b/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
The wig should be washed and kept clean in the same manner as you
would natural hair.
![Page 31: African American Lace Front Wigs](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062709/55902d771a28abb1428b458b/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
It is best to use a mild shampoo and conditioner to clean.
![Page 32: African American Lace Front Wigs](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062709/55902d771a28abb1428b458b/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
African American lace front wigs are a popular alternative because of the
natural look they offer.
![Page 33: African American Lace Front Wigs](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062709/55902d771a28abb1428b458b/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
This look is achieved because the wigs can be custom fitted, and made to fit
snugly on the head.
