Lace Wigs

There are three types of lace wigs- Frontal, Partial and Full

Frontal lace wigs are just that. They have lace in the front only- at the hairline to give the wig a more natural appearance. The remaining of the wig usually has machine made wefts throughout to complete the fullness of the wig. Partial Lace Wigs are made up of a mesh/lace base material that has individual strands of hair that has been ventilated onto the lace at the front and crown areas of the wig. The remaining of the sides and back are generally made up of machine made wefts to complete the wigs fullness. While full lace wigs has been ventilated throughout they are generally more expensive than frontal and partial lace wigs. Why? Because they take the manufacturer a longer time to make and is tediously ventilate all over the entire wig to complete an overall full head of hair. All Lace materials, whether frontal, partial or full are usually bonded on to clients scalp or hair. Selfie wigs are often attempted and attached by amateurs at home to save money. However, I do not recommend this because the results are usually too obviously revealing that screams, "Wiggy!" Always consult with a professional for a more natural looking head of hair.

What is Human Hair?

Human hair

With human hair the hair shaft is made up of dead, hard protein, called keratin, in three layers. The inner layer is called the medulla and may not be present. The next layer is the cortex and the outer layer is the cuticle. The cortex makes up the majority of the hair shaft. The cuticle is formed by tightly packed scales in an overlapping structure similar to roof shingles. Most hair-conditioning products attempt to affect the cuticle. There are pigment cells that are distributed throughout the cortex, giving the hair its characteristic color. The cuticle is a hard shingle-like layer of overlapping cells, some five to twelve deep, formed from dead cells that form scales which give the hair shaft strength and protect the inner structure of the hair. The hair cuticle is the first line of defense against all forms of damage; it acts as a protective barrier for the softer inner structures, including the medulla and cortex.

The cuticle is responsible for much of the mechanical strength of the hair fiber. A healthy cuticle is more than just a protective layer, as the cuticle also controls the water content of the fiber. Much of the shine that makes healthy hair so attractive is due to the cuticle. In the hair industry, the only way to obtain the very best hair (with cuticle intact and facing the same direction) is to use the services of "hair collectors," who cut the hair directly from people's heads, and bundle it as ponytails. This hair is called virgin cuticle hair, or just cuticle hair. Most human hair used for weaves and wigs is obtained from Asia (perhaps most often China, India, and Korea.
