Preparation:

To create a good bond, try exfoliating the skin before applying your glue. -CB

I love wearing ponytails so I have my nape area threaded for that really clear base. -AS

Application:

Try a Q-tip dipped in isopropyl alcohol to remove any excess adhesive, especially in the fron hairlinet, -AT

When using tapes, wet fingers to avoid the glue sticking to your fingers – makes things a lot easier. -JJ

Use a fine point or wooden stick (toothpick) to attach your lace to the adhesive. -KH

My stylist also tacks my lace wig for extra security. -ZM

I find when I fit my lace, tie my hair in a scarf and sleep on it, it sets really well by the morning. -JK

Try using a teeny amount of gel on your natural hair to smooth back your stray hairs. -K.C.

If you use a protective wig cap, make sure its not too tight – this may cause headaches and or neck ache. -JC

Using old tights that match your skin tone, make your own wig cap - this will protect your natural hair and match your scalp colour. -AT

Removal:

For stubborn glue areas, use an old toothbrush and dip in isopropyl. Gently press onto affected area and allow to saturate. Take an old face cloth and gently pinch the embedded glue away from the lace. Wash wig as recommended. -AT

If you manage to get glue on your hair, try rubbing some olive oil on the affected area, and gently comb off. (I find that any brand of olive oil seems to work). -AO

Washing:

Try dry shampooing your lace wig as an alternative. -MJ

Styling Tips:

Don’t be afraid to trim the ends of your wig – it will keep your style looking fresh. -ZM

Fringes work really well with lace wigs – you don’t always have to have the hairline on show. Experiment with different styles. -ML
