Steps To Cut A Lace Front Wig:

Step 1:Fix The Wig On The Mannequin Head Or Your Head

First place the wig on the head of the mannequin, or wear it on your own head. This step can be based on your own preferences. If you put the wig on the head of the mannequin, you should fix the hair with hairpins to ensure that the lace front wig will not fall off when you trim the lace. If you wear the wig on your head, you can pull the wig forward a little after wearing it, so that the hairline of your wig slightly exceeds the part of your hairline. The lace should extend beyond your natural hairline. Then fix the wig to make sure it doesn’t swing back and forth on your head. You can use the adjustment strap on the wig to fix the wig to the head.

Step 2:Map Out The Hairline

The best technique for cutting lace wigs is to draw a line along your hairline, which can guide you where to cut. All you need to do is trace your hairline with a makeup pencil a few feet in front of your hairline. Make sure to leave a distance between the hairline and the trace line. If you put the wig on the head of a mannequin, you can take a picture of your hairline. Then start to draw your hairline a little in front of the lace according to the hairline shape in the photo. The lace cut in this way will be more in line with your own hairline and look more natural.

Step 3: Cut The Lace

When cutting the lace, you must choose the tool that makes you feel comfortable. You can use scissors, nail clippers or even eyebrow razors. But make sure that the tools you use are sharp. If the scissors you use are not too sharp, they will pull the lace, which will damage the lace. When cutting, the lace should be straightened to avoid accidental cutting of excessive lace. Trim along the previously drawn hairline. If you are a novice lace cutter and are not confident to trim the lace at once, you can cut the lace into small pieces, which can make you cut the lace easily. When you cut the lace, you should be careful. Cut the lace slowly and there won’t many errors.

Step 4: Get Some Baby Hair

After trimming the lace, you can leave some hair near the hairline. Cut down the hair near the hairline. Then use cream or hair gel to make baby hair more comfortable. Then you can decorate your baby hair. Baby hair can not only make your wigs natural, but also can make your wigs look stylish.
