Step 3: Secure the transparent lace closure or frontal at the front of the cap and use the thread and needle to sew it along the edge all around. When stitching, make tight knots to ensure the lace closure is tightly secured. 

Step 4: Lay the tracks down in a U- shape pattern as you work your way in creating the wig. The pattern will assist you in attaching the thread neatly onto the cap.

Step 5: After you sew the tracks all the way to the closure, the last track should be sewn on the closure. Cut off the excess track after properly securing it with a knot

Step 6: Use tweezers to pluck the hairs on the closure to make it look like your real hair.

Step 7: Cut the excess wig cap that peeks under the lace but ensure that you don’t cut into the stitching.

Step 8: Now, you can sew the wig combs and band. Sew the wig band at the rim of the dome cap and at least one comb on either side of the head and also at the back

Step 9: Now, your transparent lace front wig is ready for styling. Style your newly made lace front wig to any style of your choice, and you’re good to add to your glow and put up that shiny natural appearance with your lace front wig for black.

Excessive friction can easily cause hair to knot, so it is best to take off the wig when sleeping or braid your human hair wig to prevent hair tangle.

Don’t comb your hair when your hair is wet. Wait until your hair is completely dry before combing hair. When combing the hair, start from the end of the hair to the roots. Do not use a comb with curly hair wigs, you can gently comb with your fingers. Body wave wigs can use a wide-toothed comb.

The cleaning of the human hair wig is a very important step. Regular cleaning of the wig will ensure that the moisture of your wig will not be lost. It is usually cleaned once a week, and you can adjust the time according to your own frequency of use.

5. Dry your wig 

Do not blow the wig with a hairdryer, use a dry towel to dry excess water from the hair, and place it in a ventilated place to avoid damage to the hair caused by sun exposure
