Lear To Install A Glueless Lace Wig Like The Pros In 5 Simple Steps.

Hey queens! Today, we’re going to dive into a highly requested tutorial—how to install a glueless lace wig! Installing a lace wig may seem tricky at first, but with a few simple steps, you’ll have a flawless, natural-looking hair style that’s secure and comfortable. Whether you’re new to wigs or just looking for a new method, this guide will walk you through the process of installing a glueless lace wig with ease.

 

 Step 1: Adjust the Wig Straps

The first step to a successful lace wig install is making sure your wig fits snugly on your head.

 

– Adjust the Straps: Most glueless wigs come with adjustable straps. Start by adjusting them to match the size of your head. This will keep your wig from slipping and ensure a comfortable fit.

– Position the Wig: Once the straps are adjusted, slide the wig onto your head and gently pull the lace down, making sure the back combs grip into your natural hair. 

– Secure the Side Combs: Don’t forget the side combs! These help lock the wig into place and provide extra security, so your wig won’t shift during the day. With these in place, you’re all set for the next step.

 

 Step 2: Cut the Lace

Cutting the lace is the key to making your wig look as natural as possible. It’s all about making sure the lace blends seamlessly into your skin.

 

– Start Around the Ears: Begin by cutting off the lace around your ears. This helps the wig sit naturally and comfortably on your head.

– Zig-Zag Motion: Use pinking shears if you have them. The zig-zag pattern they create helps to hide the lace better by blending it more effectively with your hairline. If you don’t have pinking shears, no worries! Regular scissors work too—just make sure to cut in a zig-zag pattern to mimic the effect.

– Make Small Cuts: Make two small cuts right above the outer corners of your eyebrows on each side to give your wig a more customized fit.

– Final Cut: Finally, cut across the forehead, keeping that zig-zag motion for a smooth, natural-looking finish.

 

 Step 3: Style the Baby Hair

Baby hair plays a major role in making your wig look realistic and polished. 

 

– Use Styling Gel: Apply a little styling gel to the baby hairs around your hairline to shape and style them. You can go for soft swoops or a more defined look, depending on your personal hair style.

– Secure with a Melting Band: After styling the baby hair, place a lace melting band around your head to hold everything in place. This helps the lace melt into your skin, giving you that flawless, natural finish. Leave it on for a few minutes to make sure everything stays put.

 

 Step 4: Style Your Wig

Now that your wig is securely in place and your baby hairs are on point, it’s time to style the wig itself.

 

– Choose Your Product: I like to use a styling gel stick, but you can use any gel that isn’t too messy. This will help tame any flyaways and give your glueless lace wig a sleek, finished look.

– Hot Tools for Natural Hair: If your wig is made from human hair or heat-friendly synthetic fibers, feel free to use hot tools like a curling iron or straightener. Just make sure the wig is safe for heat styling!

 

 Step 5: Finishing Touches

You’re almost done! Now it’s time to remove the lace melting band and admire your new hair style.

 

– Remove the Band: After a few minutes, gently remove the melting band. Your lace should now be seamlessly blended into your scalp, and your glueless lace wig should look natural and secure.

 

And that’s it! You’ve just completed your glueless lace wig install. Now you’re ready to rock your new look with confidence.
