Braid Natural Hair and Cover

• 1). Braid the hair and cover it with a nude stocking cap for the best application. Be sure to braid the hair in a vertical direction from front to back. Baby hair should be packed away tightly beneath the stocking cap along with braid endings. Some people prefer to shave their baby hair, but this is not a necessary step.
  
  
• 2). A lace front wig should be applied to the base of the hair line surrounding the perimeter of the head. It is imperative to properly prepare this area to protect both the scalp and facial skin from the adhesive, which is used to keep a wig in position. Using a Q-tip, apply two layers of scalp prep to the perimeter of the hairline. After, apply hair glue or adhesive tape around your hair line and allow it to dissolve.
  
  
• 3). Place your wig on and position it for a natural look. It is recommended to use adhesive tape in the back of the neck if you are applying your lace front on your own. There is limited visibility and glue can be applied in the wrong place. Avoid a messy application by using adhesive tape and applying it on the wig prior to putting the wig on. If you position the wig incorrectly, you can easily lift it and re-position it as desired. After your wig has been secured, style it as you wish. A human hair lace front wig can be curled, colored and flat ironed, while a synthetic wig can only be styled with heat limitation.
