How do you braid or part full lace wigs without showing the tracks or cap?
-
To braid or part a full lace wigs without exposing base material, leverage the unit's key advantage: 100% individual hand-tied strands across a breathable mesh cap—with zero tracks.
1. Scalp Preparation & Cap Camouflage
Begin with a skin-toned wig cap. Place a neutral-colored stocking cap underneath, or use liquid foundation/concealer on the inside of the lace grid to cover the mesh lines.2. Strategic Precision Parting
Part the hair with a metal rat-tail comb for perfect, defined parts. When handling the individual hairs, be sure not to pull too tight. If you do, it could cause a tight lace front, which would expose the lace or your natural hair underneath the wig cap.3. Concealing & Flattening the Roots
Wax Stick: Use a light coat of wax stick on the parting lines and smooth down with a hot comb on medium/high heat. This smooths the root bulk and lays the hair strands flat to the cap and clears away any bulk that would show through the mesh.4. Tension Control for Braids & Updos
Braid it down. Feed in small sections neat and smooth over the part line with light to medium tension. Light tension will allow you to pull the lace down flat against the scalp and not flick the edge up or reveal the perimeter of the cap.
