Hairline
All of our wigs are designed with natural hairlines. However, you may have a unique hairline (e.g. widow's peak). If you select, we will customize your lace front, full lace wig, hairpiece or frontal with a widow's peak. Please keep in mind that unique hairlines may not perfectly mirror your unique hairline. If you would like an exact match, please send us a photo of your hairline. Additionally, many of our customers have a head full of hair under their wig. If this describes you, you may want to add a bit to your measurements so that your wig will cover your natural hairline. Please be careful when doing this especially if you have a short forehead. The Widow's peak is M shaped hairline or Pointed Hairline. For this, your front hairlines make the shape of M or come down in point above forehand. A natural hairline is a straight hairline. For this, the hair is growing out of scalp straightly above forehand
Parts/Freestyle
Freestyle (part anywhere)
Center Part
Left side Part
Right side Part
If you choose the "Freestyle (part anywhere) option you will be able to part your lace wig anywhere. If you choose you we can also create the wig to have a natural part in the center, left or right side. We do not make a "bald part" like some wig makers, where there is a severe parting and no hair to form the part in a straight line. This looks very unnatural. What we do is hand knot each individual strand of hair in particular direction that creates a "natural" part. You will still be able to part your hair in other directions, however after shaking the lace wig, you will notice that it will naturally fall according to the part direction you have chosen. We recommend freestyle as it gives you freedom in hair styling. You may place your part anywhere you decide with the freestyle selection. If you select other options you will have less hairstyling flexibility.
Baby Hair
Baby hair shorter hair shorter hair knotted around the perimeter of the entire wig. It is also the same texture as the rest of the wig. Baby hair makes the hairline look more natural and also helps the wig be more versatile to allow high ponytails. In addition, it also helps cover the edges of the lace. Baby hair can be customized to your needs. For example, if you only want it in the front of the Lace Wig, or none at all, we can do that at no extra charge.
Lace Wig Knot Options
Regular Knots
Bleach Knots
Silk Top
Bleached Knots Hairline: Bleached Knots:
Lace Wig knots can be bleached to a lighter color to create the illusion of hair growing directly from the scalp. In addition, knots can be bleached on the front hairline of the wig, around the perimeter, or throughout the entire wig. When ordering light colored wigs (blonde or similar), it is not necessary to select Bleached Knots as the hair is already light.
If you want to apply bleached knots, you should bleach the hair knots in front hairline 2 inches or around perimeter 2 inches, throughout will make the hair to shed easily. The bleached knots can also be bleached in an area of the unit that is poly coated. Depending on your hair color, the bleached knots will be light brown or blonde.
Single and Double Knots:
Single Knots are considered the best method of knotting producing a tiny knot for each individual hand-tied hair. Two or three individual hairs can be single knotted at one time speeding up the process to the detrimental of creating a larger knot with less aesthetically pleasing finish.
Double knots literally involve knotting hair twice to produce a double knot which provides a stronger, more robust knot. The resultant knots are however even more visible under close inspection. It's easy to detect, but not easy to shed.
Single Knots are hard to detect, but easy to shed, by contrast, Double Knots are hard to shed, but easy to detect. As to the advantages and the disadvantages of the two kinds of knots, we recommend single knots in front hairline 2 inches or around perimeter 2 inches.
Triple Reverse Knots:
It means the knots are hidden under the inside mesh( It has two pieces of mesh), and completely invisible, giving the impression the hair is growing out of the scalp. It is the best method to hidden the knots at present. We currently use triple knots as a custom option for our baby hairs.
Hair Base Color:
We have Indian Remy hair and also Indian, Chinese, Mongolian, Burmese, European, Malaysian, Brazilian and Russian Virgin hair.

Synthetic Hair
More easily cared for and also lower priced. synthetic hair wigs allow the hairs to maintain different types of styling such as texture, curl, waves, or volume.
Higher quality synthetic hair wigs are practically impossible to differentiate from human hair, however can be permanently damaged if styled with heat styling tools or chemical treatments.
Regular Human Hair
The majority of human hair sold in the industry is non-cuticle hair. The hair cuticle has been stripped by using an acid-bath.
Remy Human Hair(recommended)
Remy Hair is human hair that is the softest and most natural hair on the market. Remy hair is of Indian origin collected from various temples in India, where people go and offer their hair to Lord Tirumala in reverence. The specialty of this hair is that when the hair is cut from the devotees head, they are cut in a pony tail or braided form thus keeping all the cuticles in the same direction. The Remy hair when used properly in hair ventilation of hair pieces or on a weft do not tangle and have a smooth feeling when you run your finger from top to bottom. This is hair does NOT go through an acid bath. Because it still has it's cuticle and it is stronger than regular hair used in hair pieces. This is the best quality hair for all hair types. It is great for those who can not afford Russian European hair.
Remy Hair Human hair collected directly from a hair donor is Remy Hair. It is sometimes referred to as Cuticle & Cut Hair. The majority of human hair sold over the counter is non-cuticle hair. Over the counter hair cuticle has been stripped by using an acid-bath. With Remy hair, we do not do this so the hair cuticle remains intact which ensures the cuticle layers are aligned in the same direction. The hair is stronger with great luster and has the potential to last MUCH longer if properly maintained. The most impressive advantage of Remy hair is tangle-free and a longer life.
Virgin Hair Virgin hair is hair that is 100% natural and have never been processed. The hair cuticles are all intact and there is no damage to the hair cuticles. Usually refers to European hair as Chinese and Indian hair is rarely sold in their original colors and textures. Since all the hair is hand selected all the cuticles are placed in the same direction and there is never any tangling. All our virgin hair is Remy hair which is beautiful and soft, long lasting, and has lots of body. The hair is hand-selected and a lot of care is taken so all the cuticles are in the same direction.
Cuticle Hair Cuticle hair can refer to all hair, no matter the origin. Hair with cuticles usually has the feel and look of natural hair. It defines the state of the fiber and quality. The cuticle layers have not been chemically altered and care must be taken to keep roots and tips from running opposite directions. Cuticle hair is considered a higher grade of hair and the time and care during production make it a more expensive hair. If not properly handled or cared for before and during the life of the hair replacement or extension, it is prone to tangle.
Non-Cuticle Hair (aka Processed Hair) This hair type can also refer to all hair no matter the origin, including European. The cuticles have been chemically processed to remove the first few layers and fuse the remaining layers. The roots and tips can be mixed in opposite directions.
Natural straight and Silky straight curls or waves up when wet. Natural Straight curls or waves up more. African American textures does not curl or wave up when wet. Curls and Waves will not drop.textures regains it's curls when washed.
French Lace:
French lace is a strong material used at the front edge of a hairpiece in combination with bleached knots to give and extremely undetectable look. The knots are not hidden by lace, but using lighter knots creates the illusion of growing hair. French lace is less fragile than Swiss lace and with care could last a long time.
Swiss Lace:
Almost all of the wigs we sell are Swiss lace wigs. This is the most popular and recommended choice due to its superior advantage in camouflaging. Those new to lace wigs are sometimes cautious because they think the Swiss lace is too fragile and will tear on them. However, the Swiss lace is not so fragile that it will fall apart in your hands. The lace is fine for great undetectability but it is durable enough for normal use and wear.
Invisi Lace (Fine swiss lace):
Soft Lace hard to detect. slightly less detectable, than regular Swiss and French Laces. Not recommended for first time users.
Super Swiss Lace (german imported:
Most swiss laces are imported from Korea, but this super swiss lace is imported from Germany. Very Undetectable, Soft, Invisible and Natural looking. Finer/thinner than French lace and Swiss lace, but also less durable (easier to tear). Disappears on the scalp very well upon application. (recommened for experience users)
Full Lace Wigs
The full lace front wig look is the most natural and undetectable look available. Full Lace Front Wigs are crafted to maximize breath ability and comfort. The special transitional density of the front hairline is done to replicate the natural pattern of growing hair.
Pros: - Natural parting possible throughout entire unit.
- Versatility (can be worn in updos, and braids).
- Breathable, lightweight and comfortable to wear.
Cons:
- Delicate compared to other bases (most likely will need to be repaired within a year-depending on your usage.)
- Will have to be glued around the entire perimeter for a natural look. Time consuming for daily wearers- not an issue for extended wearers.
Lace Front Wigs
The lace front wig approach gives the illusion of a natural appearance from ear-to-ear in the front. This lace frontal portion is actually made up of replaceable piece for easy repair, while the back area is crafted from a more durable material (i.e: monofilament,stretch lace). This base is designed so that replacing the lace front on to the wig is easy and affordable for all.
Pros: - Easier to apply.
- Easier to repair and will not need frequent repairs.
- Will be able to wear hair off face, and back in a low ponytail.
- Heavier densities can be used.
- Breathable.
- Natural looking hairline. Cons:
- Not as versatile styling wise.
- Not as soft to the touch as lace.
Stretch Lace/ Stretch Panel:
Stretch Lace generally ensures a perfect fit. If you’re a beginner, then we highly recommend that you have your cap designed with a stretch panel. The stretch lace panel is a safety net to ensure that your Lace Wig will fit if you aren’t certain that you’ve taken accurate head measurements. Stretch lace is usually located at the crown or ears of Lace Wig caps. The remainder of the cap is designed using French lace, Swiss lace or some of the various materials listed below depending on preference.
Thin Skin:
Thin Skin is a very thin polyurethane material that can be used for the front of the hairline and/or the entire base of the wig. The extremely thin Micro Skin polyurethane material is ventilated by hand, using a looping technique so the hair will stay secure longer, and so that it appears to be growing directly out of the scalp. Please note that this material does not allow your scalp/skin to breathe as well as other materials used in making Lace Wig caps such as lace, silktops and monofilament.
Monofilament:
Monofilament caps are constructed using a thin, breathable nylon or polyester mesh material at the crown of the Lace Wig, which gives the illusion of skin and assumes the wearer's natural scalp color by partially revealing the scalp below. The entire wig may be hand tied, or the wig may have a monofilament crown with Lace material at the sides and back. Monofilament wigs are an especially good choice for those with severe or total hair loss as the cap is soft, unlike cloth material, which can be itchy to those with sensitive scalps. Monofilament caps are not as popular as lace, silk, or thin skin caps.
Silktop:
Silktop caps are also known as Triple Reversed Knots or Hidden knots. Silktop caps are the best money can buy, and provide the most realistic looking scalp in comparison to the other cap options. The reason is because the knots are completely hidden between the silk and the lace. Silktop caps are designed using a high quality silk base at the top/crown and lace material in the front, back and sides. Wearing a wig cap is not necessary with Silktop Lace Wigs because the silk is undetectable, offering the most realistic scalp possible.
Lace is the most undetectable material used in hairpieces these days.
Once placed on your scalp, there is no netting to signal that the hair on your head is not the hair you were born with.
The color of lace depends on a lot of factors. First and foremost, the best applications are usually camouflaged by makeup at the hairline and where the hair is parted. This is truly how you get a natural appearance because even though lace blends with the skin, certain lighting conditions can show the lace.
Skin Tones
The color of lace depends on a lot of factors. First and foremost, the best applications are usually camouflaged by makeup at the hairline and where the hair is parted. This is truly how you get a natural appearance because even though lace blends with the skin, certain lighting conditions can show the lace.
Most women prefer to get a lace close to their skin tone, this is the best option if you don't want to experiment with using makeup (concealer) to camouflage the lace, then it's best to select a shade that blends with your skin tone. If you plan to use makeup, then you should select a shade close to, or lighter than, your own .

To Take Self Measurements: Use a soft measure tape to measure steps below, you can use the typical tape measure used for clothing.
IMPORTANT: Make sure that your measurements are ACCURATE. If you do not measure properly, your wig may not fit. So take your measurements at least 2-3 times to be sure.
Before you start: Pin hair as flat and as tight as possible before taking the measurements. For the best fitting results you should wrap or braid your hair how you plan to wear it under your unit. This will eliminate bulges that distort head contours.
There are six measurements in total, they are:
1. The circumference of the head
2. Forehead to nape of neck
3. Ear to ear across front hairline
4. Ear to ear over top of head
5. Temple to temple around back of head
6. Nape of neck
The length of our wigs are measured from the crown to the hair's tip (from front to back). The length of layered hairstyles will be described based on the length of the hair before styling. Use measuring tape to measure from the crown of your head to where you want the hair to fall. For wavy, curly hair textures I suggest ordering 2 to 4 inches longer, if the hair of the wig is longer than what you desire, you can have it expertly cut by your stylist.
The length of our hair depends on the texture you choose. Straight hair naturally is longer because it lays completely flat. We measure the length of our curly hair when it is straight because it has more volume. The length of our wavy texture lies in-between that of the straight and curly.
Any length can be obtained up to 30inches.
This is the standard way of measuring your wig length. The measurement is taken from the crown to the tips of the hair. This measurement is always given when the hair is straight.
This measurement is given to allow you to determine how long the wig will be on your body. It is taken from the hairline to the tips of the hair, going over the heads
The length of a wig is measured differently than extension hair, a wig is measured from the crown to the tips of the hair, whereas extensions are the same length all over the head, whether it's the crown or the nape. To have a wig the same length as your extension hair, please add 4 inches. For example, a 16 inch weave equates to a 20 inch wig.
