3 Bundles Of Human Hair

 

Looking for a quick and easy way to switch up hairstyles? Suffering from hair loss conditions? You are not alone - that is why wigs and hair extensions have attracted much attention in the past couple of years. There are differences between the two. A wig is a full head covering that consists of a cap with hair attached. Hair extensions are usually clipped, glued, or sewn onto natural hair to create more volume. Both wigs and extensions have their pros and cons, but do not worry about trying to decide between the two. There are cross-over products that combine the advantages of both.

 

A frontal or closure wig consists of a hairpiece that often has 3 bundles of hair sewn onto it. The hairpiece functions as a “half-wig”. The base, which is made of lace material, has a portion of hair attached to it, creating a soft and natural hairline. Additional bundles of hair are sewn onto the base to form a full, healthy-looking wig. These special types of wigs offer more coverage of the scalp to cover up hair loss problems while retaining the versatility of hair extensions. You can choose to add more than 3 bundles of hair to the hairpiece if you are going for a more voluminous look, or you can use fewer bundles if you prefer shorter styles.

Compared to traditional wigs or sew-in extensions, wigs that include frontal or closure pieces are more comfortable to wear and allow for more flow of air to your scalp and hair, especially with lace material. In addition, they are relatively easy to install and require little installation time than sew-in natural hair extensions. For example, sew-in natural hair extensions usually take about 2 to 4 hours depending on the desired hairstyle. Frontal and closure wigs require less than one hour for installation. They are great options if you are looking for something simple and less time-consuming.

 

What are the differences between deals of 3 bundles of hair with frontal and 3 bundles of hair with closure?

When purchasing a frontal or closure wig, deals often come with a certain number of hair bundles combined with a frontal or closure hairpiece. Most deals, by default, come with 3 bundles of hair. Hair bundle extensions come in various colours and styles, so you can explore the options and choose those that suit your tastes.

The main difference between the two types of wigs lies within the hairpiece. A closure typically has a 4x4-inch patch placed on the middle, front portion of the hairpiece. This type of weave does not mask your head but only covers the specific “horseshoe” zone in the centre of your head. The patch material that creates the illusion of a scalp can be made of lace or silk. Note that closures alone are usually used to close off an install. This means you may need to purchase additional hair bundles to obtain a full, voluminous wig since closures only cover a small portion of the head. For example, a 4x4-inch lace closure is often bought along with 3 or 4 bundles of hair to complete a seamless look.

 

A frontal has a strip of lace or silk piece typically sized 13x4 inches that covers your full hairline from ear to ear. This reproduces a soft, natural hairline. Hair bundles are sewn onto the strip, making it a “half wig”. Again, you may need to purchase additional hair bundles to complete a full wig. Note that because frontals go from ear-to-ear, they are especially helpful for people who want to cover up receding hairlines. This type of hairpiece covers more of your head so you can part your hair in the front nearly every way, allowing for a range of different hairstyles. From ponytails to hair buns, it is all up to you.

 

What are the advantages and disadvantages of a frontal vs a closure? 

Size and shape: A closure has a square patch (typically 4x4 inches) as its base and only covers the central front portion of the head. A frontal covers your head from ear-to-ear and has an elongated shape base (typically 13x4 inches).

 

Versatility: Because there is less material on a closure, there is a smaller amount of working space within the piece. This translates into less hairstyle flexibility since you can only work with a smaller amount of hair, making it impossible to pull back the sides without exposing tracks. It is possible to wear bangs with a closure, but it is difficult to create up-dos or half ponytails with closure wigs because you cannot see natural scalp like you would with natural hair. Although this type of weave does not offer much versatility when it comes to styling, closure wigs can be a good option for you if you are the type who only likes specific styles. The biggest perk of wearing a frontal is its versatility. Frontals cover the entire hairline so you can personally style your wigs or extensions with more freedom. It is very similar to styling your own natural hair. 360° frontals offer even more hairstyling versatility. From high ponytails to side braids, feel free to pick whichever you desire!

 

Cost: Since closure wigs are manufactured with less material, they tend to be cheaper than frontal wigs. This can help you maintain simple looks at an affordable cost. Frontals offer more versatility and are made with more material; therefore, they tend to be more costly. Although more expensive, frontals often require fewer hair bundles to complete a full wig.

 

How do I install a frontal wig or closure wig?

As mentioned above, most frontal or closure wigs come with a hairpiece and at least 3 hair bundles. It is a good idea to assemble the wig first by sewing the hair bundles onto the lace base before trying to wear it. This creates a fuller look.

  • Flatten your hair against your head. Braiding your hair into cornrows or using hair gel can do the trick. If you have long hair, you can try tying your hair into a ponytail and then wrapping it into a flat bun.
  • Put on the wig cap. Make sure it fits nice and tight. Gently pull on the cap but be careful not to ruin your flattened hair. Fit it so that the cap barely covers your hairline. Ensure that all your hair fibres are tucked into the cap.
  • Wash your forehead skin with a gentle cleanser and dry with a towel. Remove excess oils on your skin by using some rubbing alcohol. You can apply scalp-protecting serum if you have sensitive skin.
  • Test the fit of your frontal or closure hairpiece before applying any adhesives. Place the wig on your head and line it up with your natural hairline. Make sure that it is not too tight nor too loose.
  • Trim the lace sticking out on your forehead. Trim along your natural hairline but leave about 1/8 inch (3 mm) of lace intact.
  • Remove the half-wig and start applying adhesives. Many people choose either tape or glue. Apply the tape or glue along your hairline.
  • Once the tape is in place or the glue has dried out a bit, carefully pull the wig over your head. Adjust the edges so that hairlines match up. Adjust the back to cover up your natural hair. Press the lace into the tape or glue so that it stays in place.
  • Lastly, comb and brush your wig. Style your hair and show off your new wig to your friends.
