What is a Lace Front Wig?
As obvious from its name, it is with lace on the front of a wig. This type of wig has a sheer layer on the front of the wig to make it closer to a natural look.

The difference between a full lace wig, a 360 lace wig and a lace front wig:
Some women still want to know which wig is best for them, so let’s make a comparison for each of them.
Material:
Three of them have resilient lace, but natural human hair. Human hands make human hair knotted lace.
Grade:
Wigs are normally available in three types Low, Middle, and high-grade. 10A is the best grade human hair weave, it is 100% virgin unprocessed human hair, but too expensive. No one opts for the most expensive, so the marketers introduced different grades from 3A to 9A. You can try to pick 8A or 9A grade quality.
Wig Cap Size:
Three of them are available in small, medium, and large sizes. Determine your size beforehand for your purchase. Here is a measurement for your guidance:
Small (21-21.5), Medium (22-22.5), Large (22.75-23)
Density:
You may choose 130, 150, or 180 density as per your requirement.
Lace Colors:
All of them are available in transparent, medium brown colors. Again the choice is yours. Ideally, it should match your scalp.
Activity and Use:
If you want to use a wig all day long during various day-to-day activities, then you better buy a full lace wig. Full lace wig has the ability to withstand tearing higher than the lace front wig. This means the full lace wig is tear-resistant than all others.
Durability:
A full lace wig is fixed to the entire head, therefore, it has long durability. One can do strenuous exercise, swimming, and you need not worry about dropping off the wig.
Easy to use:
Lace front wigs are easier to wear than full lace wigs because, for the latter, you have to paste the wig on the entire head.
Price:
The price of a full lace wig is higher than a lace front wig but not higher than a 360 lace wig. If you have a limited budget, then you better choose a lace front wig.
Breathability: When it comes to breathability, a full lace wig is better than a lace front wig and a 360 lace wig due to a full lace cap.
Variability of styles:
You can make many styles with a full lace wig, but with a lace front wig, you can comb in the middle or side part and style.
Hair Volume:
Coming to the volume of hair used on the wig. A full lace wig has less volume of hair, whereas a front lace wig has more volume of hair at the back.
If you want to comb your hair, make hair sections, or different hairstyles, then you better go for a full lace wig though it’s going to cost you a high price.
New Wearer:
If you are a new user of a wig, afraid of its fixation, then opt for a Lace Front Wig.
Budget Constraint: If you have no issue with the budget, a 360 lace wig is a better choice. It has less installation time as compared to the other two wigs. It is more breathable and comfortable and can give you the choice of making as many styles as you want to. Also, it’s ideal for new wearers or beginners. A full lace wig is also expensive but a better choice than a lace front wig. You can also make many styles and the worth mentioning point is that you can wear it from any side of your head not just from the front, so, it gives a choice of making different styles.
Recommendations:
Different big companies offer a different price range for each of them. They’re available in various colors, hairstyles from straight, curly, loose with body wave, natural wave, and deep wave. We would like to recommend our customers to identify your need first, and then give a second thought to your budget without compromising on the quality.
