A hair extension or weave is the perfect way to transform your tiresome hairstyle into a more glamorous look. Some weaves of the inferior variety look comparatively unnatural that it becomes clear to those looking a little more closely that you’ve got a weave tucked on. Other weaves may be so flawless and impressive that it can be difficult for others to tell that the hair is not your own. You may not realize it, but one of the key features that make your weave look more natural lies in the type of closure that you use. 

What Is a Lace Closure?

Lace closures are one of the most popular closure types available. A lace closure essentially has a netted base made of lace or silk, and meshed with individual threads of virgin hair. Before attaching to your crown, it is often recommended to have your natural hair braided in cornrows for a neater look. Furthermore, natural hair is protected by sewing the lace closure to a perfectly fitting headband which is tied in the back of the head.

Lace closures are popular because they generally can be more seamlessly affixed to your natural hair. However, simply choosing the right type of foundation closure is just the first step to creating the look you desire. For best results, professional installation is recommended.

Why Is Professional Styling Needed?

There are a few good reasons why you should opt for professionally installed hair extension. You need to have your weave just fitted right and comfortable on your scalp—neither too loose nor too tight. Tightness can cause discomfort and pain, and, over time, hair loss. You need your hair extension to sit perfectly on your scalp, with the hairline looking seamless, and the weave looking easy and natural, overall.

Professional hair stylists will also give the weave just the right look that best goes with the shape of your face. Ultimately, this will help you to get the beautiful style that you’ve always wanted when you first ordered your weave.

There are many other things to consider when you shop for a new weave, other than the type of hair closure (clip-in, sew-in, tape-in, and lace). The kind of hair, color, length, and purity of texture make up part of your decision in the choice of hair extensions. It’s important to select your weave from trusted suppliers, such as Virgin Hair Fixx, for premium quality hair extensions. After the weave that you have ordered has arrived, schedule an appointment with your hair stylist to have it properly installed.
