A Lace Front Wig/ Ear to ear wig has lace all along the front of your hairline from ear to ear. This results in the most natural looking hairlines. The size of the lace area is 13" long (i.e. from ear to ear) and 4"-6" wide (i.e. from your hairline towards the back of your head and this is where you can part the hair into different styles and lines).
A 4x4 Lace Wig is a wig made using a closure and therefore the lace area along the hairline is 4" (so not as wide as compared to a lace front wig) but you still have 4" of parting space as well and are able to create a very natural looking style especially if you prefer a middle parting style.
- Yes of course you can! We do recommend using a low heat setting where possible of 120C/250F in order to prevent damaging your hair
- in order to preserve and extend the lifespan of your hair we recommend always using a heat protectant spray prior to styling
