HAIR DENSITY
While customizing
your full lace or lace front wig it is very important to choose the
right density to allow for the most natural look.
Hair density refers to
how thick the hair is. The hair density that you order is really based
on personal choice and what looks best on you. Most women achieve a
natural appearance with light to medium or medium density; however, your
choice will depend on your styling preferences and individual profile.
Naturally growing hair grows differently for every person. Hair can
grow thin (light) around the perimeter (hairline) and thick (medium) in
the middle. Hair can also grow thick (medium) around the perimeter
(hairline) and thickest (heavy) in the middle.
Below are the most
popular choices for densities in the lace front/ and full lace wig
industry.
• Light Density: This
density is 60% thickness of an average head of hair. It is recommended
for people whose natural hair does not have much volume or thickness.
Light density on a lace front or full lace wig shows a fair amount of
scalp. This density is popular with elderly women.
• Light to Medium: This density is 80%-100% thickness of
an average head of hair. This is the most popular density requested for
custom lace front and full lace wigs. It means that the lace front or
full lace wig will have light density at the hairline and medium density
every where else. This is the most natural looking and most recommended
by top stylists. This density is suitable for most women.
• Heavy: This density is 150% thickness of an average
head of hair. This is too much hair for most women to look natural.
This density in lace front wigs or full lace wigs is usually worn by
performers who desire a heavy style. Not recommended for a person
looking for a natural look in a lace front or full lace wig.
