Lace Closures

Hello!

Hope you ladies are doing well. Today I want to share with you what lace closures are and how to install them.


In my own words Lace Closures are the Boom.com. They are the icing on a cake, the cherry on top really. One of the reasons why we buy expensive weaves is because we want to have a natural looking weave kinda like it’s your own hair and not a weave. Lace closures give us just that!
It looks like the hair is growing from your scalp and not a weft. When done right you get the same hair look that aboBeyonce have.



Basically a closure is a piece that you add to the top of your head to hide the tracks of your weave. It comes in various sizes such as 4inch  X 4inch and 3.5inc X 4inch. These sizes mean that you would leave that amount of space at the top of your head when you install your weave. Then install the closure in that space.

To get the ultimate natural look you need to bleach the knot of the closure so that the lace closure will look like your scalp. Bleaching the knots mean you use a bleaching powder mixture on the lace of the closure. When doing this you need to make sure that the bleach does not go through to the hair on the closure. I’ll do another post on how to do this.

The closure can be installed in various ways. It depends on the persons preferences and head on how they install it. Some use clue and some sew it in. You can also leave some of your own hair out  with the closure or not leave any at all.


The texture, type and length of a closure; Closures come in different lengths and hair textures just like weaves do. So if you have a deep wave weave on you can get a closure that matches that. If you have Brazilian hair on you can get a closure with Brazilian hair too. You can also mix hair types with your weave and closure. You can have a Brazilian weave on with a Peruvian Closure and vice versa.  You can just blend the hair in and they won’t be difference that is noticeable.


I think for your first closure you should get a straight hair type closure because it is versatile. If you have a deep wave weave on, you can use the straight closure and just curl it.

The length of a closure is also not restricted by the weave that you have on. It is better to get a shorter closure because it creates that layered natural look.  




I have straight 12” swiss lace closures available for sale.
