Sure,
1.
I spray 90% alcohol on my skin and on the lace.
2.
I then apply liquid Band-Aid. I prefer
this over the skin protectant just b/c it’s slightly thicker and I
never get glue burns.
3.
I apply one layer of UltraHold to my skin in
the shape of my hairline or the hairline I want to achieve.
4.
While waiting for the glue to dry I apply
thinly sliced tape to my lace. Thick tape is just too noticeable. I cut one
piece into 3 thin slices –except in the back where I cut them into 2 slices b/c
I perspire a lot in the back and need extra hold.
5.
Then I apply the lace to my skin (very
lightly) starting from the widows peak and then to the temples. An important
trick I use is to stretch the lace while applying it by pulling it apart while laying
it on my head at the same time. I hope this makes sense. By doing this you are
opening the lace pattern and it doesn’t look so lace-like when applied. Be
careful not to rip your lace.
6.
Then I use a comb to press the lace down
while combing the baby hair forward.
7.
Lastly, I’m old fashioned. I just apply a
really good press powder to areas that need it using a q-tip –dabbing very
little at a time.
8.
Then I comb the roots forward, brush the
ends back –and tie it down like this. This way the hair stands up from the root
and isn’t glued flat to the skin.
9.
The next day any baby hair that is glued
down I use the comb to comb out and stand it up so it looks like it’s coming
out of the scalp.
I usually flat iron all the
roots except for the perimeter and my parts. That way it’s not too thick all
around.
That’s pretty much it. I hope
this helps. Feel free to ask more questions.

Juicy Lace Wigs
Topic Options
. Anyway, I still order from juicylacewigs at gmail through Bill King. I have never tried any other texture but kinky so I can't answer for other textures. The reason I order my hair so kinky is so I can flat iron the ends and leave the roots kinky for a more natural look. Also, I prefer juicylacewigs because they have a more natural hairline instead of the moon shape hairline you see on some girls. Always request a widows peak. Even if you don't have one, ask for a wide widows peak. It just makes it look more natural. The wig is a bit thick and werewolf-like when you first get it but don't be afraid, just take your time and flat iron it until it is your preferred flatness. It will shed overtime and eventually you won't have to flat iron as much. In other words, the density gets better over time. I wouldn't order a thinner density right away because thicker will last you longer. Just means you have to flat iron more at first. These pics are a 1 day old install after a flat iron and tie down (you can see my scarf imprint on my forehead). I usually wait a day to give my glue time to really dry before I start pulling on it. None of my real hair is out. I did have to trim the baby hair a bit b/c it was too long for my taste. Feel free to ask me any questions. Again, my apologies for the LLAAATTTEEEEE response.
