Unless you are ready to spend thousands and thousands of dollars on one lace wig for the most natural appearance, it is very hard to achieve. Most people use glue and feel that is enough, but for me, I dont like glue because you can see the unnatural "hair-plug" look around the circumference of your head. I gel down baby hairs around the edges and suprisingly, it takes away from that akward "something is not quite right with her hairline" look (LOL)! Some people do not like bangs, but I found bangs also helps with hiding the lace. As for the lace withing the scalp area, for me since I have dark hair, you cannot see the lace or knots at the base and no...I do not wear a wig cap.

There are plenty of ways and to achieve a natural scalp with a flw. There is a thread in the Lace Front section "Natural Part Throwdown" with plenty of pictures and description on how the natural scalp/part was achieved

Wow...i guess not everyone is friendly here on this site. By the way, my suggestions are just that...MY SUGGESTIONS. No matter how you wear it, it is still fake hair...every woman can spot fake hair on another woman (hence, I can spot a woman wearing a weave/lace wig and vice versa). It is up to each person on how they desire to wear their hair.
If it makes you feel great and confident...then do it!!!
