When a client moves from extensions to a wig, the first decision is construction: lace front, 360 lace or full lace. Each changes what she can do with her hair - and what you should stock.
Lace front
Lace only at the front hairline; the back and sides are machine-made weft. Affordable and natural from the front, but updos that expose the back will show the cap. Best for clients who wear hair down or half-up.
360 lace
Lace runs around the full perimeter, so you can wear a high ponytail or top knot and still look natural at the hairline all around. Mid-price, and the sweet spot for most everyday-plus-styling clients.
Full lace
Lace across the entire cap - every hair is hand-tied, so the whole head moves and parts naturally. Maximum versatility (any updo, any part) and maximum price, and more delicate to handle. The premium choice for bridal and content work.
How to advise
- Down/wavy daily wearer on a budget → lace front.
- Ponytail and updo lover → 360 lace.
- Bridal, editorial, maximum realism → full lace.
Tie the choice to the occasion with our wedding & event guide, and understand the cap itself via the lace techniques guide. Lace type (HD vs transparent vs Swiss) is the next layer - see our lace comparison.
Keep one of each construction in demo stock from the catalogue, and ask our team about a wig sample set for training.
