First things first: A frontal usually covers the entire front area of your head, says Yummie. It goes from ear to ear, so it covers your entire hairline too, making it super versatile. Because a frontal has a lace or silk base that blends the hair piece into your natural skin and hairline, you've got hella style options (think: deep-side parts, half-up ponytails, messy buns). If you get bored with your look after a few days, Yummie says you'll probably do well with a frontal.

The traditional closure piece is typically installed alongside your hairline or wherever the hair weave or wig is meant to be closed off to give it the illusion of being your own hair. The placement can also depend on where you want to create the illusion of a part when wearing a wig or hair extensions.Big hugs to you all! At 50, I feel your pain. My eyebrows are gone forever but I will fight this ’til the end (no kids, unmarried so sad to be transforming this way; if I find a solution in June I will let y’all know). Really appreciative of you all posting because I decided against having more cortisol injections in my 5-years hairless eyebrow area since I’m afraid that it will collapse, thank you for the considerate and caring warning! The line of demarcation is also harder to conceal with a silk base frontal. Which means that certain hairstyles such as ponytails and buns may be harder to pull off without it looking unrealistic. This is why many women choose to go with the lace frontals especially women of color because silk base frontals are usually much too light to match the skin.

Following my son’s wedding and the fact that I was starting to accept my condition, I began to grow in confidence. I even shaved off what was left of my real hair and used this as my profile picture on social media to “come out”. Don’t get me wrong, I wasn’t about to introduce myself to strangers as ‘Hi I’m Mandy, yes this is a wig’ – but wanted to be more open to folk I was likely to see on a regular basis. After all, at the rate I was changing styles, colours, lengths – I was sure people would wonder what was going on. And I was at the point where I’d rather they knew than have to wonder.

The parting area also cannot be changed once the closure is installed.

Around this time, I experienced tough family losses which affected my mental health, so much so that at one point all I could hear was screaming in my head. The head which was now losing hair at an alarming rate. I guess some more triggers must have been set off.I even had my makeup applied professionally for the first time!

Lace frontals seem to be the most popular trends in hair extensions and have begun to replace traditional sew-in methods for installing hair extensions and bundled hair. Most women prefer this method because it mimics the hairline more naturally without the hair looking like an actual wig or hair weave. Many frontals are even constructed with baby hairs to give it an even more natural appearance. Using a specialty lace or wig tape is the second most popular method for installing frontal hair pieces. It’s an easy method that you can do at home and takes just a few minutes to install. The lace or wig tape has just as much hold as the lace wig glue but the hair may not lay as flat. Also note that if the tape is not installed properly it can shine through the lace. The Elastic Band MethodAlthough we might expect our hairline to weaken or recede slightly as we age, it’s possible to experience conditions such as traction alopecia or frontal fibrosing alopecia, causing much more dramatic symptoms that are difficult to conceal. A frontal hairpiece is very similar to a closure piece that is used when wearing wigs, weaves or hair extension pieces. The most obvious difference between a frontal and a traditional closure is that the frontal encloses the entire front area of your head from temple to temple right at the hairline whereas a closure only encloses about a 4x4 area at the of your head. To make a front partial hair system work, the first step is to install it. For this, we usually use a specific glue or tape to affix it to the bald area. Then, it is important to style it, which involves making it more natural by blending the front partial hairpiece with the client’s own hair.
