13x4 Frontal or a 6X6 Closure Wig?

001

Which one to get?

This is a wig that has a 5X5 closure. Which means that it's has parting space that goes back five inches and 5 inches across. Meaning that it's as far as you can part without running into the tracks part of the wig. 

There are wigs that are 4x4, 6x6, and even some 7x7s.  The 7x7's have a LOT of space and if you don't want to shell out the money for a lace frontal wig, then closure wigs make a lot of sense. 

But which one to get?

Well if you are inexperienced with wigs, you can buy a closure wig which happen to be cheaper than lace frontal wigs.  There are 13X4 and 13X6, the latter being more expensive than the former. 

As you can see, that these are quite different than closure wigs. So if you don't have a lot of experience with bleaching knots, you'll have to bleach all of that space up until where the combs are. If the wig is cheaply made, this could be a disaster for most consumers because the track placement is important when buying these wigs.

I'm looking at you Amazon Wigs. Where most of these companies go to sell their BS wigs for cheaper. Some of you lucked out and bought some great wigs, while others get a shedding nightmare of a mess. 

If you're looking for something that will last, the closure wigs appear to be better made, cheaper, and easier if you're a beginner to lace wigs. 

Because I'm getting ready to put out a post exposing some of ya'll with these lace front wigs. Cause chile.....ya'll need some extra help. Watch those how-to videos AGAIN AND AGAIN as many times as you need to get it right. 

Lace fronts are not for everyone. Do people even get sew ins anymore?

With so many people jumping on the lace front game, there are a lot of mistakes being made out there and I want to write a post on what some of ya'll are doing wrong. Seriously.
