10 Best Lace Front Wigs: The Best Choices on the Market

Whether you prefer flirty, fun tresses or a classic, refined look, the lace front wig is a popular and exciting way to switch up your style on short notice. Of course, nothing ruins that excitement faster than placing an order and receiving a wig on your doorstep that fails to deliver on quality.

Have you ever bought a “premium quality human wig” only to be disappointed by a synthetic blend? Tired of being fooled by pictures of full, voluminous wigs, then later frustrated as your wig arrives with low density?

If these scenarios sound familiar to you, look no further - this guide will help you ease those lace front woes. Learn what qualities to look out for to choose the best lace fronts as you shop, and take a look at 10 of the best lace front wig choices on the market.

What Makes a Good Lace Front Wig?

First, let’s establish how you normally choose the look that’s right for you. Do you routinely find your favorite social media influencer and copy the hottest trend? Are you more prone to scrolling through doctored photos on hair sites until you find the perfect pick?

Either way, chances are you aren’t taking the time to study the quality of your selection. Here are a few factors that separate average lace wigs from their top-notch, premium quality contenders. 

1. Human Hair

For a long lasting, realistic look, make sure that your wig is created using human hair. (Not synthetic or any other variation of the sort.) While synthetic hair showcases a plastic resemblance and excessive shine, when worn correctly, human hair blends well and flows in a believable fashion. Here are the two types of premium materials for human hair lace front wigs:

Virgin Hair

• Best type of human hair available
• Never touched by chemicals of any kind
• Never processed
• Pristine cuticles that run in the same direction
• Can be dyed, bleached and processed like your own hair

Remy Hair

• One step below virgin hair, but still amazing quality

• Also has cuticles that run in the same direction - not easy to tangle

• Has been chemically processed for texture or coloring purposes

2. Lace Type

After you’ve decided on which luxurious hair type is perfect for your crown, the next step is to decide on the type of lace you want to use. This is just as important as the texture of hair you choose – good lace will provide you with the realistic look you wish to achieve. A wig with bad, visible lace will immediately let others know that your hair piece is fake.

You want to be sure that your lace is durable - easy to cut, yet hard to tear. Also, you want to be sure that the lace is easy to melt down. (Melting your lace makes it blend in undetectably with your hairline. Just add your product of choice, or try using wrap strips, and watch the lace literally disappear!) Here are the best lace for wigs in the market:

Clear Lace

• Best lace type - an improved version of HD & Swiss lace
• Most undetectable
• Very easy to melt on any skin tone
• Long-lasting
• Great for beginners

HD Lace

• See through and transparent (not to be confused with transparent lace)
• Short for ‘high definition’
• Once referred to as ‘Thinner Swiss lace’ - the newer, improved version
• Invisible on most skin

Swiss Lace

• The more durable option
• Soft to touch
• Available with several color options
• Great choice for wig beginner

3. True to Length

Whether you like short, sassy styles, or alluringly long hairdos, consistency is key. Have you ever ordered a wig and noticed that the length of the pieces of hair were not the same? Some wig creators mix long strands of hair with short pieces, giving an uneven look. You want to be sure that your wig is true to length and that all strands of hair match.

4. True to Density

All wigs are not the same when it comes to density. The density of your wig will be listed as a percentage, letting you know how much hair to expect on the hair piece. If a wig has high density, it will appear to be full and voluminous. With a lower density, your wig will have a thinner appearance.

Wig density usually ranges from super light, around 60%, to very heavy, around 250%. Most lace front wearers choose somewhere between 150%-200%, medium to heavy density. These percentages are quite similar to the average hairline density of a typical human head. Whether you prefer low or high density, be sure that the description of the wig you choose is honest about its thickness. 

5. Natural Hairline

The next step is to consider the hairline of your wig. You want to go for a natural, seamless look. If the hairline is too thick, the wig will look fake. In the description, search for the terms “pre-plucked” or “clean” in reference to its hairline.

With a “pre-plucked” or “clean” option, you will notice that the hairline has been plucked to resemble a real head of hair. The density at the edge of the wig will be lower in the same fashion of your natural hairline.

While they are slightly more expensive, the extra bucks are worth the realistic look. You will be glad when the simulated hairline blends perfectly into your own for a professional finish.

6. The Cost

Of course, you don’t have to break the bank to find a lace wig of great quality. At the same time, it would not be wise to simply pick the cheapest option and hope for the best. Most lace front wigs range anywhere between $100-$600. Exclusive, celebrity-inspired pieces may cost up to $1,000. The quality usually improves with a higher price bracket. 

Best Clear Lace Front Wigs
