1.Trim the excess lace off your lace wig before you wear it. just cut the excess off with sharp fabric scissors, leaving about a 1/4 inch strip of lace out of hairline.

2.Have the lace dyed to match your skin tone,  Often, this is something that the lace wig seller may do for you to ensure that it is a good fit,which will make the lace virtually undetectable and aid in the realistic look of your lace wig. To do this at home, use a fabric dye close in tone to your skin, and no darker. Dip a cotton swab into the dye and apply wherever the lace will be visible, such as around your hairline and at the parts.

3.Add an anti-fray product designed for cloth to the edge of the lace if it starts to fray. You can find these products at craft and fabric shops, or you can purchase an anti-fray product like Aleene's Stop Fraying online.

4.Use a wide-tooth comb and a vent brush for styling your human hair lace wig, since both of these will reduce the pull on the hair. Go slow when removing tangles to protect your lace wig efficiently.

5.Wash your lace wig with gentle shampoo designed for color-treated hair, followed by a deep-conditioning treatment. A shampoo or conditioner that offers UV protection is essential if you always wear your lace wig on a regular basis..

6.Hide your hair before you put on your lace wig or you will destroy the illusion. If you have short hair, you can simply pin your hair so that it is all against your skull. Long hair is most manageable it you fashion it into braids that hug your head. However you hide your hair, the goal is to have a relatively smooth surface for your wig to sit on it.
