Lace front wig is a great way to update your hair style and appearance and you needn't cut or color your natural hair on head. Lace front wigs are constructed with a skin toned lace base as opposed to a machine weft base. It is this lace constructed base that allows lace front wigs to display a seamless hairline, making it is not visual detectable.
