How To Sew In With A Lace Frontal Closure

Lace frontal closure can be installed by bonding, as well as by attaching with the use of clips. The most popular method for installing a lace frontal closure involves sewing down the back of the frontal and using a bonding agent to glue the front hairline down. The rest of the weave is then installed around the frontal.

Alternatively the lace frontal closure can be fully clipped in or fully sewn in. Again, the rest of the weave is installed around the lace frontal. Unlike a closure, none of your own hair will be left out in a bonded lace frontal closure installation as the piece is meant to create a natural hairline. If the lace frontal closure is fully sewn or clipped, some of the wearer’s hairline could be left out, and the unit installed just behind the hairline.

Step 1

Sew tracks of weave hair to braided hair to create the shape of a circle. Place the circle on your head where you plan to install your closure. Make the circle as big as the top of the tip of your middle finger.

Step 2

Roll up the track of weave hair to fit inside the circle. Use a hair needle and thread to sew up the ends of the circle. Cut the tread and tie it up to close it together.

Step 3

Flip the sewn circle to the other side and separate the hair on all sides. Lay the hair down flat. Place the hot iron in the middle to flatten the waving hair down. Make sure that the track stays flat and is natural looking. Apply the hot iron for about a minute at no more than 250 degrees Fahrenheit.
