How to Cut a Lace Front Wig: Step-by-Step Guide
Before you begin cutting your lace front wig, gather these essential tools:
- Large clips
- Rat-tail comb
- Scissors, eyebrow razor, or regular razors
- Wig head (optional)
- Foaming mousse or water
- Makeup pencil
Step 1: Put the Wig On
On your head: Place the wig so that the lace sits about a quarter-inch above your natural hairline. Use the clips and adjustable straps to secure it, ensuring the lace lies flat against your scalp.
On a wig head: Secure the wig with T-pins to prevent it from moving during the cutting process.
Step 2: Trim the Ear Tabs
Use the pointed end of the comb to part the hair just above your ear. Clip the hair up, leaving a small tab of lace over the ear. Carefully cut around the curve of your ear with scissors, removing the excess lace to help the wig sit flat for both cutting and installation.
Step 3: Mark the Hairline
It can be helpful to mark your hairline as a guide, though this step is optional.
Using a makeup pencil, trace a line from ear to ear in the shape of your natural hairline, leaving about a quarter-inch space between your actual hairline and the line. If needed, comb the wig hair back and secure it with clips. Apply a small amount of mousse or water to hold the hair in place.
On a wig head: After securing the wig, trace the line on top of the lace for a clear guide when cutting.
Step 4: Cut the Lace
Make small cuts along the marked line on the lace to create manageable sections, reducing the risk of jagged edges or mistakes. Hold the lace taut while cutting to avoid cutting into the hairline.
Avoid cutting in a perfectly straight line, as this may look less natural. If you're unsure, cut the lace in small sections for more control over the process.
