How To Wear Lace Front Wigs In a Ponytail
If you’re an experienced wig wearer, you are well aware of the challenges of putting your hair into a ponytail. Maybe you want to get your hair out of the way so you can do a workout, because it’s hot outside or simply because you want to style an updo. Whatever the reason, lace front wigs can be styled into a ponytail. Use this guide to walk you through the steps to get the look just right.
What You Should Know About Lace Front Wigs
Lace front wigs feature lace at the hairline, which offers a natural look. Because such a wig is hand tied and the hairs are spread out, the result is the illusion of hair growing out of your scalp. The lace also blends with your skin color, further achieving the natural look.
Lace front wigs are popular because they are versatile and allow you to experiment with styles from day to day. A ponytail is one such style that you will love when you wear a lace front wig. The trick is to follow the steps correctly so it looks good and appears to be natural without giving away the fact that you’re wearing a wig.
Steps for Wearing a Lace Front Wig in a Ponytail
A lace front wig is perfect for a side or low ponytail, and when done correctly, will look totally natural. The style gets the hair off your face and covers up the neckline at the same time. A half up ponytail is another fantastic option for your lace front wig. Follow these steps:
- Part your hair from one ear to the other.
- Scoop the hair from the top of your head back.
- Secure the ponytail with an elastic of scrunchie to hold it in place.
The hair at the back of your head covers the lace and you get the look and feel of a ponytail to match your lifestyle and daily routine. It’s a win-win! Remember to use a bit of hairspray or other styling products to hold the look in place.
What About a High Ponytail?
A low, side or half ponytail is ideal for a lace front wig. However, getting a high ponytail may be a bit trickier. That’s because the higher the hair, the more of the lace at the back of your neck that will be visible. To get the look, you can try using a wig cap so that you have something to attach the wig to. A wig band serves the same purpose. If you have some natural hair, you can use it by combing it out over the edges of the wig to get the high ponytail without revealing the lace. Hairspray will also come in handy for holding the wig and natural hair in place.
