Hair Care / Lacefront System Maintenance

Applying a Lacefront System

How to Attach Your Full Lace Custom System:

  1. Prepare your hair, by creating a flat surface for the system to sit. We suggest that you cornrow your hair directly to the back or pin your hair into a flat French roll and then place a stocking cap or a system liner over your hair. We also recommend using a skin prep or using 90% alcohol on the hairline to remove all oil and residue for a clean surface for the adhesive.
  2. it the system on your head, and evaluate how and where you would like the hairline. The goal is to find where the hairline will look most natural. We suggest using eyeliner to lightly mark where the edge of the hairline falls.
  3. Gradually starting trimming the excess lace, the goal here is to create your hairline, only cut small amounts off at a time.
  4. After you have created your hairline begin applying a small amount adhesive directly to your hairline. Please note that you only need a small amount of adhesive. The more adhesive you use the clumpier it will appear. Gently bring the lacefront system and press on top of the thin line of adhesive applied on your hairline. Secure it with either the back of a fine tooth comb or use your hands covered by a stocking cap gently for 30-45 seconds. Then allow it to dry and secure it in place.
  5. The finished hairline should look totally natural, as if the hair were actually growing from your head. Please do not shower, engage in sporting activities or sweat for up to 12 hours after applying the lacefront system.

Removing a Lacefront System

How to Remove Your Full Lace System:

  1. Put all hair up into a ponytail, this prevents adhesive getting on the hair.
  2. Apply either the lace adhesive remover or 90% Alcohol to the adhesive around the perimeter of hairline with a cotton swab.
  3. Gradually remove the lace, be care not to pull at the lace, Remove slowly if there are parts that stick, douse the cotton swab in more remover or alcohol and apply directly to the area.
  4. After you remove the lace, there may be some residue left on the unit, you should shampoo the unit, and with a towel, delicately scrub the residue away. Another method to remove residual adhesive is to press the system down on glass or a mirror and slide and the residue will stick to the surface and removed from the lace.
  5. You should let the unit dry naturally or you can style the unit, how you would normally style your natural hair.

Lacefront System Maintenance

Maintaining Your Full Lace Custom System:

  1. When washing your lace front system while still on please use extra caution. We suggest placing the hair in two braids. Let the water run through the braids and apply shampoo pre-diluted in water. Do not agitate or manipulate the hair or the scalp of the system while washing. Use a conditioner as usual. We also suggest sitting under a hooded dryer to let the braids under the system thoroughly dry.
  2. You can wear these systems for up to 10-30 days. You can sleep with a satin bonnet or in two gentle braids. We do not recommend taking the system off to frequently…the lace on the system will eventually exhibit more wear and tear.
