Want your wig to look just like real hair? The secret is in one small but powerful piece – the closures for wigs. With just this simple addition, you’ll get a natural-looking hairline that blends seamlessly and looks easily real. Easy to use and style, closures are your go-to trick for perfect, confident beauty every day.
What Is a Wig Closure?
A closure wig is a wig with a rectangular or circular crown piece (called a closure) placed at the top of the head or parting area. This lace piece has hair attached and has the effect of creating a natural-looking hairline/scalp illusion, making the wig look more natural and less recognizable as a wig.
Closures are usually small in size, most commonly 4×4 inches, 5×5 inches, or 6×6 inches. The 4×4, 5×5, 6×6 closures help create a clear parting line, can be parted in the middle, on the side, or freely, and at the same time provide protective styling for thinning/balding areas.
Closure also comes in many styles, such as straight hair (straight closures for wigs), wavy hair (body wave closure), or curly hair (curly closure) for users to freely choose according to personal preferences.
In short, a closure wig is the ideal solution for those who want a wig that is beautiful, natural and easy to style.
Why Use a Closure for Your Wig?
Closures are used to make wigs look more natural, like real hair growing from the head skin. They help to cover the extensions, not showing the seams or lace. Closures also protect the scalp from glue, heat, and chemicals when using a wig. In addition, closures make it easy to style your hair without damaging the extensions, while keeping the wig durable and tangle-free. Closures come in many different sizes and hair closure types, suitable for many hairstyles, providing comfort when wearing.
Closure vs Frontal – What’s the Difference?
Closures and Frontals are two types of hair extensions used to complete hairstyles, but they have some distinct differences. Here are some simple, easy-to-understand comparisons:
Closure: A small piece of hairpiece, usually 4×4 inches, 5×5 inches, or 6×4 inches in size, it’s placed in the top of the head or parting area, covers a small portion of the scalp, looks natural in small areas and easy to use, suitable for beginners. Besides, it’s cheaper than frontal.
Frontal (Lace frontal Closure ear to ear): A larger piece of hair than a closure, common sizes are 13×4 inches or 13×6 inches, extends from ear to ear, covering the entire front of the head, can be parted in any position (center part, side part, high ponytail…), looks very natural because it covers the entire front hairline, frontal is more difficult to install, it requires high technique and more expensive than a closure.

How to Choose the Right Closure for Your Wig
Determine the hairstyle you want: If you just need a simple middle or side part (Closure 4×4 or 5×5 is enough) but if you want a flexible part, high ponytail, swept hair back, you should choose Frontal (13×4 or 13×6).
Choose the right closure size:
– 4×4 inches: compact, easy to use, suitable for simple hairstyles.
– 5×5 inches or 6×6 inches: wider coverage, a little more flexible parting.
– For those who love neat short hairstyles, short closures are the ideal choice. This type of closure has a short hair length, often used for hairstyles such as bobs, lobs or pixies. Short closures for wigs are not only easy to style but also offer breathability and lightweight comfort.
Choose a closure material:
– Lace closure: breathable, easy to use, popular.
– Silk base closure: looks more like real scalp but is thicker and can be hotter.
Choose a hairline color (what color lace): Match your skin tone for a natural look. If light skin (you can choose transparent lace or light brown lace), if medium to dark skin (can choose Medium brown or Dark brown lace).
Choose Hair Quality: Choose human hair closures for wigs for easier styling and durability. You should check the smoothness, shedding, and strength of the hair extensions.
Consider your budget: Closures are usually cheaper than frontals, which is great if you need a simple hairstyle. Otherwise, frontals are more expensive but are versatile and look natural across the entire forehead.

Transparent Closure

Different Ways to Style Your Wig with a Closure
Here are a few different ways to style a closure wig to help you diversify your style while still keeping it natural and chic:
Middle Part
The middle part creates a balanced, elegant and very popular feeling. Closure helps the hair part look natural like real hair, easy to coordinate with many outfits.
Side Part
The side part helps create a softer, more feminine look for the face. You can part it on the left or right depending on your preference and face.
Loose Waves
Gentle water wave curls create a fluffy, seductive look for the hair. Closure helps the hair roots look more natural when curled.
Straight Hair
Smooth, shiny straight hair is suitable for those who like simplicity but still luxurious. Closure ensures the hair part is naturally beautiful, without exposing the scalp.
Braids
You can braid your hair in many different styles such as fishtail braids, box braids, etc. Closure helps the hair at the base of the braid not look stiff or fake.
How to Maintain and Adjust Your Closure
To keep your closure wig beautiful and durable, you need to take care of it properly. Wash your hair gently with a mild shampoo, not too hot water, then let your hair dry naturally. When brushing, use a wide-toothed comb and be gentle so that your hair does not tangle or break. You should also adjust the parting and trim baby hair to make your hair look more natural. If the glue comes off, gently remove the wig, clean it, and then reapply new glue to make the hair stick more firmly and beautifully.
