Do Braided Wigs Look Natural?
Having a natural looking hairline is the key to wearing any wig. And just like the real style itself, they need to show more of your scalp.

- From ear to ear, double-sided wig tape is applied to the wig cap. Other methods of attachment such as wig glue and freeze spray can be used. But these instructions are for wig tape which is best option to save your baby hairs.
