Show number. Different techniques are used depending on your hair length and type, and type of wig you choose. Installation time largely depends on the technique used to secure your wig. Sewing a wig in place takes between hours. In contrast, it takes less than an hour to install a lace front wig using special adhesive, and around an hour to install a full-lace wig and a wig.
How much you pay for a wig installation depends on the type of wig and installation process you choose. Full-lace, lace front, and wigs tend to require your hair to be absolutely flat before the wig is applied; this is achieved by braiding your hair into cornrows, or by wearing a wig cap. Next, a special adhesive tape or glue is applied to the outer perimeter of your hair ensuring no glue touches your own hair , the wig fitted to your head and fixed in place with clips to allow the glue to bond.
Excess lace is trimmed off, and makeup may or may not be used to help blend the lace edge with your skin to create a natural-looking finish.
Risks include blocked pores, allergic reactions, itching, and hair loss. You should carry out a patch test at least 24 hours before your wig installation to check if you are allergic to any of the ingredients in the adhesive and any other components being used.
