- Requires **less customization and maintenance**  
- More affordable than frontal wigs  
- Protects your natural hairline  
- Great for everyday wear

Limitations

First-time wig wearers, busy lifestyles, protective styling, and budget-conscious shoppers.

What Is a Frontal Wig?

A frontal wig uses a lace frontal (usually **13x4 or 13x6**) that runs ear to ear across the front hairline. This creates a highly realistic appearance and maximum styling freedom.

Benefits of a Frontal Wig
- Natural-looking hairline from ear to ear  
- Can be styled in middle parts, side parts, ponytails, and updos
- Ideal for glam looks and professional styling  
- Gives the illusion of hair growing directly from the scalp  

 Limitations
- Requires more installation skill  
- Higher maintenance  
- Typically more expensive  

Best for:
Experienced wig wearers, special occasions, photoshoots, influencers, and anyone who loves versatile styling.
