Best Wig Install near me in Smyrna, Atlanta

Professional wig installation is available for lace front wigs, full lace wigs, HD lace wigs, U-part wigs, and headband wigs. Each requires specific application techniques. Lace front and full lace wigs offer the most natural-looking hairline when correctly installed.

The installation of your wig is dictated by your hair’s length, texture and thickness, the wig you choose, and the installation technique you go for. Full-lace, lace front, and 360 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. If you’ve opted to have your wig sewn-in, you’ll swap the adhesive stage for stitching the wig in place.

How much you pay for a wig installation depends on the type of wig and installation process you choose. Expect to pay between $10 and $245.
