The first step when you are looking to install a  lace closure is to match it with the weave or hair extensions or your natural hair. Since closures are purchased separately, it is up to you make sure that you buy the best match. This includes matching the color and texture of the closure with the hair extensions you are using or your natural hair. Hold the closure close to the weave or hair extension and see if there is any difference in color. Feel it to determine that both have a similar texture.

Lace Closure Application Guide

–       Regardless of whether you want to install a Swiss lace closure hair on sew-in or glue-in weaves, tracks will be needed for the weft of the closure.

–       Complete the process of sewing in or gluing in hair extensions to tracks or cornrow braids of natural hair.

–       Clean the skin around the outer edge of the hairline with rubbing alcohol.

–       Make sure that you leave a U-shaped portion of cornrow braids on the crown of your head. This is where you have to install the lace closure.

–       Apply a thin line of adhesive. Remember that a little bit of adhesive is enough. Gently press it down until it is secured. Alternatively, you can use a dark colored sewing thread and C-shaped needle to attach the lace closure to the U-shaped section of tracks.
