    Front lace wig; Some questions?

    Hi!,

    I was wondering how you other mers keep your wig on. It's a lace front so I thought by putting some eyelash glue and my circlet around the wig it would stay in place but still a bit scared it will fall off. I can't find glue special for lace front wigs in Belgium (or I just look at the wrong shops idk).
    I also thought about making a tiara/crown thingy to keep it secure with my circlet and everything but I don't want to look "too much".

    Any tips?

    Hey there!
    One trick is to frenchbraid your real hair and use a few bobbypins to pin through your wig and through your braid. You can make a few cornrows if you have shorter hair.
    Another alternative is to buy small comb clips that you sew to the inside of the wig. Just be very careful when you take the wig off though...http://www.hairdirect.com/store/blac...lip-small.aspx

    I think a swim cap would be a great alternative to a wig cap. Regular wig caps at least from my experience swimming in them always have a tendency to slide while I'm swimming in them. Plus a swim cap will protect your natural hair a lot better and give a much better anchor to your wig.

    Your hair will probably still get wet in a swim cap, but I still think its a good idea! I think a latex cap would work better than a silicone one, fyi.
