If you are
looking for a quality Lace Front Wig, that is better than those
Chinese Lace Front Wigs you've been buying, look no further...
we can help you!
We don't sell
wigs, because most factory-made wigs are very poor quality and
they don't last but a few months.
Another reason
why we don't sell them, is because quality hand-made wigs are
so expensive most women cannot afford them.
Therefore,
your only alternative is to learn how to make them yourself and
we can easily teach you how to do that - right in the privacy
of your own home from your computer.
MHRW is a
Global supplier of professional wig making training videos and
Programs. We also sell everything necessary for making Lace Front
Wigs or Women's and Men's Hair Systems!

SECURING
LACE FRONT WIG USING TOUPEE TAPE
Here's how professionals
secure a Lace Front Wig for their customers:
HOW TO UNDERCOAT
AND PROTECT YOUR LACE FRONT WIG FROM BEING DESTROYED
To insure the
lace front hairline section of your Lace Front Wig does not become
destroyed from hair being pulled out from Toupee Tape removal,
or by cleaning away embedded adhesive:
We recommend
undercoating the lace front hairline section of your Lace Front
Wig with our
 EasyTAB
COMPOUND.
There are two
kinds of netting used for making Lace Front Wigs, French Lace
Netting and Monofilament Lace Netting.
French Lace Netting
is the most commonly used material manufacturer's use for creating
Lace Front Wigs. French Lace Netting in appearance and looks
very similar to regular 'window screen'.
Monofilament
Lace Netting in appearance and looks very similar to regular
'women's panty hose,' and when undercoated with our EasyTAB Compound,
looks like skin with hair growing from it.
Monofilament
Lace Netting is not as popular as French Lace Netting when it
comes to wig making, however, if you want a more natural looking
front hairline, you should consider purchasing a Monofilament
Lace Front Wig or creating your own using our Lace Front Wig
Cap.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
If your Lace
Front Wig is OLD:
Clean away and
tape or adhesive residue before undercoating wig.
If your Lace
Front Wig is NEW:
Use the following
process to undercoat the front hairline area of your wig... before
securing it for wearing.
Applying EasyTAB
Compound to French Lace Netting
- French Lace
Netting must be clean.
STEP 1. . . Apply
light 1st coat using a damp loaded brush.
- NOT DRIPPING
WET!
- Do not allow
EasyTAB to flow through holes into hair!
Stroke brush
across underside area(s) allowing brush to lightly touch hairs.
The object is to apply only a tiny amount of compound to each
hair so the hair is locked in place and tape will stick better.
- DO NOT TRY FILLING
IN THE HOLES IN THE FRENCH LACE MATERIAL!
- Let dry for
1 hour... before 2nd coat is applied.
STEP 2. . . 2nd
coat is not necessary.
If ever necessary,
hair can be ventilated to your Lace Front Wig where EasyTAB COMPOUND
has been applied.
footnote::= Acetone
(Nail Polish Remover) may be used to remove dried EasyTAB from
human hair and foundation material.

loosen and flow to underside of wig.
