A hairpiece designed to mimic the appearance of a natural scalp, typically constructed with individual strands of hair attached to a lace or silk base. This unit is specifically created to close off an install, providing a finished and seamless look across the front portion of the head. For example, it allows for versatility in styling, such as parting the hair in different directions while maintaining a realistic hairline.
This type of wig offers significant advantages, including protective styling benefits for the wearer’s natural hair. It minimizes the need to manipulate or apply heat directly to the natural hair, promoting healthy hair growth. Historically, these pieces evolved as a solution for achieving varied hairstyles without causing damage or stress to the underlying hair.
