How to apply a lace front wig when u have a lot of hair on your edges?

I just purchased a new synthetic lace front wig. I applied it the correct way and cut off the lace just like you're supposed to do. The only problem is...it doesnt look as natural as it should. I have a lot of hair on my edges and i know i must apply it past my edges. My edges come really close to my face. What could I do to make it look more like it's mine?

    I have almost the exact same problem as you. My edges go very far, and when I tried to apply a frontlace wig, it looked extremely unnatural as it was even MORE toward my brow since I tried to cover my natural hairline.

    What I did (and most frontlace wig users would probably shudder at this) was part a quart inch of my natural hairline and separate it from the rest of the hair. I applied the lace ON that part.
    It looked really great, and I think that’s something that people with lower hairlines will have to work with to adjust.

    There’s so many things that I have a hard time doing because of the hairline! But there’s always a way to work around it.

    Good luck, I hope this helps some and works for you too.

    I don’t know how often your gonna wear it, but i’ve heard a lot of girls shaving it so it can stick down properly.

    DON’T SHAVE IT!!!!!!!!!!! lol

    use gel to lay it down. then use hair spritz. let it dry completely flat. then put the glue on top!!!

    You can cut your hair on the edges, or make sure the lace wig you bought blends in with your overall hair type.
