Lace closures are created by hair attached to a lace fabric secured by a knot. That's it. Handle it with care. If you over bleach your knots, you will experience excessive shedding and balding. If you comb starting at the root, you will also experience excessive shedding and balding. Always comb starting from the ends and work your way up. Lace closures and lace frontals are not meant to last forever. Taking heed with the few steps above can increase the lifespan of your investment. If you are unsure of its condition after each use, check with your stylist prior to your appointment.
