1 Three common hair braiding methods
Braids
- Braiding your hair is one of three ideal ways to wear your hair under a wig. While not as flat as other styles, it protects the hair and makes it easier for some women to maintain. It also allows easier access to the scalp for cleansing and moisturizing. Braid your hair to minimize lumps or bumps under the wig.
Cornrows
- This is the most common way to wear hair under a wig, giving it a smoother surface than braids. However, it does leave only limited access to the scalp, but the hair is protected and is less likely to appear bulky or lumpy under the wig. Part your hair into small rows from front to back and braid it along the length of your head.
Twist braids or flat twists
- These are the easiest styles to wear under a HD lace wig, but they are also the least popular. While easy to make, they will curl and tangle faster than braids and cornrows. Remember to keep them small, so they don't leave lumps under your wig.

Protect your hair and scalp
- Hair and scalp need to be cleaned regularly to remove excess sebum and dirt. Sweat and moisturizers can build up and need to be removed. Remove the twists, braids, cornrows, shampoo, deep condition, moisturize and redo a new set of braids, twists, or cornrows.
