Swiss Lace Closures: How To

How are closures applied?
Closures are attached to the horseshoe section of your head from just behind your hairline to the top center of the head. Closures can be applied many ways.

• The most popular method used to attach a closure is by sewing it into your hair. This is done by attaching it to cornrow braids along the perimeter.
• Since our closures have a lace frontal you can also sew the back of the closure into your head and glue the front lace base part using hair tape or hair glue.
• You can also bond the closure onto your head, by using hair tape or hair glue.
• You can also add clips to the closure and clip it on.

Where should the hair closure be placed?
The closure should be placed slightly in front of the braid (at your hairline) and then sewn down. This will prevent the braid from showing, and allow the lace to blend better with the scalp.

Should I apply the hair extensions before or after I install the hair closure?

What Braid pattern is best?
Start with a part down the middle. For each braid that will sit under the closure, begin a braid about 1.5-2 inches from the part. Take each braid and braid around in a half circle, then braid it down. Sew the closure as flat to you head as possible. Make the braids as small as possible so that the closure can lay flat.

Sultry Couture Extensions in the Press

For once people finally commented on how nice and long my hair was and didn't ask if my hair had extensions. The best thing I think was that this hair is real and natural and that made a difference. The hair that's in the salons is filled with synthetics so you're not getting real hair. The hair from this Sultry Couture is the way to go as it is real human hair. I went with the clip ins because I can take them out anytime, but my friends have done the sewn in wefts and what's great about the real human hair is you can wash it or style it and it lasts about 6 months depending on how you take care of it. Some people go an entire year. All in all, this hair gets my recommendation.
