The Guide to
Glueless Lace Cap Wigs
The worlds of perukes is an evolving one and traditional adhesive using lace cap wigs are not the only way to wear lace wigs; you can now wear lace wigs without the need for adhesive. If you’re new to the world of lace wigs, here is where we’ll explain it all and start with the basics and break up the term. Glueless (not a real word we know, but is known and understood in the wig industry so we’ll use it here) tells us that unlike traditional lace wigs, the construction of the cap of this wig does not require the use of adhesive (glue) in order to be worn. The lace cap part means that the hair is still hand tied or ventilated in the traditional way onto a primary lace base. The lace will still require cutting back close to the wig’s hairline. What’s great about these wigs is that there really is a complete choice – you can have all the benefits of a lace wig without having to use adhesive.
How Do Glueless Lace Wigs Work?The wigs work by the use of reinforced lace around the perimeter, adjustable straps at the back and usually have clips attached to the side near the temple. The cap is constructed to “cling” to ensure the lace hairline lies against the head. Glueless Lace Cap Wigs… CostIf it's a human hair wig As the hair is still hand tied with bleached knots at the front, these lace wigs are similar in price to the traditional lace wigs that use glue. Your savings will come from not needing to purchase adhesive or adhesive removers.
Glueless Lace Cap Wigs… MaintenanceJust like any other type of human hair lace wigs – so treat as though the hair were growing out of your head; limit the use of heat styling tools, moisturise and condition to preserve the life of your wig. If the wig is made from synthetic hair and is heat resistant, use a low setting and a serum to avoid frizzing.
Glueless Lace Cap Wigs… ColourYou’ll be pleased to know that these wigs follow the same standard colour schemes as traditional full lace wigs.

Lace Front Human Hair Wigs… DisadvantagesWhilst the hairline will look natural enough, it won’t look identical to a lace wig that uses adhesive, but this is not necessarily a disadvantage if you consider all the wigs out there that are not made with a lace cap construction and cannot be tied into a ponytail.
