    Posted: Feb 13 2012 at 8:15pm
I am deciding on a style to last throughout the summer. From March until July/August. I want to be able to wear my hair back and to the side, etc etc-- as I will be going to a few beach trips and swimming a lot this summer- but still have the security of having the back half sewed in- which do you think would be better for this?

Thanks ladies,

-M.

I used a lace frontal with a weave to test the waters on using glue before I dived into full lace wigs, and really liked it.  I used spirit gum so that I could easily clean the lace daily.  Bear in mind that you will need to readjust the frontal every so often as you would a closure, a closure would be less upkeep imho, less lace to deal with.

the closure i had was bothersome (re gluing, shifting and what not) so i couldn't even imagine getting a frontal although if i found one for a good price i might try it out.Wink

LOL

BTW the frontal wasn't that bad, I had to have it adjusted once during my install.   I used spirit gum for glue, so it was easy to remove and adhere.

Closure mama, frontals cover too much area so when it shifts and lifts it sounds like a nightmare, with a closure when it starts to lift, or shift back you only have to take up 4inches, frontal 13inches 

i have a frontal and its just sat here
