In the laced wig industry, transparent and HD lace wigs are the most popular.

What are they? How do they differ from each other? Let's find out. 

What Is Transparent Lace?

In wigs and hairpieces, a material that gives it a neutral and clear look is called "Transparent Lace" It is well-known due to its depiction of an undetectable hairline.

It is generally made from mesh material that combines Swiss and French lace. As the name represents, it is colorless, perfectly matching every skin tone. 

What Is HD Lace?

High-definition laces, often called HD lace, are high-quality materials used in human hair wigs.

They are made from ultra-fine mesh, which makes them highly undetectable and impossible to detect from where the lace starts and hairline ends. The highly thin material also ensures breathability and comfort.

The common styles of 13x4 wigs are: 

Straight Style

Compared to the straight style, these wigs are ideal for messy buns, up-dos, and half-up styles.

How to Choose a Perfect 13x4 Wig?

As discussed, 13x4 wigs come in various styles, lengths, textures, and colors.

So, how do you decide which one is best for you? Here is a brief guide consisting of the key factors you need to consider mainly while shopping for your next wig. 

Skin Tone

Buying a 13x4 wig that gives a natural hue is all a person desires. So, if you want your wig to be invisible, always buy one that matches your skin tone.

For example, wigs with transparent lace are unsuitable if you have a fair skin tone, as they are slightly visible on fair skin. So, go with the wigs with HD lace wigs for a seamless look.

Face Shape

The style and length of your wig play a crucial role in defining your facial features. A layered style that starts below the chin is perfect for round faces.

Similarly, people with square-shaped faces should go with angled bobs as they soften the jawline. People with oval faces are lucky in this case, as almost all lengths and styles suit them. 

Personal Preference

The most important factor is "your style and wish." Always prioritize the lengths and styles you want to go with.

If you think that long, silky, straight hair suits you best, the Brazilian Silky Straight 13x4 Transparent Wig is something you should go with.

If you are into vibrant tones, The Gag City Wig by Private Label is for you.
