Are you struggling to hide your natural hair under weaves, wigs, or extensions?
Well, look no further!
The hair market has been introduced to a game-changing hairpiece designed not only to conceal your hair but also to deliver an impeccably natural-looking hairline; we’re talking about lace closures.
Closure wigs are a big deal for people looking to elevate their hairstyles. Beyond their ability to offer a natural look, they are also versatile and super easy to apply.
So, if you aim to achieve a fabulous look effortlessly, closure wigs provide an array of options worth exploring. However, we’ll be focusing specifically on 6x6 HD lace closures in this guide.
The 6x6 HD lace closures have taken the hair industry by storm, offering a 100% human hair closure piece and a level of natural look and versatility unparalleled by traditional closures.
But what exactly sets them apart from the rest?
Let’s go into the details.
Features of 6x6 HD Lace Closures
First and foremost, what makes these closures unique is their “high definition” lace material, and this is not just a marketing gimmick.
The HD lace or Swiss lace is a royal lace material that appears invincible when applied to the scalp. Unlike standard lace closures, the ultra-thin nature of HD laces makes them almost undetectable along the hairline, ensuring the wig-wearer can have an exposed but very natural-looking hairline.
Beyond variations in lace type, hair closures also come in different sizes and dimensions to address a range of scalp coverage needs. The significant difference is the amount of lace space provided; in this case, the 6x6 dimension features 6 inches of lace, making it larger than the standard 4x4 closures and 5x5 closures.
Now, you might assume that larger dimensions equate to heavier closures, but this couldn’t be further from the truth. Thanks to the thinness of the HD lace material, these closures offer a lightweight and breathable fit that feels as good as it looks.
What more?
The higher transparency of HD lace closures ensures they blend seamlessly with various skin tones.
Whether you are a seasoned stylist or hair enthusiast looking to refine your look, these closures are sure to elevate your hairstyling experience.

Protection for Natural Hair
Like most modern wigs, 6x6 HD lace closures minimize damage and promote healthier hair growth by providing a barrier between your natural hair and environmental factors, styling stress, or other potential harms.
Additionally, wearing a closure allows you to experiment with various hairstyles without exposing your natural hair to excessive heat or chemical treatments, both of which can lead to hair breakage over time.
Ease of Installation
One of the primary advantages of closure wigs lies in their effortless installation.
You don’t require an expert stylist to achieve a refined look; with a bit of practice, you can easily install and style your HD lace closure from the comfort of your home.
6x6 Closure Installation Tips
The problem folks have with wigs is the installation; for most, they seem daunting at best.
However, things are hardly ever as they seem, and installing a wig, particularly glueless ones like the 6x6 HD lace closure, can be surprisingly simple.
Here are some installation tips to help ease the process.
Customizing
While it may not be a mandatory process, customizing your wig before application can significantly enhance its natural appearance.
For this process, mount the wig on a wig stand and carefully comb it into your desired part placement. Another crucial aspect of customization involves plucking the hairline to adjust the hair density in specific areas.
You can use one of Private Label's Lace Tint options to further adjust the color of the lace for a perfect match with your scalp.
Applying water can allow the hair to slip out of the lace follicles easily.
Prep your hair
The next step is to make sure your natural hair is clean or prepped.
You can braid the hair flat against the scalp, make it into cornrows, or take the easier option of securing the hair neatly with a wig cap.
Secure the wig using clips and combs
HD lace closure wigs are glueless; as such, they have built-in combs and clips for extra security.
Position the wig to match your natural hairline and gently insert the clips near the scalp.
For additional stability, place the combs through your hair as well. Once both tools are securely in position, give the wig a gentle shake to confirm that it feels comfortable and firmly in place.
Cut the extra lace off and lay the edges
Once the wig is securely in place, the next step is to trim off any excess lace and lay down the edges.
Use sharp scissors to carefully cut away the surplus lace, leaving a small portion to blend with your natural hair or other extensions seamlessly. Next, apply styling gel or hairspray to tame any stray hairs and create a seamless, natural blend.
With the lace trimmed and edges laid, you’re free to style the hair to your liking.
The 6x6 HD Lace closures are available online and at some of local hair stores including Private Label Atlanta.
Maintenance and Care
Maintaining your 6x6 HD lace closure wig is crucial for preserving its beauty, natural appearance, and longevity.
Thankfully, its 100% human hair design makes the maintenance process pretty straightforward and similar to what you might do on your natural hair.
Here’s a detailed guide on how to care for your closure wig:
Washing
Before washing, you should detangle the wig using a wide-tooth comb to remove tangles and knots.
Once that’s done, gently wash the wig in a mix of cold water and a small amount of wig shampoo.
Swish the wig around the mix and rinse thoroughly to remove all shampoo.
Conditioning
After washing, apply a small amount of wig conditioner to help replenish moisture lost during the washing process.
However, you should avoid the roots to prevent excessive oiliness.
Leave the conditioner for some minutes and rinse again with cold water.
Drying
Always avoid using heat tools when the wig is still wet.
Instead, pat it with a towel to remove excess water and place the wig on a stand to air dry. If you must style it, then apply a heat protectant spray first to minimize damage from heating.
Also, use low heat settings to avoid exposing the human hair wig to prolonged and intense heat. Ultimately, we recommend you avoid over-styling to preserve the integrity of the lace and the hair’s health.
It’s also beneficial to trim the wig ends as it prevents split ends and maintains the wig’s tidy appearance.
Styling Options
As we mentioned earlier, a 6x6 HD lace closure hairstyle offers significant versatility regarding styling.
Here are some stylish recommendations to help you make the most of your HD lace closure wig
- Middle Part: This hairstyle is a refined and stylish option for that perfect, sophisticated look.
- Side Part: The side part creates a more voluminous look while also showcasing the wig’s natural flow. Consider a deep side part for added volume and dimension to your hairstyle.
- Half Up, Half Down: This hairstyle gives off a casual look. Just gather the upper section of your hair and secure it with hairpins, allowing the remaining strands to flow naturally.
- Curls: Curls are perfect for HD lace closures as they enhance the wig’s natural texture. Use a curling wand to create loose curls and rock up that special occasion.
- Braids: If you like, you can also experiment with braided styles, like box braids, braided buns, or cornrows.
- Messy Bun: If you’re looking for a laid-back yet stylish vibe, opt for the effortless charm of a messy bun. Gather your hair into a relaxed bun, leaving a few strands to frame your face.
- High Ponytail: Ponytails are sleek and stylish.
