Closure Wig VS Frontal Wig?

Should I get a closure or frontal wig?

If you are new to lace, never worn a frontal, or simply low maintenance, you should purchase a closure wig. All closure units are glueless and very low maintenance. If you want to be able to pull all of your hair off of your face, part your hair in multiple ways, but are not ready for a frontal you can go with a larger size closure (5x5 or 6x6). If you don't mind maintenance ( adjusting baby hair, using mousse, and elastic band, you should go with a frontal wig. 

How long do wigs last?

Wigs has a life expectancy of 12 months-5 years. The determining factors of how long your wig last is based on maintenance (how well you take care of it), how often it is worn, and if you process (color) the hair. You can extend the life of custom units by replacing the lace (frontal/closure). The lace will get old before the actual hair.
