Lace wig

[citation needed] Other ancient cultures, including the Assyrians,[1] Phoenicians, Greeks and Romans, also used wigs as an everyday fashion.

[2] There was intermittent use of wigs in many cultures throughout history including the prophylactic use of them in England in the 1600s to help protect from head lice.

[3] By the late 1600s, both wigs and handmade lace headpieces were common with European and North American upper classes as daily fashion.

After the American Revolutionary War, styles in North America changed and the wig as a sign of social class died out of use.

A small hook called a "ventilating needle", similar to the tambour hooks used for decorating fabric with chain-stitch embroidery at that period, is used to knot a few strands of hair at a time directly to a suitable foundation material.

Modern day lace wigs can be worn while doing activities like swimming and exercising, which make it a popular choice among alternatives.

The lace wig is usually attached with the assistance of glues and tapes, which are applied to the front hairline area.
