What is a Lace Closure Sew-In?

A lace closure sew-in is a type of hair extension installation where a lace closure is sewn onto the natural hair.

It typically measures 4x4 inches and is used to close off a sew-in weave, giving the appearance of a natural part and hairline.

How to Install a Lace Closure Sew-In

Installing a lace closure sew-in requires some skill and patience. Here are the steps to achieve a flawless installation:

Step 1: Prepare Your Natural Hair

Start by washing and conditioning your hair to ensure it's clean and free of any products. Blow-dry your hair and braid it into cornrows. The cornrows will serve as the foundation for sewing in the lace closure and weft extensions.

Step 2: Position the Lace Closure

Place the lace closure on your head, positioning it where you want the part to be. Secure the closure with hairpins to keep it in place. Ensure that the lace lies flat against your scalp for a natural look.

Step 3: Sew the Closure

Thread a needle with weaving thread and begin sewing the lace closure onto the cornrows. Start at one corner of the closure and work your way around, making sure to sew through the lace and the cornrow securely. Be careful not to pull the thread too tight to avoid damaging the lace.

Step 4: Install the Weft Extensions

After securing the lace closure, sew in the weft extensions starting from the nape of your neck and working your way up. Use the same method to sew the wefts onto the cornrows, ensuring each weft is securely attached.

Step 5: Blend and Style
