Two lace options dominate every wig conversation: the 13x4 frontal and the 5x5 closure. They look similar on a shelf, but they behave very differently once installed.
What is a 13x4 frontal?
A frontal measures roughly 13 inches ear to ear and 4 inches front to back. Because it covers the whole hairline, you can part it in the middle, on either side, or sweep everything back, and the hairline stays natural at the temples.
What is a 5x5 closure?
A closure is a square of lace, 5 inches by 5 inches, that covers the crown area. It gives you a natural-looking parting space but with less freedom to change the parting, and it is usually lighter, quicker to install and easier on the budget.
Which one should you choose?
- Choose a frontal if you love versatile styling, high ponytails or a swept-back look.
- Choose a closure if you prefer one reliable parting, everyday wear and a simpler install.
Care tips for both
Wash with sulfate-free shampoo, condition the lengths rather than the lace, and let the unit air-dry on a wig stand. Not sure which suits your face shape and lifestyle? Our stylists at ZEY HUB Plaza, Wuse 2 will help you choose in person or on WhatsApp.
