OUTRE HAIR 101: What is a Silk Lace Closure?

What is a silk lace closure

Closures are every weave girl’s best friend. Instead of blending your own natural hair, wearing a closure gives you the option to finish off your style with a piece that will match perfectly to the weave itself. Since your own hair will be protected underneath, you will have the benefits of keeping your own hair healthy (no heat!), while flawlessly completing your style. Read on to learn more…

Now, what exactly is a silk lace closure?

Well, a closure is a top piece of hair that’s intended to blend seamlessly with your weave. The purpose of the closure is to finish your style flawlessly so that it looks realistic and natural.

Silk lace closures are a special type of closure in terms of its construction. Here’s the lowdown on our new Velvet & Simply Silk Lace Closures:

Invisible Knots: Each strand of hair is individually hand-tied to a silk lace base, and is covered by another thin layer of lace to hide the knots, thus rendering them invisible.
Most Realistic Scalp Look: The purpose of the closure is for it to look as if it were your own hair. So, we constructed our piece on a neutral skin-tone colored silk lace base so that it looks more realistic.
Natural-Looking Hairline: We carefully designed the edge of the closure so that it naturally recedes towards the front.
Freestyle Parting: The best part about our silk lace closures is that you can part & style your hair in any direction you desire! Middle part, left side part, right side part – options are endless.

Last note: We just added silk lace closures to the repertoire of both our Velvet & Simply collections. While the construction of both closures are the same, the only difference is the type of hair: Velvet = 100% Remi Human Hair and Simply = 100% Non-Processed Bundle Hair.
