Pros and cons of wearing a frontal wig

Perculiar Perfection shared the good and the bad of sporting a frontal wig:

Pros

Versatility: Frontals offer room to experiment with countless styles, from deep side parts and two braids to half-up, half-down looks or a sleek, pulled-back finish.

Natural look: If you want the appearance of a natural hairline that stays convincing, frontals are the best option.

Cons

Maintenance: For beginners, it may be easier to visit a stylist for upkeep or choose a closure wig instead. Caring for a wig largely comes down to preserving the lace, and frontals require more time and commitment to maintain properly.
