How to choose a right base among all these different options out there? Our Base Guide here is to help you choose easily.
Here we will explain the differences among different base patterns, pros and cos, so to help you find the one that will work for you considering the lifestyle, living environment and hairstyle that you want to have.
Full Lace Bases
Lace is soft, lightweight, delicate and totally breathable.For a lace base, we
usually use single knots in the front hairline and double knots elsewhere,
which helps to create a
natural hairline. If you exercise often, a lace base is your best choice as it is breathable.
Typically,
a lace base hair system can last 4-6 months with the correct care and maintenance.

Skin Bases
A skin base, as the name suggests, it looks and feels just like your own skin.
Skin
bases which measure thinner than 0.06mm offers you a super natural and undetectable hairline that you
can expose the hairline and have a slicked-back hairstyle.

base hair systems can last more than 6 months. They can carry medium thick hair like 120% or 130%
density.

Silk Base
A silk top base creates the most natural and scalp looking hairline. Using a
tri-layer system, when the hair is knotted,
the knots are made below the silk concealed between the
layers, the hair is then injected through the silk material making the knots 100% invisible,
giving
the illusion that the hair is growing out of your scalp.
