Somebody Lied to You And Your Lacefront: 9 Celebs Who Need a Lacefront Wig Intervention

August 7th, 2012 - By Clarke Gail Baines

Lace fronts have been around for as long as folks have been wearing wigs in general (or something like that, I could have just made that up…), and while celebrities love them almost as much as they love attention, sometimes those lace fronts don’t show the love back. Whether they’re pulling at the skin or making you look like you either have the shortest forehead or the definition of a five-head, it’s clear the lace front revolution needs to end. Over the years, many of our favorite ladies have donned these Barbie-looking wigs, and in the process have had some lace front travesties. Check out the carnage and do what you can to avoid the same missteps with this look, if you must rock it…

    All wigs usually look fake! so what do you expect them to do besides wear their real hair? You know they not because they perform and cant afford to have frizz mess up their do. I imagine if you (the author and anybody else laughing at these women) wore a lace front it would look just like theirs. Lace fronts are about as natural looking as one can get wearing a wig. Yall seem to be looking for every tiny detail and every flaw for everyone. Personally i think dont think Beyonces’ second picture looks all that bad and neither does the 2nd to last of lil Kims where she has the beautiful black curls going on.

    I cannot believe there’s so much hatred amongst black people by black people! It’s their choice to do whatever they want to their hair! I myself have natural hair that is protected by my weave because of my heritage, my hair won’t curl, nor would it stay styled after I did it. But I do hate those lacefronts to the 5th power!

    • SelfLove

      Wait, your heritage makes you wear a weave? Yeah, okay. Nobody is hating, we are trying to help them, I love Kelly Rowland so much and it saddened me to see her up here amongst others…they just need to get it together. Just because someone doesn’t agree with something you do doesn’t mean it’s hate.

    I just saw a picture I had of a sew-in from a year ago, tragic. God forbid you’re older and have hormonal hair loss, high blood pressure, or heart meds. You’re hair will go through changes. Have mercy! It’s just been 3 mos and my hair is starting to get back to normal.

  • ♥kiss♥ my♥passion♥

    As usual I’m going to stick with honesty: I am a proud wearer of lace front, full lace, wigs that don’t eve have that lacy stuff, etc. If you don’t know how to wear it or you are using the wrong kind of adhesive, or you go out and you know you are going to be in unnatural light…you knew you were wrong for that! LOL, Lil’ Kim she has had some pretty funny moments as well as the Braxton Ladies.

  • theBAYAREArealist

    some might think your bob looks tired, limp and dry while u think its fly. dreads can be beautiful but to each their own.

  • rocklesson86

    This is why I am going natural with my hair.

    • SelfLove

      Great decision! I wish you the best.

  • rocklesson86

    Hate wigs and weaves in general. People can always tell that is not your real hair.

    • theBAYAREArealist

      from my years of hair obsession ive come across plenty of women who rock weaves with a more natural texture(not silky) and a realistic length that make it pretty much undetectable. the obvious weaves are obvious to everyone. my most common sew-in style has left friends and family members floored when they realized it wasnt mine. i go super long or short. sometimes us weave wearers aren’t trying to fool and if we do it right, we can easily fool as well. hell, there are ladies with real, healthy hair and ppl assume it’s weave.

        years ago when my hair was relaxed, my classmates always thought i had a wig on, and i sported a bobbed hair style.

    • ijs

      You’d be surprised how many weaves and wigs you probably mistook for real hair.

      • rocklesson86

        That is not true. I can always tell when someone is wearing a weave. They have a different texture than real hair.

        • ijs

          And that’s the thing. You can always tell when someone’s wearing a weave when it’s obvious.
          If you mistook a weave for real hair, YOU WOULDN’T KNOW.

          • rocklesson86

            I know what a weave is and I have not once mistook a weave for real hair. I know what real hair looks like. You can try and get your weave look like real hair, but I will always know when a person is wearing weave.

            • ijs

              *deep sigh* Reading comprehension clearly isn’t your strong suit.

              • rocklesson86

                You said that if the weave is obvious you can tell it is a weave. Am I correct? What I am saying, it doesnt matter how good the quality the hair is or how well the weave was put in. I will know it is a weave. I have never mistook a weave as someone’s real hair before in my life.

                • lol

                  There’s a key statement in all of this that’s not getting through your head.
                  I stand by my above comment. *drops mic*

      if you match your natural hair’s texture and length wigs, weaves or hairpieces can be undetectable.

  • mil

    y’all laughing but…how many of y’all will post a pic of your hair so we can compare lol

    Oh don’t worry I’ll definitely wait….( ._.) *twiddles thumbs*

    • TPayton

      exactly!

    • anon

      I would but I don’t know ya’ll! lol

  • troll

    y’all laughing but…how many of y’all will post a pic of your hair so we can compare…

    Don’t worry I’ll definitely wait. *twiddles thumbs*

    • theBAYAREArealist

      fail. it is not even a little stretch to believe the average woman does not walk out of the house with hair that bad. maybe if u go to a walmart in atlanta though.

  • yuh

    It’s funny because… lace fronts get an unfair bad rap because all people see are the bad ones. The lace fronts that are actually good are passed off as a weave or real hair. Trust me, I’ve had mine mistaken for both. Yes by black women lol.

    • GeeMoeNettie

      It’s funny how NO ONE thinks their lace fronts are horrid even when they constantly hear that EVERYONE’S lace fronts are horrid!! lmaooo The “Not Me” crowd grows by the day.

  • Ms_Niccirenae

    Lil Kim’s lacefront actually helps her embrace that “Madame from the Muppets” look…in my opinion.

  • Hotchicky

    Buckeey’s unit on Love & Hip Hop is criminal.

  • Tweety_slim

    Kim’s rouge on the nose and Jennifer Hudson’s bosom…

    • dee

      yeah JHud boobs looks weird in red dress

  • LeeLeeC

    Off topic…I love Kim…but if Biggie came back today…I wonder what he would say if he saw her in all her beautiful plastic glory…???? SMH

    • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1438551270 Jessica Lucinda Williams

      good question. i think she is still grieving, because this is too much…even for her!

    • http://twitter.com/verylittlemo First NAME: Morgan

      I’ve been saying that there are five things that should have never been brought into the black community: one of them is lacefronts. I can’t stand them. They’re so ugly.

  • ANOTHER ETHNICITY

    I REALLY DONT THINK THAT BLACK WOMEN GET IT. SORRY BUT YOU ALL LOOK SO RIDICULOUS IN THOSE LACE FRONT WIGS. THERE IS NOT ONE THAT LOOKS OK ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU SEE GLUE ALL ALONG THE SIDES. IT LOOKS HORRIBLE. DO YOU ALL HATE YOURSELVES THAT MUCH TO WEAR SUCH HORRIBLE WIGS?

    • Kay

      Why are you on a black woman’s site downing black women?

      • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1438551270 Jessica Lucinda Williams

        trying to feel relevant.

  • baddvixentype

    i still think tyra’s red hair is cute.

    • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100002192987197 Alexis Daniels

      TYRA OR J.HUDSON DON’T REALLY DESERVE TO BE ON THIS LINE UP……THERE HAD BETTER BE A PART 2 BCUZ TRINA, N FEW OTHERS ARE IN VIOLATION!!!!

    • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1438551270 Jessica Lucinda Williams

      i agree, i couldn’t see anything bad about Tyra’s red hair. it was really cute.

    I swear those lace front wigs look like helmets with hair on them. In the city I live in there are a lot of bald horses because of this trend.
