13x4 Lace Frontals

About

13x4 Lace Frontals — The Standard Frontal, in HD and Transparent Lace A 13x4 lace frontal covers your hairline from ear to ear, 13 inches across, and runs four inches back toward the crown. That is 52 square inches of lace, enough for a middle part, a side part, visible edges and baby hair, and hair pulled back off the face at the front. It replaces your leave-out entirely, so none of your own hair has to be blended in or pressed straight to match. It is the most-worn frontal size for a reason: four inches of depth covers the part most people actually wear, and it is less lace to tint, cut and melt than a 13x6. Mayvenn carries 13x4 in both laces. HD lace is the thinnest made and disappears into the scalp with the least work. Transparent lace is sturdier, holds up better to repeated installs, and costs less, but usually needs a tint to match medium and deeper skin tones. Every frontal here is 100% virgin human hair on a free-part base, 14 to 22 inches, and ships free. 13x4 frontal questions What does 13x4 lace frontal mean? The numbers are the lace measurements in inches. Thirteen is the width across the hairline, ear to ear. Four is the depth, from the hairline back toward the crown. So a 13x4 frontal gives you a 13-by-4-inch strip of lace at the front of the head, with hair hand-tied into it so you can part anywhere inside that area. Which is better, 13x4 or 13x6? For most people, the 13x4. It handles a middle part, a standard side part and slicked-back edges, and it installs faster with less lace to work. A 13x6 frontal adds two inches of depth, which matters only if you wear a deep side part that starts far back, or pull all your hair straight back. The trade-off is 26 more square inches of lace to tint and lay, and a 13x6 is HD only at Mayvenn, so it costs more. Which is better, a 5x5 closure or a 13x4 frontal? A 5x5 closure sits at the top of the head and needs no work at the hairline, so it is the lower-maintenance choice if you wear your hair down with a part
