The Lagos Hairline 13x4 Wig is designed around a more detailed M-shaped front, a wide lace frontal, and a silky straight finish. The most important part of the installation is making sure the center M peak, temples, side tabs, and lace all sit in the right position before you begin any optional trimming or adhesive work.
This guide takes you through the process from a flat natural-hair base to the final clean-up. If you are new to lace customization, focus on placement first and make only small adjustments where they are actually needed.

Overview of Cap & Hairline Details
Before installation, look at how the front is built. The Lagos design combines the M-shaped hairline with a 13x4 frontal and pre-customized front, so placement usually matters more than aggressive plucking or cutting.
Lagos M-Shaped Hairline
The center peak gives the front a more detailed outline. During installation, keep the peak centered and let the surrounding shape follow naturally toward the temples.
13x4 Lace Frontal
The wider frontal provides coverage across the front and gives you more room to position the part and refine the hairline around the temples and sides.
Pre-Cut & Over-Plucked Hairline
Much of the initial hairline work is already done. Beginners should first check how the front sits before removing more hair or lace.
Glueless Design
The cap can be worn without a full adhesive install. Adhesive can remain optional when you want extra hold around the front.
How to Put On the Lagos Hairline 13x4 Wig Step by Step
Prep Your Natural Hair Flat
Begin with your natural hair as flat as possible so the crown and frontal can sit smoothly. A wig cap is not required for the installation shown in this tutorial.
Put the Wig On From the Back
Place the back of the cap at the nape first, then pull the wig forward gently. Settle the cap before adjusting the lace and make sure the left and right sides sit at a similar height.
Adjust the Front Lace Position
Use the four-finger placement shown in the tutorial as an initial reference. Then compare the position with your natural hairline and face shape before finalizing the placement.
Refine the Lagos Hairline
Push the Hair Back
Carefully move the front hair away from the lace so the M-shaped hairline becomes easier to see.
Add Light Hair Wax
Use a small amount to keep the front controlled while maintaining a clear view of the hairline.
Center the M Peak
Align the center peak with your nose so the Lagos hairline looks balanced from the front.
Custom Lace Trim & Essential Tips
Lace trimming is optional. Remove only what interferes with the fit and use small controlled cuts instead of one long straight cut.
Small Zigzag Motions
Work across the front gradually instead of cutting the full hairline in one movement.
Part First, Then Trim
Separate the hair around the ear first. The lace should lie flat without pressing against the ear.
Secure the Lace With Adhesive if Needed
Adhesive is optional. If you want additional front hold, map the intended placement first and keep the adhesive inside the guide.
Use a makeup pencil to mark the intended front position before applying adhesive.
Keep the guideline close to the intended hairline and clean the skin before application.
Spread a controlled, even layer inside the mapped area.
Keep your forehead relaxed while laying the lace, then use the band to help it set flat.
Adjust the Back Drawstring
Once the front placement looks right, adjust the back Flexi-Drawstring gradually. The fit should feel stable without creating pressure around the hairline or ears.
Take Your Time: Never rush lace cutting. Small mistakes are difficult to reverse.
Clean Away Guide Marks and Residue
Remove visible makeup-pencil marks or excess adhesive around the finished hairline. Work gently so you do not disturb the lace you just positioned.
The Final Look & Review
Check the finished wig from the front and both sides. The center M peak should look balanced, the lace should lie flat around the temples, and the ear areas should feel comfortable. Remove any remaining guide line or adhesive residue before finishing.
Conclusion
A natural-looking Lagos Hairline install starts with correct positioning. Keep your natural-hair base flat, center the M peak before trimming anything, and work slowly around the front and ear tabs. Because the wig is designed for a glueless fit, adhesive can remain optional when the cap and drawstring already give you enough security.
Take your time, customize only where needed, and clean the finished hairline carefully instead of trying to complete every possible lace step on the first wear.
