Looking for that fresh-out-the-salon look without the salon price tag? Mastering the art of a frontal sew in at home can be your secret weapon. Whether you’re going for a sleek middle part or voluminous curls, a well-installed lace frontal sew in gives you the flexibility to slay any style while protecting your natural hair underneath.

With some time, patience, and the right techniques, you can achieve a clean, realistic install using your own hands. Ready to learn how? Here’s a complete step-by-step guide to installing a frontal sew in at home, with all the tips you need to get a flawless finish.

What is A Frontal Sew-In?

A frontal sew in is a protective style that blends a lace frontal with hair bundles, sewn into cornrows braided into your natural hair. The bundles provide length and volume, while the lace frontal sew-in simulates a natural hairline and allows you to separate your hair in various ways.

Many people now opt for hd frontal pieces, which use ultra-thin lace for a scalp-like appearance. When combined with matching frontal and bundles, the result is a flawless look that turns heads and builds confidence.

What You’ll Need

Hair:

1 hd frontal (13×4 or 13×6 lace)
2–3 bundles of human hair (choose quality frontal and bundles that match in texture and color)

Tools:

Rat-tail comb
Needle and weaving thread
Edge control or gel
Hair clips
Lace glue or Got2B spray
Blow dryer
Wig cap
Scissors
Tweezers (optional)
Bleach and developer (optional for knots)

Step 1: Braid Down Your Hair

The first step to a solid lace frontal sew in is a strong base.

Wash, condition, and detangle your hair.
Cornrow your hair straight back or in a beehive pattern.
Secure the ends by sewing them flat against your scalp.
Keep the braids small and neat to avoid a bulky install under your frontal and bundles.

Step 2: Prepare The HD Frontal

To get a natural look, your hd frontal needs prep:

Bleach the knots to help them blend into your scalp (optional but highly recommended).
Pluck the hairline gently with tweezers to customize it.
Tint the lace using foundation or lace spray to match your skin tone.

These small steps will make your lace frontal sew in look like it’s growing straight from your scalp.

Step 3: Cap And Secure

Apply a wig cap over your braids.
Use Got2B spray or gel to secure the cap, then cut off the excess.
Apply foundation on the cap to help your hd frontal blend more seamlessly.

Step 4: Apply The Frontal

Now it’s time to place the hd frontal on your head.

Line up the lace with your natural hairline.
Sew down the back of the frontal first.
Apply glue or gel to your forehead, then press the lace into place.
Blow-dry on cool to set it, then tie it down with a scarf for 15 minutes.

A secure install makes the difference between a decent and a flawless frontal sew in.

Step 5: Sew In The Bundles

Grab your needle and thread—it’s time for the bundles.

Start at the nape and sew your bundles using the over-and-under method.
Layer them upward toward the top of your head.
Sew the final track just behind your hd frontal for a seamless transition.

Make sure your frontal and bundles match in texture and luster for a cohesive style.

Step 6: Style To Perfection

Use a flat iron or comb to flatten and blend.
Add baby hairs if you like, using small pieces pulled from the frontal sew in.
Set the look with mousse and tie it down again for a polished finish.

Maintenance Tips

Wrap your hair every night with a silk scarf.
Avoid applying too much product near the lace.
Refresh the edges of your lace frontal sew in every few days for a clean look.

You may save money and maintain the versatility of your designs by reusing your frontal and bundles if they are properly cared for.

Final Thoughts

Learning how to install your frontal sew in can be a game changer. Not only do you save money, but you gain complete control over your hair journey. Whether you’re wearing an hd frontal for the first time or a seasoned DIYer, each install gets better with practice.

So gather your tools, take your time, and create your own masterpiece. With a bit of patience, your next lace frontal sew in might just be your best one yet.
