How to Use Coffee to Dye a Lace Front Wig
When shopping for lace wigs, choose a lace color that blends with your skin color. As a result, you flaunt a natural looking hairline. If you buy a wig style that has the wrong lace color, dye the lace with tea or coffee so that it matches your skin tone. The benefit of using coffee to dye your lace, instead of a commercial product, is that the coffee only changes the color of the lace, not the wig hair. Does this Spark an idea?
