Less lace on your scalp means less to settle in and a faster lay-down than wrestling a broad closure into place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClear Lace, No Tinting Step\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nTransparent ships with nothing dyed into the knots, so it borrows whatever shade sits beneath it instead of arriving locked to one. Across a strip this narrow there is so little mesh in play that the 1B underneath comes through almost immediately, and nobody is staining or tinting a base to match ahead of install day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrush From the Ends Up\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nWork a soft brush from the tips toward the scalp before every wash and keep conditioner on the mid-lengths to ends. That ends-up habit is what stops a straight texture snapping where a comb would otherwise yank it, and it's most of what keeps the part sleek through a full install.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Grade That Grips and Installs Easy\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nTransparent is the everyday workhorse lace, holding up beneath a needle better than the sheerest grades manage, and on a strip this narrow every stitch has to count. It bleaches, it plucks, it holds its shape wear after wear without babying.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYaki Grain, Read Through Clear Mesh\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe clear base and the pressed-in grain work on the part together: the lace vanishes into your undertone while the low-luster texture carries the same quiet, low-shine finish a flat iron leaves behind, and it skips the glare a glossy closure drops on top. Pairing those two is the reason a straight closure earns its place on a center part.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSmooth It or Curl It, Then Reset\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nIt's real hair rather than fiber, so a flat iron presses it sleeker or a wand drops a soft curl, and it answers heat the way anything growing from a scalp answers it, with no melt and no plastic shine. Whatever you set holds for the day and washes back out for the next look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCornrow, Stitch, and Cap the Split\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nA track gets laid from a small square at the front hairline, then wefts sew on underneath with a curved needle, and this closure caps that part-and-crown zone so your own hair tucks fully away.

Its pigment is intact, which is why a lightener climbs through in orderly stages and gives back none of the patchiness a previously dyed strand throws. Match the strip to bundles you have already lightened by carrying it to honey blonde, or install it black and leave it alone. Both a 16 and an 18 are stocked, so it seats flush with your run.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ctable class=\"specs-table\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth class=\"spec-header\"\u003eFeature\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth class=\"spec-header\"\u003eDetails\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-label\"\u003eHair Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\"\u003e100% Virgin Human Hair\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-label\"\u003eTexture\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\"\u003eYaki Straight (mimics relaxed or lightly textured hair)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-label\"\u003eLace Size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\"\u003e2x6 Closure\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-label\"\u003eLace Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\"\u003eTransparent Lace\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-label\"\u003ePart\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\"\u003eMiddle Part\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-label\"\u003eColor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\"\u003eNatural Black\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-label\"\u003eColoring Capability\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\"\u003eCan be lifted to Honey Blonde\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-label\"\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\"\u003e16\", 18\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-label\"\u003eHeat Styling\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\"\u003eHeat friendly — can be curled or straightened\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-label\"\u003eRecommended Use\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\"\u003eSew-ins and custom wig construction; protective styling with minimal leave-out\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTwo Inches of Clear Lace Down the Middle\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA middle part on a straight texture is the most exposed line you can wear, because no wave falls across it to break up what the eye catches. That's the job a 2x6 transparent is built for. Two inches is the exact width a center part opens to and no more, so only a sliver of clear mesh ever shows, and mesh knotted without dye picks up whatever tone the 1B scalp beneath it puts there. On so little lace that pickup is near-instant, and the split reads as a line of scalp instead of a band of fabric laid across the crown. Where a wide closure would ask you to settle a broad sheet flat and blend its edges out, this one just caps the part and gets out of the way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat Runs Behind It\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis strip is responsible for the part and the ring of crown immediately around it. Everything else on the head comes from the \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/hair-extension-glossary#weft\"\u003ewefts\u003c\/a\u003e, so run yaki straight bundles behind it in the same pressed grain and the seam where the closure stops and the weave picks up will close on texture alone. Get that match right and the eye stops finding a part-piece resting on some other surface; it finds hair, parted down the center, all of a piece. The closure itself has no opinion about what sits behind it, which is why one piece serves a season-long install and a removable cap equally well.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Locks of Hair","offers":[{"title":"16\"","offer_id":45565170417724,"sku":"BRAZ-TRANS-CLO-YS-2x6-16","price":82.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18\"","offer_id":45565170450492,"sku":"BRAZ-TRANS-CLO-YS-2x6-18","price":92.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0629\/2294\/8668\/files\/hair-extensions-yaki-straight-2x6-transparent-lace-closure-natural-black-1b-0.jpg?v=1783781621","url":"https:\/\/locksofhair.com\/products\/hair-extensions-yaki-straight-2x6-transparent-lace-closure-natural-black-1b","provider":"Locks of Hair","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
