Review (4/5): Pretty good 1st silk closure
This is my first time trying a silk closure and so far, so good. I got tired of bleaching the knots on the lace closures, so I tried silk to match with my existing Brazilian bundles. I like it well enough. The silk does look more like a realistic scalp without the grid lines of the lace. There is a small section in the very front of the closure that is lace and it has baby hair attached, but I believe you can cut that part off. I chose to keep it on with the baby hair in place. The lace and the baby hair is not very noticeable, which I like. I might choose to cut it off next time because I don’t think the lace or the baby hair is necessary. I’m expecting to get a lot of use out of this closure. I plucked some hair from the part and I like the way it turned out.

After wearing the silk closure for a couple of weeks, I’ve decided that silk closures are probably not for me. It doesn’t sit as flat on the head as lace closures and that bugs me. Lace is much more pliable. The silk closure is surprisingly stiff and doesn’t mold to the shape of my head. I’ll be going back to using lace from now on.
