The lace closure has been a great hair accessory to get a protective style and mimic a natural hairline look with its exquisite design. There are a lot of newcomers to hair bundles and closures, so some beginners keep asking about the difference between a 4×4 closure and a 5×5 closure.
Here we give you, especially beginners some insightful knowledge and tips about 4×4 closure and a 5×5 closure.
What Is A 4×4 Lace Closure?
A 4×4 lace closure is made of hair (usually human hair) and a piece of lace, and the lace size is 4×4, it has nothing to do with the hair onto the closure. The hair is usually hand-tied onto the lace to make it more natural when people wear it with bundles. A 4×4 closure covers the top of your head while creating a natural hairline.
Is There Something Special About 4×4 Lace Closure?
The 4×4 lace closure is a beginner-friendly type of closure because it has a smaller size of lace to maintain. The hair on the lace closure will gradually fall off with repeatedly styled, plucked, dyed, etc. So, the 4×4 lace closure is such a perfect one for wig beginners, and people who have less time to maintain the hair closure. And you can use this closure to create a middle part, or side part look.
What Is A 5×5 Lace Closure?
As the name implies, a 5×5 lace closure is lace with a 5×5 size. This type of closure is also used to close off your sew-in styles. A 5×5 lace closure is recommended to people new to wearing lace closures compared with lace frontal.

The Difference Between A 4×4 Closure and AÂ 5×5 Closure
Attribute | 4×4 Closure | 5×5 Closure |
Size | Covers a 4×4 inch area on the scalp | Covers a 5×5 inch area on the scalp |
Coverage | Offers less coverage, mainly suitable for middle partings | Provides more coverage, giving a more natural look, especially for the middle and side partings |
Versatility | Limited to fewer styling options due to smaller lace area | Allows for more versatile styling options due to a larger lace area |
Price | More affordable, making it a budget-friendly option | Generally more expensive due to the larger lace area |
Natural Look | Can still look natural but may be more noticeable at the edges | Provides a more natural hairline appearance with a seamless blend |
1. Different closure sizes. The most obvious is that they have a different lace space.
2. Price. The cost of a lace closure depends on many factors. One of the things is that larger lace will cost more because that larger space needs more lace and hair to finish a whole product. So a 5×5 closure usually costs more than a 4×4 closure.
3. Styling options. Larger lace spaces can have more fullness and versatility. It is hard to create a half-up half-down style by using a 4×4 closure. But a 5×5 closure can give a frontal look and can get a deeper part.
How To Choose the Right Closure for Yourself from Different Closure Sizes?
1. Larger lace space has more styling options but maintenance of the closures is usually high-priced.
2. If you are new to wearing closures or wigs, I highly recommend starting your journey by using 4×4 closure or 5×5 closure. But if you are voting for more styles and deeper parts, lace frontal will be a great option.
3. Choose a lace color that can perfectly melt with your skin. The lace closure wig is the best type to create a natural hairline and matches well with all skin colors.
