You might be wondering how can it look so natural and how can't people notice when someone is wearing one? The cap base plays a big role and how the cap base is made.


Full Skin Base


The reason why it is called a skin base is that a skin base resembles your own skin very much. A full skin base is made entirely of polyurethane or a “skin” material. It can blend in with your own skin seamlessly and provide the most natural front hairline and appearance. The only drawbacks of this kind of base are that it is not so breathable. Here are some full skin bases available in LaVividhair and you can find their details below:
