Layla — Butterfly Cut Layered Wavy Lace Front Wig | 13x4 HD Lace
The butterfly cut is short layers stacked over long ones, so the top half moves like a shag and the bottom half still reaches your waist. Layla comes cut and styled — most units sold as "layered" arrive as one blunt length with a photo of layers, and you are expected to find a stylist.
Who this wig is for
For volume at the crown without density everywhere, and for long lengths that would otherwise sit flat. Suits round and heart-shaped faces particularly well because the shortest layers land at the cheekbone.

Styling and heat
Round brush the top layers back and away from the face while blow drying — that flick is the entire look. The long layers can be left in their natural wave. Do not straighten the whole thing flat; it collapses the shape.
How to install Layla
- Put on a wig cap and cut the lace, leaving about 1mm past the hairline.
- Cleanse your hairline, apply a thin layer of adhesive, and let it turn tacky.
- Lay the lace down, press with a damp cloth, and secure with an elastic band for 15 minutes.
- Lay your baby hair, part the unit, and style.
Care
- Wash every 8–10 wears with a sulphate-free shampoo, in cool water, in one direction.
- Condition the mid-lengths and ends only — never the knots at the lace.
- Air dry on a wig stand. Heat drying at the cap loosens the knots and causes shedding.
- Sleep in a satin bonnet or on a satin pillowcase.
- Store on a mannequin head, not folded in a drawer.

Questions people ask before buying this one
Does it wear shorter than the length I order?
The wave costs you one to two inches, and the layers are cut shorter at the face by design — the length on the label is the longest layer at the back.
What density should I choose?
200% if it is a short unit or you want it dramatic; 180% for everything else. Short cuts and blunt lines need the extra hair to hold their shape — density is what stops a bob reading thin at the ends. 180% is what most people picture when they picture a wig.
Will it fit my head?
Almost certainly. The cap is an average 22–22.5" and the straps take it from 21" to 23", which covers the large majority of adults. Measure once to be sure: a tape around your head, just above the ears and across the middle of the forehead, then round the widest part of the back. That single number is your cap size. If you land outside 21–23", email us before you order rather than after.
Do I need glue to install it?
Your choice. A 13x4 frontal covers ear to ear, so most people glue it for a flush hairline. It will also wear glueless on the band and combs if you keep the parting central and lay your own edges over the lace. The lace ships uncut — trim it against your hairline before the first wear, leaving an eighth of an inch.
Can I dye or bleach it?
Darker, yes. Lighter, take it to a colourist. Natural black human hair takes any darker shade at home without drama. Lifting it to brown or blonde means bleach, and bleach on a wig is a one-shot job — a colourist who works on units will get there without frying the ends.
How long will it last?
Twelve to eighteen months of regular wear. Straight units mostly die of heat. A heat protectant and a flat iron under 180°C will roughly double how long it stays silky.

Before you order
- Dispatch: 1–2 business days. Orders placed after 2pm Friday (AWST) go out Monday. Australian orders are quoted 3–5 business days standard, 1–2 express, at checkout.
- Shipping is free on this unit. Every length and density here is over the $150 threshold, so standard delivery costs you nothing.
- 30 days to change your mind — uninstalled, lace uncut, unwashed. Cut the lace and it cannot come back, so check the fit and the colour before you trim.
