Buying guide (read before you buy)
13x6 HD Lace Frontals — Six Inches of Parting Depth
A 13x6 lace frontal spans the hairline from ear to ear — 13 inches across — and runs six inches back into the crown. That is 78 square inches of lace against 52 on a 13x4, half again as much. The extra depth is the whole point: a deep side part can start further back on the head, a swoop can travel further, and the hair can be pulled off the face without a track showing where the lace stops.
Mayvenn carries 13x6 in HD lace only. Six inches of depth is a lot of lace to make disappear, and HD is the thinnest lace produced, so it sinks into the scalp instead of sitting on top of it — no bleaching or tinting needed on most skin tones. HD also tears more easily than standard lace, so cut it and lay it with a light hand. Every frontal here is 100% virgin human hair on a free-part base, which means nothing is pre-parted and the part goes wherever you set it. Eight textures, 14 to 20 inches, free shipping on every order.
13x6 frontal questions
What is a 13x6 lace frontal?
A lace frontal that spans the hairline from ear to ear — 13 inches across — and runs 6 inches back into the crown, with hair hand-tied to the lace so it can be parted anywhere inside that area. It sits at the front of a sew-in or a wig in place of your leave-out. At 78 square inches it holds 50% more lace than a 13x4, which is what lets a deep side part start further back on the head and still land on lace.
Which is better, a 13x4 or a 13x6 frontal?
Neither is better — they solve different problems. A 13x4 covers the hairline and four inches back, which is enough lace for any part along the front, and it is the faster, cheaper, more forgiving install. A 13x6 adds two inches of depth, so a deep side part or a swoop can start further back on the head and still land on lace. Choose 13x4 for a middle or standard side part. Choose 13x6 for deep parts, dramatic swoops and hair worn back off the face. The cost of the 13x6 is real: 50% more lace to bleach, tint, cut and melt down, and 50% more that has to stay flat all day.
What does 13x6 mean in hair?
The numbers are inches of lace. The first is the width across the hairline, ear to ear — 13 inches. The second is the depth from front to back — 6 inches. So a 13x6 gives you a 13-by-6-inch rectangle of lace at the front of the head, and the part can go anywhere inside it. The same convention runs through every lace piece: a 13x4 is four inches deep, and a 5x5 closure is a five-by-five-inch square at the crown.
What are the pros and cons of a 13x6 lace frontal?
Pros: six inches of depth means a deep side part, a far-back swoop and hair worn straight back all land on lace instead of exposing a track, so one unit covers several different styles. It is the most parting freedom you can get short of a 360. Cons: it is 50% more lace than a 13x4 to bleach, tint, cut and secure, so the install takes longer and costs more in the chair; the perimeter needs regular re-blending; and thin HD lace on a larger base tears more easily if you rush the takedown. If you part in the same place every time, a 13x4 gets you most of the benefit for less work.
What are the frontal sizes?
The common frontal sizes are 13x4, 13x6 and 360. A 13x4 runs 13 inches across the hairline and four inches back — the standard. A 13x6 keeps the same 13-inch width and adds two inches of depth for deeper parting. A 360 frontal runs lace around the entire perimeter of the head, which is what allows a high ponytail with a natural edge all the way around. Anything smaller — 4x4, 5x5, 6x6, 7x7, 2x6 — is a closure, which sits at the crown rather than along the hairline. Browse every Mayvenn frontal to compare.
How many bundles do I need with a 13x6 frontal?
Three bundles for most installs. A 13x6 covers more of the front of the head than a 13x4 does, so there is slightly less area left to fill with wefts — at 14 to 18 inches, three bundles plus the frontal is a full head. Move to four bundles at 20 inches and above, where the hair is longer and naturally thinner at the ends and needs the extra density to keep up with the frontal.
