Growing out your edges under a lace closure ?

Hey Ladies,

since my alopecia problems several years ago, I've been struggling with trying to grow out my hair out and especially my edges.

When I started to use weaves as a protective style, I started to notice a tremendous amount of growth, which I was very pleased with. The only problem was the hair left out.... To keep my hairstyle neat, I made the error to flat iron it from time to time. Which ended with me beginning to have some bald spots here and there :badidea:

Anyway, some months ago I discovered the joy of using a lace closure... no more hair left out ! it helped me cutting down on my relaxing and made me stretch more ! BUT the problem is that my edges don't really seem to improve a lot...

So, any advice from some of you using a lace closure to grow out their edges/hair ?
or how do you think it would be possible to use a lace closure to help the hair rest a little and initiate some hair growth :) ?

EDIT : mind that I can reach my hair underneath the closure, it's not glued or smth

Are your hair edges braided up or do you mean the edges underneath the closure?
 
I don't think a closure will be helpful. In the front area you will have the anchor braids that will hold all the tension. For growing edges I suggest a upart wig in kinky texture. That way you won't have to manipulate the hair with heat.
 
Naphy, I have not used lace closures but you should heck out ebonycprincess on YouTube she has some create tutorials and gives the best advice. Good luck.
 
Where will it sit? If it sits on hairline or right behind it-- very hard on the edges.
