I suppose doing as they say would yield a seamless transition but sounds like a lot of work. I just cut off the lace part that didn't have any hair as close to the hairline that I could. And around the ears I had to cut off lace with hair on it too since the wig was too big in the ear to ear measurement.
I took a closeup of the hairline so you can see it:
The color of the lace and Emmas skin matched very well but you can easily see the mesh pattern. This is without any glue or anything. But i need to adjust the wig carefully to get a snug connection. If you pull just a little on the hair it will be a gap. Probably why they recommend glueing for real women that go out and move around freely!
Here's how it looks when the lace is ~half a centimeter lifted from the scalp: I hope this helps.
EDIT:
Posted the same picture twice... now it should be correct
