Thread: wear without shaving
Post: wear without shaving
Is it possible to get away with wearing but not shaving your head? If so, how would you do it. How would the lace be attached on the sides and back of head?
Thanks |

Thread: A tape that's truly 'no shine'
Post: A tape that's truly 'no shine'
I have tried a number of tapes that claim to have no/little shine but they still shine on my low density piece. Anyone who wears low density and tape on their system?
Thanks |
