You know I didn't care for wearing a hair system when I FIRST got one and put it on. It seemed too dark too puffy etc.. It felt weird like wtf.. but that goes away pretty fast. Don't be nervous about it. You just have to KNOW that you can make it work and it will all fall into place. Brand new units sometimes are a little darker, shinnier and poofy but that all settles down in no time. and once you and others get used to the new look.. it really falls into place and all that anxiety over it goes out the window. You just have to be determined and be excited about your end result
