THE acid test...Holiday photos! - Mr.Burns - 12-17-2008 Here are my holiday photos. This holiday was really the acid test for my piece, I put it through hell to see what would happen: - Very windy beaches, with sand flying into hair and messing it up - Hot temperatures - Went to a water park, and the photos speak for themselves! Went head first down water chutes at speed and also did the "tower of power" where I dropped 28m at an almost vertical drop through water, so fast that it could have been about about 40km in speed (check the photo - yes, that is me flying down there!!) - Swimming and also showering - 10 days attachment <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://picasaweb.google.co.uk/lokuttara/TLHoliday">http://picasaweb.google.co.uk/lokuttara/TLHoliday</a><!-- m --> What's my secret? ST30 tape around the back and sides, with a strip of ST30 at the front, and touched up with some i-glue and basebond to get the very frontal lace sitting nicely. Re: THE acid test...Holiday photos! - Mr.Burns - 12-17-2008 Please note; while on holiday I didn't really care or worry about my hair at all. I just enjoyed my time and didn't fuss, so in some photos you will notice it hasn't been "fixed" to look exactly right, and I'm aware of the WFS which I usually avoid! But I didn't have any mirror so... :lol: Re: THE acid test...Holiday photos! - Bangless - 12-17-2008 Brilliant! Re: THE acid test...Holiday photos! - Mr.Burns - 12-17-2008 Thanks Bangless Re: THE acid test...Holiday photos! - kevo88 - 12-17-2008 Wow man, that's awesome!That really gives me hope cause I will be taking a mini vacation soon and I was a little concerned about how a piece would hold up. PS The girl looks like a keeper! Re: THE acid test...Holiday photos! - klifford - 12-17-2008 Awesome as usual Mr Burns ! Looks completely natural in every pic. The monkey pic is my fav. LOL! Re: THE acid test...Holiday photos! - Mr.Burns - 12-17-2008 Hey man... you will have no worries at all on holiday with your piece! Just use either ST30 or Ultrahold for the sides and back, and you will easily get 16 days (ST30) or a week (Ultrahold). One thing to remember, is that strangely for the first 3 or 4 days the ST30 feels "fairly" secure. But on the 4th or 5th day, after lots of water and heat, and a shower, it actually started to feel much more secure and tighter on my head. Strange eh :o Re: THE acid test...Holiday photos! - ToplaceUSA - 12-17-2008 Mr. Burns, In a word--outstanding!!

Re: THE acid test...Holiday photos! - Melonaid - 12-17-2008 Right on. Great hair, excellent vacation and a lovely companion, too. Well done! |
