I can order a stock New Generation unit from the factory. You will have it in about a week. Just email me at [email protected]. The cost is $279.00. I'm working with the webmaster to put up a new shopping cart and we'll have the New Generations stock unit as an option along with French lace and thin skin (same as the TL 400).

John, can the new gen be a full cap? Curious on your thoughts about that. Also, will ventilation be an issue? In other words, can the v-loops be angled down - or in any direction for that matter - to facilitate a nice tight/short/down cut that's needed in the temples/sides above the ears/lower back areas of full caps? Or in even other words, are there any ventilation drawbacks or differences between this new gen vloop and a standard sfs unit?
This interests me because full caps tend to hug the scalp nicely anyway, and being a skin piece it seems that a good bond could be achieved with GTBG only thus making cleanup a breeze
If there are no ventilation limitations and if this is truly that thin (as thin as the original poster's) I'm all in for one.
Thanks in advance...xp

I'll check with the factory about it. The ventilation wouldn't be a problem. I hope I can get a response from them before they close for Chinese New Year (Jan 20-28). I'll post asap on this.

Just heard back from the factory about making a TL 700 New Generation full cap. They said it is not possible to make a good full cap in New Gen. The issue is the V loop knotting. It cannot be angled downward for the sides and back so it will not look realistic. They recommend either French lace of Super Fine Swiss lace as the best choices for a full cap.

Gotcha, that makes sense. Thanks for the information. I wonder if using injected hairs in those areas would make this doable. It would just be two different skin bases, one vlooped and one injected, joined at/around the upper temple area and around the head. Just a thought...
The idea of a having the ease of attachment with skin on a full cap is enticing.
