Pictures pictures pictures - leamon - 09-11-2008
Hello guys and gals, I have a proposition for everyone. How about we post more pictures of ourselves with our beautiful hair, up on this forum? I always find it so enjoyable to see how creative everyone gets or how beautiful everyone is looking.
Why not make this like a "wall of fame" where we can share with one another what we do with Toplace? A little bit of "bragging" is actually not negative in this case, I'm sure we all would enjoy seeing and getting styling tips from one another.
So what do you guys think? Yay or nay?? I'd post a pic up, but I'm still waiting for my piece.
Hope to see you guys soon!

Mr. Burns,
What density and wave curl is your piece?
Re: Pictures pictures pictures - leamon - 09-12-2008
Mr. Burns,
Thanks for the pics! So you're the guy pictures in Toplace's main page huh? haha...now I see why they chose you to represent them. Your hair is as good as it gets. It's absolutely flawless.
In the first set of links, may I ask what your specs were? Espcially in the front, it looks so real.

thanks man, glad you liked it!!
The specs in those photos were actually not what I wanted - I wanted a higher density. But it looked good so I went with it. I'd say about 60% or even less. After just 4 months of wear, the density was lower than was acceptable and I had to retire it. Usually I get my pieces to last 6 months or even 7.
It's just straight hair. Sometimes it comes with a bit of curl and it doesn't seem to do any harm. Sometimes it comes completely straight or with a slight body wave... always works out ok. It's the cut that matters. Every hair system is different because of the hair used and different ventilators. You just work with what you have to get the best result you can. Specs are nowhere near as important as I thought they were when I was a newbie... it's all about style, attachment, cut in, and colour match.

You'll find them posted on the old forum!

We've all enjoyed the humorous postings of The Count on this forum---now we actually get to see him! In his own words:
Okay ... Here are the photos ... just fresh from the James
Bentley Salon ... and my new life as a
hair wearer ...
The Blonde lady holding the new dead rug rats
in her hair is Di Di - NYC toplace ...stylist...
The Blonde piece I am wearing
is one of the pieces before she dyed them .....
It is kind of heavy ... next time ... we will order lower
density pieces.... because di di mentioned she doesn't
know how the weight of the hair will effect the longetivity
of the base ....
I have a HEAVIER Ponytail .....
I may go shorter SOON ... unless I adjust to
this mass of hair... She worked on it .... dyeing .. cutting
the two pieces from 10 ... tilll almost 2:50 ....
A lot of work .....
(She works for her money .. that's for sure!)
I wonder what the piece will be like when I wake
up in the morning ...
Will I be mister fixit with a roll of duct tape ... or will
I look like the witch in the wizard of oz ...
or worse still ... Jimmy Hendrix ...
as he is now ... decomposing ....
We'll see ... I'm glad it is a cool day ....
My head FEELS heavier ....
Day 1 ... or .....1 Hour so far has gone by as a
hair wearer !
Riding the subways home ... no one gave me
a second glance ..... but they all gave the leggy
blonde riding next to me ... the 'glued-eyeball'
test ....
I'll report on my experiences for the benefit
of all the newbies ...
