Not sure if you can get a few ideas off this ?

Cheers for that, are there any you or others here like? I'm looking for inspiration.
Once my hair gets over a couple of inches in length it gets a bit frizzy. So I was thinking of something like this,

But I don't know how it would react in the wind?
I also like these,

I don't know what sort of business you are in, but those styles are not popped into my mind when I read you wanted smart/business styles. Not that there is anything with those styles at all. But in no way do they strike me as business oriented

Can you post any links to styles?
I need as much help with this as possible. If I am to go down the 3/4, fullcap route.
Thanks.

Henry,
Those styles are perfect for a full cap. Whether or not a 3/4 would work would depend on the hair you are integrating.

I'm thinking of leaving around 2-3inches at the back. I'm letting it grow at the moment, and then the piece hair should fall down and mix with my own hair. This way no one will see my back hair as it is thin, but not very thin.

Without seeing what you are working with it's hard to say.
If your existing hair is thin you can't go too crazy with the density of the full cap where it matches up. On the other hand you are looking at longer styles so the full cap hair is going to lay over your existing hair which will cover it up to a degree.
What I would recommend doing is ordering an all lace full cap that extends all the way down in the back. When the unit arrives, cut off the lower part of the base where your existing hairline begins. If for some reason you can't manage to get your growing hair to integrate the way you want it to you can use the piece that you cut off to turn it back into a full cap. It's not going to cost any more and it's a good insurance policy when you aren't 100% sure how the integration is going to work.

I'll try to get some pics together, but thats a good idea about cutting later and having the fc as an insurance policy.
I'd order 2, but I'm not in a position where I can ever let anyone see me without hair. For those times when I want to give my scalp a rest, I'm considering a skin unit, or even having a horseshoe shape cut out of a piece, and putting a baseball cap on, so you see hair at the sides and back, if I have to pop to the shops quickly...hopefully the cap doesn't come off.
Do you think I can make wearing a fullcap 24/7 a reality?

What styles do you guys go for/like?
Ideally I want something smart, but then can style it casually too
