really need to get some answers before i place my next order

cheers Wink

Hi bro,

I am waiting on my order to arrive with a non graduated hairline. I believe it to be as thick at the front as it is on top with little to no graduation. Chech out Mr Burns' pics as he has a non graduated hairline. Will post mine once it arrives.
Be very clear what you want on the order form as i had to send mine back as it came in way too thin.
This is why i have called for an update to the order page as there is little to no info on things like hairline choice. It will make things a lot smoother when ordering, & may help avoid returns etc. Smile

Where are you based? There is Joanna of forever hair in London, who is good.

Here is a quick comparison.

Graduated hairline looks like this:

Non graduated looks thicker, like this:

Mr.Burns, you look better with the non graduated hairline...but graduated would be great in later years, for more realism.

Do you think you could get the same look with a fullcap? One that covers the sides?


Re: difference between graduated and non graduated hairline - Erlend - 05-16-2009

Graduated hairline can become a headache when shedding sets in. If you have good sides and are below 40 years, I would definately get non-graduated. If you order very high densities like 70%+ (not recommended IMO) then graduated harline would maybe be better.

yeah the non graduated looks alot better, more inline with colins age.


Re: difference between graduated and non graduated hairline - jade1974 - 05-18-2009

Thanks Spartan for your reply.
I live near Newcastle. How much does Joanna charge for a cut in at mate? My new topper should be here any day now. Been waiting 15 weeks as i had to send to back as the density was way too low. Hope it comes back as i ordered. Do you know of a good bleach for knots i can get in the UK?
