Post: RE: ...time to set the record straight about Gary ...
| Does the exchange offer also apply to full caps? The Korean one I got is very sub standard. |

Thread: Some Full Cap Photos
Post: Re: Some Full Cap Photos
| Longer hair styles are much easier to pull off with a fullcap. Yours looks good, the density is right and the colour is nice. Are you going to use your own sideburns or the fullcap's? |

Thread: Me and My Wife at a Party (full cap photo)
Post: Re: Me and My Wife at a Party

Post: Re: Latest Full Cap Pics
| Also agree with keeping the sideburns short for the exact reasons you state. Longer they are the more fake they appear. Longer hair helps but only to a certain extent. |
