Post: RE: Travolta's new piece

I think you could do Affleck's hairstyle with a piece, certainly for a one-off occasion, provided you had your own full time hair stylist. Of course it is fantastic work if it is a piece, but Affleck...

There has been a ton of press speculation and gossip about Affleck's hair over the years. I guess we'll never know for sure. His hair certainly looks good now. Here's a link to the photo I mentione...

Nice story Hersute. You're right of course; I am talking about the angst of the first year or so of wearing. As you get used to it it becomes part of you, and you no longer look for validation from ...

That looks very believable. The main part of the hairpiece looks like curly hair which has been straightened, and then you have the curly shaved hair underneath at the sides. I'm guessing the custom...

Yes, that's an excellent result on the hairline, and on the unit generally. How do you find wearing a topper compared with a full cap? Do you think you'll stick with the smaller unit?

Your sides don't look that bad - curly hair hides a whole lot. If you had straight hair you would look a lot balder than you do now. I think you are a great candidate for the standard oval "toupee" ...
