Sorry, about the tangled hair, you can buy detangler at a pharmacy, or leave-in conditioner does something similar. Rub it gently onto the tangled bits being careful not to get it onto the base/knots...

Post: RE: Help, my non-Toplace piece has crumbled

The hairs coming through to the underside of the base are normal. That happens over time, and you just have to cut them off. It happens more quickly if you rinse the piece with water pouring from th...

There are a few template-making videos on YouTube. I think this is one of the best: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KFQX0Bv_8N8 Let us know how you get on.

Have you tried 3 mil tape for the hairline? It is not really tape, more glue in a tape format - there is no plastic strip. I find it works better than glue in sweaty situations. The look is not qui...

Post: RE: Hair system zone3&4 on head?

Sure, if your hairline is still good you can get a partial hairpiece for just the crown (a "crown topper"). Happy to help. What guidance do you need?

There are definitely a few videos of people who have kept their natural hairlines and placed a piece behind, which is also what I did at the start. They are not Toplace videos, so I don't really want...

Hi Viserion - yes the extra strip of empty lace at the front is standard. Cut it off carefully with a very sharp pair of scissors - nail scissors are ideal. Some guys cut right up to the front hairs...

Hi Viserion - you look great in those photos. They are a bit blurry, but I can't see any sign of the base. Could you take a close-up of the problem area in sharp focus?

Post: RE: tape/glue for extremely oily skin?

I haven't heard of any means of treating excess sebum production separate from sweatiness. Could it be a matter of diet? Do you have a particularly oily diet?
