Post: RE: finally wearing, some questions

Well done Waldo; welcome to the club. Sounds like you did overdo the gloop, but with GTBG it's easily remedied. It was a good idea to use such an easy adhesive to start with. I think most guys who ...

Your hair looks fantastic man. I was looking and looking at your pictures thinking 'this can't be a newbie in his first piece, perhaps these are the "before" pictures'. When you mentioned your front...

Yes, I think your instinct is right - if you brought it down to the scar it could look a bit unbalanced. If you keep it where it is but replace your thin Toppiky hair with nice healthy hair, that wil...

Hi Shabarinanth Your system looks really good, apart from the hairline - excellent color and texture match. You really suit having your hair back. The photo of the hairline is out of focus, and it w...

Hi Shabarinath If that whiteness is the base, then there is definitely something wrong. The base should either be transparent plastic ("skin") or fine transparent mesh ("Lace"). Either way, it shou...

1. The difference between TL100 and 150 is that 150 has a polythene ring around the back and sides, whereas 100 is just lace . The advantage of the ring is that it makes a good surface for tape and ...

Glad to help. 2. You have 2 options - (1) you make a template and order a custom system which is made to the shape of the template, so it is a perfect fit and you don't need to do any cutting, excep...

Stock pieces are made to be cut down to size. Could you cut the size you need from the stock piece if you cut away the poly rim? It's not a good idea to have poly immediately behind your hairline anyw...

Going for all lace is not a disaster - in fact a freshly applied all lace piece is the closest thing in terms of look and feel to having your full head of hair back. It is true that poly is easier to...

Hi fpstitan It may not be the fault of the stylist, because different people's body chemistry is different, and so they get different hold times from the same glue. Maybe it is just that this partic...

Hi Titan - I see what you mean. The bit of hairline that hasn't come loose looks great though, so I'm sure you are going to be able to get a good result when you have identified the adhesive which wo...

"Three mil" tape is actually 0.03 millimetres thick - ie three hundredths of a millimetre. So very thin, but not as thin as an application of glue. I wonder if you are cleaning and prepping your sca...
