Thread: Full cap photo
Post: RE: Full cap photo
That's an excellent design - probably the most convincing hairline on a full cap that I have ever seen. I guess it must take a lot of time and effort to get that long exposed hairline looking perfect... |

Thread: full cap wearers
Post: RE: full cap wearers
Hi Anubi5
Have you tried specifying that you want the wigs ventilated downwards and flat to the base at the sides and back?
I am not a full cap wearer, but I have had similar problems with the sides... |

Have you tried shifting the direction of the ventilation? If you soak the hairpiece in warm water for a few minutes, you can get the hair to change the direction in which it is ventilated by gently p... |

Thread: Full lace vs Poly perimeter
Post: RE: Full lace vs Poly perimeter
1. I won't say that you never get a bit of shine off tape, but it is made pretty matte to avoid that happening. If the lighting is so strong that it is making your tape shine, it would probably also s... |

Thread: Full-body screeners at major airports

I was a bit concerned about this, for the same reason as Greenery, because I travel quite a bit with work colleagues, and I was worried about having my piece exposed by one of these machines. The sub... |

Hi Greenery. I wear all-lace units, but sometimes with a thin-skin strip around the perimeter. I can't be sure what I was wearing when I went through the scanners. I don't wear units with poly hors... |

Thread: Gluing Lace Together

Thread: Going Full Cap/Partial - Confused
Post: RE: Going Full Cap/Partial - Confused
Hi MChris. It would help a lot if you could post a photo of yourself, with or without your current system, so we can see what you have to work with. By all means blank out your face. |

If I recall correctly you (like me) started out as a Hair Club wearer. Isn't it just amazing to think how far things have come in terms of undetectability since those days?

Thread: Hair system zone3&4 on head?
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? |

Thread: Hairline *pic*
Post: RE: Hairline *pic*
That's a first class result, especially for a first go. The more mature hairline contour greatly adds to the authenticity of the piece. No one would ever suspect this wasn't 100% natural. |
