You might laugh, but i would do all of that stuff when you make the transition. Grow facial hair a couple of months prior, then shave it when you go to the piece. Use styling products on your hair wh...

This is a fine example of rolling with the punches when dealing with issues such as thinning sides. It's all an illusion fellas. The cut, the style, highlights, styling product, gray hair, etc. can g...

Post: RE: what to do?

I'm all for improving realism but I agree with Fred- 100% perfection isn't necessary to pull off the illusion of having hair. Dino, is that a new full cap? Looks great as usual!
