Post: RE: Need help with new pieces ASAP please! (pics)

Well, I found a solution for the color. I colored my hair with Revlon #49 Auburn Brown and it added just enough red tone to my hair to match the piece almost identically. I actually like a slight red ...

Here's a tip for applying silicone or anything like that. Don't spray it into your hair. Spray it into your hands, then run your hands through your hair and then comb through. That was you aren't gett...

Post: Help deciding on my first piece (photo)

Ok, So I've decided to finally take the plunge and get a piece. I've been reading off and on for years and have always figured I'd end up getting one and now is the time. I'm a full time and a half st...

What is the realism of this type of piece? That is my only concern. The area on the sides and back where my piece will mate up with my real hair is pretty short and my hair is fine. I'm worried about ...

Thanks guys. So will french lace give a good invisible look for the front hairline? When I ride the motorcycle I plan on always wearing a bandanna just to cover the front hairline to keep dust and dir...

Thanks for the info. I really appreciate it. The grey is mostly contained to my beard and a few hairs here or there on the lower sides. There's no grey on top yet. It's just bad light and a dodgy came...

I think I've decided on going with the TL250 over the TL600. Aside from the extra poly on the front I don't really see much of an advantage even for heavy activity and exercise. The TL250 still has th...

How long of an attachment do you get? And who makes this tape?

I have tried tape but i have a horrible reaction to every tape I've tried. It gets red, very swollen, and painful. Walker tapes are actually the worst for me.

I only wear an exposed hairline. I marked on my template where my hairline meets my temples so the poly lines up perfectly.

Post: RE: System comes off without lace release?

If you're using ORWG you could be like me. My chemistry just destroys glue. After about 5 days or so I can just lift the piece right off without lace release. I have very oily skin too.

Coolpiece.com has ORWG pretty cheap. That's where I order mine from. $6 for a half oz bottle or $64 for 12 bottles.
