Post: RE: cutting system hair with clippers

To each their own. I'm glad you like your new look. But i do disagree with you on many points. I've had multiple women tell me how great my hair is. I've never had any tribble showering. No one has ev...

It's a full topper. The crown is part of the system. I can try to draw approximately where the system meets my own hair but even i can't tell in my pics, or in real life. I have to feel for the seam. ...

I think the system starts right about here where the red line is. I really can't tell but that's a close approximation.

I think you need a better cut in. The piece itself looks damn good. Color match is spot on, doesn't look wiggy at all. In your other thread you posted a pic where you can see your hairline, all be it ...

I would have him shorten the hair in the back and on the sides and gradually lengthen it as it moved forward if you want that swept forward look. I think this would allow for better blending. I think...

I have to disagree with you Minneapolis. My first piece was a French lace front and it disappeared almost perfectly into 3 layers of ORWG. Only if you were to shine a very strong light directly downwa...

I put my PURE in a spray bottle and just spray it on the lace. Works much easier. But what works even better is Autoglym Tar Remover. It actually for cars and what not but it doesn't harm the lace, ha...

You don't want to use ORWG for daily removal it cures in 24 hours and it's a pretty damn strong hold. You're looking at more than 10 extra minutes each day and I really don't think it would be good fo...

That has to be one of the worst hairlines I've ever seen on a piece. It's like a solid wall of hair. The contour is terrible too.
