Thanks for the replies guys! It looks darker towards the back because there was some left over concealer from the day before on the back. But yeah, that's still solid advice. I planned on sending in h...

I don't like my sides grown out. I look better with my sides short. For some reason the picture makes them look thinner than they look in real life. Probably just the contrast and off coloring of the ...

Your natural hair is still really thick. A piece will work really well for you. You could easily pull off that look. You'll need a low hairline to pull off that look in my opinion. Your temples are re...

Anty, the only reason I wouldn't recommend the thin skin would be because of his exercising. That could get pretty hot and uncomfortable I think. I could be wrong though.

I'd just start a new thread for the template. Make sure to wet your hair down when making the template. You'll get a better fit that way.

As for a natural hairline. This is a very close-up pic of my hairline from my first Swiss lace pieces attached with 4 thin layers of ORWG and parted out if the way so you can really see the skin. You ...

Good. You should be excited. I know that starting out wearing can be really stressful for people. The best advice I can give is to just go for it. Let's be honest, what do you have to lose? Just ask a...

Post: RE: In 1hr I am getting my hairpiece attached.

With your hair as short as it is I suggest you try a wax. I use Style Sexy Hair Control Maniac and it's AMAZING! If you don't want shine then try Style Sexy Hair Frenzy. It's a matte wax. Start off...

You know, you may be onto something with the PH. I tried an apple cider vinegar rinse on my hair and it feels so much better. Much less dull.

Exactly Streak. If everyone who wore hair didn't care that they wore hair and were just happy that they looked good, and people knew how common it was, then there wouldn't be any stigma to it.
