I've been using L'Oreal EverPure color care shampoo for about 8 months now and it's great. Someone on this board recommended using it.

Strange, Ghostbond XL was supposed to be made for people who have oily skin and sweat a lot. Maybe I'll give it a try down the road. Spending $35+ shipping for 1 bottle of glue and remover is a bi...

I'm on my phone looking at this but when i zoom in looks as though they didn't use single stand single knots at the front. Using singles makes the knots half the size and much less visible.

Post: RE: Removing the shine in the hair line

What kind of powder did you use? Some powders have a slight pearlessence <sp?> to them which I would think could make the grid stand out. Just thinking out loud.

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.

Post: RE: System comes off without lace release?

I use ORWG. It's the only glue that doesn't cause an adverse reaction for me. You could try Walker's Scalp Protector. This works pretty good for me. I can get about 6-7 days when I use this. I put on...

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

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.
