Thread: combing matted hair
Post: Re: combing matted hair
After I get out of the shower everything is matted to my head and wet.
I usually brush my teeth, shave, get dressed, etc to allow the glue or tape to rebond itself from the heat of the shower...

Thread: Photos of my base - showing temple coverage
Post: Re: Photos of my base - showing temple coverage
Very cool! One of the things I always noticed about hair piece "before and after" pics was the obvious recession on the sides and the normal hairline on top. This eliminates that problem!

Thread: Very athletic people - what do you do?
Post: Re: Very athletic people - what do you do?
I agree completely with using tape. I was a glue guy for a long time, but then after it heats up, the bond can release, or slide.
Tape stays in place and is ultra strong!
I had my piece taped with ... |

Thread: Ever use a tape called Geo Bond?
Post: Re: Ever use a tape called Geo Bond?
Yep, it is the Proflex tape.
I feel its awesome! Even better than blue liner. Has anyone tried this Proflex tape versus ST-30?
How do they stack up against one another? |

Thread: lace system with poly perimeter?

Post: Ever use a tape called Geo Bond?
I just picked it up at my local hair piece salon. I recall them using it on my piece back when I went to them. I remember getting 2-3 week bonds with it.
Anyone use it?

Thread: Synthetic hair
Post: Re: Synthetic hair
Yeah, synthetic hair is junk. Some of the girls at my salon have used synthetic hair for extensions and its trash. And trying to color it is next to impossible. It seems to have a mind of its own. |

You don't need your piece to go that far down the side of your head. If you get the piece to just cover the top of your head, you would be fine. Going down that far is going to be nearly impossible to... |

After you apply the tape, you have to really press the tape down onto the lace to get it to attach. Try using a straight edge of some sort to rub over the tape so th... |

If you still have good hair on the sides and back, go with a topper.
Your hair doesn't grow that fast. Even if you get frequent haircuts, that's still 4 weeks. Most guys go up to 8 weeks.

I'd like to see pictures without the flash. If the flash makes that much of a difference, I can totally see a hover effect where the piece meets your side hair. |

I think if you got someone to cut the sides and back a bit better so that it blended, you would be alot happier. It seems to have a disconnected look right now. |

This one guy I know gets his cut down to a number 2, which is a 1/4 inch. I wouldn't personally go that short. I know my sides for blending in some areas are as short as a half inch. |
