    Thread: An ultimate backup
Post: Re: An ultimate backup

I used clips in my earliest pieces. Clips do contribute to traction alopecia due to the stress the clips put on the side hair. I'd recommend using the tape all around instead of the clips.

Hey Count, That's a great look at you on your website. If you're wearing a piece in that video, then it's the best piece I've ever seen. You seem like you're very good at your work too.

Post: Re: What do you think?

I would go along with JRob on this. That sounds about right to me. And yes, that style can be achieved with a full cap. I do like all lace for the full cap. It makes for a totally uniform look.

very good question. I think it depends on the ventilator. Sometimes I get the wall, sometimes I don't. Maybe ask for a "thin" or "graduated" hairline. Even better, you could try sending a picture of t...

If you have good hair in the nape, I think it's not a bad idea to leave that hair. If you don't, I think you can just shave it all off or use concealer to thicken the nape hair. I currently use about ...

I have to agree with JRob. For a man's full cap, all lace has worked the best for me overall. Maybe it's different for a woman's full cap, since the hair is much longer.
