Post: RE: front line ripples with tape.

When using all tape, I prefer blue lace. Apply to scalp first, then fit the piece in the same manner as using glue. A little stretch is necessary IMO, but only a tiny bit. With tape, I find that doing...

Post: Re: blue lace tape vs blue lace support

I'm not certain, but I think there were two different thicknesses of blue tape. Was this in contours, or on a roll? The roll that I got did not say "lace support" on it, the contours do.

Post: Re: Curly Hair????

I've had mixed results with curly hair, lately I've been wearing a short style with straighter hair. It does seem that remi hair can be stiff when permed, the regular processed hair worked better.

The only way that I've found that works is to soak the system in DeSolvit, or GooGone, for a few hours or overnight if possible.

That should not be enough to matter, although density can vary. I've used thinning shears a bit here and there, mostly just worn them and natural shedding will thin it out over time.
