I just had to share this weird dream I had last night.

I dreampt I was offered a new 'scalp transplant' (and here's where it gets gruesome) where a dead man's scalp (yikes) is transplanted to another guy's head (living).

The aim to transfer the full head of hair from a dead man to a living man.

Anyway, I had this done and I remember looking in the mirror and seeing a slight scar where the 'join' was.

LOL. A crazy dream. But I think I can explain it. Only hours before I went to bed I was reading about the recent face transplant and watching toupee vids on YouTube. I guess the two got mixed in a dream.

Hehe, I've had very weird dreams too, we should open a topic in the Off-Topic section

Well, since my topic was hair related, I thought I'd post it here.

You never know, this 'Frankenstein' technique might be developed for real in the future. YIKES!

Looks like Histogen is going really good in his Phase II... anyways, we all know this 'advances'... and the famous 5-years-to-go... until then.. I'd just wear

Well having already 'had' the procedure in the dream, I too will stick to full caps.

Justin, What kind of tape do you use and is it stiff in the back?

I don't wear my full cap every day. I only wear it when I am going out, the theater, with friends, etc.

Normally I wear a hat. And I'm still new to wearing a full cap. Guess I've been wearing one off and on for about a year. I have a thin skin system so keeping it stuck to my head isn't a problem so much.

I use super tape on the sides and a bit of glue on the top. But I wouldn't know about more than a day wear.

I've never had any problems with the nape. I know a common problem is the hair sticking up at the back. I don't have that problem, maybe because my base is pretty long into the nape and on the neck. Don't cut the hair too short on the nape either.

I am thinking of going for a lace system next. My aim is to achieve the ultimate realistic look. It's all trial and error. I am only 75% there in my view.

You know that there are surgeons pioneering entire scalp transplants?
The person responsible for the face transplant is researching the possibility.

Talking about weird dreams..

Yesterday I was a FBI agent running after an assasin in the subways... I fell on my foot and I couldn't keep running, in this moment my hair popped out in form of a big rat and kept going after the suspect..

hahaha

I think that was the exact plot of the first TV episode of Kojak!!
