John,
Thanks for sending the helpful DVDs and the base samples so quickly.
I watched the DVDs carefully and have to say the results look amazing. Michigan Baldy has got it down to a science/art.
On the styling section of the DVD, his hairline looks incredible. He did a great job with the robo-cutter on the sides and back too. He was even brave enough to cut the piece pretty short/spikey even though I liked the bangs better.

During day to day wear though, I have a few questions:
What's ones morning routine? If I were gonna use the acrylic ultra hold glue, would I ever wake up in the morning with the piece hiding under the pillow? :-)
How much time do I spend on the piece on a day by day basis? I would probably do weekly attachments every Sunday or something.
I like a hair length of 4-6 inches. My hair has some body wave (not curly) and looks good when a bit longer. Would this be easy for the blending?
Is it easier to maintain a short/spikey hairstyle or a longer one?

Again,
I thank this forum for all the help. It's been a godsend.
Jim.

Hi Jim in my short experience I have never woken up and found the hair elsewhere (Im a restless sleeper too) prob a bit of lift in the lace that you need to contend with in the morning thats about it. The only time I have come close to losing the small systems I use was when I used basebond for a couple of days had a hot bath went compleatly under the water and when I came out I came out without one of the pieces (ps I use 2 small pieces at the hairline)

wow 2 small pieces. I did not know u can do that!
Do u have a picture? It would really helpful.
Thanks,
jim.

yes sure see below

Wow, I cant tell where the heck they are! Good job with blending/attaching etc.
I assume u use lace, 65% density no grays, indian hair?
Is your method of attachment ultra hold?
How often do u take off/service?

spot on!!!

i use ultrahold and have to re attach every 5-7 days, but im still learning

saweet.
are your pieces like 2x2?
How small can you go with such small pieces?

You're doing a good job for a new guy though. That guy on the DVD I watched is like a professor at this stuff.

mine are about 1.5inx1.5in each its tricky nd takes time but im startin to get the hang of it I think. and yeah watchin MB kinda reminds me of when I first took up guitar and watched a jimmi hendrix dvd and decided one day i would be that good (all well heres to dreamin, cheers lol)
