Re: new customer
Mosjoo,

Although I can't answer all of your questions for you, I'll make an attempt at giving you the information that I know.

About bases, I think there is a lot of debate about French vs. Swiss lace. Which is better? It really depends on preference. I don't have a French lace piece so I don't know, but I ordered mine based on what a lot of people have (which is the Swiss lace). I think the consensus is, Swiss lace is very undetectable. A concern that some people had was: "but Swiss lace is so fragile". I think when people read this, they imagine a base that falls apart in your hands. Trust me, I am not fragile and my last Swiss lace piece lasted half a year. To give you an example, I would hold the wet piece (when it's unattached from my head) and swing dry it.

In summary, if you want realism, the majority of the people swears by Swiss lace for the front. Don't worry about it being "fragile" b/c it isn't. The only way for you to damage it is if you are deliberately trying to damage it (i.e. cut it in half with scissors), otherwise it should be fine.

As to the color, I have no experience so I can't tell you. TL suggests sending in a sample of your hair so they can match the color. Since you have experience with coloring, perhaps all you'll need to do is specify to them a color (refer to the color chart they have), and tweak it to your liking.

As for the pictures, I think it's better to send those pictures to whoever is giving you the cut in. The factory only makes pieces according to certain default lengths (instead of specified styles). Make sure when you order, you specify how long you want it.

I think that's all I could do for you. Many others on here will be a lot more knowledgeable about your other questions.

On yes, glue and tapes depend on the individual person. Most people use Walker No Shine tape for the front. If you prefer glue, many people use Iglue.

Hope that helps somewhat!

Leamon
