Mate, to go with a full cap for your first piece takes balls. So good on ya fella. I started with a topper and it made a difference, then with my full cap I just went all out and had the longish style I had wanted for years. It is easy for people to take the piss but I found that if it looks good and realistic people are more impressed than negative. I also found that if people ask, I'll crack a joke about looking like Donald Trump or something and that just makes people feel easier about it and ask questions. I would stay with the full cap, you ask anyone on here who have done it and they all say it is alot easier to live with, myself, JROB, iwantitback to name a few. To do a style with a lifted front, if the lace is attached properly then they will probably tell you have had something done but as it looks natural probably won't be able to tell what. Keep going mate!!
