Hey mate. The most realistic one is the bottom pic that you will be able to achieve, at least at the start I think. To get sharp short temples like that will take ALOT of practice mate!!! Have you read about hair tattooing? While I dont think it is for everyone, I have seen some pictures of Black guys and it looks very good. Even if you had that done for the temples and went with a topper? There is a guy on HD who has it named Donald, very short, curly african/american man and even has a little parting!!! I haven't personally experienced SFS but find French Very good. However, I think this is a skin tone thing. Even if the lace isn't fully attaached I can get away with it as its a very light lace, with a darker lace I really dont know!!!
