Hi Everyone,

First off, Im glad this forum and Toplace exists, I can see what is possible! I have been reading the forum for about a week now and can honestly say I'm impressed on how far hair sytems have come. This is my first post and seriously thinking about buying a piece as soon as I get rid of the anxiety lol. I am a diffuse thinner and have had 1 transplant that didnt take all that well. I use dermatch but its gotten to the point where i need to cover the whole top and its beginning to be a pain, although I am thankful that the product exists! Helps alot! But I want the type of hair again that I see is possible on this site. One of the best pictures I have seen as ar as the style and color and cut and density I am looking for is Rod. I cant tell one bit if it is a piece and obviously thats what we are all trying to achieve. I have a lot of anxiety thinking about if i do it it wont blend in. So, 2 questions to start...do I send a hair sample to match my color (or does a stylist have to dye it to match) and how short can you cut the back and sides of the piece to really get a good blend.

There are not a lot of pics of back of heads to see how well the back blends and how to achieve the best results with blending sides and back. The hairline looks like it has come a long way so im optimistic on those results. Please let me know your thoughts, I need some guidance lol! Thanks everyone.

Joe
