Quote:Yeah it is--- but I already told you that it is not difficult to get and maintain a good color match.

If you, as someone with zero experience wearing, choose to not to believe this then there isn't much anyone around here is going to be able to do to help you.

Ok, point taken.

Quote:Hi Jonesy, I guesss you have to ask yourself if a natural looking hairpiece (even though that is not looking your best) will be an improvement on how you look and feel about yourself now. If yes, why not just go for it?

Yes it will be an improvement. I am going for it, but I'm doing what you're saying below.

Quote:Or if you are not sure, maybe you can do what I'm gonna do. I'm ordering a piece once I get a template done. When it arrives, I will see if it blends well with my hair. (send it back if it doesn't). After that, I'm going to keep the piece until the day I feel that the maintainance of wearing the piece will be a worthwhile jump from my current thinning hair.(I'm also kinda scared of shaving my hair) But from what I see from this forum, the maintainance seems to get easier as you get the hang of it.

Yes this seems to be the best strategy. First get things perfect, then apply. I too am scared about the shaving part, there is NO going back after that. No concealer will save you from a shaved top...

Quote:I think maybe your main concern is something might go wrong without someone to guide you?

This too. this entire first time of doing everything is very scary. I have to take a template while I still have my hair, and it makes things inaccurate. Then shaving the top to match the hairpiece (which will be done by a stylist), then applying the wig an hoping it will blend well. Then attaching it myself... lots of things could go wrong...
