Thanks for the replies. The thing that I like about the stock is, from seeing pics, the density of the stock at around 65% is what I would want to order (for a first order at least) and I want freestyle with 1B hair. So in many ways I fit the stock unit perfectly, my only concern is with fit, but since I don't think my head is massive LOL I would think I could use it while a custom is being built. Plus I know I want to try the all lace system first, which are the stock units, then try an iLace system. I like the style and look of Rueben's hair and he uses an iLace system.

Question about knot sealer, this you would apply once it's cut in and styled, correct?

And one more question, what would you recommend as a leave in conditioner?

Much of that depends on the quality care given to the system. If it is regularly cleaned, had knot sealer, a leave in conditioner, etc, it should last as long as any other all lace system. Its just a TL100 SFS system with medium density, free style and body wave.

I just re-read this part and have a question, stock units have a pre-determined hairline? I can't alter it or cut it to curve as I would like?
