thanks guys

I did it 5 months ago or so.
The most psychologically traumatic thing was having her shave my thinning hair on top. I looked in the mirror and I wanted to scream LOL.
But after she taped the piece on and cut it in and blended it with my hair. . . I looked 10 years younger. No doubt.
What sucked for me was I was perspiring during the attachment process which made the front lift 2 hours later. . .
No problem. I calmed down and re-attatched. Was good for over 7 days.

I told my stylist that if I did not like this thing, I would just shave the rest sides and back off and that's ok.
She said: "You won't cuz you will love it".
She was right.

Things worked out for me because
1) I got a light density piece.
2) Color and wave was a great match with my hair.
3) I did my homework and studied these forums big time.
4) I had some time off from work.

I keep learning though.
I've tried all tapes/glues out there. What works for me is:
when I'm Lazy: Tape perimeter bond. With a strip down the middle
when I'm not lazy: tape sides and back middle. Glue ghost bond for the front.

Average de/re every 8 days. takes 30 minutes to casually have this done on my own.
Really, it's no big deal.

Most ppl did not say anything/notice. . .
My closest friends noticed and admitted it looks great.

You have nothing to loose.
It's completely reversible (just throw the piece away and shave)
No surgery.

Every 3-6 months u get new hair! U can get different style etc.
