Mostly as emergency back ups and for quick fit and removal as you can wear them without tape or glue as they sort of mould themselves round your head. Good for going to the hairstylist to get another lace unit cut in. You just remove the skin unit when you're there without having to do any messy detachments. And of course there are no knots to worry about being seen.

Having worn a couple of skin full caps I am firmly of the view that the cons outweigh the pros. They're hot and make you sweat heaps; the injected hair lays flatter and, in my experience, falls out sooner; the edge never seems to completely disappear; they're noisy to touch; air bubbles can occur at the crown.

I haven't tried the latest very thin offerings and I'd be interested to see a review on their long term viability.

Im wearing a full cap and have tried.All Poly thinskin, finest Swiss lace and poly. I like the swiss lace front and sides but fraying is an issue but like the poly back starting under the crown because I can use scotch tape on the poly just behind the ears with the blue tape applied to it for easy and quick clean removal. I am going to go with a 64 top front and sides next order and poly back and over the ears next order and see where that goes. I hestate an all lace unit becasue the nape may not hold. I don't think the lace will stay on the tape at the nape of the neck.

But in my case, I wear the hair at 4" and I don't worry about the touch thing, Being older has its advantages when you don't have a peer group to follow in style and form and are married.The wife sees me with it and without it for days at a time. I have to say the thin skin poly front looks fine even exposed but the lace is slightly better and more pliable around the crown where poly can bubble.

The latest thinskin is fantastic on the front. Only those who are looking for it can find the edge. 99.99% of people are not looking for a hairpiece. In fact I point out hair piece I would think anyone would notice and people are surprised all the time. Even the wife who is hairpiece savvy.
