I always got freestyle and it always has a forward bias but can be combed and styld in pretty much any direction but flat back. It can be parted anywhere. I have ordered flat forward with spikey front for my next unit because I want that more flat top I had with my natural hair all going forward. I brush mine forward anyway and flick the front up. Freestyle is good but I like the idea of the hair wanting to nautrally go forward after a gust of wind instead of me having to push it forward again. I'll see how it goes.
