The things are solid, not flexible like lace or poly, but like wearing a thin hard-hat on your head. There are videos on youtube of them. Strange invention and yet people actually wore them!

LOL, that sounds horrible.

I meant a thin "skin" type unit that I guess is exactly what is described above...I thought I had heard about something like that, but I couldn't remember where. Apparently it was right here.

Years ago I tried a "skin" unit, and it was just ghastly. I imagine it was a lot thicker than what it available now. The thought of being able to get a decent hold with minimal to no tape or glue is very appealing to me. I wear my units 24/7, but being able to perform a quick "re-do" sounds very neat.
