Hi guys,

I've been lurking around for a few weeks and have learned a ton from you all. As I hatch my plan for a first time unit, I wanted to post my idea for a longish, greyish, light density fullcap style. Couple pics attached. From what I've read here and on Jrob's site, it seems that longer is easier with fullcaps as the nape and side attachment issues are more easily obscured. And as I have lousy side hair, the blending with a topper would probably be a disaster anyway.

So here are my questions. I'm in my early-fifties, hair already thinned out and greying. I was thinking of going 50-50 with grey/medium brown, with a very light density on top (much less than in these photos) and medium for sides/back. Does that sound about right for a mostly salty salt/pepper look, or would I be better off sticking with human hair grey, maxing it out at John's 30% limit? Can I go with swiss for the front area, or is this style too heavy for that (too much hair?). What are the downsides of a longish style like this, maybe b/c it's too much of a hassle or loses hair too quickly?

Thanks in advance for anyone's advice or ideas.
