Hi Caspian, yup--plenty guys wear partials as you described... you can have anything you want / like in essence ..... many guys simply get a stock unit [faster than custom-made] and trim / cut out a partial to fill in the areas needing coverage, and others like to order custom-made [especially if their hair-colour is ` tricky`] ..... stocks come in a medium density as standard. A guy your age should be fine with such a density. Can you post a pic of just the front [forehead] and temple area so we can see what you need and see what density your own hair is ?
