@Paul: Can't argue that. I guess what I was meaning to ask was how much realism am I giving up? Is it a significant difference to where I can't look like I have a healthy, well kept, attractive head of hair? Maybe this is the best way of asking: Although it's 2nd best, how far behind am I from the guy with a natural head? Would it look clearly inferior standing next to that person? I'm 20 years old so I'm concerned.

@LTB: Does it smell? Would about stuff like wax works, pomade, etc?
