Bdman and Lovehair, - and I hope he doesn't mind me mentioning him - but the "poster boy" I think you are referring to goes by the name of Mr.Burns.
I haven't seen him post too much lately, but I remember him from the "old" Toplace forum. He was actually one of the guys whose pictures got me thinking that this hairpiece thing could actually work and not look like most people think of stereotypical "rugs".
