i use the nair technique to add back the graduation. i also bleach the area to get rid of knots.
i have no experience with toplace but unless you are thinning out the entire piece dramatically (NOT ADVISED) the knots throughout the piece shouldnt be an issue. if anything, perhaps in a defined crown or hard part, not elsewhere

Good deal, thanks for letting me know lovehair. I'm definitely only going to do very small amounts at a time and check on it before doing more. Also, are you aware if using Nair with soothing aloe and lanolin will be fine. That's all they had. Seems like as long as the active ingredients are the same as the original, then it would work just the same.
