Its a French lace piece with 85% density. I like a high density so when it sheds, I can get more life out of it. I've gotten 4 months out of my last one!

I order it blonde and then have the whole head colored using foils. No color is applied directly to the scalp to prevent coloring the lace.

I use white glue that dries clear. I have a few brands I use. All give me 2-3 weeks attachment. The frontal hairline is all that needs touch ups from time to time.

Shaving your sides is easy. The key is to leave some overlap with the hairpiece hair that is a bit textured and shattered, so that you can blend it into your own shaved hair. The key is to not have a ledge or ridge between your own shaved hair and the piece. Having the sides of the piece thinned out a bit and shattered will aid in the blending process. You can kind of see this in the picture BA posted.

I have no pictures of me without hair. Sorry. I basically look like the pictures, without the cool hair on top!
