Yeah. I don;t realize how dry the old unit gets until a new one arrives. I kind of prefer the in between on the dry and the new. I like the dry look as it doesn;t look like PERFECT hair. few people have naturally perfectly hydrated hair. Imperfection leads to a tougher detection. I cut in my hair looking like I am on my way to the barber not coming from the stylist. Little things keep the illusion working. People are always shocked when I reveal the unit because it does not look like a typical unit in its style or perfection.
