Its actually the same as the first about 5 months apart! After a long day on a boat riding the waterway the hair in the second pic is blown out. density around 65% (New one coming is going to 55%)
I try to thin and recede yearly. Someday I want to free myself of this thing at this rate maybe 10 years LOL .

Body wave,
50% gray temples to 10%-15%.
Color 1b becasue it lightens up as can be seen between number one and number 2.
Full caps.
100% lace (not SFS) Went from all poly to poly perimeter (tape removal sucked on poly I had to use scotch tape with Blue on the scalp side.
I use no shine on front and three 1" wide blue strips on the back ST30 for the sides.Nothing over the ears. I do NOT over tape. A few small strips go a long way and I ride a motorcycle sans helmet sometimes and it doesn't budge. I think new users over tape their units.

I get 7 months out of them and as you can see I look like I need a haircut. Thats the way I prefer it rather then too perfect. I shampoo and air dry in the sun a new unit at least 5 times before I wear it and cut it in. I do all my own cutting.

I wash using store brand shampoo and conditioner and shampoo and blow dry everyday. Again I would rather it NOT look like "Hollywood" hair. I really don't coddle the units. I tried the blue bottled stuff and some other things but for me its real hair and I treat it as such. Although I did like the Blue Max and that Horses Mane conditioner.

Something I do and I am sure I am alone on this is I cut the hair shorter as I wear it then when I get a new one its always longer.......(People at work know when I changed my hair..LOL They are used to it by now). The ends get dry and split so I cut them off.
