I've been browsing the forum. You all have been providing great information.

I want to say I'm a total new wearer. I'm 22 and it's been very difficult for me to deal with all of this/incorporate this into my lifestyle for the last 2 weeks. Some people have noticed my hair is fuller, have commented on how I should leave it grown out, others I feel looking at my hair as if trying to solve a puzzle. It's a little scary. I've let a few people in on the secret and they have been nothing but supportive, but as I'm sure you're all aware - it doesn't just become easy overnight.

I just bought my first partial frontal. I'm having a few issues I would like your help;

What are your tips on laying down the front hairline? Do you have a method?
How do you deal with stray hairs?
My system is a little "shinny" still. I notice this mostly in the sunlight. Is there a way to fix this?
How close is too close when cutting the lace on the front hairline? I think I have a little lace that I can cut away.
