may i have your opinion on my template( photos)
First of all a little introduction. am 29 years old and i ve been having hair loss since
my 16 so am thinking seriously of wearing. Fortunatly, my is helping thourgh the process, she is very lovely and knowing that she is going to assist me, is real assest.

So we have tried to make the first template and am hesitant to send it as it.
would i use your expert eyes on it please.

(am a freinch speaker, so please dont mind lack of english written skill)

Also, i have a plenty of questions:

1) is the swiss lace front and freinch the best combo still, for a moderatly active person ( i run once a week)?

2a) I read that the glue got2be glued is the best to begin with as it is easy for removal puposes

2b)is the tape better any how( less time consuming or does it stick better)

3) do i have to draw the crown on the template as i read it somewhere?
The ting is that the template doesnt go lower enough to reach the entire crown circling

here the photo for now, ill keep the thread updated

I suggest extending the hairline forward. Just my opinion.

That looks very good Viserion. Personally I wouldn't touch the hairline - when you see the position from the side it looks just right to me. I notice that your hair is looking a bit thin below the back of the template at the back. I think the design is OK for now, but you might need to extend your coverage a bit lower at the back in due course.

Taking your questions:

1) definitely lace. Swiss or French or a combination would all be fine.

2a) yes, the main advantage is that if you make a mistake you can just wash the hairpiece and the glue off in the shower. So it is great for practising and experimenting.

2b) once you are comfortable with the process, you will probably want to switch to regular adhesives (Got2B is soluble in water, so you couldn't swim if you are using it, and it would be tricky if you got caught in heavy rain). Tape is stronger and less messy to apply and clean off, but it does not give quite as undetectable a result as glue. I use it for the back and sides of my piece; glue for the hairline. I think that is the best of both worlds.

3) you don't have to have a crown. But if you do, it is best not to have it near the edge of the piece in case the base is visible through the gap in the hair. Move the crown so that the whole swirl is on your piece.

Good luck - looking good so far!

Hey!

It looks like your crown area is receding, too. At least it looks like this on the first photo. If that's the case, I would go a step along to the back. I mean, in the end it doesn't matter if your hair system is a bit longer, does it?

Just my two cents.

RE: may i have your opinion on my template( photos)
I realy appriciate your helps folks. the termendous variables to take into acount has delayed my decision for years, eventhough the countless page i have red on the subject. So again thank you

as for the template, i think its betteer to keep the rear as is and change the template in due course. otherwise i wil have to deal with the still thick yet thining area.
dont you agree?

1) I am going to order a freinch base front swiss and am wondering where i can buy all the utilities like the glue and other stuff, should i have the need.

2)Hair matching color : i ve cut some hair from side and back and put them in a little plastic container( again am freinch native, please be indulgent).
is this suffiient for toplace to proceed)

3a) i ve marked some directinal arrows on the template. will it be contradictory to ask for a freestyle?
3b) is it recomended to do the hair cutting with specialist or can i do it myself or at least my girlfreind (riskwise)

to summerize my spec would be french base and swiss front, 4 inches length
and 70% density(any comment on that ?) with got2be glued

Again thank you for the help provided and in return, i will keep this thread active until the wearing photos.

cheers

We all went through this traumatic period when we faced the family, friends and coworkers for the first time. If you take the time to design the template, have a good attachment and cut-in, you will look so much better than you do now that there is no going back to thinning hair.

My advice is to grow out your own hair, so as to mask the thinning area and start out with a shorter hair system. That way, it looks like you got a haircut. Also, if you grow a beard, that will focus the attention of people away from your system and make people think that's what's different about you.

To paraphrase the words of Andrew Zimmern, a bald, food aficionado and host of "Bizarre Foods", on TV: "If it looks good, wear it."

Hello guys.
I was told by Jhon that the system will be delivered somewhere around end of may. Am excited and barely can stop reading countless pages on the subject.

But one major concern arose : the system lifeSpan. as am living in the canadian soil and following the CAD deppriciation, the lace cost me around 500 dollars wich i think is bit expensive. I thought the system lifespan is about 6 months, but apparently it isnt. Most wearers say its 3 monts wich will be kind of unaffordable to me at that price, am still an engineering student.

Anyway the system is arriving soon and its the time to build up the arsenal. My strategy is to begin with G2bG and wear only in the weekends to get the hang of it.
However, the idea of removing it everyday is not that pleasant. I beleive it will increase the feeling of being faker.

So could someone recommend me a more durable products, whether its tape or glue?
I Saw also that the hair dryness and color fading is a common concern, can you provide suggestion in the matter?

I realy hope this will work out for me. it pisses me off to look 5 years older than i should.

My order has been passed around last march, but i had to send a larger a hair sample in may 26. As of now, i dont know realy when the 9 weeks that i had been told , commences. does it start when they received the template or the hair sample?

two simple questions: a time range for the delivery and more importantly
the adress update that i ll provide to whoever toplace related personel that will answer me.
