Some good points made there from Hair2019. @sammyboyrep attach a pic so we can get a better idea. Are you wearing UTS or a thicker poly? UTS is the thinnest at 0.03mm and will mostly be undetectable but does need proper care and bonding for the perfect exposed hairline, and you will need to...

Superhairpieces might be another option. I was looking into them but am happy with my currently salon, even if they are more expensive.

Ghost Bond or any such white glue is what you should be using with UTS. 2 layers are enough for a 5 - 10 day hold. As for the knots, use a daily leave-in spray conditioner before you brush your hair. For example "Aussie Miracle Hair Insurance Conditioner Detangler Spray". This also helps hold...

6 months is about the max you'll get from a UTS, which it looks like yours is. A 0.03mm system is built to be discreet, so it will be more delicate and have a shorter lifespan. Shedding usually starts at month 4 or 5 for me, and yes it's very normal though the timing and extent will depend on...

Very interesting to read, thank you! It must have been so hard losing your hair early, but the positive at this young age is that you can wear a nice thick system and get away with so many different styles. No one will suspect you're wearing! To compare, I started losing my hair in my 20s into...

The original post is from almost 6 years ago and he hasn't logged in since 2019. I don't think you'll get any response. I would guess that user Beauty101 is simply plugging their own service.

TCP subscription is for the hair system only, not the service costs i.e. cut-in and maintenance, which vary depending on the salon. A cut-in can cost 200+ Euros and maintenance 100+ , so learn to do the maintenance yourself for sure. If you take good care of the hair then a TCP system can last...

I use TCP. They can be good but you need a good stylist who works with you to design the system you want. I'd recommend either having a stylist that's close enough to you (let's say a couple of hours drive) , or you learn to maintain the system yourself - which isn't hard to do really. If you...

But where in the world are you Brian? ;)

Heat shrinks a poly / UTS base for sure. It's happened to me many times in the past. Can happen in hot weather too, and most certainly if you have a hot shower.

Would be great if they offered a cut-in service. The hard part is not getting hold of the hair pieces, it's finding a good stylist to fit and cut the system in.

Email Richard on info@ukhairsystems.com Good quality and reasonable prices.

I use white bond, currently Ghost Bond Platinum. I don't see much difference between the brands though. I only use 1 layer of bond, which gives a 5 to 7 day hold on average. Sometimes I have to re-do the hairline in-between if I'm going out and want to style the hair up or back. So the 1...

@jeepwrangler there's a salon? I thought SHP were a supplier from China. Where did you get the cut-in?

Just use leave-in conditioner sprays. They're good for the hair and provide a light, natural hold. I have used various brands like Aussie or Revlon Equave. Currently testing out a collagen spray but too early to know results.
