That's where my balding is too. Right on the front on top of my four head. it's very hard to find a piece and a wig store that's affordable. I finally went to silk beauty supply and they created the front piece for me for $30. you got to find the right person in the right place to really help...

I was wondering the same thing. from everything I have read the less you do to your hair the better. but I'm so far balding on top that I had to go get my first hairpiece. I cried. I plan on only wearing it occasionally. Even pressing the clip in and out of my hair I could tell that like I...
