    Convince me to switch to UTS or Poly

    I have an UTS ready to go so I’ll try it out in a few weeks when it’s time to move on from current system.

    Convince me to switch to UTS or Poly

    I am satisfied with French lace. The only remaining issue I absolutely must solve is my hairline. No matter what adhesive strategy they use, the hairline edge never lays smooth for me there’s always a rough edge, it’s not 100% down to my scalp at the edge. The only reason I’ve gotten away with...

    Convince me to switch to UTS or Poly

    Thanks. I think ultimately a combination unit might end up being best for me. Lace center and poly perimeter. Because right now with the lace hairline, it’s rough, and I can’t even run my fingers up the front smoothly. No matter what adhesive they use it won’t lay completely flat. Yet I think...

    Convince me to switch to UTS or Poly

    Thanks for the help! Definitely going to just try the poly one I got and see how it goes. Ultimately I might end up liking the combination the best because idk if I’ll want to spend more money for more often salon visits apparently for the full poly.

    Best possible hairline + ensuring it stays down?

    I just checked; it's 0.06mm. I go to HairClub for now...I know some people have lots of negative things to say about them but their stylists are all professional and I haven't found anyone better near me, so I'm going there for now. I tried going to a lady who runs her own business but she did...

    Best possible hairline + ensuring it stays down?

    Thanks for the comment. I actually did order and received my poly unit, so I'm going to go ahead and try that next time. However, I'm a little discouraged because my stylist at HairClub said I'm "going to hate it." She cuts and styles my hair great, and she's very pleasant and talkative and open...

    Hairline never truly laying smooth?

    So I did buy that tape ^ but it's really for people who are able to re-do the hairline every few days since it breaks down quickly and doesn't last 7-14 days. Doesn't work well for me: I need something far stronger and more lasting. Still haven't gotten it figured out with the salon. The...

    Convince me to switch to UTS or Poly

    Can you answer a few more concerns of mine as I try switching from full french lace to UTS poly? 1) I've heard everyone say poly is going to be bad for sweating/working out every day. Does it smell horrible, or make a mess because of no breathability? 2) Is it possible to still go 2 weeks...

    Best possible hairline + ensuring it stays down?

    I've posted here before and have shared some pictures publicly. I'm a young guy and only have been wearing for about 3 months now. I research a lot of stuff myself and am pretty knowledgeable about everything, but I'm a very busy guy and don't want to do any maintenance myself; I'd rather go...

    Hairline never truly laying smooth?

    Yeah, this is only the case right at the front edge, though. I have zero issues around the sides and back. HairClub does this for me. This was also a brand new, first-time attachment. HairClub salon room was cool and dry. They should be doing this properly; if it's tape only then it doesn't...

    Hairline never truly laying smooth?

    I believe I probably do have an oily head. They dry it out with alcohol, but perhaps it's still just not enough and just something I'll have to deal with.

    Hairline never truly laying smooth?

    Yes, completely. They even use Max Sport Hold which cuts the expected time before "sweating" down to just 1 hour. I still do not sweat or wet it for several hours after leaving the salon and it still does this. It must be something with the base and the way it fits to my head. Perhaps in the...

    Hairline never truly laying smooth?

    Hmm. Strange. I know people who don't have this issue at all; their system lays perfectly smooth...I just don't understand how. Yeah, tape is what's on there right now. They tried liquid adhesive on top of the tape too and no improvement.
