    new hairpiece

    And speaking of density... Always, always, ALWAYS - research, to the nth degree, BEFORE you buy a hair system. Seriously. The downside of not knowing exactly what you want, is not being able to communicate it to your hair company, which results in, well, bad results! Do not use thinning...

    Frontal hairpiece

    It's pretty common actually - lots of people have partial systems - give these guys a shout and they'll tell you what they can do for you, if you want to go that way: http://www.optimahair.co.uk/

    How to get glue gunk out of piece? Tips on matted hair...

    It really is important - and I can't stress this enough - that you don't spary alcohol directly onto the hair. That would be bad. Alcohol is the number one killer for hair systems; it dries the hair up and, over time, you're left with an unusable head of straw. As Martykay mentioned - a good...

    Where is the best place to go for a hair piece?

    MartyK, Kaze, Yeah, I know what you mean, they're in the process of updating their website and changing all that stuff. Have to disagree with the pics though, personally I think they all look pretty great, and totally undetectable. As for the systems they use, they're mostly full lace and...

    Where is the best place to go for a hair piece?

    Yeah, I wish! If I owned a hair company it wouldn't cost me as much as it does... Hm, maybe I need a career change. Anyhow, I don't agree with what you said. I found them to be the only good company I could find. I tried seven others before I found these guys, and that was about a year ago...

    Where is the best place to go for a hair piece?

    Re: Where is the best place to go for a hair peace? Alternatively, if you don't find the path to full spiritual and boddily enlightenemnet at Toplace, and you actually want hair that'll look good and last longer than three months, give these guys a shot...

    GOOD SALONS FOR UK WEARERS

    Hey Man, No, don't get me wrong, I meant based on what I got when I called them up they just couldn't really tell me anything. I tried asking about specifics and they just stone walled me. Who knows, might've been an off day! :-) I'm confused with the "wig" comment..?? I guess anything that...

    One of the best pieces I've ever seen

    Well, that all depends on what you want. The best advice I can give is to really, seriously research everything - I'm around for any questions, I've been using systems for over 2 years - and check out good reputable companies. Best one I know of in the UK is...

    GOOD SALONS FOR UK WEARERS

    Hey Man, Cool - I looked into them too in the mean time. I talked to the guy there... they seem okay, but didn't really have too much info on specifics... sounded to me like they were just using stock units. But hey, who knows. In the mean time, check out these guys...

    One of the best pieces I've ever seen

    Flashdance - Amen :-) Natwraggie - that depends on how well you look after your hair. You can usually expect the hair to last around 5 - 8 months. Some people make theirs stretch out for a year. Some women manage to keep theirs looking great for 18 months plus. THG

    GOOD SALONS FOR UK WEARERS

    Okay, I wanted to start the metaphorical ball rolling for all us UK guys and girls who are, or are considering hair systems of some type and description. I've sucessfully managed to avoid Whitecliffes, Farrel, and HairInnovationUK after several bad, scary appointments by either me, or people I...

    One reason I can get away with a hair piece

    Haven't read the entire thread so I'm sorry if this has been covered already, but have you ever actually TRIED pulling a system off someone's head? Do you know exactly how hard that would be if it was attached properly?? I know. I've tried. The god damn thing doesn't move at all! Seriously...
