This has been an issue ever since I started wearing.
Tape or glue, I ALWAYS wind up with a wrinkle when I attach the hair system.
I always go front to back, and I know the system is correct since I always dry fit first to make sure I made no mistakes shaving the edges.
I thought that now that I had short hair, it would be easier... it's NOT. I always wind up screwing it up. It's NEVER visible... but I can feel it... and it drives me nuts.
This is how I attach.
1. Permiter is taped, and a hairline tape is left in front, with the paper on.
2. After prep, I mark the front with a makeup pencil using the template with a T.
3. Using a large hand mirror that lies flat on the table, I grasp the unit with both hands, making sure it is inside out (there is quite the curve to it), on both sides of the edge of the hairline tape.
4. I line up the tape with the T, and then press the tapes on either side of it down, and start rolling back, and out, attempting to push back and out and down all the while.
5. When the back is done, I pull back the front, take off the paper liner, and do the hairline.
I always wind up with wrinkles in the lace in the back.
