Does anyone ever cut into the hairline to shape it better? I am having a hard time finding a piece with the proper hairline contour / level of recession, which I think is a massive part of a completely realistic look. I want to get a stock C hairline and cut it down to give it the proper shape -- not quite AA but not perfectly rounded.
I hear a lot about how you aren't supposed to cut into the hairline of a piece, but what is the reason for that exactly other than the frontal graduated density being diminished? I'd think that the trade off of realistic facial framing matters more than the frontal density being a little higher. FWIW I wear a .03 thin skin piece.
side note: what is the best way to determine what the best hairline angle is for your face, other than trial and error? Is there any science to it?
