The virus creates challenges for guys like me who wear and want to keep the fact private. It's a problem if the supply of systems dries up and we run out of wearable hair. Taking the piece off and going publicly bald would compromise the ability to start wearing again with privacy when the crisis is over, so it is not an option.
Some sellers are still reporting they have plenty of stock pieces, but I have a non-standard hair colour and I usually order custom to get a good match. So I have decided to ration the hair I have. I have two decent cut-in pieces, plus a couple of old units which I had retired but which can still be worn with a bit of product to pep them up. I am mostly working from home and practising social distancing, so that helps. Around my apartment I am now just wearing a ball cap with nothing underneath. If I have an on-line video meeting I can quickly attach one of the older units with Got2BGlued. It may not be perfect, but it's good enough for the camera on my office laptop. My 2 good units are back in ziplock bags, being kept for weddings and bar mitzvahs.
In other news, I have a small number of brand new hairpieces which a former poster gave me when he decided to get a scalp tattoo. They are oval, 19 centimetres by 15, dark brown tousled hair (a bit curlier than bodywave), good quality Swiss lace with a thinskin rim all the way around (including the hairline) - pics below. This situation seems a good use for them. If you are an existing wearer and you are getting desperate because you don't have a wearable unit (either because your normal supplier has shut or because of a shortage of cash caused by the virus) and you can make use of one of these, you can PM me and I will send you one for free. First come first served, but please don't take one unless you really need it. The intention is to avoid embarrassment for guys who might otherwise have a problem.
