First appointment around the corner… all the feels

Thanks so much. I've washed it once and the volume is less crazy and much more workable.

Man, I've been living my best life with this thing. It's been a game changer for me. Confidence is through the roof.

Congrats man! Sounds like it was well worth it. Did it take a while to get used to it?

Honestly, I instantly felt at home with it. I went through my 20's bald, and even in my dreams at night I had hair.

This is clearly the honeymoon phase. I haven't had to do any hairline touchups or remove/cleaning yet but I work with a stylist that specializes in this, so I'm quite upbeat about it all. The only worry I have is something bad happening to the system where I'm forced to remove it, but I'm starting to look for a backup piece anyway.

Gonna jump in here also;

I had my first system about 6 weeks ago or so after deliberating over it for years. Finally took the plunge, went to a specialist salon and initially I hated it. I actually walked home from the salon basically in tears. The density was wrong, it was too far forward, it was fluffy etc, all the usual things people mention.

I decided to stick with it rather than remove straight away. I've gone back a few times and now I'm quite happy with it. I feel much more confident and look exactly the way I want to.

I'm sure I can get a better result as time goes by, maybe with a new custom piece and a better stylist etc, but as for the first attempt, I'm pretty happy!

Basically for anyone reading this; yes its normal to be super nervous and anxious! Stick with it, work with the new addition to your life and don't give up straight away

I will put on my system on I think thursday again. I think I will made some pictures before / meanwhile / after.

I got some update now.
I think I have the first time bonded the whole UTS with Extreme Hold. It is so much better working than left some space and put on tapes.
After nearly a week, I didn´t have itching or whatever at all. They say it lasts four weeks or so but you know.... tomorrow I´ll have to redo the hairline.
As you can see my hairline is a bit not that "aggresive" like a 14 year boy with a straigt hairline more a "c" shape I think (I don´t know what its called). But thats no problem, I´m 38 years now.
Here I have some pics. I´d dyed my bio hair by myself. It is a bit dark but better than before. The hair from the system is much more shiny than my bio hair. I cut my own hair by myself. First I only took a bit off but you can readjust with the system on. The pictures are not good I know I only own a bad Nokia phone BTW The UTS is nearly 3 years old now, I use it maybe 3-4 times a year. And I also prefer a "wet" style with hidening the front.
