Not too low. Density at the very front central area looks too diffuse. Anyway to make it look slightly thicker?AlI just put on a new system. It’s 3 fingers above eyebrows. My previous system was 4 fingers above brow. Looking for feedback. My wife says this one looks good l, but I think it’s too low. Just want to see what everyone else thinks.
Thanks View attachment 143041View attachment 143042

Thanks for your help!A few things to say here
- Your camera is in focus in the second picture. Not your hair.
- You've done really well on your specs here. The sparse looking front and hairline shape matches your temples nicely
- I think I can see the base quite well in the first picture.
- I agree with braf about trying a different type of lace base, but up to you
Thanks Braf. I have a Swiss Lace unit on the way and have 2 units like in the picture on hand. On the color are you thinking it’s too dark? Also, do you think an unexposed hairline would be better with my current system?
I don't think it would still look unrealistic if he had slightly more density there but as long as he is happy with it that is all that matters. I won't argue with your assessment as I don't know much about hair systems other than what I have read on here. Your system looks good. So you think his placement is too low?You are inaccurate on your assumption.
His temples are receded very much. You must match all areas of your system to your current degree of alopecia/hair status
I would say your current unit is very realistic. Coloring looks off. I would strongly recommended ordering a blonde unit next time and doing your own cut in.
Take the cut in to a a womens salon who also does mens hair and ahve them dye your hair/and the unit to medium brown. Then style it to your liking.
Also try french lace/swiss lace as a backup to see if you like them better. never stop experimenting

Diesel guy, thanks for the feedback. Currently, I’ve been ordering stock systems with no gray, because I haven’t been able to find anyone with 5% gray on the shelf. I’ve had 2 custom systems on order since January and supplier still has no idea when I’ll get them. I did purchase some synthetic gray hair to vent in, but haven’t tried it yet.

I prefer synthetic gray. The salon made what I guess what a logical assumption - and 'upgraded' me from synthetic gray to natural gray - and I hated it. at 40% gray, I noticed a difference in the overall feel and stylelability of my hair and most importantly looks. My hair is med-dark brown and with the natural gray - the contrast between the brown and natural gray was a bit more subtle - it had a bit of an ashy hue to the overall look. And also, when light hit it - it looked like I had sparklers in my hair.
Wow, how odd. We NEVER use human gray!
