I noticed my piece could definitely be put down a little lower, but in the mirror it looks just fine.

anyone else notice your hair looks a lot different on the computer?

Take a selfie with your phone camera: it always looks different to what it looks like in the mirror. I do wonder myself, which one is closer to the real thing - the camera or the mirror - and I conclude that it must be the mirror because it is a better reflection of reality than a digital device.

Easy fix. Look at an older pic when your bio hairline was “good”..
Use that as a reference point (use your temple points as a marker). That’s what I do. Could I go lower? Sure, but it won’t seem natural.

Or, I do the 4 finger measurement (4 fingers from top of my eye brow to hairline).works like a charm. However, I’ve always had a high hairline (even when younger). You may want to try 3 or 3 1/2 fingers Again, try to get the best balance between old pics and some kind of measurement system.

in terms of what’s the most accurate depiction of your hair - your phone’s front facing camera. Sometimes, zoom can distort the image. The mirror basically flips you.

Another great feature of Zoom is you can put a picture of the hair you want on the virtual background, and provided you don't move your head too much, no one will know you're bald. Save $$$$!
Do you believe I just found out that was an option in zoom after all this time! There is this one client I am in constant contact with, and it looks like he is in a really nice conference room with their company logo on the wall, etc... more than likely he is probably in a little cluttered office.
