Hi folks. New to the site and concept of hair replacement and could do with some answers to things I can't seem to get my head around. I'll number them for ease of reference should any of you have the time and inclination to reply. Thanks in advance.
1. I shave my head like many and would like to carry on shaving it but just have a partial on top. So I'd have a very short back and sides with a lot on top. Is this possible and do I need to remove the 'piece' every time I shave my head? I hear of guys keeping their system on for quite long periods and wonder how viable it is to keep taking it off and putting it back on with the gluing and taping? I shave my head twice a week.
2. One site I went to (supportive of DIY) wanted customers to send in a lock of hair for colour matching. How do I do this when I never let my hair grow more than a millimetre or two! I'm grey btw.
3. Re the DIY approach: who do I get to cut it? Can it be any stylist or does it have to be one that has experience with replacements?
Much appreciated guys. I'm 55 and have been reasonably happy being bald as I've always had a baby face but am losing this quality now! Seems an odd time to start all of this but there you go. I'm in the UK btw.
