Getting ready to cut the base for my system. Last time, I had it done for me and they made a template/cut the base to cover only my top "bad" hair just like in all the videos, which meant that the left and right edge of the system sat right on my recession points (the very edges of the top hair where the part would be on one side or the other). I comb my hair to the left, which meant that I was combing right from the perimeter of the system. Unsurprisingly, that's where the first bit of major shedding started--it looked like my "part" suddenly got very wide.
I was thinking this time about making the template a little larger so that the edges of the system would sit a bit past my recession points. That would involve shaving into my "good" biohair on the sides. The part of the system that sits past my recession points would be considered side hair instead of top hair--then if I chose to comb it over, I wouldn't be combing from the perimeter of the system.
Does this make sense to do, or is there some reason that I shouldn't?
(Example of what I'm talking about in attached photo. It looks like he's shaved into his good hair on the part side, yes?)
