If anything, what would the density be to achieve that? Figure everyone is clued up on the hairline since there is so many great pics around here, so I was interested in the back, crown area.
Gel as a Doc how do you find so much free time..you are pretty active on this forum throughout the day...u got wireless access in the patient rooms or what lol.
MO:
I do have wireless in my office...but I take one day off during weekdays now. Trust me, I'm still putting in 60 plus hours per week. Gotta stomp out those nasty STDs.
I go thru spells on this forum where I am very active and attentive and then times where I am distracted and away...like most of us. Will be nice to meet many of you one day- hopefully at a convention- sounds like fun.
Then again, thinning always looks real 'cause it is.
In order to achieve this, when ordering, you would designate about 50% in the #5 area of the order form.
The other areas (1,2,3,4 and 6) would be probably around 60% or even 65% if you want to make the thinning in area #5 more pronounced and your sides are fairly thick.
As far as the original question, in my opinion, that is not a piece in the picture unless it is a worn out one 'cause most people dont order them that way.
gel its a demanding job and its got to be tough. nice to have a day off. hope to meet you one day also...you reg m.d..?? you give great advice..mo stop being jelous, you still in school...gel's much older. mo buddy you get thier one day..ha,ha mo love you buddy just messing..

Yes, reg MD. Since taking over a private practice I began at as an "employee", I have never worked harder, longer and been paid less than even when I first got out of residency. I have no training in running a business- most docs don't. We are at the mercy of the 3rd party payers. I may spend 30 or 40 min with a patient with 6 problems and, eventually, if all goes well, I get that insurance check for 60$. When the rent, malpractice, health ins., loans, utilities and salary for staff is paid, there aint nothing left. I'm at a point where I may fold and join a big group or corp because the days of solo practice are of the past.
hang in there jel i got a bad doctor, i know you must be a good one. i have small belly hernia, for years now,in belly button. i tell doctor that i got no ins and i want to pay and rest to heal it.. can you call a fellow doc??i not afraid to pay i say. he says dont worry about it..this guy sucks..i am over weight by 20 lbs.. he never tells me to lose weight..i just have low blood sugar 25 years now...thank good i dont need them..in west palm beach.lake park. i used to go to dr greer. father and son dads gone now..great doc he would say if you dont do what i say do not come back..great doctor, gel i feel being a business man and doctor do not mix. its hard enough being just a doc. i feel for you. i respect you job so much..its got to be hard..but its got to be a business also and these ins. company kill you...your are young doc..you got lots of thinks you can do if it dont work out..off topic again.gel i think i got this toothache speed boat sold in 1 hour or so. i will lose alot but it drove me crazy and gives no pleasure like most i have had...pcw next like you buddy..i see you off light house point...someday boca or ft. laud...

Gel what you expect man your livin in Ft. Lauderdale- the cost of living there is ridiculous...I bet if you moved to a different state and opened up a practice in a small town you would be banking like crazy....let me know if you need a pharmacy in your office Ill open one up...just keep sending those acyclovir scripts to me...Ill take care of the rest
mo fla cost of living is not so jigh. it is now but it was avg a few years ago. not what people think...no city and state taxes and a few years ago you could build home away from town for $150 new a small home..cost of living try cali or newyork..fla not so bad. taxes on homes fair . home ins . high the last few years.. a home like ba a few years ago on lake come be had for $200k pay below avg..in you field pay very good thier.
bob
ya Bob but I would imagine the Ft. Lauderdale/Miami area would be pretty high in terms of cost of living...I heard other places like Orlando and Tampa are pretty affordable places to live...I already got Walgreens from Flordia trying to sign me up lol...I might sign a one year contract and just see how it is...only thing that scares me are those hurricans down south.,
Easton....are you still living in Oakland county?....Iam currently staying near Detroit for school and I gotta tell ya its pretty crappy over here...high state taxes....once I graduate Iam outta this joint.
Mo, you a pharmacist??? If so you know you can go on a daily supressive treatment to keep those genital sores from cropping up so often! But if you like, I will keep sending you the extra Valtrex samples- same unmarked envelope as always!!!
Bobby: Look at the SeaDoo XRT 215 supercharged, intercooled 3 seater. The kids will absolutely love it. I bet you'd use it more than the boat- so easy to drag around and launch. Keep in garage. FAST! Stable in Ocean too.
Maybe some day I will return to Maine and be a country doctor. Many days it seems like a good idea- then I remeber winter, all 6 months of it. Well, actually there is mud season in March and black fly season in May and mosquitoe season in June and July, Aug and Sept and Oct are great. I get too depressed when it starts getting dark at 4pm!!
good for you. Good career choice. You'll always have work and can live anywhere you like. I have a friend who is a 3rd generation pharmacist and he, like his dad and grandfather, is a compounding pharmacist. He is up the street from my practice and can make up a batch of anything. really helps me when I call with questions.
Unfortunately, the insurance industry and all their "prior authorization" requests (AKA: "we think it is too expensive...we are not in bed with that company so it is will cost us more that 3 cents...we are going to harass the doctor and make you, dear pharmacist, act as a social worker and paper pusher too...") make you and me and the patient wanna screem you %$#@%$#ers...all the while they bank excess revenue, raise copays, overpay CEOs and practice medicine without a license. welcome to reality.

Gel couldn't have put it better myself..you nailed it...
Well, it's my Toplace. Pretty sure Sam had it figured out in the first post.
It's all transparent french, 70% density, all freestyle. Stock 10x8.
I used a cutting comb from Sally's Beauty Supply to get it to the point in the pic above, then I colored it using Just For Men Real Black(Jake, I thought you would have chimed in "that guys uses JFM"). Then I used Sam's method of thinning out the top with thinning shears and scissors, it was, uh, rather full on top. After that I kinda found the crown area and cut in the crown a little shorter all around.
You can see the original fullness of a 70% piece in the blond pic and what I was able to do to it thinning it out and kinda cutting in the crown. Actually, I think I took a little more hair out than I wanted to but this works great for short styles. I rotate units to match my growing hair, so this is as short as I go, I wouldn't think of going this short with less than about 68% IMO.
This was the fourth cut in I've done and the first without the robocutter.
I might go back to the robo just for the rough cut in, then break out the shears and razor comb. The nice thing about the robo is you can get a real precision cut if you know the exact lengths of the style you're trying to attain. LooksReal gave the specs of his cut lengths in that other thread of his, the robo would come in handy if you're not just winging it.
So when you say 70% stock, does that graduation from 70-65 or 75-70. That what my 69% all 1 density look like with a little graduation. Then try to thin it out with a brush overtime. I usually just get 1 density all around though. What do you guys do with the hairline? I see photos of the factory graduation and it look to thin for my likeing.
(ESniper)
Samester you usually like a higher density at your front w/ no grad right? Because you usually thin your base density down.
i wont spoil anything.. i have a feeling here..
(Heck-Yea!!!)
