Attn: Wearers with low density (<60%)

I just want to get some feedback from those people who wear light densities.

1. Can you see any scalp when the hair is dry
2. When you wet the hair and/or use gel does it still look like a full head of hair?
3. Can you see the tape when it is attached?
4. how does it look in the morning?
5. how much easier is it to blend in.

4. how does it look in the morning? MESSY, BUT LESS INSANE/ERASERHEAD THAN HIGHER DENSITY PIECES.
5. how much easier is it to blend in. MUCHO

Dry, wet, half dry...here's me, about 15 minutes out of the shower, I got out, towel dried my melon, shaved, threw on some clothes, stood under the blazing heat of the sky light and let 'er rip.

I'm wearin' a little longer these days, but am going for a shorter look with some new pieces that Toplace should be sending my way soon.

I've never gone over 60% because I felt at that point it was plenty, if not too much hair. I now only go 50-55% because of the fact that it's easily blended into my own hair and it's a density range that looks nothing like a hairpiece even on it's worst days. It's just a good head of hair that looks extremely natural.

I will say that for the 50-55% range it does look fairly thin when wet, or with a gel in it. You are best off at 60% if you want to use product for a "wet look" in my opinion.

The only product I use is a little dab of Brylcreem and a spray of water. I usually attach at night, let the bond set really good, then rub a dime-sized dab of Brylcreem in my hair the next morning...I do a quick spray with a water bottle and run a WIDE tooth comb gently through it.

In my opinion, the Brylcreem helps blend the hair color and puts some life into it. As you can see, my hair is dark blond with blond highlights and some gray. I naturally have always gotten tons of blond highlights in the summer.

The strawberry reddish tint (visible on the back) in the second photo only shows in direct sunlight, and has been the deal on every piece I have ever bought from several different companies. I have used ADH, which has helped, but has also usually darkened the piece.

I had Debbie color a few pieces a year or so ago, and that really helped.
