At the convention on September 6th I am going to show 2 new products that for me are up there with ST30 tape as a major breakthrough.
Ever thought to yourself "I wish I could bury the front lace actually into my skin" Yeah strange sounding I know but it would eliminate all problems with the front hairline if you could, Well I have found the next best thing, Its a product that when applied it drys just like human skin and seals any sticky glue and hides any lace, It can be used for both applying the piece to the scalp and over the front lace to make it dissapear, It is totally waterproof, Non toxic and works fantastic, Dont worry everyone I am not going to keep it a secret after the convention when people have seen it used by me, I will let you know were to get it from online and what stores you can purchase it from.
The second product is a clear liquid that dissapears on the lace and in the words of the product makers
"Eliminates any fraying from any material" I have tried it and it certainly does seal the lace without it being visible and I tried picking at the lace to see if I could fray it, I couldnt, Again after the convention when people have seen it used by me, I will let you know were to get it from online and what stores you can purchase it from.
Both products are cheap and will lace a very long time, The skin liquid is $8.50 for a 2 fluid ounce bottle and should last you at least a year as you will need very little each time you use it.
The fray eliminating product is $3.50 and again will last you a long time.

Re: 2 New Products, Brilliant Both of Them

I love these new developments. The first product sounds a lot like another product you were excited about a couple of years ago and that was tried by many on this forum. I won't mention by name in case it's very similar to your new product The second product sounds like it could create quite a demand for Swiss lace. May have to sell that stock I have in French lace.
Awesome BA, the only problem I ever worry about is the front edge of the lace. I have always just wished there was a wy to get it flush on the skin.I can't wait!
Sounds really interesting.. Especially if the clean up is easy.. would be really cool to try out.. thanks for sharing new updates and info with us all the time.
No mate I am going to tell you were to get it for yourselves
Obviously if you have a problem finding it or live in a country that doesnt sell it, We will send it out to you.
Honestly I think everyone is going to love this stuff, Today I applied it to the bottom of the lace base and it just sealed the lace and the brilliant part is it gave me a very thin scalp skin look, Glue cannot possible bleed through it, It makes the front hairline TOTALLY invisible, I showed it Jill the ventilator today who has excellent eyesight and she said the edge cannot be see at all.
Although, I don't think companies such as Farrell will be giving their customers producs like these - if it eliminates fraying then we won't have to replace the unit as fast! So toplace obviously isn't after your cash, like other companies.
I cannot give this product enough praise, It gives a great scalp look, Its waterproof, Helps the attachment big time, Can be used on the bottom of the base as a sealer and on the top of the lace to make the hairline invisible.
As a knot sealer Darius ? Yes mate I think it can it hides knots also.
Funny thing is I found this just by accident it was like God himself pointing and saying "BA you and your friends at Toplace need that"
Ba you are talking about the first product right? Sounds interesting. I believe you said u can use the stuff to attach, but perhaps the attachment is weak if you use it alone? What about tape? I think perhaps u should try to use it on top of tape, since it might block the shine and everything of the tape, and when u go to clean up, tape would probably be easier then cleaning off glue.
BA, about the first product...would this be good for covering/hiding matted down existing hair - between lace and hair - so as to give a lighter scalp appearance under the lace piece than dark hair beneath? If so...whoa...
editing this to add: Is it flesh toned and opaque?

Buckeye, I'm a new wearer wearing for the first time this week. My TL system consists of 2 small pieces on either side of my bio front middle. It's an all forward deal that really looks great. I do use couvre in the middle and here and there at the joins. There are several advantages to my method. I dye my own hair and so even if the color of the pieces gets a little off for whatever reason, there's still the middle to rearange around and bring my 'natural' color into the front 'facade'. Poking couvre in various places also helps with the whole color consistency angle.
These pieces come from a blonde stock piece I ordered from BA. My own hair has no ash tones at all but this piece is very ash based. My stylist did a great job of bringing gold into it (warming it up) and darkening it to a very close shade of dark blonde.
I would like to order a custom single section for the entire front that I could comb back into a Christopher Walken type style, and wear on occasion. Trying to do that with my current system would be tough I think. Covering up the middle and sides with one partial would necessitate matting down the middle with got2bglued so I could still take advantage of my current system the majority of the time. I'm wondering if BA's find will help with this.

Xeon I havent tried it on tape but I dont see why it wouldnt work like the same way as glue.
MM I belive it would hide your own hair but it maybe a little messy putting it on and waiting for it to dry.
People have asked me what it is like, The best example is, When you get sunburned and your skin starts to peel, Thats exactly what it dries like "Peeling Skin"

Way to complicated a procedure for me. I can understand as a new wearer your wanting to keep every last bit of your useable hair, but a simple topper might make your routine so much easier.
Since you color your own hair (as I do too) you can get a good match without having to use 2 partials and the couvre (thickener?)
Post a couple pics of what you're doing and the good people here will save you a years worth of trial and error.
A topper would be overkill bro Not everybody is a norwood 7! Although it might sound complicated whenwritten out there isn't much surface area to deal with in coverage so that's a plus when gluing etc. The couvre is a shadowing type concealer - I don't think it really thickens - it ties it all together nicely though.
thanks for the response BA sorry for the hijack
When I read this post my jaw dropped. I am constantly trying to get the front lace just perfect so it is undetectable with my Lace Base. I do a pretty darn good job with ST all around and BB in the front. However, I have to do periodic touch-ups. I don't mind that much. I am still shocked. I had to read these posts over and over again. Sometimes I feel like you are the insane Frankenstein doctor! haha
