Hey Chas -
Great Points. Can you answer a few questions for me?
1. What kind of tape do you use?
2. Do you put the tape on the unit or on your head?
3. What color correcting shampoo? HD's?
4. What leave on conditioner?
5. How long do your units last?
Thanks!

My tips: * I don't remove daily...I remove weekly...just to cut down on lace clean-up. * Thin density is the key to looking natural * Add highlights 10% or so * Always have 2 brand-new units on hand for emergencies * Use color-correcting shampoo at least 3x per week *To reduce/eliminate shiny tape in front, blot with your wife's skin-colored make-up brush *Wear your hair a bit on the messy side-not perfectly combed *Use tape all around - forget glue *Try different styles...including various levels of highlights *Do get human, bleached knots, all-lace systems - they look most natural *Use about a dime sized bit of styling cream lotion by either Crew (CVS) or Cibou... All other products: Use HDs. *Use a leave-on conditioner with sunscreen *Get the satin pillow cases That's about it!
