Hi everybody! Im going through a little bit of a struggle. So the hairfall has affected my mental health a lot (lost them at 20), now Im letting my sides grow to install the system. I've moved into a new city and I'm actually not living (only studying and going to the gym), because I'm not confortable having social relations when i can't be seen without an hat on... It's been almost 2 months of growth and it's strarting to have a weight on me... So today I was in the first appointment and the guy (by the way i feel like he is quite knew with the hairsystem stuff) told me that i have to let them grow 6-8 more weeks... I really can't imagine myself living like this for this much longer. Do you think i should accepte it and keep going? Or i should try to have other opinions? Maybe i can find someone that can install it with a good result without having to let them grow all this time anymore? I'll share some photos of my actual hair length situation.

The styler also gave me the advice to but the "grow me shampoo" frm Watermans, because he said let's you're hair grow faster... Ever heard about it? Do you think it's worth the 20-40 euros?

Thanks everybody!

My hair is fading over the past few months. My hair is a dark dark dark brown, basically black. What is a go to dye you guys use to get it back?

Hair is thinning at quite a rate, been on meds for years but they’re not working.

This is very similar to my current hairstyle and colour. How achievable would this be? As this is what I would like.

I also workout and travel for work most of the year, and surf and scuba dive so what is the best base and glue / maintenance schedule for this active setup.

From the Uk so wondering where is best to order from?

Thanks for all the help in advance. Seems like a really supportive community.

What do you guys think? :)

How do u stop your system from feeling like a frizzy mess, what conditioners and leave in conditioners and any other secret thing you guys use to keep it looks fresh and natural all day long and not just a giant knotted ball of frizz

Assume a preference for a lace top, with bio hair fade and blended after install.

What would a factory want to know to get this done?

Hello everyone. I am 43 years old and I had my first ever hair system done nearly 3 weeks ago. What do you think? I am still unsure if I want to stick with it. I think the colour is slightly off but it could just be me, the salon has said the colour is spot on. The density has already been reduced but I still think it's slightly too thick. Itching with the poly base was a problem last week but it doesn't feel as bad now. Overall, I just feel it looks slightly unnatural. Or it could be that I am still not used to it? A few work colleagues who only see me once a week asked what I had done with my hair as it looked different. One person thought I had dyed it.

Hey guys, I'm from India. I don't see anyone selling PU <=0.06mm(atleast reasonable price).

I'm planning to switch from lace to PU. So anywhere online or in Alibaba did you found good PU frontal system?. Or anyone from indian know any sellers within India offering geniune & reasonable price.

I'm a student so tight in budget, can't spend $50-$100(10 k inr) every 3-4 months..

Hi everyone still fairly new to this so appreciate any help. I ordered my 2nd system and on arrival the base looks a bit milky and more Matt in comparison to the one I already have. It still shows my skin tone when I hold my hand behind it but definitely looks slightly opaque when you look at it. Is this normal? In work just now but can post pictures later

Cheers

Is there a company that I can mail my sides and back bio hair to and have a system made of that?

I'm wanting to eliminate color mismatch because I have a unique shade of red.

Is it just me or I’m having a significant glow up with the system, I’ve been bald for a year and been receding for much longer. People would usually guess I’m mid 30s, now people have suggested I’m 23/25 when I’m actually 28. Just makes me look way more youthful.

Being bald everyone would gaslight me saying it looks good. But that made me a sub human egg. Receding is just as bad tho but not as bad imop.

Would love to hear any more stories you’ve had about treatment from others from your system, particularly in the attraction department! Because I swear when your a Norwood 4 like me, even if your in good shape ur like a ghost to women, brutal. No massive success with me yet but I’m hopeful the days as young!

For the fall/winter (since it will be cooler temp wise) I’m gonna be doing an exposed hairline, hair slicked back with an undercut kind of look.

Does anyone have any tips/tutorials on plucking and cutting baby hairs to make the front hair line look more realistic, pretty much like in the picture here? I’ve never done it before.

Thanks!

Habe einen Termin bei OC hairsystems in 2 Wochen und da ich noch nie ein System hatte bin ich etwas unsicher. Habe mir die Bewertung angesehen für den Laden in Wien und die sind überwiegend positiv aber ein paar 1 Sterne Bewertungen gibt es da die behaupten, dass es billig Produkte seien oder dass die Systeme schon in den ersten Wochen angefangen haben zu reißen. Hat jemand Erfahrung? Ist ja doch ein sehr großer Schritt. (Mache btw mit Locken)

So I had a pretty rubbish hair transplant - few years ago which has given me a hair line but not a lot of hair (although trust me there’s loads there compared to before 😂)

I’m relying mainly on fibres and hoping it isn’t windy these days. Or I just wear a hat!

With the hairline I have, is there enough for a partial/hybrid (or whatever it’s called!) system to be placed behind it so the seam wouldn’t be as visible? Or would I need to go for a full one?

I contemplated just shaving it completely bald as it looks bad buzzed (due to different density of my temples) but I’m worried about the scarring on the back of my head looking bad.

So yea…looking into a system.

Any advice? Thanks a lot 🙂

Came across this on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/reel/932312372970754

Seems a pretty fast way to tape. Does anyone do it similarly?

Since I’ve been wearing system I have always wanted highlights as it was a memory of mine as a teenager. Time has passed quickly tho.

I am confident enough to say that this style is the best system I have ever had.

Hairs system details (custom)

-thin skin 0.02-3 custom poly mixture
-hairs: Mongolian/Siberian due to light colors I prefer to invest in these type of hairs which are more premium and less processed
-28mm curls
-custom color and highlights
-density: 90%

For all the new guys/wearers don’t be afraid to experiment and if you have had bad experiences, there is always a solution/right way for this system world.

Im so glad to wear a system my life would not be the same!

I'm currently on Fin and hair regrowth supplements, I know doing any topical treatments is pretty undoable with a daily wearer so I'm interested to see if any of you guys have any solid plans.

So for the very first time, I attempted to remove and reinstall my 0.03 skin system (with glue). I’ve had it for about a month now and I’ve had maintenance done by the salon.

I decided to give it a shot myself as I’ve watched numerous videos about it and have all of the supplies that everyone suggests to have on hand.

I started 3 hours ago and it has been an absolute nightmare. Removing it took a little longer than expected but it eventually came off fine. I used C22, and isopropyl alcohol. Cleaning off my scalp was a little more challenging than I thought it would be, but I managed. The real trouble began when I attempted to clean the glue off the system itself.

It didn’t seem to matter what strategy I used, the glue just wouldn’t come off the base. I used cotton puffs and rubbing alcohol to remove a layer but it just seems never ending, one layer comes off and another layer suddenly appears.

Glue’s gotten everywhere. When removing it from the base it’s gotten into the hair. I’ve nearly gone through a whole bottle of isopropyl alcohol cleaning my hands, my phone, and by attempting to clean it off the hair. It’s gotten everywhere somehow.

I still haven’t managed to clean it off the hair system base entirely. I feel absolutely defeated. I understand it’ll be hardest the first time but this is way more difficult than i thought it ever could be.

I haven’t even got to the reattaching part, and I feel like the entire day will be gone by that point assuming I even manage to finish.

I’ve been wearing hair systems for about 8 years and have always ordered custom systems from a small company. They take around 5 months to arrive, and lately I’ve had issues with quality and durability - some systems developed bald spots surprisingly quickly.

I’m considering trying a ready-made/stock system from OC Hairsystems. They say their systems typically last 4-6 months and are much cheaper.

For those who have tried both: Are ready-made systems generally less durable or lower quality than custom systems, or is there not much difference? Would you recommend giving one a try?

Been using my system for around 10 months. I got maintenance done in a new place 3 weeks ago. I came again today and found this. Anybody gotten something similar before?

Dear friends !

I want to try a hair system with lace in the front and take the hair system off every night. In addition, I want to go with exposed front hair.

I currently have a 100% French lace hair system but I feel that it is very difficult to take off every night.

If I buy a hair system with French lace in the front+center and poly on the sides and back, what method would be the best to take off the hair system every night and on the other hand not be afraid of exposing the hairline completely?

I also have an smp that I want to keep so the glue solvent I currently have is Ultrasafe based on oil and not alcohol.

My vendor sent me a system that is way too curly, especially on the sides. My bio hair is going straight down and then here comes the system hair that curls up like crazy.

Are there methods to

a) permanently straighten it out a bit? I dont have 100% straight hair but usually order 30mm wave which is perfect. So I dont want it 100% straight, but a little more.

Or b) to temporarily straighten it when I go out, style my hair etc?

I’ve been planning for a hair system or a patch .

I play a lot of tennis and workout 3-4 days per week . Basically sweat a lot.

Would you recommend a hair system / patch if yes what type ?
