    Best look ever, Jake. That's the most undetectable system I've ever seen you wear. Keep it!

    What an insight!. The installing salon told me not to wash my brand-new system for 3 days. I felt it was too bouncy. You nailed it!

    Nailed it with this one Jake….that style is perfect on you 😊👌🏽
    First time use, I wash the scalp side of the base with dish soap, and the hair with head & shoulders….seems to work 😂 once it’s on, I slick it with brilliantine or pomade….I wear it slicked back Chicano style though 😂
    Had my new one Viking battle braided yesterday…. 0.3mm base and it look awesome…completely invisible! These things are more style versatile than the wearers courage often allows. Great content bro…keep up the good work 👌🏽

    Cool info thanks man I’m 10 days into having my first unit and it was great the first 4-5 days now,it’s just wavy at the front and has alittle puffiness I’ll wash a bit more often now and hope it does the trick

    I order my hairsytems and bring it to my stylist to have it cut in. Can I wash it a couple times and comb out the waves and curls first. Its comes long and curled before being cut and styled may be a little more work but will save time and wont have to worry about the puffiness once its cut and styled. Will that work?

    How long can the poofyness last? It’s so hard to judge the length in the salon because I usually hate it right away to be honest. I also don’t want it to be too short and hard to style. Any suggestions? I’ve had mine a week and still seems a little poofy

    Better when you buy a new one to wash it a few times and let it sit before wearing it. Otherwise you'll need to spend a few days looking like a mushroom

    Great topic Jake! And great info for guys looking to do this 👍
    I got a light density and after first install i got home and freaked out 😂 Was like "this was a mistake!" Hair was SOOO Poofy and just BIG! It honestly looked like I head a dead animal on my head 😂"Poofyness" subsided significantly over next 2 days and I breathed a huge sigh of relief! It looked way better by day 3!
    Great info and reasons behind poofy new hair, and great advice to correct this 👍💪❤

    Hey! Love your videos - I've finally decided (after months of watching your videos) to get a hair system. Just had my consultation yesterday! I had a question though - my stylist that I went to recommended that since my hairline is still nearly intact, I should leave a little bit of it in the front and attach my hair system behind it. I was wondering if you've heard of this before and whether or not you recommend going about this way as to completely shaving down and replacing my current hairline (eg. in terms of maintenance, durability, comfort, etc.). Thanks!

    • @seetherryan1
      @seetherryan1 Před 3 lety +2

      I have seen some videos where they do this, they do it to make the hairline look even more natural. If I was you I'd try it you can always shave it off next install.

  • @srg2972

    great advice again,,,, can i ask a question as you know hair systems fade,,, would you go one stage darker than your hair sample so when it does lose couture it may be better after the first month and last longer,, thank you sir

      @@RockRock-fs2zk If you can't see the guys hairline in any spot on his forehead...then it's a wig/system. Supposedly the wigs/systems used by actors in movies are made so very thin at the base that they actually do look like a real hairline...the problem is that it takes an army of hairstylists hours to put those on and they have the longevity of about 8 to 10 hours before they start falling apart.

    You should include the name and density of your unit whenever you make a video. Why don’t you? European men have the greatest difficulty finding a comparable system. PLEASE. PLEASE. PLEASE. Put it in the description box and tell us.
