    HAIR STYLING OPTIONS

    Thanks for the post. :) Is your hair layered near the front as well? The reason I ask is b/c though I have some diffuse thinning all over and a spot at the back of the head (crown?) that is thin, the most noticeably thin part of my hair is at the front of my head! Ick! :x I've also...
