There's nothing quite like the feeling of a fresh, newly-dry bond. Especially if you gave your scalp a good shave before rebonding.

Just got up from a nice Saturday shower, shave, rebond, and nap and thought I'd share this :)

My Saturday evening ritual is basically the same, minus the nap.

How long have you been wearing hair? Do you ever have a uncomfortable feeling?

I’ve been wearing for about 2.5 months. This is my first hairpiece.

If you meant whether wearing my hairpiece has ever been uncomfortable, unfortunately, occasionally my scalp does itch under the piece. There’s nothing I can do but maybe “pat” the itchy spot to try to take care of the itch when this happens (it only helps the itch a little bit.)

Other than that, wearing the piece feels fine. So far, it doesn’t make my head feel any warmer than simply having a full head of hair would. But it’ll be interesting to see how it is to wear a hairpiece during summer.

What BB said.

I would also recommend trying a UTS system. They hardly itch. I've been wearing for nearly 2 years and have to say that I completely cannot feel the UTS on my scalp. Clean-up on UTS is a breeze.

Fully bonded lace might also be better, I mean if you're only perimeter-bonding. Clean-up is harder though.

But going back to your original post, yes, love that feeling :D

My first was swiss lace and since then all .03 poly. I've been contemplating trying a lace front with the rest being.05 poly. This is because sometimes in certain light the razor sharp hairline/edge of the poly is very apparent to me.

The thing that keeps me from doing so is worrying about glue seeping through and at worst ruining the system by losing hair, or best case making cleanup and absolute nightmare.

I'm big on Poly for better adhesion (oily skin) but I think the hairline is only Superior to lace for the first day or 2, after that I feel lace is better.

I am wearing skin system from 6 months, it itches for me after 2 weeks of instalation

So I want to try the lace system, you mentioned only perimeter bonding is harder to clean I am thinking the other way around, it is easy to clean if we just tape the perimeter? am I wrong?
