So how many days do you get out of the system?
Im using a poly/lace combo and every few days the back of my unit and sides always come off (i must have a very oily head :/). I would like for it to stay one for a week or so because I hate dealing with the messy adhesive. Any recommendations? Also, do you wait until the unit comes off or do you just have a routine of doing it every x days.

By day 7 mines a gooey mess.

Experiment with an antiperspirant and use a scalp protector ...such as Max hold sport

7 is ideal. 10 is doable. 14 is pushing it, with the tape feeling goopy.

French lace btw. I don’t use glue.

I wear an all Swiss lace custom system in a central parting, 10 -12 inches length with 1 inch Supertape round the edges and the unexposed part of the hairline, with Walker Tape 'no shine' strips at the front of the parting (or sometimes a bit of Walker Tape adhesive, which works ok). I usually detach/reattach every 2 - 3 weeks. I usually push it to 3 weeks and it's fine, though perhaps starting to get a tad loose by the end of the 3 weeks sometimes. I have to touch up the hairline once or twice a week (just the area where the parting starts, with the tape strips or adhesive, which takes no more than 10 minutes). But the 2 - 3 week region works great for me, and means I can make my system last longer too because there's less damage/wear and tear caused by constant detaching/reattaching. I've surprised myself how long I can wear between each attachment (I would NOT recommend leaving it on more than 3 weeks btw) and how long I can make my systems last (my previous system lasted 10 months - I reckon I could get 12 months out of my current system as it's better quality and has shedded less than my last system).

Hairline about 7-10 days; whole scalp about 2 weeks. I can push it to 3 weeks but beyond that it gets too loose.
