I’ve been so nervous starting this for myself, been thinking of it for years to be honest. This will be the year I’m moving past my fears 🙏 (2024). Thanks for the info!
Man, thanks for being brave enough to do this for us! It’s much appreciated! Great vid!!!!! THANK YOU!!!!
Your welcome ! Ya I’m way past the point of what people think about my hair or lack there of lol I’m not shy at all and just do it lol
You’ve sold me on finally taking the step to make the move to start using hair systems! Thank you!
I'm so glad! thank you for the support!
I’m 42 years old and I have had my head shaved since I was 25. I’m seriously considering doing this and it’s nice to have these videos to go in reference.
From the perspective of being a female unit wearer, this is FRICKING difficult ... Ive been 'laying' mine down for 15 years. (Frontal addition not whole head) you deserve a medal for mastering this alone. even if a hair transplant company approached you as a sponsor and paid, it would not look as good as your unit! Good Job Sir! From UK 🇬🇧 looking mighty fine 😊😊
Well thank you soooo much for that ! That means a lot to me. Ya I have been trying to get it perfect I’m always on a mission of perfection lol ..and it is so refreshing the hear a female’s perspective on this subject ! Thank you so very much for the kind words and thank you for watching ! It really means a lot to me…I will try my best to help others as long as they will listen 😉 again thank you 🙏🏻
You should check out the more recent video of mine on the install too it’s 100 times better
Best truthful DIY I've ever seen! Keep up the good... and never ending work!
This was an awsome video. You are absolutely amazing. Love your work. Very educational and well explained. Great energy and style. Thanks for this video.
thank you for this video. I am new to this and will be using a hair system place to cut and install my units for a few months then will likely move to doing it myself since you've shown us how easy it can be with a little effort.
Fantastic video and a great result. Really informative too.
This is awesome and fascinating. I'm just glad this exists for men.
You look great and you’re hilarious! You helped so many.
All the best!
This is by far one of the best video on the you tube.
thank you soo much for your vulnerability. It really. does make a difference for people in. the same boat.
Kudos! I subscribed not because I learned much from you but your funny reactions made me feel wanting more to see. Good luck and thank you.
You are easy to watch , thanks man
You are the man! I struggle with this shit all the time and it is never right lol band I have watched several videos, yours shows exactly what I wanted to see and these are great tips!
I enjoy your vids.... currently I’m 27 nd i just now started thinning nd very concerned about me being bald. The back crown of my head just started thinning and I’m the kind of guy who thinks ahead.... even though I’m no way near bald i enjoyed doing my research and finding you i am so great full that i found you,.. makes me feel like i never have to deal with being “bald and ugly”
U have really helped me in finding comfort knowing ill be okay and never have to deal with being bald.. From the bottom of my heart THANK YOU for sharing your experience..... THANK YOU SOOOO SOOO SOOO much. U have no idea how much your vids have helped me gain confidence and not worry about the future bald me...lol. Thanks again...
Thank you for that my friend I hope I helped as much as I could ! New video coming today ! Also don’t worry my friend there’s always a fix for everything ...I had the least confidence and it got boosted after I found hair systems drastically...I look at it this way if women can do it why can’t we right ! Stay tuned much more to come my friend I will be here for ya my man don’t worry
Forgot to say thanks for such a great video!!!
Looking good and Hell Yeah!
Thank you sir ! and yes "HELL YA"LOL
Great video, love the humour too 😅
Great video with great humour 🇬🇧
Great personality. Really helpful tutorial 👍
Perfect installation 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Very nice mister .
Thank you so much for the detailed information
Awesome video man! thanks a lot.
I had to watch because I can't believe your hair is not real. That's the best system I have ever seen.
Looks so natural man. That said, I think you would look great with a shaved head too!!
Great video....great NY character too. I miss that about NY.
That looks good man.
Goo Gone is a cheaper alternative than C-22. Also I believe it works better to. Another option is De-Solvit. They are all orange type cleaners. Good job!
Good on you mate totally agree.
Dude your the best
thank you man nice tips
Such a cool guy
Amazing man
Thanks 🔥
Wow! Such an informative and INTERESTING video! I watched this whole 59:17 video from start to finish. Thank you so much for sharing this process with us. Very very helpful!
Well thank you ! I’m trying to help other wearers make their experience go as smooth as possible. I hope I helped people with their installation! Thank you for the feedback it’s much appreciated!
Ah glad I let recommended Kent and others and lavivid caught on with influences and people. Please try to restock soon on the thin poly all around with french lace middle! Thank you.
@@joshgates2671 We will! :)
@@LaVividHairSystem yes please, I hope the bigger you guys get the quality always stays this outstanding. And now I think we will need a bigger stock order on the hybrids now ;], since thats what people will mostly want with the many advantages they have. All the best! Waiting patiently, so I can get my customs every month from you guys. Keep it up!
Great video Love the self deprecation humor lol... I'm a long time wearer So I remember the early days of trying to have everything perfect. Would like to know if you have tried a .09 Thickness so you could avoid all that headache on cleaning? I was shocked at how much more durability I got with minimal appearance loss.
So I've done my own hair style when I was younger and they were always on point.. now since I'm older balding has set in so I am researching the units . And I just have to say you nailed exactly how I be feeling in @ video time 10:07. Hahahaha I literally Lmmfao.. but you look great and did a awesome job ..
Damn this is exactly what I needed earlier when I did my first removal and reinstall. It was a long grueling process but now that I have this it's going to help a ton. Thanks man!
Quick question, Did your MHE scalp protector come with a dab pad thing? Mine is a dab one and I'm not sure it was very effective. If you removed it, how did you do so?
An easy tip I do for the tape on the back. I apply the tape to the system itself and leave the backing tabs on the Side that sticks to scalp. Position on head to correct position roll up unit from the back pull tabs off a few at a time and lay the unit down. Then I glue the front
Appreciate the feedback my man ..im open to all suggestions. Since i have been doing my own hair for a while now thats my method that i find easiest ...but thanks for the tip my friend
50:00 OMG the convertible top I love it!!
I go in to get my hair system Dec 26th I'm paying big money to get it professionally done but I will transition into a DIY hair system guy cause I cant afford 350.00 a month
100.00 a month seems to be the general consensus if you buy direct
Bravo!
Thank you my friend I try !
Loved this video, especially the face you made when you were on camera with your system off, made me ROFL! More so BC I know how that feels when you look in the mirror. Forget about showing it to the world to see! I literally have nightmares about me forgetting my system at home!
Anyway I had a question about 2 things
1. I dont understand what scalp protector does. I've never used it in the 25 years.I have been wearing a system.
2. What product do I use for keeping the hair shiny and smooth?
thanks!
Also try the ultra hold tape, it works better than super tape. U can get a yard roll. Also scalp protector walker max sport. And also for easier clean up u can put recliner tape before the ultra hold tape
Watched it all the way through. Is a great video man. Also, you actually rock the bald look with the hair on the side really well, gonna be honest. Only a few people can do that. X-Files' Skinner style.
Really like this Cat
I have an installation coming up (that I want to do at home) it'll be my first one, I am about 2 weeks into my unit. Thank you for this video.
Welcome my friend hope it helps ya
Recommended channel mate 🙏 new sub here
@@DannyEvs Awesome, thanks!
How’s it going Dave? Having my first system done in 2 weeks I’m nervous
@@mister.c4631 it’s going well man. You should be stoked! First week or two takes getting used to. Not going to lie, it was tough! But now! I can’t imagine life without it. Way too stoked and don’t even notice it. It’s just me now 🙂 - keep us all updated man!!
Excellent. No reason to be bald these days. Have the hair you want. Looks great.
I got to give it to you Douche Canoe, this look isn't bad. Since the other RUclips Hairpiece Influencers current units are off track... it moves you up. Keep it up
Thanks douche canoe I’m glad we agree on something
Mr. Sanman lalal...
Lol brother excellent video and you had me laughing with your edits. That's the style I'm going with. They've come a long way since the clip on ones. Thanks again for both the information and the entertainment. Question, did you order straight or slight wave ?
your very welcome and thank you ...it has a body wave ill get you the exact mm of wave when i find it ...They have come a long way i agree
I just use a dab-on tube of Mity-Tite (unless I'm going swimming, then I use Ultra Hold). It's a lot less trouble than dealing with tape or paintbrushes with drippy glue. I just rub it onto the front first and get that installed just right, then I do the back. I don't use scalp protector. I did for a little while because the shop I used to order from told me I should, but I stopped using it and didn't notice any difference. I find the right placement point by raising my eyebrows and looking at the lines that appear; there are four lines and then a notch above the fourth line that indicates where my facial muscles end and my scalp starts. If I put the unit on lower than the fourth line, it will be too low and wrinkle with my facial expressions, but if I put it above the notch, it will give me a receding hairline look that I don't want, so I try to get it just below the notch.
If I do use Ultra Hold, I apply Mity-Tite first, and then put some Ultra-Hold on the brush, wipe of the excess on the bottle so it won't drip into the hair, and then apply a super thin layer of it. Sometimes I'll apply Ultra Hold a little heavier in the middle of the unit, but I try not to apply too much of it near the edges because it seeps out eventually and makes a mess (I do go all the way to the edges with the Mity-Tite because it's not as messy as Ultra Hold).
I stopped using tape a long time ago because it's less comfortable, it tends to rip the base sometimes, and if you use it in the front, it can be visible sometimes. I also had a bad experience once where a piece of tape slid out onto the middle of my forehead at work and I didn't realize it until I got into my car to go home.
Best hairline ever! But which one is it,an a or aa or what?
Have a nice day 👍
Yes it's a long video but I watched all of it and learned a lot. Only thing is that try to not comb it too much because it will decrease the longevity of the system. Other than that thank you and keep up the great work.
I put the tape on first during the set up on the poly then lay it down and lift it in front like u did and put the ultra hold on the poly in the front
Out the bond only in the front hairline about 2-3 inches back then taped the rest
Thanks for sharing this. You make look real easy. I'm still prepping mentally to get this done. I'm a little nervous and excited @ the same time.
Your very welcome ! Once your start trust me you will love it lol I was beyond nervous the first time but faster I tried my hand at it it worked like a charm ...granted after a few tries but I got used to it ...and I won’t ever look back my friend
@@SanzHS915 hey bro, just thought I'd come back for a quick update and say thank you one more time. I finally decided to give this a shot a couple of weeks ago. The first time I installed it, I kind of did it my way and it turned out OK. A week later I removed it and re did it exactly the way you show us and it worked so much easier and looked much better. I'm not as fast cleaning it though 😕 I still gotta work on that. Well thanks again and when is the next video coming???
Great video mate, really thorough . My local hairdresser says I need to get it cut and styled, you cant order the right style, size etc online. How do you order the right hair system ? Oh it has to be cotton bud, bud .. UK
I like v-looped ultra thin skin systems because they're the most comfortable and have the most realistic hairline, but I CONSISTENTLY have problems with the side part, at least on the stock units. They're advertised as "freestyle", but that part is NOT adjustable. It won't budge from where it is, and it's usually not in exactly the right spot and doesn't look right. Is there anything I can do about that (OTHER THAN slicking my hair straight back with gel to hide it)? Would a custom unit be less likely to have this problem? Would I HAVE TO order a permanent part?
Great video my man! Anything new coming out?
Do they have hair pieces with bangs? It seems like most guys pull the hair back or have it short with shaved sides.
Excellent. I want desperately a flat back style toupee. Where do you get these. Love the density and the combed flat back style. You nailed it
This is the mirage 1B10 poly skin system from LaVivid...I love it ! And thank you for the feedback friend
@@SanzHS915 so is it naturally flat back? Most v loop systems puff out. Did you order a specific direction? Bear with me, what curl and what density?
@@seanodonnell2508 Im Wondering the SAME exact thing, how is not puffing up?!?
I was wondering what your front shape is? Is it A, AA, or CC?
Oh, and did you supply them with your own template or did you just measure and fill in their online forms to order your system?
Love the crying.. Love my hair, perfect, I loved mine too, when I had hair! Man thank you so much for a simple and down to earth. It's going to start my new hair sytem!!!
do you recommend mhe hair system invisiskin or lavivid skin?
thinking of buying one mate but im nervous.If you didnt do a refit every week how long would it last >?? and how do i know head size when i buy one like it says 6inch 8 inch ...if i give u my email can u help mestartme off where to go and what to buy please
Like the slick back look …
Hey man, I love the channel. Keep it up.
How long does each unit last you before you have to replace it?
I have had a System last me about a year I take great care of mine ...and yes it is possible to last that long I have done it plenty of times lol
@@SanzHS915 Wow that's brilliant. Thanks for replying, man
Thank you sooo much for this video!!
lmao, thank you for the inspiration .
Thanks for the education. Question, It didn't look as if the side tape went all the way to the edge of the system, thoughts?
It never does unless you trim the system down to fit exact I don’t trim the poly unless I want a different hairstyle it has more hair for my style if that makes Sense lol but everyone does trim it down …thank you for your feedback
I put the ultra hold directly on the poly and not the scalp in the front. Does putting it direclt on the scalp give a better look for the hairline, so that whitness on poly doesn't show?
This is what I wanna know too. Did you figure it out in the end? (3 years later!)
@mythinktube it's just too much hassle to put on scalp, since way bigger room for error. Too much and it can get in hair. But I still put in directly on the poly.
@joshgates2671 yeah same here
The hardest part is having that one chance putting it on yourself without it looking of line
Really appreciate this video. Thank you!
What%alcohol do you use to give you the 30 secs to adjust?🧐
I believe it is the 91 percent ..use it for all my installations ..thank you for your support
Great job! I’m the professional and think you’re fabulous! Doing a great service!!
Wow
Is that a good wow or bad wow lol ?
Hey one question: you put it first on without glue when its dry to see where it should be ? And then glue the front ? Doens´t know that it holds on the head without glue
It stays in place because its a little damp but i swear by that method its so easy
thats his method but thats not what is recommended to do, have your hair system and base completely dry and clean, no dump at all, have your head shaved and apply all the products needed ? cleaner, antibacterial protector etx, you will place the stickers on the base of your wig before put it it in your head, and go from there, there are really good professionals tutorials out there on youtube. Look t hat is his method it works for him,
Lad the hairline looks insane! Side note how come you don't tape/glue straight on the system? I seem to be the only guy who does this.
Great Steven Segel hairline.
Lmao thank you
Hi, whats the brand of the blue brush? Can you share the link?
The glue brush ??please specify I’m not sure if your referring to the hair brush or glue brush
Try witch hazel on your scalp not as harsh as alcohol
Do you apply the scalp protect after putting in the ghost bond? Is it necessary to use?
I don’t use ghost bond yet I only have skin units and with those I use walker ultra hold ...but stay tuned I was sent a lace system to try out ...it will be my first time wearing a lace unit so I will make multiple videos on my experience with it ...hope you stay tuned for the content ...have been going through a lot my, my computer crashed with everything on it and wiped everything out ...I’m restoring to get back to RUclips ! Thanks for the feedback my friend ! Appreciate ya
But to answer that.. scalp protector always goes on first ...clean your head good along with exfoliator and shave if you need (not in that order ) if you do that’s fine also lol but then only then you put your scalp protector on then your bond of choice ! Hope that helps friend
i find it hard to make hairline cut when its new i mess it up please make a video on that
I will try to get one done for ya pal !
Hey man. 3 questions if you've got the time.
Colour fading! What product do you use? I'm hearing a lot about RedKen, how do you choose the right colour for your hair.
I've done a re-install a few days ago, put my unit on a little slanted. Is it damaging to the unit to do another re-install so soon?
I want to place my unit higher than the original hairline we chose. Should I shave my hairline at the back to account for the excess base, or should I cut the base at the back to fit my current shaved scalp line?
Thanks a lot man
Sorry I was on vacation I will answer these questions when I get home today in great detail for you my friend ...I am just getting to my comments now ...but I promise I will answer them later on today in great detail for you as best I can ! 😎💪🏻 thanks for the feedback and stay tuned I’ll get back to you really soon
@@SanzHS915 :)
So sorry for the late response...the reply is coming today ...been running around like a chicken without a head ...I want to answer your questions concisely so that’s why it’s taking a bit ..kids drive me nuts too lol I’ll talk to you really soon
@@SanzHS915 Sounds good! Take your time!
Ok sorry this took that long but here goes ! I use the pro hair labs leave in conditioner with spf protection for the sun and color fading
Had that happen quiet a few times also don’t feel bad lol what I did was take it off immediately..if your unit is skin take your time and don’t rip it of course and redo it if you can ...I am very meticulous with everything if it’s not straight I can sleep at night and need to remedy it ASAP lol so if you can make it perfect ! Ain’t nothing wrong with that lol
Want to know what I do for that ? It may sound crazy but since my unit hair is long on top I leave the excess it never comes out or is noticeable ...but if your hair is short I would recommend taking it off ...I try also not to touch the hairline at all because I have the push back style ..but if there is excess poly skin on the front I take only the poly off...that’s just my advice friend ...as I said my front hairline is priority for me lol so I hope that helped ...I would take it off in the back where it’s less noticeable ! Let me know if I can help out in any way I will try my best ...as I said in the start of this novel comment I wrote lol I’m having a world of problems with my work machine (computer) trying to sort it out ...but I have many videos coming out next week once I’m back on track with my machine !
Have you noticed any side effects with using the walker glue ?
Not many tbh the only problem I have had with it is it don’t last long and breaks down fairly quickly
Why not go for a .05 poly all around with French lace in the middle? The breathability feels amazing. Doesn't all poly get hot and sweaty?
Got one coming from LaVivid for testing ! A hybrid French lace and poly hybrid I’m excited to try it I have never used French lace before ! Thank you for your feedback
And no it breaths because I don’t glue the entire system I use tape I’m the middle and back ! So it is not completely sealed ...have had no issues with overheating and such
@@SanzHS915 ahh I i tried that too for a full poly only the front,side and back attached, couple times but ended up just taking it off because it got so hot and itchy. Couldn't stand it. This hybrid I told lord hair to make and soon enough all the other companies started having it in their stock too. You'll enjoy the hybrid so much more, the breeze feels so good and no sweat traps. Thank you for helping forward this movement! Once the demand for hybrid goes up, I think they will start improving the technology for this concept even more hopefully.
What wig is better mhe or your company
I saw couple of videos from other people and noticed the scalp color is always different than rest of the face. Is it because of frequent use of hair system? Are there any side effects?
No it’s sun tan lol when your scalp is covered the sun doesn’t penetrate the system so you will have a line from where it ends ...I have had no issues or side effects with my system and I have had it over 5 yrs ...I will say my scalp gets itchy but I remedy that with my brush by brushing my hair ..the motion contact relieves the itch ..other than that people tell me what wonderful hair i have lol it looks so natural especially if you get he skin system it blends beautifully! I will be making more videos soon I hope you stay tuned my friend and I hope that helps to answer your question !
Thanks for great tips. Now May I? Try to reduce rubbing your nose so much😉.
👍
34:50 poet :p
46:35 this guy is hilarious lol
Plz forward the link to purchase the mirror
search amazon for "3 way mirror" it should show hope that helps
As you can see from my pic, I shave my head. I revisited this video because I have been thinking about getting a system. As much as I like the way yours looks, it is too time consuming for me and I don't want to spend $150 for a redo. Wish there was an easier and cheaper alternative.
How does the unit stay on in the beginning before you put the glue and tape ?
If you mean before installing…it just sticks to your head lol
@@SanzHS915 oh wow! Mine is sliding around like skates on an ice-skating rink 🤔 and you can even comb into place
Being that I clean it with soap and shampoo and stuff the skin systems just stay in place ..granted if it gets dry it will move around but I try to do it as fast and as little time as possible to make my lines and get it up to set the glue and such
Hello mate. What hair system do you use and where do you buy it from ?
LaVivid mirage 1B
This is the funniest shit ever I watch this when I feel sad
Glad you got a kick out of my misery lol 😆
you seem like a pretty common-sense type of guy; it's not as simple as feeding the dog. but would rather change my unit daily instead cooking. easy you make it look easy and really is, but before your perfect, maybe couple weeks of practice will make it a wiz. great video
So better to use tape instead of glue ?
No glue on the front definitely and tape on the back and sides for me
33:46 please give me the keyword or name for finding this spray of water , i really need it 🙏 ❤
Bought it on AliExpress just go to their site and search water bottle / sprayer …also that 3 way mirror is on Amazon for cheap too …search 3 way mirror and you will find it …hope that helps
@@SanzHS915 thank you
Great vid love the confidence BUT... most the time we can not see what u are doing ... keep the hair every time ✌
Hey man! How long does your system from them last? I really want an exposed hairline like yours but I know that base doesn’t last as long! Great vid and thank you!
Shoot ! ...I can have them last a year if I wanted I had two that’s lasted 9 months lol and your welcome ...just take care of them and they will last trust me and they are poly systems too
every few days you do maintenance?
Not really just alittle seepage from the front but that’s it
