You are my hero. I still have my hairline, but it is getting very thin overall in a widow's peak, and when I watched one of your videos the other day, I felt a thrill that displaced the dread I've been feeling for years now, just looking forward to inevitably being bald. But seeing you be so casual about it and confident, best way to describe it, you strengthen me and I really appreciate you putting yourself out there. Your vibe is fire bro
Well I tell you Mr Joseph, that system you have makes you look many many years younger, happier, cool and confident Monsieur. Congratulations for grasping the reality of Good Hair Days and I look forward to following your fine example in little old England. Fabulous !
This was very helpful. I was scared to fit it myself as I was worried the positioning would be off. But your technique of positioning it and then bonding the front, then back seems much simpler. I will try it.
Great video bro! I’m literally waiting outside the salon to have my first hair system installed. 80% excited 20% scared to death… or maybe it’s the other way around lol. Keep doing what you’re doing man. Wish me luck! 🤞
Thanks man. I really appreciate that. And will do! Maybe a video all about tailoring the style of the unit? With thinning shears, hairline, blending, etc?
Very informative video Mike… Thanks! I know guy who uses a hairband to hold his unit in place while he’s glueing the front. Then removes the band and finishes the back. Cheers
Hey thanks! I actually don’t do anything other than trim it. Ever notice the hairline is imperfectly v-looped where some areas are thinner/thicker and some hairs may not come to the edge of the base? I trim it so it’s imperfect but lines up with where the hairs have been placed. That’s it!
Fantastic video thank you for doing this. Only feedback I will give you is how different the color of your bio hair from your hair system. Have you thought about it? You can maybe get away with it if you ask your barber to shave the bio hair and fade it gradually moving up the grades. Right now in the vid it looks a little off. Please take this critique from a place of love brother.
Help! Michael you look fantastic! I've tried 3 different hair systems, but they always have this curl & so hard to style. Like a mop on my head. Can you please tell me where you bought yours & more importantly the specs. I want straight hair I can style like yours. Are those high-lites gray? (Your Look) would be perfect for me.
Hey thanks! Do you have the unit cut by a stylist or a barber? The unit by itself has too much hair and curl to be manageable. If you do have it cut then I’d try cutting it shorter potentially.
Thanks for your videos mate.. I literally spend $200 a month going to the salon for this.. I am curious how do you cut your hair.. Do you do that yourself too.
I just want to say that your hair looks great!! Also wanted to ask you, Where did you buy it, how much it cost and where do you get the glue and things to take care of it. Thank you
Where should someone start? My husband has dreamed of one for years but is put off by the process. We are near Sacramento, CA... should we start calling barbershops asking about "hair systems"? Is that the way to phrase it?
This video is amazing! Ty for posting this! I reinstalled my hair system 2 times with just gluing the system, accidentally having it too far back or too far up and lifting it off, and back and forth and it was a nightmare! Getting my hairs stuck under it as well! Bleh! THIS is legit! Thanks again!
Yo Mike! What if I still have hair and want to use that because I am balding? Like my "hair" underneath the Hair System would grow and do what? Would I have to FRESH shave the top of my head weekly? monthly? For reference I am balding at a level that product like Toppik would "hide" the balding, but I can feel that it wont last long still ( did that for almost 5 years though!) But now I am kinda looking into "THE NEXT STEP" haha. Thank you very much bro, hope you see this!
Some people do Clip In systems if you’ve got hair to attach it to! Orrrr you could just shave it down and have a more secure attachment for 1-2 weeks at a time. Are you fairly active in life?
@@michaeljosephghd I mean I am average active, I work 5 days a week in thr car business and go to the gym 2 to 3 times a week. And one random question: All the pills they try to sell us is a scam right? Meaning hair system would be my best AND only way ? Thanks for replying you the best bro!
Hello Michael! Can someone like me who trains 5 times a week , pretty much sweat everyday and shower everyday, wear one of these for 4 weeks at a time before refreshing it?
Which hair system do you buy and what are you wearing in this video? Looks skin based. What thickness and size of the skin is it? Company you buy from? Thanks in advance!
One of the best and most clear videos I’ve seen about application! Does this method work for a very secure hold for up to 10-14 days? Or would you recommend putting another layer of ultra hold or tape on the back if we wanted a bit more hold time?
Hello Michael, Great Video, Great Content and done the right way! I am new to the hair system world. I just got one done down in Miami. I do have several questions though: 1- Is the unit seen on this video of yours lace or poly? 2- Mine is attached to my scalp with just tape. The front inner rim with some double sided and curved small tape pads and the sides and back inner rim with one that comes in a roll. For some reason the little squares bond way better than the roll. A) Is it possible to use the small curved tape pads along the whole inner perimeter and ditch the roll? B) Is it okay to use liquid adhesive in addition to the tape and if so directly on the unit or just on the scalp? I ask this because in other videos I have watched they recommend not to add liquid adhesive directly onto the unit because you can damage the breathability of it. 3) At this moment i am only using the tape as i mentioned earlier. (little curved squares in the front and the roll for the sides and back). No liquid adhesives of any kind but i feel the unit extremely loose and slidy when sweating or after a shower. The moment i take it off and dry my scalp and the unit with a hairdryer the unit regains its bonding capabilities just by doing that. This scenario is not good for me becase i want to have an active lifestyle where I can sweat and get wet without having to make any plans for these things. What do you suggest here? Do you think the liquid adhesive directly on my scalp and in direct contact with the tape from the unit will help with this particular issue? Any other suggestions are greatly appreciated!!!
Hey man, great questions! I also live an active lifestyle and couldn’t find a way to make the tape work for me. I typically wear an all poly unit and use ultra hold to adhere the entire thing. From hairline sides and back, even the middle of the unit literally 100% attached by liquid adhesive. Works great, breathe just fine, and I can snorkel, scuba, even skydive with no problems!
Awesome! Thanks for your quick answer. So your unit is poly but i was told that on lace units it is not a good idea to use liquid adhesive directly on the unit but instead around the edges where the tape is and on the scalp. Do you know anything about that? What about using the curved square pads along the whole inner perimeter?
How much is this hair piece and how much do the products cost per mo or how often do you have to purchase the products? Also do you need to shave your head completely to put the application down on the scalp and hair piece? I’m glad you showed how to do this at home because I have the absolute hardest time getting my haircut because I’m so insecure about my hair loss because it has ruined all of my self confidence about myself. Also what’s the website for all of this?
ok so do you go to a regular salon to keep your natural hair cut and blended with the hair system? Also how often are you replacing the hair system, and do you go to a salon for the initial cut in?
Yep! I’ve been to salons and to barbers I replace it every 3 months or so mostly because I want a fresh system with a different look/style. I have never cut a system myself so I always get my barber to do it!
Hello my fried! Can I ask you... My head sweats a lot... :( Particularly front area... I tried to wear combo system like lace and skin. My question is: now I want try full skin system, what kid of bond I have to use to feel secure? I assume the same way like yours is the best - clear bond glue? Or tape? Help me please with an advice :) Thanks a million :)
You still have to deal with touch ups thru the week. Running to the salon at 7:30 a.m. is not possible. So you need to be able to handle those situations yourself and have the products at home to handle them.
Great video, I’d like your help in choosing my first system! Also have you ever tried using tape? Or do you prefer the glue specifically. Any help would be greatly appreciated Thanks
Can you please do a list of all the products with thier information that you used -type of hair model -type of exfoliant -type of glue -best clear type With links possibly. Thank you for the vid
I have plenty of hair, but I would LOVE this style to death. The key differences would be mine would be jet black, have MJ style "baby hair" on one side, and cool freestyle designs on the sides.
Your videos are awesome. For the first time I’m considering trying this. I just would love to find a place that could do the fitting and install the first time. Do you know if hairclub for men is essentially doing this? Or are there certain keywords to find a hair system shop locally? Thx again for the videos!
Just got my first system professionally cut and installed and love it! I'm debating whether or not to go back for maintenance in a few weeks but kind of also want to save the money. How difficult was it the first time?
Ya know, I’ve done it from the start. Then I paid someone else to do it thinking it would be wildly better. It wasn’t! I’d recommend as long as you have an adhesive remover like C22, some cotton balls, and an adhesive that works for you, then go for it!
@@michaeljosephghd I'm planning on doing this but do you have the links to all the stuff you used in the video? the link you have in the description is no longer working
I w never done this and I was wondering how do u know size and color if it's ordered..I've been wearing a cap every day since 2005 and I want to feel what it's like to walk outside with confidence wen I don't have my cap on ... please help me 🙏
Hey I watched your video last night. I consider myself to be some what of a pro installing my own system but the first time I put on a new unit before it’s cut it seems always to come crooked. I just purchased a new unit and I used your method of installing the unit and I have to say it came super perfect thank you for that information 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I know EXACTLY what you mean. And this dry fit method just seems to help, especially when you’ve got all that hair in the way. Glad to have some feedback on this and glad it worked out for you!
That’s exactly right! I spray it and let it sink in for about 5 minutes while I clean my scalp and shave. Makes it MUCH easier to remove with a cotton ball.
Is the unit single-use disposable? I saw on the Toupee hair description that it's good only 3-6 weeks and it is disposable, not worth of buying new units every month then, thanks in advance for replying
Thanks for the video! I wish I had watched this before having to toss my UTS unit.. What about if you apply a system that has lace or mono? You can't apply the adhesive to the unit itself then, can you? Also, how long do you use the UTS system for before it starts losing too much hair? I've used the Ghost Bond XL and when I sweat while working out, it seems to make the glue too watery and it gets in the hair fibers, making them clump up and then fall out as I'm trying to fix it..
Great stuff just found you and love your excitement 😀 OK got a question... As I have seen: you love poly , I have had one in the past but find that you can see 2/2 mm of the poly e.g::: shine with the first few mm: do you think I have not cut the unit enough to the hair. If that makes sense.... Thank you sir. I'm from the 🇬🇧 Thanks for your time and support 🙏
Man you made this look chill and relaxing, very awesome… i will have my first unit in a month.. waiting on the order to come in. Have you ever tried hair skeen systems?? That’s what i went with for round one
Hi mate; just wanted to know about the glue you use; do you think that it’ll be good for someone that workout at the gym 6 times a week; like I have been using tape and the glue come out and mess with the hair; that is why I was wondering if the glue does that?
@@michaeljosephghd thanks man your way seems way easier than the tape I been using. I just got a system last month so I’m still trying to figure things out lol
Apologies for the delay! They can last me about 3-4 months before I want to change it out. It could probably last longer but I tend to want a fresh system at that point.
Hey man thanks for all the information? I'm 44 and have been back and forth on a system and HT . For a first time hair system user would you recommend one that you trim the lace down to fit or buy a pre fitted one?
tips on applying a uncut system? the hair is long and i feel like its in the way. can't see what im doing. cant find a single video of somebody applying an uncut system
Thanks for the video brother. I'm thinking of getting one. But all these videos and styles are all the same. The hair is combed back. Would it look natural if I wanted a shaggy look? Like a skater type look? I'm a young guy.. Subbed.
Good instructions on cleaning. I feel better with tape though. I do have to wonder why you don't let the hair the back of your head to grow and meet the rest of your hair? It almost looks like you need a unit there too. Let that hair grow and your whole head would look great
Ya know, it kind of just looks like that with how the hair falls with this specific system. If you want a widows peak you could actually shape the system to do that by cutting the base a little!
Well I see comments from years ago. So i wonder if you'll reply. Like the earlier text I sent you, I'd like to know what you think of the unit I'm getting put on literally tomorrow Aug 7 2023. Mine has a scalloped front. What do you think of that.
I just came across your video and I’m window shopping for a hair system. Any suggestions for a trusted online store to get one? From where did you get yours?
Thanks man! And I usually get mine from Lordhair. I’ve got some discount links and codes in the video description for you too (helps us both out!). They’ve been awesome to work with and the products and service is great.
At first I was, but after 2 years of not being the most gentle with them, I’ve never torn it myself. One system I wore for too long and naturally it did rip on an edge (only about .5”) and even that wasn’t noticeable.
Hi Mike. A quick couple of questions please: How comfortable is the system on your head? Does it get irritating after a while? Question 2: What material system would you recommend? a system made from real hair? or others? Thanks. Jon
100% real hair is vital. They're comfortable unless you sweat a lot and your skin reacts to the adhesive. Then it gets itchy and sore. Swiss lace is best, but can be difficult to maintain. I find that poly units feel like having plastic on your head, don't allow your scalp to breathe and you can see the poly shining through the hair. You're basically forced to have a high hair density, which for most people will look very fake. So I would say go Swiss lace, or a swiss lace poly blend, with a lower density. Poly is also bad for any exposed hairlines - you can quite easily see this guys poly liner when he pulls his hair back. It's extremely obvious.
Hey Michael, love your videos, question for you, I’m considering starting to use hair systems for fear of side effects of hair loss drugs. But I roll Jiu jitsu about 3x a week… is Jiu jitsu and hair systems something that could go together if I was to replace the system every couple weeks like you do? Or is Jiu jitsu and hair systems something that just wouldn’t go together?
That’s a tough question. From what I (think) I know of BJJ is that you’re rolling around, getting super sweaty, and even using your head as part of the match. In my mind I’d think that may be a bit too much, but there’s only one real way to find out 😎 If you’re able to get one, try it out in a less intense match then work up, I’d recommend it. If it’s a fresh install you may be just fine, if it’s been on a couple weeks it’ll get slippery I’d imagine.
@@michaeljosephghd I scheduled a free consultation at local hair restoration center. I’ll mention to them the frontal hair piece. Hoping my results are as good as yours 🙏
I’m new to this and I came across this video because doing my research lol so this may sound really stupid but can you shower with it on ? Or do you cover it up and shower ?
Thank you so much for uploading these videos. I'm going on January 5th for my hair consult to get my first ever hair system installed and I am very excited! I'm going to Europe in June and will be there for 3 months though so I am definitely looking ahead to how to clean and reattach the unit myself! Ironically my name is also Michael Joseph lol
How is it that the men units look way more natural than many of the female units I’ve seen. I know he’s on camera which is different from seeing someone in person but I SWEAR if he didn’t take off that unit, no way he could’ve convinced me that wasn’t his own hair. Im a female with some hair loss issues and I thinking about getting a unit. I don’t mean to get personal but Im wondering would this stay put during intimacy? And did I hear him say he goes snorkeling in the unit? If so, that’s amazing! So this doesn’t come off if you work out 5-6x a week and you sweat like heck?
Wow, your hair piece looks amazing. Did it instantly change your confidence or was you a little self conscious the first time you had it done? I'm considering it. Great video ✌️
You are my hero. I still have my hairline, but it is getting very thin overall in a widow's peak, and when I watched one of your videos the other day, I felt a thrill that displaced the dread I've been feeling for years now, just looking forward to inevitably being bald. But seeing you be so casual about it and confident, best way to describe it, you strengthen me and I really appreciate you putting yourself out there. Your vibe is fire bro
Well I tell you Mr Joseph, that system you have makes you look many many years younger, happier, cool and confident Monsieur. Congratulations for grasping the reality of Good Hair Days and I look forward to following your fine example in little old England. Fabulous !
That was the best demonstration on replacement of my unit. Thank you. This is Anthony.
Thank you again that was the best demonstration of taking off inputting on my unit
I watched all your videos. So far this hair system you’re wearing is the best look.
This my favorite hair guy. So real and cool, only person I can stand to watch every video
Bro, I'm a big critic of this things, no one really escape. Yours is really good, great job u did bro
This was very helpful. I was scared to fit it myself as I was worried the positioning would be off. But your technique of positioning it and then bonding the front, then back seems much simpler. I will try it.
Great video bro! I’m literally waiting outside the salon to have my first hair system installed. 80% excited 20% scared to death… or maybe it’s the other way around lol. Keep doing what you’re doing man. Wish me luck! 🤞
Let’s go Shane!! Excited for you! Tell us all how it goes the minute you step out a new human 🙌🙌🙌
How did it go? I'm considering doing it - thanks 👍
How did it go ???
Now that looks much better than the pre-gym video. I like it.
Love your positivity man, great video and most importantly great style!
Your hair always looks so good, I'm jealous. Remember to post a tutorial on how to use thinning shears to remove some of the density from the unit.
Thanks man. I really appreciate that. And will do! Maybe a video all about tailoring the style of the unit? With thinning shears, hairline, blending, etc?

Very informative video Mike… Thanks! I know guy who uses a hairband to hold his unit in place while he’s glueing the front. Then removes the band and finishes the back. Cheers
Thank you for making this video, it really helped me to decide to go for the hair system.
Your hairline is looking amazing! What's your secret to making it look so natural? Are you thinning it out? Adding imperfections to the baseline?
Hey thanks! I actually don’t do anything other than trim it. Ever notice the hairline is imperfectly v-looped where some areas are thinner/thicker and some hairs may not come to the edge of the base? I trim it so it’s imperfect but lines up with where the hairs have been placed. That’s it!
This man is handsome with and without the unit. Rock them both!
Hey this looks great. Can you re-post the link in the description? It doesn’t work anymore. Thanks.
great job my brother - made me think different about skin units how, long do they last you.
Thanks! And I usually switch them out every 3 months although I could get a little more out of them. I do the .03mm models.
01. very educational video.
02. hair system is too good
03.u r hairline is looking amazing & natural.
Good to see you back Michael - good video and useful tips. The result looks really good too.

Is it necessary to remove and clean every two weeks of the system is still fit and no sign of irritation?
What system do you have ? It looks natural on the hairline .. any tips ?
I just want to say that your hair looks great!!
Also wanted to ask you,
Where did you buy it, how much it cost and where do you get the glue and things to take care of it.
Thank you
This one I got from Lordhair! I’ve got discount links and codes in the video description too. I use Walker Ultra Hold and I get it on Amazon!
Is that a 100% poly skin unit? What thickness? Does it overhear your head? Where does the sweat go when working out?

Hey man! My pleasure to help. Wanna shoot me an email? It’s in the video description.
Just a question to understand your perspective, why not use tape? Isn’t it like much easier to maintain?
I don't mind tape, but it's easier for me to put the adhesive where I want it and MUCH cleaner on the hairline. Great question!
Do you not have to blow dry this glue ?
The one I have got has to be blow dried

-type of hair model
-type of exfoliant
-type of glue
-best clear type

I just purchased a new unit and I used your method of installing the unit and I have to say it came super perfect thank you for that information 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I know EXACTLY what you mean. And this dry fit method just seems to help, especially when you’ve got all that hair in the way. Glad to have some feedback on this and glad it worked out for you!
did you say you sprayed the unit with the adhesive remover spray? im new to this and trying to under stand how i clean my hair piece as well.
That’s exactly right! I spray it and let it sink in for about 5 minutes while I clean my scalp and shave. Makes it MUCH easier to remove with a cotton ball.
how do you take out the adhesive from the hair system to clean it before you re-install? do you have a video on that?
Yes! I can make a video on that for sure.
How much did you pay for the unit? Thanks!!!
How long can you Be in the water. This is my first instalment
Brilliant video mate im getting mine sorted mate
Is the unit single-use disposable? I saw on the Toupee hair description that it's good only 3-6 weeks and it is disposable, not worth of buying new units every month then, thanks in advance for replying
Where can I purchase a hair system? And what's the type you recommend? Thank you
I love you, Thank you for the confidence boost. 👍🏻👍🏻
Well thank you! Love all around 🙌
Thanks for the video! I wish I had watched this before having to toss my UTS unit.. What about if you apply a system that has lace or mono? You can't apply the adhesive to the unit itself then, can you? Also, how long do you use the UTS system for before it starts losing too much hair? I've used the Ghost Bond XL and when I sweat while working out, it seems to make the glue too watery and it gets in the hair fibers, making them clump up and then fall out as I'm trying to fix it..
Hey Michael, great looking hair! Can you recommend a few stylists in SLC that you like?
Hey thanks! And absolutely. The one I go to is Klipsz: square.site/book/B4TVTPWTDXG5S/klipsz-salt-lake-city-ut
How long does a single system last before having to be totally replaced? I’m trying to figure monthly or yearly costs.
Great stuff just found you and love your excitement 😀
OK got a question...
As I have seen: you love poly ,
I have had one in the past but find that you can see 2/2 mm of the poly e.g::: shine with the first few mm: do you think I have not cut the unit enough to the hair.
If that makes sense....
Thank you sir.
I'm from the 🇬🇧
Thanks for your time and support 🙏
Man you made this look chill and relaxing, very awesome… i will have my first unit in a month.. waiting on the order to come in. Have you ever tried hair skeen systems?? That’s what i went with for round one
Hi Michael, great video! Are you ever concerned about the glues toxicity or dangers? I know the Ultra Hold is really strong stuff!
Thanks
Great question. And I know Jake has looked into this but I personally don’t have much insight on any dangers.
Hi mate; just wanted to know about the glue you use; do you think that it’ll be good for someone that workout at the gym 6 times a week; like I have been using tape and the glue come out and mess with the hair; that is why I was wondering if the glue does that?
What if you sweat alot on your head ? will it be a problem for the glue ? mess up the hair ?
Thanks for the video I’m sure you’ve said it but what kind of glue did you use and where can I get it?
Walker Ultra Hold! I get mine on Amazon!
@@michaeljosephghd thanks man your way seems way easier than the tape I been using. I just got a system last month so I’m still trying to figure things out lol
@@Th3slimReaper Nice! 1 month in! I remember those days. Just remember it gets easier and smoother every time you install 🙌
Hi Michael, how long does your s22 last you? Do
You ever need to dye it? Thanks for your time:)
Apologies for the delay! They can last me about 3-4 months before I want to change it out. It could probably last longer but I tend to want a fresh system at that point.
Hey man thanks for all the information? I'm 44 and have been back and forth on a system and HT . For a first time hair system user would you recommend one that you trim the lace down to fit or buy a pre fitted one?
tips on applying a uncut system? the hair is long and i feel like its in the way. can't see what im doing. cant find a single video of somebody applying an uncut system
Great question! Hair clips help a LOT. I’ll do a video soon on applying an uncut system! That lions mane is hard to work with sometimes!
Thanks for the video brother. I'm thinking of getting one. But all these videos and styles are all the same. The hair is combed back. Would it look natural if I wanted a shaggy look? Like a skater type look? I'm a young guy.. Subbed.
Skater style would be awesome and easy to do. My buddy Jake Kent has a similar look and it’s very natural looking.
@@michaeljosephghd Thanks ill take a look!
Hey man! What's the size of the hand-held mirror you are using?
Please can you provide details on the system you're using? I want the exact same look. Hope you'll answer, and keep up with the videos!
Do you have to replace this hair system every month?
When you're as handsome as Michael, you don't need a system. For the rest if us? We NEED IT!
Bahahaha… that’s hilarious! I think we’re all handsome BUT more so with the system 😆
Had to subscribe. Loving the video info!
What if your not bald but want to apply a wig over natural hair would it stick ? 😮
Good instructions on cleaning. I feel better with tape though. I do have to wonder why you don't let the hair the back of your head to grow and meet the rest of your hair? It almost looks like you need a unit there too. Let that hair grow and your whole head would look great
How do you have a widows peak on this wig? It looks so much better that way.
Ya know, it kind of just looks like that with how the hair falls with this specific system. If you want a widows peak you could actually shape the system to do that by cutting the base a little!
Well I see comments from years ago. So i wonder if you'll reply. Like the earlier text I sent you, I'd like to know what you think of the unit I'm getting put on literally tomorrow Aug 7 2023. Mine has a scalloped front. What do you think of that.
I just came across your video and I’m window shopping for a hair system. Any suggestions for a trusted online store to get one? From where did you get yours?
Thanks man! And I usually get mine from Lordhair. I’ve got some discount links and codes in the video description for you too (helps us both out!).
They’ve been awesome to work with and the products and service is great.
I see you’re using adhesive exclusively on a poly unit. Is it a .03? Are you concerned about ripping it?
At first I was, but after 2 years of not being the most gentle with them, I’ve never torn it myself. One system I wore for too long and naturally it did rip on an edge (only about .5”) and even that wasn’t noticeable.
Hi Mike. A quick couple of questions please: How comfortable is the system on your head? Does it get irritating after a while? Question 2: What material system would you recommend? a system made from real hair? or others? Thanks. Jon
100% real hair is vital. They're comfortable unless you sweat a lot and your skin reacts to the adhesive. Then it gets itchy and sore. Swiss lace is best, but can be difficult to maintain. I find that poly units feel like having plastic on your head, don't allow your scalp to breathe and you can see the poly shining through the hair. You're basically forced to have a high hair density, which for most people will look very fake. So I would say go Swiss lace, or a swiss lace poly blend, with a lower density. Poly is also bad for any exposed hairlines - you can quite easily see this guys poly liner when he pulls his hair back. It's extremely obvious.
Great pointers and love the split-screen format!
Thank you! And thank you for a great product!
Hey Michael, love your videos, question for you, I’m considering starting to use hair systems for fear of side effects of hair loss drugs.
But I roll Jiu jitsu about 3x a week… is Jiu jitsu and hair systems something that could go together if I was to replace the system every couple weeks like you do?
Or is Jiu jitsu and hair systems something that just wouldn’t go together?
That’s a tough question. From what I (think) I know of BJJ is that you’re rolling around, getting super sweaty, and even using your head as part of the match. In my mind I’d think that may be a bit too much, but there’s only one real way to find out 😎
If you’re able to get one, try it out in a less intense match then work up, I’d recommend it. If it’s a fresh install you may be just fine, if it’s been on a couple weeks it’ll get slippery I’d imagine.
Would I be considered candidate for Hair System if I’m not bald? I have receding hair line that exposes most my forehead.
Absolutely. You may be able to use a frontal. It essentially replaces your hairline and blends right into your bio hair. Have you looked into that?
@@michaeljosephghd I scheduled a free consultation at local hair restoration center. I’ll mention to them the frontal hair piece. Hoping my results are as good as yours 🙏
I’m new to this and I came across this video because doing my research lol so this may sound really stupid but can you shower with it on ? Or do you cover it up and shower ?
Welcome! And yeah! Shower and swim and workout and live life! I wash it in the shower twice a week!
Thank you so much for uploading these videos. I'm going on January 5th for my hair consult to get my first ever hair system installed and I am very excited! I'm going to Europe in June and will be there for 3 months though so I am definitely looking ahead to how to clean and reattach the unit myself! Ironically my name is also Michael Joseph lol
How is it that the men units look way more natural than many of the female units I’ve seen. I know he’s on camera which is different from seeing someone in person but I SWEAR if he didn’t take off that unit, no way he could’ve convinced me that wasn’t his own hair. Im a female with some hair loss issues and I thinking about getting a unit. I don’t mean to get personal but Im wondering would this stay put during intimacy? And did I hear him say he goes snorkeling in the unit? If so, that’s amazing! So this doesn’t come off if you work out 5-6x a week and you sweat like heck?
Wow, your hair piece looks amazing. Did it instantly change your confidence or was you a little self conscious the first time you had it done? I'm considering it. Great video ✌️
