Ok, I have a question for the tape gals:
 
Do you place it right of the very edge of your lace or do you leave a few millimeters of lace in the front without lace?
I put mine right at the edge and I feel that it kind of makes the lace harder to blend to your scalp.
 
What do you ladies do?

When I used to do all tape apps I used Proflex no shine tape and I would place the tape on the very edge of the lace. Although it does blend well, it does not completely disappear like when you use adhesive. That is why I don't use tape on the very front of the hairline, just along the sides up to the temples. Wink

I've tried it both ways (all the way to the edge) to me this shows more.  The other way I've done it is  to put it about 1/8 of an inch behind the hairline at the top and use just a bit of glue at the edge.  It works better that way for me.

I use to place the lace at the very edge of the tape, I stopped after I found the tape to be collecting the color on my foundation makeup, so now I put the tape on the skin first then I place the lace a few centimeters in front of the tape so that I can use the safe grip adhesive for a more natural look.
 
I will have to put a pic of my unit in my avatar here so you can see.
