can someone tell me what i'm supposed to do with these bangs/babyhairs?? i only have a problem with the babyhairs that will be in the center of my forhead cuz i will be wearing a part down the middle. the sides beginning at the temples on down are fine. it's just that hair in the front that's not doing it for me.

| i was thinking about cutting them but i didn't want to do too much of a blunt cut cuz me and scissors fell out in elementary school and we ain't got along since. i'm gonna see if i can use a light pomade and brush them up into the rest of the hair. |

are you can use the nair tips:
Nair My Babyhairs- put a lil Nair on my baby hairs on the middle/ends not close to the knots and/or cap construction cuz you don't want the hair to fall out, and only for a few seconds. It makes the baby hair real flimsy and fine just like my natural baby hair. the nair just makes the baby hair super fine to the point where it lays down by itself without gel, more like real babyhair. I practiced this on my old unit and it made the hair elastic because I left it on to long, that's you can't leave it on too long. Use only the original nair, none of the scented, improved stuff and leave it on only like two seconds and rinse.

If you are afraid of using Nair (as I am) you can also use mousse (and rollers if you want them wavy/curly).

| I believe that was Bless's idea. I just take a rat tail comb, run it under water, and comb them in with the rest of the hair. Works fine for me. |

maybe you should use Breh technique to thin out your babyhair, you can find it in the newbie section HTH |

I have had long babyhair like that on some of my units, I have done the following: -u can either comb it in with the rest of the hair or
-go to the BSS buy a razor that people use to shape their eyebrows (it cost about $1 / less) and cut the baby hairs but make sure that if u do cut them with the razor u dont make all of them the same length-I find that when all of the babyhair is too uniform it looks kind of crazy / unnatural, a slight variation in the length of the babyhairs will make it appear more natural (to me).

| I usually just comb mine back into the hair and pull down what I need to look more natural. |

Does anyone make short baby hair?
I somehow jack mine up. So I just leave them along. I purchased a used unit and the person had them cut just right. So I may copy that.

| on a custom u can specifically request short baby hair and tell them approximately how long u want it to be (1/2 inch, 1 inch long etc.) |

 wig is already getting on my nerves. i'm a dark skinned chick and this lace is too light. i tried to bleack my knots and nothing happened. i cut my lace and used the fray block now the cap and my hair is all white & crusty. i swear i wanna cry but i'm trying to be strong! i know u didn't ask for all that drama but i'm pissed !anywayz, i purchased this wig brand new in the "for sale" secton at BHM. it's Indian Remi light yaki from Rex. it's 20" 1b w/ bleached knots everywhere(NOT! ) the lace is brown but it looks kinda reddish to me. puts me in the mind of a #30. the hair is gorgeous and soft. it would be more pretty if it didn't have all this fray block crusted up all in it. sorry about the rant but this is my 1st wig and my 1st app and ain't nothing going right.

don't forget you can get the rits dye pen to change the color on the lace..
http://softexpressions.com/software/paint/FabMateChisel.php - http://softexpressions.com/software/paint/FabMateChisel.php i only rub a very little of the fray block in the middle of my fingers and rub it along the edges of the cut lace..
