I do not like it at all!

Cause the fit is not as good as the no-stretch for me!
I wish I could cut it out and sew back for nice snug fit!

| I hear you on that. I like a snug fit and stretch lace is a no-no for me. Over time the stretch gets even more stretchy and I don't like it. I have a bald head so I don't need the extra room to accomodate any hair. I need 100% lace! |

Exactly the stretch does get more stretchy and I do not like this. |

Does the stretch panel make your LF feel too big? I ordered my first LF not too long ago and I requested a stretch panel. I hope I don't regret it.

| I just don't like it. It does not flatten your hair as good too! Just a pain. |

| I was thinking about getting a stretch unit. Now that I hear the feedback, I'll stay away from them... thanks for posting your experiences, Ladies. |

I think we used to call this distinctive stretch panel look the "Gorilla hump". I wonder if vendors can now replace the stretch panel with lace as a repair.... Bless should offer this, she'd make a fortune!

| i recommend stretch when trying a new vendor. IMO that leaves room for error because some vendors run small and others large. and if you dont like a hair line you can create a new one of you have stretch. |

| Well I have on with the stretch and it's a little too big. I doctor on it until I felt like it was a good fit. |

| Asia, what did you do to the stretch to make it right? |

| I think it all depends on your natural hair. I love stretch esp ear 2 ear. I tried all lace and it didn't fit right. My stretch fits flat against my head |

| I like the stretch. It leaves room for my hair growth. |

| i too like the stretch for the hair growth factor. if i ever go back to a short style on my natural hair, i would probrbly go without the stretch. |

| Mercedes87 it's like pull and tuck. I gather some of the stretch and pull it over or up to the seam and sew it down where the stretch seam begins. I realize the neater the better. |
