Sometimes I cant really see it in the mirror. But in the car mirror when the sunlight is shining down on me i can clearly see it . i see a line of lace around.
The lace is french and its light brown HOWEVEr i did dye it with a fabric pen which is brown.
I use blueliner tape. Idk if that makes it more noticable or not.
I went in the bathroom at work and went close to the mirror and lifted up my hair and i can see it.
I know someone on here said they checked their lace in the mirror in the sunlight and they said they didnt see any lace. how is that possible? hm.
I did cut it back but not too far up the hairline. Only 3 cells which someone recommended.

I am also having that problem, but my lace is cut back to the hairline. I am thinking it may be the adhesive or I may have color my lace too dark on the edge of the lace. I use foundation to cover it up. Any suggestions are appreciated Sorry not trying to jack the thread. |

| french lace is monstrous to hide. Try the steri strips or breh's tape method.... |

| I use EasyTab to hide French Lace. Griff, you're right that stuff is like trying to hide a chain link fence. |

 You're right. I only have 1 french lace unit because even when the lace color is right it's still a lot harder for me to hide than the swiss lace.------------- 2Cor 12:8-9 Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. But He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness". |

I have black hair and one day I saw a piece of my lace right at the top of my forehead and on my sides. I took a black marker and colored the lace that worked like a charm because it looked like part of my baby hairs. |
