Hair
Piece Pattern
Mans
Hair Piece: Using a Sharpie
permanent marker, draw pattern lines on the
tape template
while it is still on your head. Though requirements
vary from person to person, some rules of thumb
apply to most.
Front hair line should usually be established by placing 3 or 4
of your fingers(depending of your age) about the brow line. Lines
are drawn from that point to form a pattern, which covers the bald
area. Deeper recessions look most natural.
Womens
Hair Piece: Side
measurement is done like men's above. However,
front to back is different. Because women typically
thin in front but don't recede like men do,
it is wise to use the natural bang and add
hair behind it. (Some men may choose to do
this technique also). Start your measurement
about 1 inch behind natural front hair line,
going over the top to back as far as it needs
to cover the thin area.

After
the entire outer perimeter of the pattern is drawn,
the desired style should be indicated.
If a part is desired, draw a line from a pivot point at back crown
to the front hair line. Placement of the pivot point should correspond
to what can be seen of your original growth.

Indicate
the probable growth pattern on the tape template,
the date the tape template is made, as well as
other pertinent information concerning your hair
piece.
After you have finished marking the tape template, add one more
layer of tape (now 4) to cover and seal in the markings. Since
the average life of a hair system is 12 to 18 months, good record
keeping is advisable to keep the hair piece current. Remove the
tape template from your head and trim the excess plastic wrap off.
