Hair System Template Instructions
-
Cling-Film like (Saran Wrap or any similar plastic wrap)
-
Regular Clear Tape (Scotch clear tape).
-
Permanent Marker like Sharpie Fine Point
-
Pair of Sharp Scissors.
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.
After the entire outer perimeter of the pattern is drawn, the desired style
should be indicated.
If you would like a part, draw a line of the part that you want to the front
hair line. Placement of the pivot point should correspond to what can be seen
of your original growth

| Tear off a piece of 12” wide clear plastic wrap that is long
enough to stretch all the way around your head and tie it in a knot
under your chin. Spray a little water on your scalp first, so that the
plastic wrap fits very tightly. After pressing the wrap tightly to your
head, use strips of clear household clear scotch tape (not wide packing/shipping
tape) Apply 3 layers of tape over the plastic wrap to keep the form
in place and contour the head shape. Beginning at your forehead, place
strips of the clear scotch tape over the plastic wrap at the side edges
of your bald area and work your way inward with more tape strips.
’IMPORTANT’ as a bench mark, place 4 fingers above the
eyebrows where you will create the hairline.
NEVER as low as your frown lines! |
|
| Cut the saran wrap and place on top of the head.
Notice the back is positioned into the healthy hair. Once you have
a complete layer of tape running front-to-back, place another layer
of tape over the first layer, going from side-to-side. Apply three layers
of tape – two layers front-to-back and one side-to-side. The tape
will lock the plastic wrap into a permanent, transparent mold (template)
of your scalp.
Place a finger on top of the cellophane in the middle of the forehead.
Start twisting the middle ends which have been gathered behind the ears,
this will pull the back and front tight to the head.
Keep twisting until the handles created are tight. |

1. The areas of baldness determine these outer perimeters.
2. After you have taped the boundaries, cover the inner portion of the
plastic wrap with overlapping piece of tape.
3. Apply 3 layers of tape. Make sure the length of clear tape is placed
on top of the saran wrap (cellophane) in the healthy hair at the back,
and finishes just above the eyebrows. It is a good idea to place the
clear tape at the front of the cellophane and onto the skin of the scalp,
this helps hold your position and will be useful for you while attaching
the tapes during the whole procedure.
4. The tape will lock the plastic wrap into a permanent transparent
tape template. |

Now that you have cut you template, place arrows in the direction
that you hair grows and if you want a part draw it on the template in
your desired position. |

areas of your head then please cut a sample of your hair and attach it
to a piece of paper and let us know |

1. Get some clear saran wrap cut approximately 18-inch square so that it
covers the top portion of the used hair system
2. After pressing the wrap close to the hair system, use clear scotch tape
to contour the hair system shape.
3. Beginning at the forehead area of the hair system, place clear scotch tape
around the perimeters of the hair system.
4. Put approximately 3 layers of scotch tape over the saran wrap then trace
a outline to form a pattern, which covers the hair system area.
5. After the entire outside perimeter of the pattern is drawn, the desired
style should be indicated.
If you would like a part, 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.
