⭐⭐⭐⭐ Another magnificent video & review from the one and only Mr. Rick.

[@thehighlevelman]

Thanks so much my friend!

[@chriswalker3663]

After watching this video I ordered the HD111. After watching one of Rick’s other video on how to make a template and cut my own system I gave it a shot with this HD111. Man oh man… not only did I nail the cut and install, but I’m fortunate enough that Rick’s Hair Co was so close to me that drove on over and Rick the man himself cut in the new unit. I wish I could put pictures in the comment because the results would speak for themselves. Best hair unit I have ever bought and best cut in/style I have ever had. I have only been wearing hair units for a year now but I have gotten a lot more figured out from your videos Rick! Keep on keeping on my man! Thanks for all your help with videos and advice!

[@1533ramsay]

I'd love to see your results. I guess I'll make the leap myself and order the one you ordered. I know I'd look so much better. Thx

Thanks Chris! It was a pleasure meeting you and so much fun cutting the unit. Hope all goes well! Appreciate the comment and good word! Peace bro!

How has the unit held up? I get that it’s “disposable” but of course buying fewer units per year is something we all want. Thanks

[@VetteGuy9]

Very useful info. The density comparisons was something I was definitely interested in. ✌️

[@ronaldcarnevale3424]

I haven't been too keen on your other hairpieces and color. But i do have to say this is the best yet.

[@TacticalAutoTraining]

Rick you are a natural in front of the camera. I wore the 8mm skin base and agree...at 64 I can't do more than 80% density. The 3mm leading edge curls up a bit too much and is too frail; for me the perfect mil is 6mm.

[@thehighlevelman]

Hey man! I hear ya. It’s all about finding what works for you! Each individual will be different for sure. Peace buddy!!!

[@DevilishAbstractions]

Thanks for the great comparison, Rick. The HD111 was very natural, but lasted only 3 months. So I went to the M101....I agree that it's a tank....I'm on the 5th month and it still looks great. Yes, it's higher density....every couple of weeks I take a few snips at it with thinning shears and it looks better and better. Also a couple of weeks ago I snipped the front poly with scalloped pinking shears ever so slightly and the hairline is completely undetectable. Previously, at a certain angle the light catches the hairline and I can see a slight line going across my forehead....now with the "imperfect" hairline, it's invisible.

[@thehighlevelman]

Good to know bro!

[@shermantx]

Rick, I was about to sent out a posse! This is one of your best videos yet… packed with information for just about anyone interested in Superhairpieces. Have a great weekend, Cheers Brad

I’m almost 68 years old with thick hair but just receding left and right hair lines. I used to have my hair dyed for 30 years of salt and pepper. My wife asked be to stop the dye and let it grow out. To our amazement it is a shiny healthy almost WHITE hair. Not really grey. QUESTION. is there a white unit I could purchase and just for the front hair line as I have plenty of hair elsewhere.?? I just found your channel , subscribed, and will be watching lots of your videos to get me started. Anxious to purchase a couple of units and try . Thanks much sir.

[@Prindad]

Such an outstanding video, from a long time HD111 user. My experience with durability is the same. Considering going to the M111, because at 65 it may be more age appropriate for me. I learned a lot from this video. Perhaps even the HD111XT next year; if I could get 2 months out of it, like the HD111 (it can go longer), it would be very affordable. Dave

[@thehighlevelman]

Good to hear from you Dave. With the M111 Know that it is not very dense - at all- but I liked it

[@googlestinx]

You are a real real man. Not many left in this world! As a female unit wearer for 20 years, you got all our secrets now! Male units are getting hot in England, the stigma is going and "unit attitude" is changing, for the better. One question , I don't use poly, I used swiss lace. The cleanup is tricky but it has great longevity, and the lace doesn't reflect light. What is the reason you don't promote lace units? 🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸

[@thehighlevelman]

Thanks for the response. I used lace at first but didn’t like the cleanup. Skin just works better for me so,it’s where I have all the experience. Peace. Good will!

[@thehighlevelman]

Greetings! Thanks you! The reason I don’t promote lace units is because that is not where my experience is. I have one video where I talk about my experience with lace, which was positive, but I’ve chosen skin for myself. So I talk about my personal experiences and it’s all about the skin for me LOL. PEACE MY DEAR!

[@googlestinx]

​@@thehighlevelmanhugs from jolly old England Sir! Thank you most kindly for your responses.

[@TacticalAutoTraining]

Goodglestinx...I have been wearing hair since 1984! Yep, first system from the late great Sy Sperling. I wore lace for year (decades). Skin is more undetectable, a lot easier to clean up, and does not "shine" or reflect - at all. Also, I don't even tape nor use ghost bond. I use spiking gel "Got2b"...which holds for a week, as I like weekly scalp clean. Longer hair could be in issue in high temp/humidity...where the gel could melt and run down your scalp a bit...for those seasons I do use ghost bond and wear the baby until it is so ready is comes off easy, and clean up with 99% Isopropyl alcohol. Once you go skin you won't go back...but if you use clips...that's a different kettle of fish.

[@gregweigel8115]

Couple questions for you. Do you have synthetic Gray or human gray in your piece? I love the look of synthetic gray Hair, but will frizz out after 3 weeks. I'm a long-term wear and no. That you need to be careful with synthetic Gray hair. I've done all I do to try to keep it from freezing. But have rarely gotten more than 3 weeks out of it.

[@thehighlevelman]

So, if you’ve watched my content you will know I choose synthetic grey. My experience with natural grey has been the opposite for me. The natural grey was frizzy from the get go. I know, it’s weird we have had different experiences. I blow my hair dry and the natural grey just was all over the place frizzy. Maybe I need to try it again. I always use a leave in conditioner and dry on a low,heat setting - gently- and slowly. I wash it every morning and condition with Aveda botanicals product. It’s pricy but worth it. I understand totally, only three weeks of it being good is certainly not enough! Maybe the product I use makes a difference. Thanks for the question….. have a good one.

[@kevinking7167]

Amazing man, so im getting ready soon to get a system but trying to decode between a lace or skin system. Im here in houston and im thinking of going with Apollo hair. Not sure of anyone else really here. But with the texas heat is a skin system good. I keep hearing the skin systems dont breathe well? But i mainly want durability but what looks the best and i know those 2 dont neccesarily go hand and hand. any advice would be greatly appreciated sir Thank you God bless K

[@thehighlevelman]

@@kevinking7167 Hey buddy! So…. Lace vs skin??? You probably know that I wear only skin. I’ve done the lace before (There is a video of that experience.) but just have more luck with skin as far as it vanishing in the front hairline. The breathability question. I suppose it is true that it does not breath well, however, in the heat here for me the only thing that holds up through the humidity and I can swim and ride with the top down with no issues is a skin unit. I get my things from Superhairpieces . I order them and the delivery is fast. I wear HD111 unit. It is the best of both worlds. It is a bit on the fragile side because the skin is only 3 mls but it last me easily three to four months. You should check them out before you jump. They will schedule a free consult with you to answer questions. Might be a good idea. If you do use the code. RICK 10. Get a discount for ya. Whatever you choose you can reach out any time brother.

I really appreciate it so are you able to sweat in the skin system just as much as if you were to be wearing a lace System these are the questions I keep getting thrown at me are the answers I should say when I’m asking these particular places that do the Hair systems. and if you have a video that explains all this if you can just send me the link to it so you don’t have to reply thank you again.

Rick, AMAZING video, as always!!! Thank you so much for going through the different systems. I've not tried Superhairpieces yet, I've been a long time Lordhair and Lavivid customer, but I'd like to know how the hair quality is. I have a big problem with the hair turning to straw in a matter of a couple weeks with the systems I have now. I don't use heat, or sprays or anything on them. Have you experienced any sever drying out of the hair from SHP?

[@thehighlevelman]

Hey man, good question. So, I do not have them go to straw like that. I have a friend who used another company and had the same problem. With Superhairpieces it stays in good shape for weeks. I also use AVEDA botanical products on them and it really helps.

[@markie74656]

[@Superman-xr1oh]

Hey Rick, I know you mentioned the density being 95%. Do you think that's a little too much? Do you thin it out further when you get the system?

[@thehighlevelman]

So, it depends. With them being hand made they are all just a bit different. If it’s super thick I get to texture the cut a lot and that gives a different look. I love the density hd111 has though. Thanks for asking. Peace!

[@stevesimpson4881]

Looks amazing.

[@thehighlevelman]

Thanks so much!!!!

[@KenHowardLCSWGayTherapyLA]

I'd love to see someone REALLY put Lavivid, Lordhair, Superhairpieces, Hairpiecewarehouse, Hairskeen, etc. Especially those first three. Really dive in and compare, which would be expensive for someone to review because they would have to probably pay for one of each of them. (I've had one Hairskeen, one Lavivid, and one Superhairpieces, and I've liked all of them, with Hairskeen possibly the "softest" hair quality, but all good, really. 80 percent density, A shape hairline, 30-40 percent gray (I've done both), and a couple with longer (8") length variable instead of the default 6"). The issue of color is really key; I have a Lavivid color ring and a Superhairpieces color ring, and they are really important -- roughly $50 each. Curious about stock systems but I've always done custom. I've had full French lace and French lace with a poly perimeter, and I think full French lace had the better front hairline. I haven't had any polyurethane because I run hot and I'm scared of it feeling hot, but maybe it doesn't. Lace is super comfortable, though; much more than I thought before I had that first (Hairskeen) system. There are SO many variables and choices. Here on KZbin is awesome for teaching all kinds of tips, because, granted salons are EXPENSIVE AF! Rick is awesome, as is Jake Kent, as is the British dude. But I love them!

[@briansthomas]

you said you took this out of the box and put it on? did u cut it prior ie) style it?

[@thehighlevelman]

Sorry buddy, I took it out of the box and cut the base then cut the style. That was a bit misleading huh!🤔. Thanks for asking!

[@briansthomas]

@@thehighlevelman thx so much for your reply! So we have very similar hair. There seems to be some confusion regards what you order for yourself. Super Hair told me you order med brown with 60% gray but i noticed after watching all your videos that you say that you buy 40% grey. Maybe you can fill your fans in!!!

[@thehighlevelman]

@@briansthomas hey buddy! Yeah, the truth is…..both are correct. I have had different combinations. All the way from 40% grey to 60%. A little all over the place. The percentage that is best for me is 40%. I’ve done more just because I get bored and can make it work. My best is dk brown 40%. Blends with my bio hair perfectly. Thanks man

How many times do you wash your hair in a week? Do you use leave in conditioner every day?

Hi rick what is the max longevity for Hd111

[@thehighlevelman]

I have worn an hd111 for three months

[@1533ramsay]

I love watching your videos. You blew me away last year when I saw you for the 1st, and you were changing your piece out. You look so complete and younger looking with the hair. I might figure out to have a phone consult with you sometime. Could you do a graph for the 4 systems with features of each one and put it on the screen. I can't afford a new system every time I change my hair. I'm very hot natured and don't want to feel it on my head. So breathable, 80% thickness and invisible front hair line os what I need. I love your style from your hair to the thumb ring. I just my thumb ring back on because of you. I got lots of criticism when I wore it last year. So I took it off. But I got a lot of criticism when I grew my beard out, and I survived so I can survive a thumb ring. Lol . I'd live to make videos too.

[@thehighlevelman]

Hey buddy!!! Thanks for you kind comments. I thought I responded to ya already but can’t find it so I’d rather donor twice than not at all. 😝So…..I believe I have a graph for the different systems. I will look! After wearing them all, I still love the hd111 , BUT, there are things I love about them all. I’m wearing the “tank” m101. Right now and it actually looks great and feels ok too. So, lots of ways to make me happy. Gotta tell ya, I laughed out loud at the “thumb ring” comment. I suppose that in caring about people I don’t really care if they approve of all I do. Just be you, boo! My life goes from one extreme to another and that’s the way I like it. Hahaha! I never cared much for the “middle” of anything. If you’re gonna do it make sure people notice. Ha.

[@btomas225]

Personally, at age 73 and having lost most of my hair by age 18, I have more than 50 years of experience as a "wearer," as we like to say. I can tell everyone here that two things have transformed this industry: the internet and instructional and informational videos, as well as the manufacture of the hair systems themselves, which have improved tenfold. I went from heavy, wiggy-looking "helmet hair" weaves made from hair wefts in the 70s-some truly bad-looking stuff-to now, whereby you can indeed have undetectable hair, as Rick demonstrates. However, I think Rick is a barber by profession. More on this later... Unfortunately, a few things have not changed in this industry. I am not speaking to SuperHairPieces as I have never ordered from them (yet). These are general comments based on my experience throughout the years: 1) Ill-fitting templates based on the 'three-finger' method of locating your hairline. If a stylist is using his or her three fingers to locate your hairline, stop them immediately! Your scalp begins where there's no wrinkling when you purposely wrinkle your forehead. Scalp skin does not wrinkle. That's the most accurate method of locating where your scalp begins at your forehead. Likewise, choosing an inappropriate frontal shape, whether too round, too straight, etc., can make a perfect product look really bad. Choose the frontal shape that fits your own taste, be it A, AA, etc. Don't leave this decision to the hairdresser. However, you should be aware that this choice is wholly dependent on how much bio-hair you still have on the sides. Again, use good taste in choosing this and discuss it with the hairstylist. If they're experienced and good at what they do, they'll convey to you the pros and cons of choosing the shape you want. 2) Bad, inexperienced, untrained hairstylists lacking any taste can ruin any product in a few milliseconds at cut-in. I had a stylist (about 20 years ago in Chicago at a major hair replacement center) completely ignore what I directed her to do, which was to style my hair with a left part and hair forward over my forehead. But as I sat in the chair (protesting every couple of minutes), she went about pulling my hair back, completely ignoring my instructions. I waited 3 months for the system to come in, and she ruined it in 20 minutes. I never went back to them after that. 4) Again, an inexperienced hairstylist or barber can cut your system, leaving "hard lines," especially at the rear of your head. It's difficult to describe, but a "hard line" is a line of system hair that's cut in a straight line horizontally across the back of your head, and there's no blending with your bio-hair. The line delineated between your system hair and your bio-hair is 'in your face' visible. It's very common to see this when you bring a system to a local hair salon to be cut-in. 3) Bad color/mismatch/monotone hair lacking variation can make a system look wiggy. Most of us have variations of color throughout our hair, e.g., lighter and darker hairs and, of course, maybe some gray. Many systems are delivered monotone. I've ordered systems from an internet supplier that came to me two whole shades lighter than what I ordered, even though I had their color ring and specified variations in color. I also had a system arrive whose color literally floated away and off the system on the first wash and down the drain. What makes Rick's hair so natural-looking isn't solely the hairline; it's also the color variation. Note the grays have a variation of shades as do the dark brown. Most hair companies have a paper "map" (you can print) of a partitioned head where you can specify by section (top, sides, back, front) the percentages of colors or gray or both. Ask for it and use it when ordering a custom system. I mentioned above that Rick is a Barber. There's a definite advantage to being able to cut and style your own hair. I have learned to cut my own hair and have done so for many years now. There are many how-to videos on KZbin that describe the basics, including texturizing, how to scissor cut, razor cut, use texturing shears, point-cutting etc. It's not as hard as one may think, and you get better over time. Invest in a couple of mannequin heads on Amazon and practice on that. Good luck and thanks to Rick for this channel!

The three pieces i bought , hd 111 and the m111 hair line did not look anything close to this. A straight line with no graduation.

[@thehighlevelman]

So much of how the hairline on the system looks depends on several variables. I have a video coming out soon that’s going to explain how that front hairline cutting makes such a difference. It can go all the way across to your temples and can curve back or it can just be kind of an oval Down on your forehead, and that will create a little bit more of a receding look on each side rather than just straight across, this is probably not gonna make a lot of sense but it’s just difficult to put into words. I need to get that video out. Sorry you had a problem.
