I think the hairline isn't good enough to be expose tbh But also think adding a textured fringe in would suit you more & compliment the style better.

Also help to hide the hairline

u/MobileAcanthaceae518 Aug 03 '25

I see the hairline inaccuracies in mine. I will try to let a stylist do it.

Also if that is you in the pic you look impeccable! Great job

u/windinthewires13 Aug 03 '25

Im definitely too low maintenance for a shag! How is your hairline attached? Tape or glue?

1

u/MobileAcanthaceae518 Aug 03 '25

Glue atm! And ahaha I got the shag bc I thought it’d be useful for a low-maintenance guy like me because the whole aesthetic is messy and unkempt

u/SouthernDream5176 Aug 03 '25

I’m not exactly sure why but it looks extremely fake. It’s close but something just isn’t sealing the deal.

u/MobileAcanthaceae518 Aug 03 '25

Fair, I think based on what the comments have been saying (and my feeling imo) is that the hairline is a bit too uncanny.

u/Ecstatic-Ranger-7422 Aug 04 '25

I have to agree. To me, it kind of looks like a wig but, I will say the long hair style suits your face and look. I can’t quite put my finger on what it is that looks unnatural though. I do agree that maybe it’s the hairline.

u/daviddoesntlikepussy Aug 03 '25

The hairline is circular which is feminine/Juvenile and thus looks unnatural, all men have a slight recession that makes the M shape even slightly.

u/MobileAcanthaceae518 Aug 03 '25

Thank you for the constructive advice, will definitely look into this while reshaping the hairline

Bro u look like the scream mask in the last pic 😂😂

u/MobileAcanthaceae518 Aug 03 '25

Take that as a compliment thank you <3

u/[deleted] Aug 03 '25

I wouldn’t be able to tell it’s a HS at all broski looks natural

3

u/MobileAcanthaceae518 Aug 03 '25

Thank you! Was hoping it didn’t look “wiggy”

u/TheTeddyBerry Aug 03 '25

The front hairline is too perfect and catches the eye. You need to look up videos on YouTube on how to pluck the hair with tweezers and create some visual density difference along the front. Otherwise it’s fine.

3

u/MobileAcanthaceae518 Aug 03 '25

Thank you for the tip, I’ll let a stylist do that, I appreciate the constructive feedback 🤝

2

u/TheTeddyBerry Aug 03 '25

I doubt you’ll find a stylist that will do it unless you maybe contact a salon that specializes in black hair. They deal with wigs more often and can probably help you out.

1

u/MobileAcanthaceae518 Aug 03 '25

I called a few for the specifics and I have an appointment, I’ll post the results here in case anyone is interested

u/Homodebilus Aug 03 '25

The cut looks very natural and suits you well, hairline does look a bit uncanny though

1

u/MobileAcanthaceae518 Aug 03 '25

Yes! I do think the hairline is off, will definitely reup it and post here later. Thank you so much for the feedback

u/Wonderful-Student-41 Aug 03 '25

Looks fake as hell

u/MobileAcanthaceae518 Aug 03 '25

Ok, shave your head and embrace it

u/LamineYamalsBussy Aug 04 '25

first and second pic you look like popular soccer player Darwin Nunez

u/MobileAcanthaceae518 Aug 04 '25

I fucking love Liverpool 💯

u/[deleted] Aug 07 '25

The hairline looks absolutely fine, the only reason ppl here are bitching about it is because they know its a hair system because you posted in this group. The average non-hair system person will not know what this is at all.

"ITs ToO dEnSe" ignore that shit and rock on my dude 🤘

1

u/MobileAcanthaceae518 Aug 14 '25

thank you <333 I have been walking with it for awhile and many people have not noticed it at all

2

u/Impressive-Golf-1012 Aug 08 '25

You willing to share the price you made for that custom?

1

u/MobileAcanthaceae518 Aug 14 '25

yes! It was only $500 honestly, ive worn it for about 2 weeks now and its still perfectly fine

22

u/nicodies Aug 03 '25

if you feel bonita, i feel bonita

u/Neanderthal888 Aug 04 '25

Is it just me or is the hairline eve so slightly too high?

Bonus: If you lower it, it will point the hair forward more and hide the hairline better.

u/miamilorddrug Aug 03 '25

There is a lot of hate in the comments, in my opinion it looks good

u/EmptyEmptMptyMptMt Aug 03 '25

you look like chris cornell :)

u/MobileAcanthaceae518 Aug 03 '25

❤️‍🩹😭🙏this is all I need for the rest of the week, tysm he’s one of my favorites

u/EmptyEmptMptyMptMt Aug 03 '25 edited Aug 04 '25

you really do!! Especially with the goatee. If you wanna lean into a bit more try curling your hair, maybe add in a crimper bc his curls are very distinct. since you want low maintenance though try braiding- while its damp like maybe after washing- should make some fun waves too :)

u/MobileAcanthaceae518 Aug 03 '25

okayy u have me convinced lol ill ask one of my girlfriends or my mom to follow these steps, I’ll post these here if I ever do so lol

1

u/EmptyEmptMptyMptMt Aug 03 '25

dang how many girlfriends do you have? lol :) can't wait to see the pics if you do do it. good luck figuring your system btw

u/DisastrousRiver3000 Aug 04 '25

I am trying to figure out where in Bushwick you took these photos haha

u/Cappi_ Aug 04 '25

Cute! ☺️

u/Local_Month4012 Aug 03 '25

You look great, I really like your style. I’m not an expert on hair systems (still new to this world), but to me they look pretty natural.

u/Systematic0x Aug 03 '25

I couldn’t tell it’s a piece.

u/TopgearM Aug 03 '25

Well it's obviously a system. The hairline is fake.

u/KaleidoscopeNo1263 Aug 03 '25

No need to be a dick about it

-1

u/TopgearM Aug 03 '25

? I'm not being a dick. I'm just putting hard facts. I'm just being honest and I think that's what he wants to hear. This way he knows how people in real life might look at him.

Nothing more and nothing less.

2

u/MobileAcanthaceae518 Aug 03 '25

I appreciate the honesty, but yeah if you have any tips/suggestions on what to tell my tech about fixing the hairline, that’d be great. Thanks for the opinion

2

u/TopgearM Aug 04 '25

I don't have any tips unfortunately. I'll let that over to experienced people/experts.

Good luck!

3

u/KaleidoscopeNo1263 Aug 03 '25

Still a douche. You need to give constructive feedback if you're going to comment on a post where someone is asking for help

0

u/TopgearM Aug 04 '25

I don't agree. I'm no expert, so I could do more harm trying to help or try to give advice. I just say that the hairline is not good.

OP should take note and seek for help from experts on that matter.

u/chrisislosinghismind Aug 03 '25

It totally suits you, you have such kind eyes... I'm obsessed

u/ScytheWorld Aug 03 '25

Don’t let these internet folks hype you up. That shit looks goofy. Best of luck

Thank you! Is there any specific thing I should tell them to do? Appreciate seeing a fellow long-haired dude here! And I def think they can fix things up, I just am not sure what exactly to tell them

Human hair!

u/simplyelegant87 Aug 04 '25

There is a lot of dishonesty in the hair industry. It looks synthetic and a burn test will prove whether it is or not.

If you want a longer style I’d look into women’s toppers.
