Hi I'm a 21 year old male who has suffered with male pattern baldness since the age of about 17. It has caused me great anxiety. Therefore last month I decided to buy my first hair system. However I am worried that the density of the system is too dense, thick and unnatural.

Also the colour is two shades darker than my natural colour. I'm a very dark mousy blonde but my system is like a medium brown..

I would really appreciate your opinions and advice on this!

Hi ya , Im based in NYC and I wouldnt know any one over where u live, however, on your next unit, try to give the supplier a previous photo of your hairline so they can come close to replicating it, try to have them go light density in the from then gradually go fuller as the unit goes back , if u have anymore questions feel free to hit me up

Hair systems for men are a whole different thing then for women. The base must be thin and the density less, because less is more, so to speak. There is a gal named Chris for Hair in Northern California who really does amazing work for men. She is a pro and very responsive to those with alopecia or medical hair loss. Take a look at her website. I think her last name is Hanson and first is Chris. She also does video conferencing and she is very particular. She has been around for many years and is not a fly by night. At the NAAF conference two years ago I met a man with a hair system and could not tell. That is when you know you have a really good unit. Good luck and hope this referral helps. 

Oh my, sorry to be so negative on this, but you were sold the wrong system. Your sides are so thin now that any system with a mesh base, or PU around is going to be too heavy to blend easily with your sides. Yes, the top heavy look is in but yours is way unbalanced.

The new this skin systems are fantastic for younger men. They are inexpensive (around $250.00) can be cut in easily, can be attached with hair gel, not glue and last pretty well. There are also full lace systems, and although I find they are not as natural as skin, they are more breathable. The air gets to the scalp. 

You do not need custom. The skin and lace systems can replicate the hairline quite well, and are cut down to match your balding area. You are a good looking young man. With the right system you would look fab, but this is not the one.
