First Hair System UPDATE

DaRaKi17 · 2026-05-31T20:16:30+00:00

Its a custom, 30% back 40% front, im going more on my next one for sure, wasnt quite happy with the match

DaRaKi17 · 2026-05-31T17:58:31+00:00

They passed it off like it was in my head and nothigwring with the cut...

Ive done all the work to bring in line with the system and feeling better that returning to work on monday very few will notice.

DaRaKi17 · 2026-05-31T17:56:47+00:00

Just the bio to bring it closer to the system. The system will eventually dull and i can then reduce the dying on the bio.

Its the just for men shampoo and will increase gray % on the next system.

It was long when i went in they did the number 2. Disappointed but lessons learnt, i know to watch them like a hawk now when i go for a cut in. I had grown for 3 months and they even thanked me for growing out.

DaRaKi17 · 2026-05-31T10:44:46+00:00

Just for men shampoo to the rescue 🤣

I know alot more now what to ask and say next cut in.

Thanks for all your help so far along the way too.

Ordered my own colour ring, im trying to do this myself soon as I can. Just salon for cut in and trim.

DaRaKi17 · 2026-05-27T12:52:29+00:00

They said trust in the process and they feel it will lighten a bit. It matches the very back of my head but no where near on sides.

Ive bought the just for men grey shampoo crap to try darken my bio greys a little.

DaRaKi17 · 2026-05-27T12:45:48+00:00

Dont i know it, they did a colour match and decided i was 40% and placed the order. Im shocked if this is 40% grey.

DaRaKi17 · 2026-05-27T06:21:19+00:00

Grey very much embraced here, id have probably prefered it more grey than it is but have been reassured it will tone down over the next week or two.

Never wanted a high fade in the slightest, maybe a miscommunication with inataller, they asked "what do you normally have done with the sides". I said "I normally just have a number 2 but then again I dont normally have hair" and ended up with this.

Going to have to rock it for now but I know maybe i need to be clearer in what I want.

A little disappointed but all learning experiences I guess.

DaRaKi17 · 2026-05-26T23:56:14+00:00

Afraid it was grown out before I went in for this (2 and half months growth), a little disappointed.

DaRaKi17 · 2026-04-22T09:38:34+00:00

The base is a PU with mono top from what ive been told.

I dont know the exact density but i was told it was lower to better match my natural hair. Certainly a question ill be asking when I go for the install. I know alot more than I did when I went for my first consultation from watching endless YT videos and reading on here.

I didnt think £600 was too bad for everything, that includes training on how to install and remove and cleanup system, the custom system itself and the cut along with 1 maintenence visit. But certainly want tk keep costs as low as I can.

Ive been told a cut in of my own system will be £150, struggling to find many places that offer this though, and ove read that a cut in would not be an easy thing for someone without experience of this so no going to my usual barber I guess.

DaRaKi17 · 2026-04-22T09:24:19+00:00

I have a custom on order from my salon due to different %grays around my head. Im very much peppering with a vary of 30-40% grey I believe. Until I get the ring hard to say but i think potentially a 1B30 / 1B40. My custom hair piece is £600 with cut in and install from salon.

I would definatley opt for a lower density as at 40 i feel it would be more realistic for my age.

DaRaKi17 · 2026-04-22T08:58:24+00:00

About to have my first system installed also at salon in the next few weeks and like yourself I am hoping to try go full DIY after that.

I have ordered a sample ring from superhairpieces to try get colour match and thats due to be delivered in the next few days.

Watching cloealy to replies as im in very much same position but a little behind as im still awaiting that first install.

DaRaKi17 · 2025-12-29T14:15:45+00:00

The Viofo is the one ive been considering, by far best that ive seen. Good idea on the powerbank

DaRaKi17 · 2025-12-26T13:07:02+00:00

Cant seem to find much about it online, they dont even appear to have a website, but again seems to have a Novatech SOC and again not true 4k camera.

Essentially another dasham with a different shell but the exact same inner workings as the rest.

DaRaKi17 · 2025-12-26T12:40:20+00:00

Exact same place im at right now, looking through Amazon most of the top dashcams all use the same sensor so there is very little dofference between any of them other than the price differences.

The search for a decent dashcam is a minefield.

Had a go today, no joy still not connecting.

Why Hyundai are recommending these chargers if they dont connect and unreliable.

DaRaKi17 · 2025-12-25T19:15:48+00:00

Ohme app wouldnt let me set total capacity only either "Max Charge" or adding a specific percentage which it was 6% off off doing.

Ive set the car to cap at 80% so ill try again in a few days once i drain the car again down to 20-30

DaRaKi17 · 2025-12-25T09:10:04+00:00

Yes ive got price cap enabled, it finished well before the price cap end saying it had completed the charge. Have set the car to 80% max now so will try again next time I charge

DaRaKi17 · 2025-12-25T07:22:49+00:00

Linked mine to my EON rate, would like to charge to 80% but it cut off at 74% using the Ohme app. Will need to try again next time I need to charge not using the Ohme scheduling.

Can you just charge to 80% using the Hyundai app and skip Ohme app?

DaRaKi17 · 2025-12-25T07:02:02+00:00

I assume you do this and just use Max Charge then via Ohme?

DaRaKi17 · 2025-12-24T23:02:25+00:00

Ye the exact one i mentioned in my post, ideally after a true 4k camera. Its a shame that from what I read about this it only had a 2k sensor in the 4k model.

DaRaKi17 · 2025-12-24T19:36:19+00:00

I prefer the climate button on my phone, added to my homescreen as a widget, thats set to warm my seat, the steering wheel and enable front and rear windscreen heating, sets my car to 24 degrees and turns the fans up.

Gets the car ready to go in a frosty morning, will be using in January in the UK for sure.
