How to Cut Your Hair System Base to the Right Size | LaVivid Hair 

Good point. We will let Jake know about this. :) Thank you.

@@LaVividHairSystem which type of system shows in the video?

@@arisvalenzuela6194 Hi, this is our Crius model. :)

Hi Mark, thank you for pointing this out. This is very important to get the base cut correctly. So when we use this hard plastic shell to make a template and then cut the base, if we make sure that when we copy from the old hair system and when we cut the base for the new hair system, we place the hair system base up on a mannequin head for BOTH hair units, we will get the base-cut correctly, right? Instead of cutting it in a mirror image. Am I correct? :)

@@LaVividHairSystem I think I understand what you're saying.. but please confirm if I'm right or not. Are you saying that to copy a current hair system's shape, if you turn that system upside down (lace facing up) on a mannequin head then put the plastic on top of that system and trace out the shape, then the plastic won't have to be turned inside out when using it to trace out the shape on a new system, then you're correct. You won't get a mirror image from that. However, if someone was using the hard plastic to trace the shape directly from their scalp, then they would have to turn the cut plastic inside out in order to avoid a mirror image cut on a new system.

Thank you! :)

You are very welcome! Thank you!

Yes. :)

Thank you so much for letting us know!

How did it go? any tips brother?

You still haven't answered this question from 3 months ago

Yes if you do your own template cuts/apply it then go to salon and get a cut. it is MUCH cheaper than having them do it all. Cuts usually range from $15 and up where I am.

You can go to a salon and let someone professional helps you. We also offer pre-style service which makes it ready to wear.

Thank you so much! We do offer the pre-cut service for our customers. So you can just apply the hair system once you receive it!

@@LaVividHairSystem Thanks, however I want to know where Jake got that plastic template. I want to do it myself.

Thank you so much for the reply! You can go to Jake's channel and ask him: ru-vid.com/show-UCwwi1KV00ZDAwxGGuy7HPgg Thank you so much!

@@andreslo5282 celotape and cling film mate I cut & fit and offer a home service bro. Get in touch

Jake....those aren't Bobby pins. Lol. They are pushing pins. Bobby pins are those 3 inch metal things that women use. Lol

Yes, you can cut it by yourself. Also, we do offer pre-cut service for our customers.

Yes, this plastic clear thing comes with each order. :)

Thank you for the valuable advice. What you describe is an ideal system for sure. However, there is technique issues to use .03 poly in the front because the poly that connects to the lace has to be a bit thick, so the base can be strong but it is possible to use thick poly in the connection area and decrease the poly thickness gradually to 0.03 to the very front. Also injection cannot be performed on a 0.03mm poly. Vloop is the only option for a .03mm poly. :)

@@LaVividHairSystem ahhh gradually .03 to front brilliant! With virgin remy hair and I don't mind french middle, or if we can do silk top middle! Is the custom time still around 4 to 6 months right now?

@@joshgates2671 Thank you for the response. Right now we are not able to make a silk top base at all. Yes, the custom time is still that long. :)

@@LaVividHairSystem mind blowing!! Any date on when your stock for when the thin poly all around with lace middle will come? So I can buy 2 soon as they come out. Hope we got the average 7 by 9 sizes coming this time ☺

@@joshgates2671 It is hard to provide a date to be honest. Could be months. However, we will make a post when it is available again. :) Stay tuned.

Yes, it is fine. In order to get the base right, this is the only way to keep the unit not moving.

yes, it is. We have Jake's permission posting his video on our channel. This is also a promotion for Jake's channel too.

If so, please bring your hair system to the hair salon and ask for help. Thank you!

There isn't any hair salons near me that work with hair units so I ended up cutting the sides down a bit until I could get a better fit.

@@blahmehpfft Thank you so mcuh for letting us know. Please keep watching more instruction videos and you may learn how to cut it well. Thank you!

Several ways to make a template. You can use the hard plastic shell that it came with. Shave top of your head and get your template. Place hard shell on top. Take sharpie and draw a perimeter around your head where the skin meets the bio hair. Create your own front hairline and BOOM you're done. Another way is to use saran wrap, place on top of head, make a perimeter with sharpie, then apply several layers of heavy duty clear tape on top of saran wrap while still on your head. After that remove template and cut the path of the sharpie line.

@@TripletDadLife awesome thank you

Buy one. Easy fix.

@@Poliwhirltrainer35for real. Some people...

I agree. Why not use a white pencil and go round the plastic template with it then cut it with the blade. No need for the drawing pins and the system needs to stretched slightly when you run the blade along to cut it easier. He’s over complicating throngs here

Hi, thank you so much for your message. This is a very good point. Actually Jake didn't show in the video how he copied his template from his old hair system. However, if you make sure that when you copy the template and when you cut the new hair system, you turn the hair system base up and put it on a mannequin head for BOTH systems (the old one and the new one), you will get the base cut correctly, am I right?
