I no longer use it since I didn't have enough hair left to see the shine icon_frown.gif

 

As for manageable hair, I read a recent thread about wetting it again after applying and drying the first time, then towel dry and/or blow dry.

 

When I did use it......as for the hair line, don't have it sopping wet with the stuff when applying there.....just slightly damp. It kind of eases you back from the hair line leaving it looking softer and more natural.

 

It takes a little getting use to but is the most effective, IMO, when you get the hang of it and it's far easier than the the others out there.

I also just tried dermmatch for the first time yesterday, my experience was that it left my hair looking very dry and dirty. ironically after washing it out later that night I believe some remained in my hair and actually looked good. i'm guessing I used too much the first time and will continue to experiment a little.

I have used Dermmatch for about 8 months now and find it works great. I find the trick is to use very little. I towel dry my hair after getting out of the shower. I then lightly dampen the applicator. I pat (rather than rub)the applicator into the thin areas. It probably takes about four minutes to apply. Also, I don't blowdry my hair but instead let it dry naturally and comb it out using a feather comb to create volume.

Hi Guys,

 

I have been using it for about 10 months now and have learned much about making it look more natural.

 

After application and your hair is completely dry, I sprinkle on a little Toppik, just a bit and the thinnest parts. Here is the final part, go get yourself some Jason Natural Cosmetics, The Pro-Vitamin Thin-to-Thick, Body Building Hair Spray with Biotin & Cysteine. It is Alcohol free and won't make the Dermmatch run on your head (compared to alcohol based products). Make sure your head dries again then comb out.

 

Hope this helps!
