- Jason is an incredibly cool cat and we had the pleasure of sitting down and chatting about what has kept him in the hair system game for 5-6 years, how he manages hair systems being in a more isolated part of australia, and his advice for making hair systems last an extra 6 months!

Symptoms
In men, hair often begins to recede from the forehead.
Male-pattern baldness
Women tend to lose hair along the part.
Female-pattern baldness
Patchy hair loss (alopecia areata) is sometimes preceded by itchy or painful scalp.
Patchy hair loss (alopecia areata)
Repeated stress on the hair can cause a type of hair loss called traction alopecia.
Traction alopecia
t's becoming increasingly common for menopausal women to experience frontal fibrosing alopecia, in which the hairline moves back.
Frontal fibrosing alopecia
Hair loss can appear in many different ways, depending on what's causing it. It can come on suddenly or gradually and affect just your scalp or your whole body.
Signs and symptoms of hair loss may include:
Gradual thinning on top of head. This is the most common type of hair loss, affecting people as they age. In men, hair often begins to recede at the hairline on the forehead. Women typically have a broadening of the part in their hair. An increasingly common hair loss pattern in older women is a receding hairline (frontal fibrosing alopecia).
Circular or patchy bald spots. Some people lose hair in circular or patchy bald spots on the scalp, beard or eyebrows. Your skin may become itchy or painful before the hair falls out.
Sudden loosening of hair. A physical or emotional shock can cause hair to loosen. Handfuls of hair may come out when combing or washing your hair or even after gentle tugging. This type of hair loss usually causes overall hair thinning but is temporary.
Full-body hair loss. Some conditions and medical treatments, such as chemotherapy for cancer, can result in the loss of hair all over your body. The hair usually grows back.
Patches of scaling that spread over the scalp. This is a sign of ringworm. It may be accompanied by broken hair, redness, swelling and, at times, oozing.
When to see a doctor
See your doctor if you are distressed by persistent hair loss in you or your child and want to pursue treatment. For women who are experiencing a receding hairline (frontal fibrosing alopecia), talk with your doctor about early treatment to avoid significant permanent baldness.
Also talk to your doctor if you notice sudden or patchy hair loss or more than usual hair loss when combing or washing your or your child's hair. Sudden hair loss can signal an underlying medical condition that requires treatment.
People typically lose 50 to 100 hairs a day. This usually isn't noticeable because new hair is growing in at the same time. Hair loss occurs when new hair doesn't replace the hair that has fallen out. - Навчання та стиль
If u ask me, This is masculinity! Being confident enough to openly discuss something like This. I respect it.
Jake - this system/hairstyle is looking really good on you.
Where Jason mentioned he was at the point of getting a hair system and how challenging it was is pretty much where I am rn. I want to make a change but there seems to be a huge barrier to entry. I'm going to put in the work but atm this all feels very overwhelming.
it is. i hope to serve you and others as i grow my hair system business in the future. but know others have walked this path before you. thats why i created this channel
U give me hope when il be bald in a few years man !! Thx for the great content .
This conversation was amazing!
This interview was pretty good, but marred by the fact that he wore a beanie hat the entire time!
Absolutely great interview, out of curiosity jake - how much would it be to buy all the correct equipment- system, bonds, tools etc… a hair system has been on my mind for a long time. Been watching your stuff from the early days, but I feel ready now to take that leap !
System 100-800 depending on what kind of system it is. Lasting between 1-6months again depending on the system how you maintain it etc.
Cut in: depending on location i personally pay 180$ for the cut in and installation (you do that once per system)
Tools: brushes, tangle teaser 20-40bucks (last forever) glue or tapes like 50 bucks a year maybe less. Adhesive remover also like 50 bucks a year. Shampo condioner 20-40 bucks a year. Leave in conditioner (importand) like 50 a year.
So roughly 200 a year for equipment
50 for one time only purchases
Cut ins (you can learn to do them yourself if you must) 200 depending how many systems u use per year lets say 4 (800) the system itself 200x4 800. Total=1600 a year + 200 for the equip =1800 a year. Which means you pay 150 bucks every month. Im sure you can cut corners and get below 100$ a month so yeah if you know what youre doing it shouldnt be that expensive because if you dont have 100$ a month to spend freely you probably should focus on your career first in life.
@@npill2403 good insight
Hey Ray! I'm bored right now so here's a shit ton of advice lol Some of this may seem daunting to a newbie, but it's not that serious. I just want to set you up for success.
n pill's breakdown is accurate. I'm personally not doing it as cheap as possible, for the benefit of convenience. I'm on track for a yearly total of $2000 for the systems and cut ins ($250 each, replacing every 3 months) but I could bring that down a ton. Everything else is pretty cheap and lasts forever. I'm only 8 months in so I'm relying on my stylist a lot. 3 months is the absolute max for me because the color fade. This video helped me discover that back-2-natural product. I only get "hair stares" when the color goes. Can't wait to try it.
Here's a "Believable Hair System" checklist for you.
- Find and maintain the right color (order a color wheel from the company you are ordering from and test under sunlight before purchasing the unit. Or get a professional stylist to find your color. And now we know about the back 2 natural monthly conditioner)
- Nail the hairline shape/placement (even if the hair covers it) (Don't let your stylist cut into the hairline. That built-in diffusion is so critical. The hairline you order is what you have to go with)
- Go for natural density (usually a light density) (I wear a 90% density thin skin poly unit in the southern Texas humid climate)
- Keep the hair healthy (I'm still figuring this one out, but leave-in conditioner every day for sure)
- Find a style that fits your face shape and blends well with your bio hair (don't be afraid to try a "fashionable" hairstyle), also get regular haircuts for your bio hair to keep the blend on point. (For me, that's $25 every 3-4 weeks)
- Master the reinstall and find the right bond for your skin chemistry. (The full coverage adhesive method gives you a natural scalp look)
If you can do all that, you're going to have a fantastic system! It takes time and effort to hone-in on that genuinely natural look we all want. In my honest opinion, most guys never put in that effort and end up with a bad system or give up... I'm 8 months in, still experimenting and learning. It's not so serious though. I'm enjoying it.
On the mental side:
1. Understand that your hair is a small part of your value. What you want is to be a better man. You want confidence in yourself. You want better relationships. Level up everything. Not just your hair.
2. Accept that you are wearing a wig. People are turned off by shame, not hair systems. When you reach the place where you give zero fucks about people discovering your system, you'll be liberated. (Btw, 90% of people can't tell or honestly don't give a fuck even if they can. My first system was my worst one and my family couldn't even tell. They just thought I colored my hair)
3. Stay organized. Examples: Schedule your next appointment when you leave the stylist. Have a morning / nighttime self-care routine where you dedicate some time to the hair. Stay consistent with reinstalls. Keep on top of replenishing products.
Since getting my system, I've made tons of friends, have been hit on a handful of times, dated a beautiful girl, took an acting class for fun, leveled up my fashion-sense. It's a grind at times, no doubt. But overall, it's been amazing. I'd do it again in a heartbeat.
Good luck Ray!
@jeff-li2ck thank you. I'm a whole other Ray but all the advice still applies. I appreciate and I screenshot the words.
My system is dryed out maybe I just got a cheap unit.
