Default XBacks - about golden head, crossing, shine, colour intensity

I heard from a LFS that if you shine white light on a xback for a period of time, It will eventually turn white, giving the false impression that it has crossed. In other words, to have a 6-7 inches xback crossing is not possible. The LFS claimed that in such suituation, the white color will eventually go off. But I believe DFI does have a some golden head xback, showing good crossing around 6-7 inches, selling for 3k?

erm..... I personally disagree......
It is possible for some..... but not all XB.....
Golden head XB does not mean 6lvl crossing....

Now we are finally on the same page! Quite surprise most of you don't know about it.

Yah, look at that, a gold patch on the head, not just some thin lines, and also, a shiny back, crossed don't you think?

The LFS is trying to tell me that this is not real and like some bros here, no idea what a golden head is... And my question is, " eh uncle, got golden head xback boh? cross six level one, about 6-8 inches?" Uncle, "bo ye lah, sian tao one, use white light one, bring home you see, sure gone one."...

just for your info...

golden head juvenile xbacks are borned, not "made". they cost more or maybe alot more than a normal xbacks without golden head xbacks.

My answer is put it in a black tank and see what it will turn out to be in weeks or months!

I have the same thought, but the LFS owner ask me to put it in black water and dark surrounding and I will see the color fading in a week or two. That's why I am confused and wanted to ask the bros here. I saw the golden head at the DFI website.
