In the world
of those who wear hairpieces, there are only a few options of applications and a
great foundation. You should also know
how important they are and roles they play when it comes to comfort and
convenience. For those who wonder about your options when purchasing and wearing
a hairpiece for the first time, this should give you a little insight on the
subject.
From the
past to the present, the application process has a great influence on the lifespan
of your hairpiece. Methods include
clips, bonding and 2-sided adhesive tape.
When choosing a method, make sure it’s the best option for you. Women usually find the clips to work out the
best; for adding fullness in thinning or balding areas. My top pick for applying men’s hairpieces
would be the tape. My reasons come from
both experience and research. Tape has
many advantages that my customers look for.
It allows for quick and easy application and removal. This plays a great role when it comes to
showering, sleeping, and playing sports.
Removing your hairpiece during these activities will help preserve your
piece. Clean up is a no brainer. This process only involves pulling off the old
tape and washing it in the proper solution, and back to new! When it comes to a
great foundation, I enjoy the durability
and strength of using a fine welded mono material. Its light weight, breathable, and the ability
to hold shape makes it an ideal medium to use in making a custom fit hairpiece.
I also use a lace-front finish. Both adds
to the undetected and natural look. Finally is the option of bonding, which I am
100% against. The reasons why include
the messy job of cleaning a hairpiece full of glue, the limitation of removing
it when you desire, and hygiene issues is may cause from improper ventilation. We all have our own favorites, top picks and
reasons, but as a hairstylist and specialist for over 50 years, I think tape is
the best choice!
