Great alternatives for wearing hair replacement systems

The most common consumer of hair systems or hair replacements comes from those who are affected by hereditary baldness.  But much to your surprise, we find that hair systems can be used in many different circumstances.  Most imagine that hair replacements are only worn by mid- age and/or elderly men.  That can be far from the truth if you know your options.  There are several profiles that make up the community of people who can look to hair systems as an answer to their problems.  You can live a normal life and look great with a great undetected hair replacement system.  Don’t let the stereotypes scare you away.

Hair loss can be a side effect for both medical and non-medical conditions.  Undergoing chemotherapy or radiation therapy may cause you to develop alopecia which results in extreme hair loss.  Diabetes and lupus patients suffer from hair loss.  There also are several common medications that may cause hair loss or thinning hair such as certain blood thinners, Parkinson disease, and cholesterol lowering medicines.  Even a hormonal change or imbalance can aid the problem of hair loss.  Poor nutrition, irritation or damage of the hair follicles can cause permanent issues.  Some hair treatments such as tinting and bleaching, usually when over used or misused, and excessive hairstyling or styles that pull hair to tight can play an important role.

            The list goes on into severe scaring from past surgeries, old injuries and also burn victims. They deal with the reality of never having their natural hair grow back in these damaged areas. Whatever way you encounter hair loss, balding or thinning hair in key areas, (front, top, and crown) both men and women look for some type of solution.  Regardless of your story and background, choosing the right hair system can answer your prayers.  Although it’s not a cure, it’s a great way to help with your condition with little time and cost than other surgical options that have no guarantee of results.  Sometimes your insurance may pick up the cost if it relates to a medical condition.  Hair systems are available in both partial and full caps.  This is a wonderful option when dealing with either small or large problem areas. Just always remember to research and educate yourself before choosing a solution.

Good Luck & Good Looking

Surgical and Non-Surgical Hair System Procedures: What’s the Best Method for You

Many suffer with the nightmare of hair loss and search high and low for an answer to their problems.  This blog is to help, educate and guide you in making such an important decision and investment.  As they say “Different strokes, for different folks,” but when you breakdown some of the pros and cons that you face when deciding on a system, much of the real information is left out or not even mentioned. Dealing with such a stressful condition and trying to find a solution, can easily add up to you being persuaded into a decision that you live to regret.  Be sure to research the best possible hair system for your circumstances.  A desperate person would jump to the possibility if it’s presented or advertised the right way. Be aware!!!

When exploring the options of having or deciding on a surgical procedure to fix your hair loss problems, there are many things and steps you might want to look into like; the best doctors, cost, risks and results.  Here’s a short list of a few uncovered and lost facts about surgical hair system methods.

-Most surgeons today are still using outdated procedures

-It requires a very high level of skill, experience and a full staff

-Your hair will never be as full as it was before you start to thin

-There are only 2 FDA approved products that have been clinically proven to stop or prevent                       hair loss (Minoxidil {Rogaine} & Finasteride {Propecia})         

-Only a handful of surgeons performing surgical hair restoration to the state of art standards

-Extensive research required by you; the patient

-The 2 FDA approved products only have an effective outcome for a limit of time and then began to wane

-Most surgeons have a no refund policy regardless of the your results; They don’t guarantee

-Sometimes the procedure can damage your existing hair therefore eliminating any future hope for donor hair

-Many scar, swell and/or suffer from redness, irritation and even infection

- Most prices average at $9.00 per graft (It usually takes a few hundred to a couple of thousands for the treatment)

-Results takes up to 6 months – 2 years

If time, risk, cost and results play a significant role on your list, maybe taking the non-surgical route is best for you.  Having a background and over 50 years in the business, I think it’s the most resourceful and stress-free way to go.  My argument is clarified in the below list. 

-Absolutely no pain involved

-The set up or molding process takes all of a hour and 6-7 weeks to receive your system

-Very safe and sanitary

-Cost comes in under $2000

-Great investment

-A one- time molding process

-Custom fit, undetected, and natural hairline

-Color match from cut samples of your existing hair

-No contracts or memberships required

-Minimum services involved with the care of your system

-Overall affordable, convenient and safe     

Non-surgical hair replacement is a great option for individuals suffering from excessive hair loss. Non-surgical hair replacement refers to any hair replacement solution that is non invasive. This is the safest way of restoring your natural hair. There are many risks that come with surgical hair replacement that can be avoided with non-surgical hair replacement. There is never a guarantee that the hair implanted to the balding area will adapt. This option is also very time consuming, expensive, and painful. You have to consider a certain recovery period as well as a possible infection.  Even though there are many companies out there that are simply trying to make profit by selling the hair replacement systems using stock pieces for a low price, there are also companies that care about offering a customized and undetectable results. David Hansen’s offers the highest quality undetectable systems that are custom designed for every individual to fit their specific needs. Just remember to do extensive research into either method you decide to choose or even change.  Good Luck & Good Looking!

Can my hair replacement be repaird?

It depends on the condition of the hair replacement. Sometimes a small amount of hair falls out of the hair replacement due to regular wear and tear you can notice it thinning out in certain spots. This problem can usually be solved by adding in hair to the balding area. This is done by a professional wig maker who knows how to tie the hair into the base one at a time.This is hard, time consuming, and strenuous work. The cost is usually estimated by the time put into repairing the hairpiece.
Another repair that may be needed is to the base. If the base of the hair system rips it is possible to put it back together. This can also be tedious and time consuming work. The person repairing the hair replacement has to be careful not to make the repair visible. In an instance your hair replacement tears (which should not usually happen) it is better to get a new hair replacement.
