Wigs as a Safe Alternative to Male Hair Loss in Philadelphia
For men facing hair loss, the options may seem extreme. Expensive shampoos claim hair regrow this with potentially unproven results and serious side effects. Some of these products can only assist particular types of hair loss, and will not assist 30% of users at all. Hair transplant surgery is exactly what it sounds like—surgery. These surgeries move hair from the back of the head to the front. There will be a period of time where it will be noticeably healing and the hair length will be uneven. Like any surgical procedure, there is a risk of infection. And of course, there is a cost, which often ranges in the four figures.
But for those in Philadelphia looking for a safe, simple, cost-effective solution to hair loss, considering a wig or toupee for male pattern baldness is a great option.
Customizable Wig Options for Men
There are many different options for hairpieces, depending on how often it will be worn and how durable it needs to be. For example, some hairpieces are small, only covering a patch of baldness on the crown. Others are slightly larger, cover the top of the head. A full wig will fit down over the head, creating natural hairlines.
Wigs can be matched to the color of existing facial hair or older photos of hair. Silver strands can be added in for a more natural look. These wigs can be cut to match your signature style. Have you always part your hair to the left? No problem. Your wig can look the same.
When it comes to the materials that wigs are made out of, there are two main choices: synthetic or human hair. Synthetic hair wigs are more cost-effective. They have shorter longevity and best for those who are going to wear their wigs less often. Human hair wigs are often a bit more expensive. They tend to last longer. Wigs made of human hair have the added benefit of being styled like natural hair. Limited use of heated tools is safe for natural hair.
