If
you are unhappy with your thinning hair, perhaps it is
time to consider some techniques to hide your hair loss.
Whether you are a man or a woman losing hair due to
heredity, stress, medication or a medical condition you
can use these tips to help you cope.
Blow-dry your Hair
If your
hair is thinning on top, consider blow drying it when you
get out of the shower to give it added texture and body to
give your head more coverage. Brush it into a quiff on the
top of your head by brushing it from the forehead up.
Secure the style with just a little bit of hairspray. If
your hair is simply thinning throughout, this is a good
way to make your hair look fuller.
Get
a Buzz Cut
Actors,
sports stars and businessmen alike all utilize the buzz
cut as a way to hide the fact that they are losing hair.
It is a popular and nowadays classy style that is easy to
maintain. Purchase a wet-dry electric razor to groom your
scalp daily and remove the hairs you have left for a clean
look. A close to the scalp cut for women can be a
beautiful way to accentuate your facial features if you
have a head shaped for it.
Consider a Natural Wig or Hairpiece
A
hairpiece that is made of human hair is your best bet if
you choose to hide your hair loss with an old-fashioned
wig or hairpiece. Choose something that is close to your
natural hair color and texture, and try to match and blend
it in with the hair you still have, like sideburns or
facial hair.
Weave Extensions into your Hair
Extensions are an easy way for women and men with long
thick hair to hide the fact that they are losing some.
Call a few hair salons and get some quotes on getting
natural human hair added to your hair for more hair that
will last for several weeks to several months.
Purchase Fashionable Hats
Hats
are always in style, and if you have many hat options
people will tend to think you are a hat aficionado instead
of assuming you are losing your hair. Keep a few baseball
caps and beanies around for relaxing. Buy a fedora or two
for style and purchase a few casual hats for variations.
Use
a Hair Thickening Shampoo or Conditioner
Purchase a hair thickening shampoo or conditioner meant to
help hide loss by making the hair appear to be thicker.
Brush hair gently after shampooing and conditioning to
prevent losing more hair, and allow hair to dry thoroughly
before combing or brushing it.
