How to Hide Hair Loss

How to Hide Hair LossIf 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.
