Hair Replacement Surgery- What is Correct For Your Bald Head

Hair replacement surgery is sort of a new thing today, so not too many surgeons are so good at it. If you are looking to undergo the procedure, you want to take some time to look around of somebody who actually has some experience doing stuffs like that. It would be a pity to let on someone who has no clue what they are doing.

There are more people in the United States today who use a rug because of lack of hair. I speak not of the rug that you place on the flooring of your living room; rather I speak of the type that lies on your head to cover your baldness. Well, no more. All of them can begin coming in for hair replacement now because the procedure does work.

Hair loss is not something that is too strange in the United States, but people are constantly looking for ways to stop the process because of what it does to them. That is how hair replacement surgery came about today, another way of solving the age old problem of hair loss. With the right surgeon, you can have the procedure done and hair covering that bald spot once again.

Due diligence is totally in order when looking for somebody to help out with a hair replacement surgery. This is one thing that you cannot be too trivial with, considering that it is dealing with something you are rather sensitive about, your hair. You don’t want to end up balder than an egg, do you?

Hair Loss, it’s Reasons and Hair Replacement:

When you have some hairs left on the top of your head, with a lot more at the back of your head, you are what I call a very lucky person. You see, easy as hair replacement surgery is, every procedure has their strong and weak points. With this innovative procedure, the restriction is other hairs. When there aren’t those to work with, the surgery will not be feasible. They need hairs on other sections of your body to use.

Everyone can have their hair replaced, as long as they qualify. In this practice, the only qualification required is that you still have hairs on your head that the physician can use, and that other parts of your body can also lend hairs to help. That done, it does not matter that you are a man or a woman, your hair can be replaced.

You know all of those surgeries in which they put a tube in your mouth and pump in some gas to knock you unconscious while someone else helps you to breathe with a pumping machine? Sure you do. But hair replacement surgery is a lot different than that. In this procedure they can carry out the procedure while you are wide awake! Its called a local anaesthesia; the type that puts part of your body to slumber whereas the rest of you is awake.

You can always allow yourself to relax when you think about surgical procedures. It is held that a lot of people have lost their lives during surgeries, especially with careless and less than qualified surgeons. However hair replacement is monitored such that you can have your eyeballs wide open while it goes on, and if something creeps you, you can speak up right away.

Buying the Correct Size Wig

Buying the Correct Size Wig

Article by Lynne Henderson







How do you know which size wig to buy when you are new to wigs? The different colours, sizes and cap contructions can be confusing when you have never had to think about buying a wig before. However, with just a little bit of knowledge, the sizes will be easier to understand.

The majority of wig wearers have average size heads. Around 90% – 95% of the wig wearing population will be an average fitting. An average wig is 22.5″ but most wigs are adjustable. All wigs have tabs at the back of the wig which allows the wig to be made slightly bigger or smaller. The tabs adjust by either sliding along (like a small bra strap) or they adjust with velcro. Either way of adjustment is good for tightening the wig firmly onto the head or for making the wig a little bigger.

The demand for a petite or large wig is quite low. Only approximately 5% of people have a petite sized head so manufacturers do not seem to create that many wigs in this size. However, there are are still lots of lovely petite wigs on the market. Some shops provide an wig altering service and an average wig can be made smaller to fit a petite head.

How do you find out what size wig will fit you? The size of the person doesn’t really give any indication as to the size of wig they will need. You really need to measure your head to be sure of getting the right size. To do this, use a soft tape measure. Measure around your hairline, above the ears and to the front of your forehead keeping the tape measure level with the hairline all the way around. An average measurement will be approximately 22.5 inches. A person needing a petite wig would measure around 21″ to 21.5″ If you measure 23″ you may need a large wig but it is always wise to try on an average wig just to be absolutely sure. The reason for this is that there are even less large wigs available than petite wigs. A normal average wig CAN stretch up to fit a large head but if it feels too tight, it can work it’s way off the head, so make sure that whatever wig you try feels comfortable.

Rarely, someone may measure larger than the largest wig fitting. The only way around this it to have a wig custom made which is hugely expensive. It would be the same for an untra petite fitting which could be anything under 21 inches. There are some children’s wigs on the market and it could well be worth trying one on if you have a very small head.

Go to a shop and try some wigs on. The shop may even measure you head for you and you will be able to try differnt size wigs to be sure of your fitting. Remember up to 95% of people wear an average wig so it may seem like a minefield but the chances are an average wig will fit you perfectly well!
