After you receive your new hair replacement system, it’s essential that you know how to properly care for your new look. While your new hair won’t interfere with your normal lifestyle, here are a few care tips to keep your new hair looking its best. Consult your hair restoration specialist if you have any concerns.

Wait 24 hours before showering. After a bond or graft service visit please allow at least 24 hours before getting your new hair system wet or shampooing it. In order to keep your new hair systemlooking its best and lasting its longest, please follow these important steps:

1. Gently brush all the tangles out of your hair with a vent brush prior to wetting for shampooing.
2. Use a quarter sized amount of shampoo and rub in hands prior to applying gently to your hair system.
3. Apply the shampoo and rinse in one direction only. Do not vigorously massage.
4. Apply a quarter sized amount of conditioner in the same manner and let set for 2 minutes. Rinse in one direction.
5. Gently “pat” hair dry with a towel, do not rub or “towel whip”.
6. Apply leave in conditioner and any styling product you desire and style hair.
7. Only use a vent brush for styling and combing and do not needlessly scrape the base with the brush.

8.      If using a blow dryer, only use low heat and low air flow. Do not dry until “bone dry”.

9.      Finish up with hair spray if you desire.

Does Shampoo Cause Hair Loss?

Every day you lose approximately 150 stands of hair from your head, to maintain the normal density of your hair, each of these strands is replaced by new hair growth. Hair loss occurs when more hair is lost than regrown and the density of the hair decreases. When this happens, many people tend to shampoo less, as they believe that shampooing causes more hair to be lost.

Not just shampooing, a person may lose up to 150 strands of hair every day and this is completely normal. Your hair sheds throughout the day; while combing, while shampooing, while oiling, while massaging etc. but we mistake that these things causes hair loss. Whatever you do, whatever you don’t do, these hair strands WILL shed naturally. So throw out the fear of shampooing your hair. Shampooing has no effect on hair loss.

Cleansing and moisturizing your hair is very much important in your hair care routine hence one shouldn’t feel any allergic about shampooing or oiling hair in the fear of hair loss. On the other hand, if you are losing more than 150 hair strands in a single day and if this continuous for a long period, then it is necessary to consult and expert.

George Costanza Gets Some Hair

The actor who played the famously bald George Costanza on the hit sitcom Seinfeld has recently stepped out with a new, full head of hair. Jason Alexander explained through a Twitter post that he had been trying many different hair systems and told his fans to expect to see him with “more hair than usual.”

Semi-Permanent Hair Pieces: Following a surprised reaction from the media, Alexander went on to explain that he and his designer had worked together to create a great-looking, semi-permanent hairpiece.  It stays on for weeks at a time, even when he swims and showers, but can also be removed whenever he likes.   

How You Can Use Alexander’s New System for Your Hair: Instead of creating a dense head of hair that he says he never had, Alexander’s designer worked out a thin hairpiece that looks great and makes him look a decade younger.  When working on hair restoration with a skilled designer, you can decide for yourself what thickness or length will provide your perfect look.  With expert skill in design and production, the perfect hair system can be produced and blended seamlessly with your  natural growing hair.

Hair loss is much more than just losing your hair—it can cause a dramatic shift in how you feel physically and emotionally.  Thinning hair can cause feelings of discouragement and a loss of self-confidence, which may harm personal relationships and work performance.  Fortunately, there are many solutions available that can treat or restore what was lost.  Read on to learn about four effective solutions to help with hair loss:

1.      Cosmetic Reconstruction:  This type of hair replacement solution involves reconstructing a hair system with the perfect density, feel, and behavior to match your own natural hair.  The reconstruction seamlessly blends with the growing hair with an expertly crafted part and hairline.  

 2.      Laser Hair Therapy:  Low-level laser radiation (LLLR) is used to stimulate the scalp and energize the hair follicles, causing increased hair growth and cessation of hair loss.  Over 90% of patients report positive results within as little as eight weeks of starting laser treatment.

 3.      Transplant Surgery:  Different-sized grafts are transferred to the parts of the scalp that are experiencing hair loss to achieve a fuller, more natural look.  The grafts are arranged to produce any look fullness that is desired and is only constrained by the quality and density of the hair in the donor region, fineness of the hair, and differences in color between the hair and scalp.  

 4.      Chemotherapy Wigs:  For those experiencing the hair loss associated with chemotherapy, wigs can be found to help them look their best during treatment.  Compassionate professionals can help to find the perfect wig for your needs.
