Losing your Locks to Hair Loss & Thinning? Here's The Top 5 Hair Solutions for a Fuller Head of Hair

TORONTO - Sept. 17, 2014 - PRLog -- Humans have always cherished a full head of hair and throughout time people have been enhancing their hair. From the early Egyptians who used dyes and hair pieces to change their looks and elevate their status to today’s technologically-created hair systems and solutions, your crowning glory can still look glorious, despite what age, stress, illness may do to it.

Hair loss can happen to anyone at any time.   Alopecia, Chemotherapy and Male/Female patterned baldness are the three primary reasons for hair loss. However, if you are the one going through this traumatizing event, the reason doesn’t matter. Most women are loathe to learn that they suffer from hair loss, hair thinning & balding at the exact same rate as men – 28.9%. That means that 1 in 3 of us are hiding behind comb-overs, hats and denial.

Your scalp has about 110,000 hair follicles on it and hair loss sufferers typically lose 100 hairs per day.

For women, hair loss can be particularly debilitating because of the shock of the change in their appearance, yet short of a full wig, most women don’t know what options are available.  Michael Suba has seen just about everything ever created for hair replacement and enhancement, having spent his whole life sourcing and bringing in the latest innovations in hair from around the world. “I see a thousand women a year that don’t want to see me” says Michael, “but once they sit in my chair and see all the beautiful and seamless options now available to them, they come to see me as their friend. Once they start learning about and trying all the different products on the market they actually get excited about the prospect of enhancing their hair, and it’s not a question of if but what they should get”.

What are Michael’s favorite products for women these days?

1.       The CNC – this newest and most innovative solution from Italy is actually considered a scalp replacement system and allows wearers to sleep, shower, swim, dive and play sports without worry and can be a semi-permanent solution.

2.       The Postiche topper – this thinning hair solution can add 10-40% more density and can be a spot treatment for thinning areas on the scalp.

3.       Tape-on hair extensions – this newest type of hair extension can add length without tearing or breaking your natural hair. All the rage in Hollywood these extensions are easy to manage and undetectable.

4.       Integration Systems – Neither a wig, hairpiece or extension, strands of the finest human and/or synthetic hair are sewn through a sheer nylon or polyester web-like cap. Your own hair is then drawn through the web to blend in with the added hair.

5.       Full cap virgin hair wig – using the highest quality human or synthetic hair, wigs are still a great affordable option for women undergoing chemo and in need of a temporary solution.
