How to choose best hair loss system from best person


How to choose best hair loss system from best person
     By researching and investing the time to find the right hair replacement system, you will save money and time in the end. You can avoid disappointment with the finished product with the right start. To start you should have trust in an expert of hair systems. When you have that trust, you will feel safe and you will know “the expert” will help you look good.
         I believe you should stay away from mail-order hairpieces and pre-styled creations. It is preferably best to buy a hairpiece from experts that specialize in manufacturing their own custom-made hair replacement system. Only then will you own a quality, customized product. With a custom-made hairpiece, you’re measured with all the curves and shapes it has to perfect the fit of the hair system, to give it the right fit. With mail order, you get none of those specifications, which means the hairpiece might not “fit like a glove”. The correct hair replacement system is kind of like a good suit. You are measured over all to perfect the fit, so you will look good. You can choose the quality of material by how good you want to look, same goes for hairpieces. You will pay more to look your best, cotton vs. silk as mail order vs. custom-made. The right stylist will give you the correct option in their eyes for the best beneficial result for you, and not only be anxious to see money in the end.
  The steps involved in this is an interview and asking the right questions to decide if a hairpiece is in the right category for you. Asking a client questions about daily life activities will also clarify their wants/needs for the hair replacement system. A hairpiece is not a fountain of youth. Although it does help and take some years off a person’s age, it will not help you look like you did in your twenties. After the interview, the design and measurement are taken into account. Texture and color are also taken into account so that the custom-made hairpiece will look just as natural and blend in with your real hair. Amount of hair is decided on if you need a partial or a full cap hair loss system. Production of hairpiece does usually take 6-8 weeks, but that is only to benefit client into assembling hairpiece to perfection. As soon as hairpiece is completed, client is called in to get cut and styled with hairpiece on for the best look possible. Only then is when your new hair be secured into the right position.
        David Hansen’s sale is not complete until you (the client) is completely satisfied. I look to create a bond between barber and customer. I guarantee that hair replacement systems I create live up to the workmanship and quality of materials agreed upon. If any more questions feel free to ask me, I’m more than willing to give an honest opinion about the matter.

What is your easiest choice? Tape On or Bonding a Hair Piece?


What is your easiest choice? Tape On or Bonding a Hair Piece?

With so many choices out there to choose from, which would be the best hair loss solution for you? With Mother Nature changing its mood every day, you shouldn’t have to struggle with decisions such as that.


Summer is here and people tend to sweat and get hot, so tape would be a great idea. You can still enjoy most of your normal activities with no worries of hair piece falling off. The tape is a two-way adhesive that is strong and hypo-allergenic. The custom made hair piece made for you can be ventilated which lets your scalp “breath” with the option of easily taking the hair replacement system off because it is only taped on, that way your able to clean your scalp when necessary. Depending on how much you sweat or produces oils and number of activities, usage of tape varies. You can use same tape for a couple days to just using it once a day, which again also depends on the person.

                                                           


Bonding is Semi-permanent which means it gets glued on your scalp, in a non surgical method. There are many good and bad things that come with this method. You don’t have to worry about your hair piece coming off in water, or while asleep or worry about process of taping it daily or every other day. The flaw in this is routine visits to hair loss professional and having them remove it and clean it. Not giving breathing room to scalp can cause more damage to hair left over trying to grow, and is also very unsanitary. For some persons leaving hairpiece on without taking off it can cause a bad odor or worse irritate skin and cause open cuts on scalp.
I prefer tape-on because it is simpler and everyone likes the easier way with fewer problems. I can show each individual how to switch tape on hair loss system to make the process faster by the minute and EASIER for each and every individual. Being you have male pattern baldness, or hair loss from a medical condition (alopecia, chemotherapy), research options and choose right hair replacement system for you. Tape on and bonding each have its own pros and cons, but in the end it is always up to you. My choice is a custom made hair replacement system using tape on.
Good Luck & Good Looking
Thank You,

Summer is here, time to look great



With summer here people tend to be more self-conscious about their looks. With that in mind we live in a world where good looks and a good set of healthy hair is beautiful. In the world of hairpieces the same motto applies. Researching options and finding the right solution to give you that self esteem boost will not only improve your attitude but will give you an aura and everybody will be able to sense it. In my profession clients ask me plenty of questions about the right hair loss solution from stress causing male pattern baldness to a medical condition, such as chemotherapy. Where there is a will there is a way, and I can make that way happen.
The best method for you will be chosen with the right research, being surgical or non-surgical. Non-surgical hair replacement is non invasive, so usually is pain free, compared to surgical where “surgery” is needed. Surgical is also not always guaranteed that the balding area will take, it is also expensive, painful and time consuming. Non surgical is the safest way in restoring your natural hair. Although some companies pride in stock pieces with low prices, I, David Hansen, pride myself in the custom made hair pieces that are specifically molded to fit a clients head that are worth the money in the long run.
Having a background and business of well over 50 years, a non surgical hair piece made with my help, would be the most resourceful and most stress free way to go. David Hansen offers the highest quality, undetectable hair system that are custom made for every individual to fit their everyday needs.

Thank you,

What causes hair loss or in their words why am I losing my hair?!

After so many years of hair loss research this question is still widely debated. There is no straight forward answer, and no real cure. There are many factors that go into an individual if its a man or a woman to loses hair. While it is more common for men to lose hair many women also experience hair loss especially as they age. Many experts found a link between the immune-system and  balding, linking to this is also a male hormone DHT. This hormone is believed to attack the hair follicle causing male-pattern baldness resulting in destructive inflammation that slowly destroys the follicle's ability to produce terminal hair.

Another factor possibly related to hair loss is elevated androgens. This triggers an increase in the production of sebum (oil) , this also leads to inflammation. The hair begins to progressively miniaturizes under the fading autoimmune attack, so that with each following growth cycle the hair gets shorter and thinner until it finally turns into peach fuzz.

Male pattern baldness  has multiple contributing factors once the process has began. Some of the things to take in account is damage to blood vessel linings which prevent a growth factor they normally produce. Similarly it has been observed that severe baldness is strongly connected with heart disease and even diabetes. There are likely other factors as well.

Partial Hair Replacement Systems

Partial hair replacement systems are designed specifically to cover a small balding area. This would commonly be used by someone who started to notice balding in either the temples or the crown of the head. The partial hair replacement can be designed using both fine welded mono as well as injected skin base. This hair system may be bonded as well as taped on depending on preference. As your balding area gets larger your partial is going to bet bigger as well, until you no longer need it and can switch over to a full front lace or injected skin system. Partial hair replacement systems can be created in any shape any size to fit your specific needs, this also makes it a great option for individuals looking to cover a specific area due to an accident or an illness such as Alopecia Areata.

Hair Loss Key Words

Here’s a few terms and meanings that you may come across while researching hair loss options. A great aid for navigating through the world of hair replacements.

Male Pattern Baldness

A progressive, diffuse loss of scalp hair in men that begins in the twenties or early thirties, depends on the presence of the androgenic hormone testosterone, and is caused by a combination of genetic and hormonal factors. Also called alopecia hereditaria, androgenetic alopecia, male pattern alopecia, patterned alopecia.
