Celebrity hairpieces, celebrity hair transplants… You are not alone


Whether you are famous or not everyone is concerned about his or her looks. In this day and age it seems like everyone wants to look their best, not only for others but also for themselves. Many actors wear hairpieces, this help them boost their self-esteem as well as makes them look or feel younger. After all, a good head of hair is associated with youth, and attractiveness, so when hair loss happens, it can come as a surprise.

Some examples of celebrities who wear hairpieces are

 
John Travolta has a very natural looking hair replacement. He wears a lace front system that creates a soft hairline. The color and wave pattern are well matched making the hair blend right into the hair replacement system.

                                                                                                                                      
William Shatner who starred in Star Trek has an excellent hairpiece; I have been following him for about 40 years. The reason it is a great hairpiece is that he has good hair on the sides and on the back of his head. This creates plenty of hair to blend into the hairpiece.  If you do not have that much hair on the sides or in the back, it would be much harder to blend the hair in with the hairpiece. Unless done by a professional, you would have to take a hair sample from the right areas of your hair. From my opinion, he wears a lace front hair replacement hairpiece, showing his recession, which also gives it a natural look.





  John Wayne, known for his in many western films is another exception. He has a variety of different hairpieces. Sometimes he wears good hair replacement systems and sometimes he wears bad hairpieces.



There is plenty of hair replacement specialists out there with different opinions about the right hair loss hair replacement system. You would have to find the one that fits you the best and makes you feel great about yourself. Every man or woman can experience hair loss for any of these reasons whether it be from childbirth, to an infection, or from medication. The treatment is in your hands to decide.



Charleston Heston, known as Moses from The Ten Commandments. This is a bad piece. There is too much hair on the front and top, it is too heavy and not enough hair on the sides, I would suggest he grow out the hair on the sides more. The sides are thin and the top is too heavy. He has never had that much hair in his lifetime, there would be no need for him to have that much hair at his age now. The hairpiece should be lightly ventilated and with a slight wave to give it movement. In addition, it should be a lace front, so it would soften his hairline and look natural with his scalp.




Hugh Hefner, known for Playboy. He does not wear a hairpiece anymore. The man is 88 years old, but notice he has hair on the front, all he needs is a partial hairpiece that he can comb his own hair over. In addition, you would never know it, but if he grows his hair longer on the sides, he can blend it in more into the hairpiece and look more natural. This would also give his face a better frame. I would love to make him a great hairpiece if I got the chance to.


Good Luck & Good Lucking

What causes hair loss or in thier words why am I loosing my hair?!

After so many years of hair loss research this question is till widely debated. There is no straight forward answer, and no real cure. There are many factors that go into an individual if its a men or a woman to looses hair. While it is more common for men to loose 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.

Pain Free Hair Pieces Compared to Micrografts

Pain Free Hair Pieces Compared to Micrografts

There are plenty of causes for losing of hair and balding, be it hereditary baldness or from a medical illness or treatment (alopecia, chemotherapy, etc) but there are only a few solutions to treat it. A person might choose the medical treatment and undergo the pain of dealing with the incisions of the cutting and placing of the hairs and then have to deal with the healing time period known as getting a micrograft
               

A better solution is to wear a custom made hair piece specifically made to your specifications. I would give you the option of a full cap or partial hair piece fit to your needs. This hair system gives you natural look to the best hair replacement method in Chicago without the pain.
