Your partner in confidence - In one small study, individuals reported equally fast improvements in their self-esteem and emotional well-being after wearing a toupee.
1. Toupee will never restore your lost hair: A toupee greatly covers up all the bald areas but does not do anything behind new hair growth. But yes, if you are using prescribed products like minoxidil (Rogaine) or oral finasteride (Propecia) they can address and treat hair loss (again, depending on the type of hair loss as well)
2. Toupees are costly: Getting your hands on a toupee is more affordable than hair transplant surgery, but it’s still not cheap. An individual toupee will cost you from a hundred to a thousand dollars depending on your needs. The more realistic the toupee looks, the higher the price it will ask for. Also, you have to consider the other costs like replacing and refitting toupee, which usually happens every few months.
3. Maintenance and aftercare: Toupees need TLC( Tender loving care), just like regular human hair, the more to take care of your toupee the more natural and clean it will look, apart from that toupees need regular shampooing and conditioning using instructed products.
4. Increases your getting-ready time: Incorporating a toupee into your daily routine may extend your getting-ready time. Applying adhesive and securing the toupee requires careful attention, which can be more time-consuming compared to other hair care options that are either more permanent or seamlessly fit into your regular grooming regimen.
5. Chances are it can cause anxiety: Wearing a toupee can improve the quality of life for some, but for others, it creates new anxieties or fears, you might be thinking how right? As per the research, 49% of people with alopecia areata avoided activities like exercise or swimming due to fears of their toupee falling off or being revealed.
How long it takes to see results: Depends on the person. Some respond to minoxidil better than others, and some fail to see any difference, on average minoxidil works for you, and ask for six to 12 months to see results.
And in just about few months, PRP can help lessen hair loss.
