COMMON CAUSES OF FEMALE HAIR LOSS
The most common type of hair loss
seen in women is androgenetic
alopecia, also known as female
pattern alopecia or baldness and
alopecia areata.
WHAT ARE HAIR ADDITIONS?
A hair addition, or hair prosthesis,
is used to add hair to existing hair
to achieve a thicker, fuller look.
Hair additions are made from a
variety of base materials and are
added to existing hair or scalp to
give one the appearance of a fuller
head of hair. They can include hair
weaves, hair extensions, hair
pieces, toupees, non-surgical hair
replacements, partial hair
prostheses, hair wefts, etc. Hair
additions may may be made with 100%
natural human hair, or with
synthetic hair.
HOW ARE THEY KEPT ON?
Partial hair additions are attached
in a variety of techniques to either
existing hair or directly to the
scalp.
EXISTING HAIR: Clips,
fusion, bonding, micro links,
beading are general terms of
techniques all attached to the
client's existing hair. All are used
to provide more security for the
active life-style. They are all
dependent on the growing existing
hair and therefore must be
reattached or tightened as the
existing hair grows.
TO THE SCALP: Includes
medical grade adhesives such as
two-sided tapes and new improved
waterproof liquids. Vacuum bases are
held on by suction through an
air-tight custom form-fitting
foundation. Vacuum bases are ideal
for women with total hair loss, as
in the case of alopecia totalis or
alopecia universalis, since there is
no existing scalp hair present to
break the vacuum seal.
CAN I
LIVE MY LIFE NORMALLY?
With modern state-of-the-art
women's hair replacement solutions,
you can live an active, full life
without worrying about your hair.
Reallusions hair replacement systems
will not come off during normal wear
or activity. Depending upon the
attachment method and type of hair,
you should ask about swimming etc.
WHAT
WILL PEOPLE AT WORK SAY?
Usually,
people at work never even notice.
One client, in fact, recently told
us that she got a number of
compliments on her hair after her
Reallusions hair addition attached
and styled. (Other women in
the office wanted to know who her
stylist was!) However, if the
hair loss is so severe that it can't
help but be noticed, then we have
found that as long as it looks good,
it is a positive. It’s just like a
suit or dress or any other
accessory. And especially if there
is a recognized need for it.
IS A
HAIR ADDITION DIFFICULT TO TAKE CARE
OF?
Not at all. No matter what
Reallusions hair replacement
solution you choose, we will make
sure that you are trained in how to
make sure it always looks great. We
also have maintenance programs if
you want us to handle all of that
for you.
What
can I expect during an initial
consultation?
Your
private, initial consultation with a
qualified, trained hair restoration
specialist will provide you with an
expert opinion on specific hair
loss causes that relate to you. We are here to help you. A

themselves. We will discuss your
specific goals for your appearance,
review your hair loss
classification, and explain the
various levels that can be achieved
through a wide variety of proven
hair restoration procedures.
WHAT
IS THE HAIR GROWTH CYCLE?
It is normal to lose 75-100
individual hairs daily. With male
pattern baldness, new hair growth is
diminishing in taking the place of
hairs that are shed. Hair is
constantly growing in cycles. These
cycles are as follows:
ANAGEN -
This is the growth cycle in which
cells divide and elevate to the
upper portion of the hair bulb, as
dead cells.
CATAGEN-
During the catagen stage the hair is
separated from it's nutritional
source and hair growth stops.
TELOGEN-
During this cycle (which ranges in
time from one to four months) the
hair either falls out or is forced
out by new growth.
WHAT
ABOUT ROGAINE AND PROPECIA?
Rogaine and Propecia are the
only FDA approved hair growth
treatments. There are hundreds and
maybe thousands of products that
grow profits but none have been
proven to grow new hair. In
terms of controlling hair loss,
DHT Sensor has been show to be
effective in slowing down and
stopping additional hair loss.
DHT Sensor has been shown to be
especially effective when combined
with a program of laser hair loss
treatment.
