Men’s Hair Pieces: Choosing the Right Base Style for You
When looking buying menâs hair pieces online, one of the most important choices to consider is the type of base needed. The âbaseâ of the hair piece is what the hair follicles are sewn into. Common base materials include polyurethane, lace and nylon. Different base materials serve different purposes and each has its own positive and negative attributes.
Lace bases are very comfortable, as lace is usually the best material for air flow. A lace hairpiece will also offer a very natural appearance at the front hairline as the lace front is very fine and virtually invisible. On the flip side, lace hair pieces tend to break down faster than other materials because the lace is very delicate. Attachment may also be more completed, especially if you plan to use hair piece tape. The tape can sometimes be more difficult to remove and tearing may occur.
Nylon bases are somewhat similar to lace. Nylon menâs hair pieces can come in a variety of styles including fine mono and welded mono. A nylon base will also have superior ventilation compared with polyurethane bases and thus offer more comfort to the hair wearer. Nylon is also typically stronger than lace; making nylon hair pieces a more durable option. Some may argue that nylon does not offer as natural an appearance as lace when used in base construction; however the quality of nylon produced these days has helped nylon to rival lace in natural appearance. The durability of nylon also helps hair piece wearers with easy removal, as they do not have to worry about tearing quite as much as they would with a lace hair piece.
Polyurethane hair pieces are sometimes referred to as PU or thin skin. It is designed to almost mimic the appearance of actual skin. Menâs hair pieces made of polyurethane have become a very popular choice in the hair replacement industry. PU offers a very natural appearance is easy to care for. It is also a material very commonly used for disposable hair pieces. One of the main downsides to using a polyurethane base construction is the material tends to be less breathable than lace or nylon. This can make the hair wearer hot and uncomfortable, especially if they live in a warm climate or have a very active lifestyle.
Often, base materials are combined to create hybrid base styles. For example, many of the most popular menâs hair pieces use bases that are constructed mainly of lace or nylon, but feature a polyurethane perimeter for easy attachment. Sometimes, all three materials may be combined to provide the best features of each of the materials. You may see a base composed of welded mono, with a PU perimeter for attachment and a fine lace front to offer the most natural appearance.
Choosing the right base style for your hair piece is relatively easy. Itâs just a matter of deciding what your priorities are. If you value a natural appearance over anything else, you may want to choose lace. If you donât want to spend a lot of time maintaining your hair piece, you may prefer a polyurethane unit. Many men often find that a variety of different base styles suit them well, and donât mind using a selection of different base materials.

Disposable Hair Pieces: Myths and Misconceptions

Disposable Hair Pieces: Myths and Misconceptions
Disposable hair pieces. If youâve been around the hair replacement industry lately, youâve probably heard this term. In fact, disposable hair pieces are one of the most popular forms of hair replacement systems these days. But what are disposable hair pieces, and why should (or shouldnât) you be buying them?
Many hair replacement companies are touting disposable hair pieces as the ultimate hair loss solution. Think about it â you get the hair, wear it for a month, and throw it away. What could be better than that?
Actually, the whole thing is kind of a joke. In recent years, the cost for producing human hair pieces has significantly increased. Many hair replacement companies in the United States decided instead of passing the price increase on to their customers, or taking the hit themselves, they would find another way to sell hair pieces at the same prices. Thus, disposable hair pieces were born.
In a nutshell, hair replacement companies have continued to keep their prices low by vastly reducing the quality of their hair replacement systems. Then, to disguise the poor quality, theyâve rebranded their product as disposable hair pieces. This way, they accomplish several things â they keep their costs low, disguise poor quality hair by forcing clients to discard the system after 30 days, and they get clients reordering hair on a monthly basis.
This switch to lesser quality hair puts the consumer at a huge disadvantage. They end up purchasing poor quality goods, disguised as a convenience item. The reality is quality hair pieces can still be affordable. Consumers just need to look in the right places. When searching for a hair replacement company online, shoppers need to be wary of vendors selling disposable hair pieces. This is a sure fire sign of a shoddy product. Instead, look for stock pieces that offer some longevity. If you canât get 3 good months of use out of your hair piece, you should absolutely look for a new hair piece provider. Another huge indicator of poor quality is any type of program or service that you need to make a monthly commitment to in order to get a reasonable price on a hair piece. Letâs face it, thereâs no reason why a hair replacement provider in another state, that youâve never personally met should be telling you when itâs time to change your hair system. If it ainât broke, donât fix it. A good quality hair piece should last well over 30 days, and you should continue to wear your hair system as long as possible. There is no reason why you would need to change a perfectly good hair piece just because 30 days has passed, so this is a clear sign that your hair replacement company is taking you for a ride. Instead, look for a company that has fair pricing and allows you to purchase hair pieces at will, with no strings attached. A company that stands behind their products doesnât need a monthly commitment from you, their products and service will naturally keep you coming back.
