Men’s hair loss rarely looks the same from person to person, which is why there is no single right answer for which solution is best. What matters is how much of your own hair you have left and where on your head it is missing.

Early thinning

If you still have coverage across your entire head but feel that your hair is getting thinner, you rarely need a full wig. A hairpiece attached with clips to your own hair adds volume where it is needed and can be removed whenever you want. It requires you to have enough of your own hair to attach it to, which is precisely why it is best to start in time.

Receding hairline and thinning at the crown

When the thinning is concentrated at the crown and the hairline is receding, a toupee is often the most natural choice. It covers exactly the area that needs coverage and allows you to keep your own hair at the sides and back, creating a transition that is hard to beat.

Extensive hair loss

If your own hair is gone or very sparse, a full men’s wig gives the best result. You have full control over the hair volume, length and hairline, and avoid the problem of matching it to existing hair.

What determines whether it looks natural?

Two things: the hairline and the hair volume. A lace base at the front edge makes the hair strands look as if they are growing directly from the skin. And a wig with too much hair is the most common reason something looks wrong - adult hair is not as thick as many people think.
