The first precaution in purchasing or using a hair system — wig, toupee, hair weave — of course would be to make sure it doesn’t fall off. The place you buy it from will probably brief you on how to use the wig. It would be a good idea to wear it at home so you are comfortable in it before braving the outside world. This will also alert you to what not to do with it lest you discover in the bathroom mirror that you have been looking very silly for the past three hours! It is bound to feel uncomfortable and itchy in the beginning. If the itching persists at uncomfortable levels, go back to the store/stylist for an adjustment.
Trichology centres will also load you with maintenance therapies and accessories that will cost a bomb. So while deciding your budget, leave some leeway for extra costs.
Thinking you can wear a wig without anyone noticing is being naïve. It is more for the wearer’s own satisfaction than the onlooker’s benefit. Also, once you start wearing a wig, you can’t go a day without it for the sake of consistency. It adds to things you need to do routinely. Overtime, you get used to it but it sure is inconvenient.
For those who do not wish to go for invasive procedures but can’t stand the sight of that bald spot, wigs are a good option. Once you decide, go for a professional wig maker who can customise the wig for you. Also, being stingy on the cost is not a good idea because this is an accessory to be worn for long periods every day.
Finally, do not expect miraculous makeovers. The people you see on TV have highly-paid professionals continuously looking after them and their styling. Also, remember that they are paid for how they look.
