Expert Advice on Alopecia

“Pay attention to your hair. Alopecia can be treated and, depending on the type, even halted if caught soon enough. If you see your hair thinning, speak to your doctor first. Sometimes, even the lack of certain vitamins can be the culprit. Never assume it will just get better with shampoo or treatment, as hair health usually starts from the inside out, " says Tara Gerhart, Superhairpieces hair replacement expert.

Finding the Right Fit

Measuring Your Head

Proper measurement is crucial for comfort and security. You'll need to measure:

• Circumference around your hairline
• Front to nape distance
• Ear to ear across the top
• Temple to temple across the forehead

Comfort Considerations

Living with alopecia often means dealing with sensitive scalp areas. Look for wigs with:

• Soft, snug cap for the best fit
• Adjustable straps for a customized fit
• Minimal pressure points
• Lightweight construction

Styling and Maintenance

Making It Your Own

A new wig rarely looks perfect straight out of the box. Consider professional styling to:

• Trim the length to suit your face shape
• Add layers for natural movement
• Adjust the hairline for the most flattering look
• Color matching, if needed

Daily Care

For Human Hair Wigs:

• Wash every 10-15 wears with sulfate-free products
• Use leave-in conditioner to maintain moisture
• Air dry when possible to extend lifespan
• Store on a wig stand to maintain shape

Insurance and Financial Assistance

Many insurance plans cover wigs when prescribed by a physician for medical hair loss. Check with your provider about:

• Coverage amounts and limitations
• Required documentation
• Approved suppliers
• Renewal policies

Building a Wig Wardrobe

Consider having multiple wigs for different occasions:

• A high-quality everyday wig
• A backup option for washing days
• Special occasion styles
• Exercise-friendly lightweight options

Embracing Your Journey

Remember that wearing a wig is a choice, not a necessity. Some days you might choose a colorful scarf, a stylish hat, or simply embrace your beautiful bald head. The key is having options that make you feel confident and authentically you.

Your relationship with wigs may evolve over time, and that's perfectly normal. What matters most is that you feel supported, informed, and empowered to make choices that enhance your well-being and self-expression.
