Hair Styles
Currently, short, buzzed haircuts are in style and many men find that they look good with this kind of hair cut. It minimizes the appearance of their hair loss. However, keep in mind that fashions change and that this kind of hair cut may be out of style eventually.The less hair loss there is, the better this styling technique may look.
Cosmetics / Concealers
One option to improve your appearance, even if not treating your hair loss, is the use of hair loss concealers. These are cosmetics that make your existing hair look like there is more of it. These products require you to have some hair left and do not work on slick bald spots.
Hair Products
Be wary of hair-care products that claim to thicken and strengthen hair. This is accomplished simply by waxes or oils that build up on hair, creating the illusion of thickening. Products that claim to “unclog” hair follicles are completely without a medical basis.
Non-surgical Replacement
Hair systems may be made with real human hair or synthetic hair. This may include wigs, toupees, and weaves. Lace systems are one of the more popular non-surgical. Lace systems use an extremely fine, flesh toned lace as the base of the unit. This means you can expose the hairline for a much more natural appearance. The latest attachment techniques make swimming, rain and wind problems a thing of the past.
Medical Treatments
There may be many products that claim to medically treat hair. If a treatment is valid, it will be approved by the FDA. There are only two FDA approved medications for treating hair loss: Monixidil (Rogaine ®) and Finasteride (Propecia®) . Because the market is so huge for hair regrowth, there are many scams and simply ineffective products being advertised, especially on the internet. Seek your doctor’s advice before spending your money on any of them. If there were truly “miracle cures,” no one would be bald.
