Disposable Hair Pieces: Are they worth it?

Disposable Hair Piece

There are a number of reasons that you may be considering utilizing a hair piece to enhance the way that you look and feel. Regardless of why you have been experiencing hair loss or thinning, however, there are many high quality and authentic looking hair pieces available on the market to help you get your confidence back. 

What are disposable hair pieces? 

Though some individuals may be comfortable investing the extra money into an extended wear wig or hair piece, others may not be as interested in spending as much. Until recently, these people have been without a suitable solution for coping with hair loss. Today, however, you have the freedom to decide between extended wear and disposable hair pieces, depending on your own personal needs. These pieces are worn for a period of time (often 30 days) but not nearly as long as an extended wear hair piece.

Is a disposable hair piece right for me?

To assist you in evaluating your hair piece requirements we will take a look at several misconceptions that people have about disposable pieces and whether or not they are worth it for your situation.

Misconception #1 

It is not uncommon for people to jump to the conclusion that if something is disposable, it must be low quality. This generates the fear that a disposable hair piece will be easy for other to detect. In reality, most disposable hair pieces are designed to look so natural that they can be difficult to distinguish from real hair. 

Misconception # 2 

Some people worry that a disposable hair piece will be required to be changed every day, making it a burden. The truth here is that a disposable piece can be worn for awhile, just like an extended wear piece. The typical lifespan of a disposable hair piece is approximately one month. It is usually attached with a medical grade adhesive to feel like a second layer of skin.

Misconception #3 

If you are concerned that a disposable hair piece would not stay in place, think again. These hair pieces are intended for somewhat extended wear which means that you will be provided with several different methods of adhesion to keep it in place. When done properly, you will not have to be fearful that your piece will slip or move.

Misconception # 4 

Don't let the word "disposable" fool you into believing that the material for these pieces is cheap or low quality. You are well within your right to ask about what material was used to craft the piece. Many disposable hair pieces are made of very thin skin graft material for a natural look.

Misconception #5 

You, like many others, may be worried that you will have to affix your disposable hair piece to your head all by yourself. Though this is a viable option, you may be relieved to know that hair professionals are also able to work with these types of pieces to give you the perfect look that will provide you with the confidence that you deserve. 

If concerns about the quality of a disposable hair piece as compared to an extended wear hair piece have been holding you back, it is important that you understand that these misconceptions hold no bearing. Though you may still prefer to make the investment in a more expensive and long term wig, you should still be aware that for those who prefer to spend less and still look great, disposable hair pieces are a viable option that will leave you looking natural and feeling confident.
