Hair thinning has a variety of possible causes, including alopecia, chemotherapy, stress, pregnancy, and menopause. Whatever the cause, hair thinning can be very unsettling, especially if it is in a noticeable place. Thankfully, there are ways to disguise hair thinning, so you can start feeling like yourself again! Hair pieces for thinning hair might be the answer for one person, while wigs could be the best solution for another. In this blog post, we’ll look at the options available and how to decide which route is best suited to your needs.
Hairpieces for Thinning Hair
Hairpieces are an ideal fit if you’re experiencing hair thinning in the ends of your hair or back of your head. If you’d love to wear a full and voluminous updo or a classic ponytail, but your hair has become thin or wispy, our easy-wear hairpieces can help you achieve the perfect updo.
For a day-to-day ponytail, we love this Glam A Hairpiece by Gisela Mayer. It’s perfect for an everyday look, and works with both formal and informal outfits for an effortless but tidy hairstyle. The simple crocodile clips make it quick to put in and keeps the style secure throughout the day.
For a slightly more formal look, we have an extensive range of buns which easily attach to your hair for achievable sophistication. If you’re searching for a wedding hairstyle or are hoping to wear your hair up for a special occasion, the Undone Chignon Hairpiece by Hot Hair is your new best friend with its loose look which attaches securely.
If you prefer a longer, more formal hairpiece, the Champagne New Ponytail Power Pieces are the epitome of sophistication and can be styled in a variety of ways.
Extensions
It might be that you aren’t seeing thinning in just one area but are experiencing general hair thinning over your whole head. If this makes you feel like you’re losing volume and thickness, our selection of hair extensions could be just what you need to help rebuild your confidence and give your hair the lustre it deserves. We have a variety of hair extensions, from curly to straight and human to synthetic.
The ‘Quick In‘ extension from Power Pieces is on a one piece attachment that is incredibly easy to secure. Perfect if you are wanting to have long hair, or if you want to add more volume to make your hair look thicker.
Fringes
Sometimes hair thinning occurs in the crown area or nearer the hairline which can, understandably, make you feel particularly self-conscious. A popular way of disguising hair loss near the front of the head is by using a clip-in fringe. Whether you prefer a full fringe or side swept fringe, browse our clip-in fringe selection for an instant change!
We love the full, glossy Lemon Hairpiece and the chunky, side swept Clip Lock Bangz Revlon Hairpiece, both pictured below. Both pieces have longer wisps either side of the fringe to seamlessly blend in with your hair.
The Lemon Hairpiece from the Power Pieces range not only adds a funky fringe to your style, but it also has wisps at the side of the fringe, so it can integrate with your own hair perfectly. If you are wanting to try a new look, or if you just want some extra volume for your fringe, this piece is perfect.
The Clip Lock Bangz fringe from Revlon is brilliant. If you are wanting a fringe without the commitment of having a trim, then here is your solution. Or, perhaps you would like your fringe to be thicker….then here is your answer. Easy to attach at a fantastic price.
Wigs for Thinning Hair
It might be that you would prefer to wear a full wig instead of using hair pieces. If you are concerned that your thinning is going to get worse, a wig might be a more reassuring choice for you and can be styled whichever way, without having to accommodate thinning patches. While you might wonder how to secure a wig with no hair or thinning hair, there are a number of ways including caps and tape. We have a broad range of wigs from synthetic to human hair wigs, and we are confident you will find a wig you’ll fall in love with.
