![]() ![]() Whether you choose synthetic or human hair wigs, full headpieces or extensions, you can cover those patches entirely with hair… even if it ain’t yours. It’s what I did for years and although I eventually got sick of styling and wearing them, wigs gave me an enormous confidence boost at the time. (Or should I say, “Because you’re worth it”?!) 2. ![]() Use the best products for its health and go for a head massage as often as you can. But by making a few dietary changes (like avoiding inflammatory foods) and a few lifestyle changes to lower stress, you might start to see regrowth.Īnd don’t neglect your scalp, either. Try to regrow hair naturallyĮasier said than done, right? Obviously. In these cases, I can offer up a few ideas: 1. Of course, maybe you don’t feel like using a concealer for your bald spots at all. Although I’m not sure how waterproof it would be… so skip this if you live in a very rainy or sweat-inducing climate! Oh, and some hair loss forums rave about using black eyeshadow to hide patches of alopecia, too. Its ingredients help it to stick to the skin better, even if you’re sweating – so goodbye, streaks and flakes! Simply apply it to the patch using a makeup sponge. If you’re worrying about thinning hair and a visible scalp, mineral makeup could be your key to covering those bald spots. These products usually dye the patch and contain hair fibres to give the appearance of thicker hair. (Ooh, magic!) Here’s a powder that comes highly recommended in hair loss forums. Hair loss powders get a pretty good rep nowadays for disguising bald spots, thanks to some serious static electricity bonding by negatively or positively charged fibres. But there are other plenty of other products available, some of which get glowing reviews for their ability to mask alopecia. Magic Root Cover Up is the only bald patch concealer I’ve used. So always look for one that’s long-lasting, and waterproof. You want to have to scrub it off at night rather than it disappearing in the midst of seducing your crush from work. The best sprays cover bald spots for an entire day… or even two. The best ones have natural hair fibres in them (like human hair and Keratin) that blend easily with the rest of your locks. To avoid damaging your existing hair, look for a spray that’s made from natural ingredients. ![]() So look for a spray that gives you a wider palette. Because if you’re a pale blonde with a big ol’ patch of mahogany on your head, you ain’t taking the subtle approach! A lighter skin tone will match lighter sprays and so on. ![]() You don’t want the world to know you’re wearing a spray concealer, just like you don’t want people to know you’re wearing a wig to hide your hair loss. If you don’t fancy L’Oréal spray, bear the following in mind when shopping for a bald spot concealer. So take it off before bed, and wash your hands after each use. Because even though the spray lasts a couple of days, the residue still rubs off on your pillow. A quick shampoo or a dab with some baby wipes and it’s bye, bye dye. Fortunately, there’s not much scrubbing involved when you do want to remove it. Not the look you intended for those party pics. Because the spray is more “water resistant” than “waterproof” and if your head gets soaked, you could be dealing with a streaky mascara effect. Unless it’s a rainy festival, of course. Until the next time you shampoo your hair, in fact – so if you don’t wash it every day, you can enjoy its benefits for longer. It also can also be a bit flaky – so if you have very short hair and are covering a large patch with the spray, don’t let people get too near your noggin! – It’s fine from far away but… close up it might look a bit like you’ve turned to the shoe polish for help. The colour I chose didn’t quite match my natural shade, but it still did a great job of camouflaging my bald spot – even when my hair was too short to layer over it. ![]()
