If you\u2019ve recently invested in one of our premium men\u2019s hairpieces, there are tasks you\u2019ll need to undertake to prepare for its attachment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Along with preparing your scalp and finding the right adhesive for your needs, you\u2019ll need to ensure your natural hair matches your hairpiece to ensure the perfect blend and a truly discreet finish. Here we share our top tips for doing just that so you can wear your hairpiece with complete confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Select the right dye<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Whether you\u2019re using a hairpiece to conceal the symptoms of male pattern baldness or looking for temporary coverage whilst you recover from traction alopecia<\/a>, matching your hairpiece with your natural hair is the best way to ensure a look that\u2019s natural and realistic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hair replacement systems<\/a> after all only provide partial coverage, leaving the sides of the head and your natural hair on display. Choosing the right dye for you may involve a bit of trial and error. But instead of looking for the perfect colour match, select a shade that blends with your hairpiece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many hairpiece wearers choose to test their chosen dye on a section of the hair before committing to full head application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consider dyeing your wig<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you really want a match made in heaven, consider dyeing your wig as well as your natural hair. If you\u2019ve purchased a synthetic hairpiece rather than a human hair replacement system however, dyeing your wig is not recommended. Here Lauren and Vanessa<\/a> explain why:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAnother vital ingredient in hair dye is peroxide because it removes the pre-existing color to \u2018make room\u2019 for the new one.\u00a0 Unlike natural hair, synthetic hair doesn\u2019t have a cuticle nor the cortex where the pigment can be deposited. Even more so, the chemicals found in regular hair dye, like ammonia, could damage synthetic hair.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Take care of your hair<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Whether dyeing your natural hair, your wig or both, how you take care of your hair afterwards will make all the difference. Taking care of coloured hair<\/a> is quite the learning curve. Dyed natural hair and wigs need hydration and frequent touch-ups to stay as fresh and fabulous as they should be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A word about washing, however; avoid washing your coloured hair or wig for a few days after dyeing. Ammonia-based dyes need time to settle into and penetrate the hair shaft. We advise leaving at least 72 hours between colouring and washing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Choose your products wisely<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Sulfate-free shampoos are a great choice for maintaining colour. The intense cleansing action of sulfates can strip your hair of both colour and moisture, leaving dyed hair looking a little lacklustre in no time at all. Opt for shampoos and conditioners that are gentler and made from natural, organic ingredients for the best care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
