Cancer hair loss

www.davidhansen.com
The common name for medical hair loss solution is cranial prosthesis.

These are designed by David Hansen for people experiencing hair loss due to:

• Chemotherapy
• Radiation
• All types of Alopecia
• Burn victims
• Accident victims

Chemotherapy and radiation

• Many radiation and chemotherapy patients experience hair loss during their treatment. This could last anywhere from a year up, meanwhile there are solutions to this excessive hair loss. Custom made full skull-caps are especially designed to cover the entire balding area from the widow’s peak all the way to the nape of the neck. This gives the patient a full head of natural looking hair, similar to the way they had it before the hair loss.
  

Chemotherapy and cancer treatment hair loss

Cancer treatments such as chemotherapy, chemotherapy drugs, and radiation may result in hair loss. This can vary from temporary to permanent hair loss. While with chemotherapy the hair loss is usually temporary when it comes to radiation it can go either way.

With chemotherapy if an individual is going to lose their hair varies with each patient. Some people experience hair loss that usually begins one to three weeks after the beginning of treatment, others do not experience hair loss at all. The hair loss due to chemotherapy usually starts growing back anywhere from six months to a year after the treatment.

Since custom made cranial prosthesis take six to eight weeks to be produced depending on the time of the year, it is better to order your prosthesis before the hair loss occurs. By planning in advance it is also possible for David Hansen the hair replacement specialist(main page) to match your original hair color, texture, and wave pattern.

 

Insurance coverage options

Individuals experiencing hair loss due to medical reasons such as cancer, alopecia, accidents, or burns may be eligible for between 80 to a 100% reimbursement from their insurance provider.

 

There are several guidelines you need to follow in order to receive 

this coverage:

• Check the benefits of your insurance (usually there is a section under covered expenses that relates to prostheses.)
• You would need to ask your physician to write you a prescription for FULL CRANIAL HAIR PROSTHESIS
• To be safe you may also want to ask the physician to write a letter explaining the impact hair loss has on a person’s well being that are symptomatic  of your condition.  Low self esteem, depression and isolation are some common symptoms.
• Once you order your cranial hair prosthesis keep the copy of your sales or invoice receipt.
• You may also include a letter from you explaining the importance of the prosthesis for your well being.

How to choose best hair loss system from best person

How to choose best hair loss system from best person

     By researching and investing the time to find the right hair replacement system, you will save money and time in the end. You can avoid disappointment with the finished product with the right start. To start you should have trust in an expert of hair systems. When you have that trust, you will feel safe and you will know “the expert” will help you look good.

         I believe you should stay away from mail-order hairpieces and pre-styled creations. It is preferably best to buy a hairpiece from experts that specialize in manufacturing their own custom-made hair replacement system. Only then will you own a quality, customized product. With a custom-made hairpiece, you’re measured with all the curves and shapes it has to perfect the fit of the hair system, to give it the right fit. With mail order, you get none of those specifications, which means the hairpiece might not “fit like a glove”. The correct hair replacement system is kind of like a good suit. You are measured over all to perfect the fit, so you will look good. You can choose the quality of material by how good you want to look, same goes for hairpieces. You will pay more to look your best, cotton vs. silk as mail order vs. custom-made. The right stylist will give you the correct option in their eyes for the best beneficial result for you, and not only be anxious to see money in the end.

  The steps involved in this is an interview and asking the right questions to decide if a hairpiece is in the right category for you. Asking a client questions about daily life activities will also clarify their wants/needs for the hair replacement system. A hairpiece is not a fountain of youth. Although it does help and take some years off a person’s age, it will not help you look like you did in your twenties. After the interview, the design and measurement are taken into account. Texture and color are also taken into account so that the custom-made hairpiece will look just as natural and blend in with your real hair. Amount of hair is decided on if you need a partial or a full cap hair loss system. Production of hairpiece does usually take 6-8 weeks, but that is only to benefit client into assembling hairpiece to perfection. As soon as hairpiece is completed, client is called in to get cut and styled with hairpiece on for the best look possible. Only then is when your new hair be secured into the right position.

        David Hansen’s sale is not complete until you (the client) is completely satisfied. I look to create a bond between barber and customer. I guarantee that hair replacement systems I create live up to the workmanship and quality of materials agreed upon. If any more questions feel free to ask me, I’m more than willing to give an honest opinion about the matter.

What is your best choice? Tape On or Bonding a Hair Piece?

What is your best choice? Tape On or Bonding a Hair Piece?

With so many products out there to choose from it is hard to decide which is the best hair loss solution. Mother Nature changes her mood every day and you shouldn’t have to struggle with decisions such as that.

Since the hot and humid summer days are upon us people tend to perspire more than usual. It is during these days that having a hair replacement held on with tape is ideal, you can still enjoy most of your regular activities without worrying that the hair piece will fall off. The tape is made form two-way adhesive, strong and hypo-allergenic material. A custom made hair piece designed specifically for you can be ventilated, this allows your scalp to“breath”. You also have the option of taking the hair replacement system off in order to clean your scalp whenever necessary. The amount of tape needed varies depending on how much you perspire and the activities involved in your everyday life. A single piece can be used for a couple days or changed daily.

                                                           

Bonding is Semi-permanent which means it gets glued on for a relatively long time(1month to 3 months) without the option of taking the system off. There are both good and bad aspects associated with this method of hair replacement attachment. You don’t have to worry about your hair piece coming off in water, or about applying tape daily or every other day. The flaw in this becomes that because the piece is wore 24/7 its lifespan is very short. This leads to expensive routine visits to hair loss professional so that the hair replacement system can be removed/replaced and clean. Not giving the scalp enough breathing room can cause more damage to the hair that is left over and trying to grow. This is also very unsanitary resulting in unpleasant odor, as well as a collection of dead skins and oils underneath the piece. For some people leaving the hairpiece on without taking it off can also cause irritated skin and cause open cuts on scalp.

I prefer tape-on because it is simpler, sanitary, and more affordable. My clients enjoy this easier way of maintenance with fewer problems. I can show each individual how to switch tape on the hair loss system to make the process faster by the minute and EASIER for each and every individual. Being you have male pattern baldness, or hair loss from a medical condition (alopecia, chemotherapy), it is best to research your options and choose the right hair replacement system for you. Tape on and bonding each have its own pros and cons, but in the end it is always up to you.

Thank You,

Summer is here, time to look great

With summer here people tend to be more self-conscious about their looks. With that in mind we live in a world where good looks and a good set of healthy hair is beautiful. In the world of hairpieces the same motto applies. Researching options and finding the right solution to give you that self esteem boost will not only improve your attitude but will give you an aura and everybody will be able to sense it. In my profession clients ask me plenty of questions about the right hair loss solution from stress causing male pattern baldness to a medical condition, such as chemotherapy. Where there is a will there is a way, and I can make that way happen.

The best method for you will be chosen with the right research, being surgical or non-surgical. Non-surgical hair replacement is non invasive, so usually is pain free, compared to surgical where “surgery” is needed. Surgical is also not always guaranteed that the balding area will take, it is also expensive, painful and time consuming. Non surgical is the safest way in restoring your natural hair. Although some companies pride in stock pieces with low prices, I, David Hansen, pride myself in the custom made hair pieces that are specifically molded to fit a clients head that are worth the money in the long run.

Having a background and business of well over 50 years, a non surgical hair piece made with my help, would be the most resourceful and most stress free way to go. David Hansen offers the highest quality, undetectable hair system that are custom made for every individual to fit their everyday needs.

Thank you,

David Hansen

Pain Free Hair Pieces Compared to Micrografts

Pain Free Hair Pieces Compared to Micrografts

There are plenty of causes for losing of hair and balding, be it hereditary baldness or from a medical illness or treatment (alopecia, chemotherapy, etc) but there are only a few solutions to treat it. A person might choose the medical treatment and undergo the pain of dealing with the incisions of the cutting and placing of the hairs and then have to deal with the healing time period known as getting a micrograft

               

A better solution is to wear a custom made hair piece specifically made to your specifications. I would give you the option of a full cap or partial hair piece fit to your needs. This hair system gives you natural look to the best hair replacement method in Chicago without the pain.
