Tips for keeping your hairpiece in great shape during the summer

When the summer season arrives your hair replacement maintenance also has to change. Make sure you stay away from extended sun exposure as this causes the hair to oxidize. This gives the hair replacement an undesirable a yellowish tint. To slow down this process wear baseball caps when you know you are going to be out in the sun for a longer period of time. The baseball cap you buy should be 1-2 sizes larger. This prevents damage as well as bending in the hair replacement. Another good summer tip while dealing with hair replacement is to wash your scalp in the morning before applying the system. The increase in temperature causes the perspiration to increase making the tape less tacky, and decreases the overall cleanliness of the hair replacement.

Your insurance company may pick up your bill for your hairpiece purchase!

Did you know if you are someone who is dealing with alopecia, medical related balding or cancer related chemotherapy and/or radiation and need to wear a hair system, toupee, wig, or hairpiece, that your health insurance plan may cover the full cost.  You’ll be surprised to know that most insurance companies will cover between 80 - 100% of a “cranial prosthesis.”  Insurance companies are starting to realize the important role that cranial hair prosthesis plays in the life of someone suffering with the side effects of these medical conditions. 

Here are a few tips that may help you figure out if you can go through your insurance and be reimbursed for your new purchase.

- When filing your claim, be sure to refer to your hair system as a cranial hair prosthesis   

- Read over your policy and double check your coverage portion. 

  (Make sure your policy covers expenses for prosthesis or prosthetics)

- Request a prescription from your physician for your full or partial cranial prosthesis

- Check with your physician for details and referrals for proper specialists and procedures in the field

-Write a letter to your insurance company to clarify the necessity of your prosthesis

- Make sure you, your physician and your specialist fill out and sign all proper documents

- Be sure to keep personal copies of all your paperwork and invoices  

Good Luck & Good Looking!

Partial Hair Replacement Systems

Partial hair replacement systems are designed specifically to cover a small balding area. This would commonly be used by someone who started to notice balding in either the temples or the crown of the head. The partial hair replacement can be designed using both fine welded mono as well as injected skin base. This hair system may be bonded as well as taped on depending on preference. As your balding area gets larger your partial is going to bet bigger as well, until you no longer need it and can switch over to a full front lace or injected skin system. Partial hair replacement systems can be created in any shape any size to fit your specific needs, this also makes it a great option for individuals looking to cover a specific area due to an accident or an illness such as Alopecia Areata.
