One of the first things people will notice about you is your hair. Many believe that having awesome hair is essential if they want to appear appealing and make a good first impression. When baldness strikes you (it often hits you out of nowhere), it can be a humiliating experience. It has left many people feeling low in self-esteem. If that’s you, you are not alone!

Among men, the most common bald spot is the crown area. When that happens, men start visiting doctors, barbers, and hairstylists to hide this area and regain self-esteem. If you don’t have the budget for expensive treatments, let us introduce you to a few techniques that can help cover this area.

 

Let’s begin shall we:

Use a Volumizer

Several volumizing solutions are available on the market that acts like fairy dust to fix hair thinning and bald spots. Some volumizers penetrate deeply into the hair fiber and are electrostatically charged, allowing them to adhere to the hair and provide the illusion of a full head of hair. They’ve been around for a long time and have a lot of success in the market since they provide an immediate solution. Give them a try to fix the hair loss on the crown region.

Sprinkle some of the product on your hair around the bald area. Do it gently. The fibres will spread out and fill in the gaps. If you don’t choose the appropriate color, the spot will stick out. Therefore, choose the color wisely otherwise, anyone could guess that you are wearing something artificial.

The volumizer will also help keep your crown out of the field of vision of everyone you meet if you are extremely tall.

 

Wear a Crown Toupee

A crown toupee is one of those hairpieces that can cover up your imperfection just like that. If you are able to find the right color, it will prove to be an instant fix. It’s not as heavy as a full wig and it can blend in with natural hair.

Once you have found the right crown toupee for men, the next big task is to wear it the right way. These simple steps explain how it’s done:

1. Wash your hair and then dry them completely
2. Style them or comb them like you normally do.
3. Place the crown toupee on top of your head
4. Attach it to your hair
5. Fix your hair a bit and you are ready to go.

Sometimes, you are unable to find a toupee that matches the way you style your hair. In that case, all you have to do is visit the salon and ask the barber to do some tweaks so that the toupee adjusts and blends in with your natural hair.

This is going to give you a newfound confidence!

Get a Tattoo

I hear you, it’s something weird but we are living in the modern age where many weird things have turned into fashion! So why not try this one out as well.

Plus, Tattoos are trendy these days. Why get a stop on your arms when you may have tattoos all over your body? Tattoo scalp micropigmentation is a thing these days. It can give a luscious appearance to bald areas. It involves the use of microscopic spots of color to produce the illusion of natural-looking hair stubble. Colors will be matched to your natural hair color to ensure that it blends in seamlessly with the rest of your look.

 

Comb Your Hair Over

Comb-overs can help hide bald areas well. If it’s a wide area, they tend to look odd. Combing your hair over and ensuring everything looks natural is a time-consuming job.

But if you are able to do everything right, they work like a charm and can really disguise the bald patch. Be careful, they can be blown by the wind and then everyone will know that you have a bald spot on your crown.

If it’s a small bold spot, this trick is definitely going to work for you. Use the comb to hide the area and make sure you add a generous amount of hair spray to fix everything. Once you are done and your hair is settled, don’t comb your hair again otherwise this will ruin everything!

 

Go Complete Bald

You will find some people have chosen to go completely bald because they can’t afford expensive treatments or they don’t want to get into the fuss of wearing a crown toupee for men.

If that’s you, going completely bald is an option as well. Some hairstylists and hairdressers believe there is no use hiding bald spots. Eventually, everyone gets bald spots. It’s normal so why not embrace this new part of your identity with open arms?

Don’t want to go completely bald? Then simply get a cut that is short and textured for anything that covers up the fact that you are bald. Some hairstylists also recommend making your hair as short as possible without really exposing your scalp so this is something you might want to consider as well. Instead of a complete chop, you can also opt for a blunt cut.

 

Try Hair Regrowth Products

While this may not work for everyone, but you can always give it a go. You never know your hair starts growing back.

Numerous shampoos and hair care products are available these days that can regrow hair and solve thinning hair issues. For their capacity to improve hair, some of these items are backed by scientific study as well. You might have to do some research in order to find out which product would work for your hair’s situation. Do check out reviews and then give it a final go.

 

Summing Up

Among these options to hide bald spots at the crown, the simplest one is to buy a crown toupee for men. It’s a cheaper alternative and it does a great job in hiding the imperfection.
