Frequently Asked Questions...
Baldness affects both men and women although
it is more obvious in men. By the age of 25, 25% of
men have lost a certain amount of their hair and by
the age of 50 this proportion rises to around 50%.
Many men however, accept with reluctance that it will
not happen in the same way as maybe it did with their
older brothers or fathers - although the hair loss
could be genetically from the mothers side.
Baldness in men usually starts at the front hairline
or at the crown area. In these areas the hair follicles
of sufferers are genetically pre-programmed to revert
from producing terminal hairs to producing vellus-like
hairs. The growth phase of the hair (anagen) becomes
shorter and shorter with a greater proportion of hairs
in the shedding (telogen) phase.
This change happens under the influence of male hormones
(androgens) and can begin as early as the time of
puberty or soon after, when androgen production in
the body reaches a peak.
It has been proven over the years that the best time
to enquire about hair replacement is when you notice
your hair at the crown or hairline is disappearing.
This is where NU-STYLE NORTH WEST
is unique in being able to specially design a hair
system, which initially replaces the start of your
hair loss and as the hair loss continues the hair
system will increase, so nobody will ever see your
gradual hair loss.

ANSWERS:
01) The T.H.S. System of
hair replacement is probably best described as applying
a removable 'second skin' using colour matched hair
which is either natural or synthetic.
02) The 'second skin' technique
(which is what we at NU-STYLE NORTH WEST specialise
in) does not hurt at all - surgical hair transplantation
on the other hand can be sore for a while after each
session.
03) The 'second skin' process involves
a removable, extremely thin microporous base material
which has colour-matched hair applied to it to complement
the area being covered. This is placed on to the area
with adhesive and styled to match. As your hair continues
to thin, a larger base is made to fit.
04) You can do all the things
you do now, including showering afterwards. The T.H.S.
System will be extremely secure. You can pull it,
shampoo it, blow-wave it - in fact it becomes a part
of you.
05) Only as it does now. The
micro-porous base allows your skin to "breathe" thus
maintaining your style and comfort.
06) The T.H.S. system involves
each hair being individually inserted by hand and
the specially designed hairlines use a base material
that is manufactured so that your scalp colour shows
through thus helping disguise the application. This
system looks incredibly natural even at close examination.
07) Yes 100%. The hair is professionally
colour matched to the tones of your own hair.
08) The choice is yours, we use
both human hair or one of the incredibly natural looking
and styleable synthetic fibre alternatives that we
have readily available.
09) We can't think of a better
time to change your image.
10) As with your own hair you
stand less chance of sunburn as the hair formes a
partial barrier
to the sun. With a hairpiece the added barrier is
formed by the base material and extra hair.
However, no known trials exist to quantify the possible
reduction of the sun's effects in this
way so, until then, you should still take the utmost
care!
11) Nu-Style North West have always
maintained high quality at competitive prices. We
feel sure you would be surprised at the cost and be
delighted with your new hair.
