Will A Hair System Damage My Scalp

Hair Replacement Systems Will NOT Damage Your Hair or Scalp

There are several myths that surround the use of hair systems. One of these is that such systems can damage your hair and scalp. However, instead of looking at myths, it’s better to consider the facts behind the claims so that you can make more informed decisions for your hair going forward. In short, hair systems will not damage your hair and scalp. But this comes with a caveat and that is: your hair and scalp won’t get damaged if you take proper care of your hair system. In addition, there are several factors to consider when thinking about damage to hair and scalp as a result of wearing a hair system. We explore these in more detail below.

What Will Affect The Health Of My Hair System, Hair & Scalp?

Factors that can affect the health of your hair system, hair and scalp include:

How Your Hai Replacement System Is Attached To Your Skin - Different hair systems are applied in different ways. For example, some may be applied using wig glue or wig tape that adheres to the skin, whereas others are applied or interwoven with your hair underneath. In order for a hair system not to damage your hair or scalp, you need to ensure that you use the right products. In addition, you should be aware of your skin type (oily, dry, etc.) as well as the type of temperature your hair system is exposed to. For instance, humid temperatures can affect the adhesive on hair system glue and weaken it slightly, as can hot weather or heat styling tools. As such, it’s important to find the right attachment to help minimise and eliminate any risk to your skin or hair. 

The Type Of Adhesive Used - The type of adhesive that is used on your scalp will also play a critical role in whether your hair system can damage your scalp and hair. Once again, it’s crucial to be aware of your skin type and the temperatures your hair system is exposed to. In some cases, hair regrowth is shaved back frequently so that your hair system can be applied directly to the scalp. The bonding or adhesives used must be perfectly suited to your skin type. 

Whether A Scalp Protector Is Used - There are also scalp protectors to consider. There are both dab-on and spray-on products. Whichever of these you choose, ensure that you consult with a professional at a hair replacement salon in London to ensure that your scalp and hair do not get damaged as a result of wearing a hair system.
