Hair Replacement for Men

Hair loss, hair thinning and baldness are common amongst males. For many men, this can be quite an isolating experience. It can feel that the ageing process has moved up a gear, thus removing a man from his peer group.

nice-manWhile there are numerous causes of hair loss, a high proportion of adults will find it is genetic and can be traced back in the family. However, this isn’t always the case. There are conditions and health problems that cause hair to thin and may lead to alopecia. Don’t worry - we can provide you with experienced and skilled help.

At A&A Studios, our male directors offer discreet consultations that involve an in-depth analysis of the hair problem and a review of short-term and/or long-term solutions.

These solutions range from cover creams and spray products that give existing hair a denser, thicker appearance (suitable for hair thinning problems) to full hair replacement units. Given the rapid advances in hair technology, the days of conspicuous hair pieces are gone. At A&A Studios, we produce a variety of natural, custom-made hair replacement units that look just like the real thing…

Custom-made hair replacement units

All our custom-made units – or systems - are individually designed to suit you. We take care great in capturing the appropriate colour, hair density and finished style. We also believe that the art of hair replacement rests in the talent of the stylist who creates and delivers a final image in which you’re 100% confident…

Human Hair or Cyberhair®?

For many years, human hair systems have been the cornerstone of men’s hair replacement. However, thanks to advances in technology, A&A is now able to offer Cyberhair® .

A recent survey showed that 95% of wearers who converted to Cyberhair® were unlikely to return back to human or synthetic hair. The reasons customers prefer Cyberhair® are:

  • Ease of styling/grooming - the polyamide fibre of which Cyberhair® is made performs more naturally in windy and wet conditions and always keeps its style.

  • Durability - the majority of wearers following the correct aftercare procedures easily achieve 20 - 24 months of daily wear. Bonded systems also perform well and can provide 18 - 24 months of continuous wear.

  • Colour stability - compared to regular human hair products, the average Cyberhair® will fade less than half a shade over 12 months. This performance is five times better than any human hair product.

In Conclusion…

Without doubt, Cyberhair® has proven to be the most dependable replacement product ever produced. Furthermore, for bonded wearers, Cyberhair® is the only solution for uninterrupted wear of up to 24 months.

Those who have purchased the product once, go on to do so again… In fact, since the introduction of Cyberhair®, no new hair or fibres have been produced to equal or even compare to Cyberhair®’s unique performance capabilities.

A&A is the only stockist in Scotland to offer Cyberhair® products. If you’re interested in finding out more, call us now…

Men's Hair Replacement Questions

Four weeks on average - although some wearers return after three to five weeks. Durability also varies according to your type of skin and how active you are. We do recommend regular maintenance which is done either in our salon or at home (standard hairdressing charges apply).

This depends on the choice of system. For continuous wear, it is preferable to remove a certain amount of hair in the thinning area so that the replacement is properly integrated with your remaining hair.

It can be made for you in approximately 6 weeks. However, we sometimes prefer to undertake an ‘approval check’ where the base and colours which are returned from the factory are approved by you before the process begins. This action is often useful where there are difficult colours to match etc. If an approval check takes place, then a hair system is normally complete in 10 - 12 weeks.

If your choice is Cyberhair®, you should expect 18 - 24 months. Expect human hair to last around 9 - 12 months.

If it is designed properly, and accounts for a person’s age (e.g. age appropriate hair density), colouring and lifestyle, then a hair replacement should just look like a real head of hair. We also believe in educating and informing each wearer to get the best out of a hair replacement system. Wearers often find the most satisfying systems mirror their favourite or latest style.
