DENSITY – CUSTOM ORDERS
Density is not exact. It will vary a bit up or down from unit to unit.
Comment / serious advice: Usually when a hairpiece appears unnatural it is because the bald wearer has too much density for the age of his face. It is tempting to want more hair when you have suffered hair-loss, but lighter is always more realistic and has lower potential for embarrassment.
| – | XL | Extra-Light | Senior density. Shows scalp. Will expose tapes if lace. |
| MATURE | XL-L | Extra-Light to Light | Less transparency than XL. |
| NORMAL | L | Light | Realistic good full coverage. Perfect for most men with hair loss. |
| YOUTH/WOMAN | L-LM | Light to Medium-Light | Scalp fully hidden. Full dense coverage in all situations. Top seller. |
| – | LM | Medium-Light | Too heavy for most men. Natural look for women and children. |
| – | LM-M* | Medium-Light to Medium | Far too heavy on most men. Okay for women and children. |
Requests for density higher than medium may not be accepted by the factory. *LM-M and M density carry a surcharge due to the high cost of hair and all the extra weight of hair needed.
- We no longer offer different density in different head zones. (Custom ordering)
- Density can vary a bit up or down. Hand-made human-made, hairpieces and wigs always vary a little.
- We can advise on density based on a clear photo of you or a model. (Custom ordering)
- The thin knotless polyskin membranes have a maximum density of medium-light. (Custom ordering)
About density and base materials:
- C1 (SFS Super Fine Shanghai lace) is currently unavailable except in stock units.
- Normal Shanghai lace (also called Swiss lace) is best for density up to LM (medium-light) and no higher.
- C5 Paris lace (also called French lace) is better for density higher than LM (medium-light).
- C2 0.03 mm Membrane (also called NG) is best for density up to LM (medium-light). It is formed from liquid for every hairpiece and it is made thinner when the density is lower. 0.03 mm membrane may be thicker when it is supporting medium-light density than when it only has to support extra-light density.
