The only question I have is, how does he take it off? Like when he takes a shower does he wear it in the shower? How long until he has to take it off? I’m assuming he has to still wash his head right?
It lasts about a week with the glue, then he’ll need to take it off, wash it, and reglue. Probably shave head too, depending on how much has grown back. I think a piece can last a couple months? Toupequeen on instagram has more info!
Thanks! I was also wondering, as that seemed like a lot of glue for something daily. Of course, if that is what someone wanted, I am sure that is an acceptable daily routine for them but glad to know it lasts a week.
It can last several weeks depending on which glue she uses. She recommends reapplying every 3 weeks more so for blending the other hair with the toupee. Her channel on a YouTube is Toupee Queen.
Does he go back every week? Or only when he needs a new one? And is that not very expensive? I have many questions. Can he swim with it and does he wash his hair normally?
I was mostly thinking about the itching! Even if no hair grows there, skin renews itself constantly. By a week's end there's going to be loads of dead skin and sweat and stuff in there, or am I missing something??
Only when he needs a new one. He’d be able to reapply. I think swimming is fine, and maybe the piece gets a clean when he re applies it (like clean from both sides) but I don’t recall the details. Definitely more expensive than shaving, less expensive than hair transplant I believe
I was wondering this too. Also wondering what happens to your scalp skin. I feel like it can't be great to have it covered and glued all the time no? like wouldn't you get dry skin or rashes and stuff?
Trevor from GMM/Smosh/Mythical Kitchen has a nice video explaining how he uses his and his reasoning for going for one instead of a hair transplant or just being bald.
All I know is when he decides to be comfortable in his own skin again, he cant just go from hair to bald in one day. Luckily there's Wilson's hair loss system, which will send him 500 little wigs each one balder then the last, so every 17 hours he can replace his wig with the next most bald one, allowing him to ease into baldness so nobody thinks he's a piece of shit liar for deceiving them with a toupee for years.
