The best headwear for long term hair loss.

How to manage long term hair loss

Most women seek to understand the cause of their hair loss through their doctor and or dermatologist and look for treatment plans if possible.

Headwear (and there are many different types including beanies, wigs and scarves) can help with the day to day management of hair loss and the coming and going of patchy hair loss.

Not just Alopecia, there are many different medical conditions which can cause hair loss - this could range from a small bald spot to complete hair loss on the head.

Headwear can help everybody – from keeping your head protected from the sun (the scalp is particularly sensitive to the sun once bare of hair), to keeping what hair you have in place on a windy day. It can also keep your head dry if you are using colouring powders to mask bald spots.

Many hats are only designed to sit half way down the head. If you take baseball caps or baker boy caps for example, these would leave a 5-6 cm strip exposed at the back of your head.  Layering with a Bold Beanie eliminates this problem and lets you wear a hat to best effect i.e so that it looks ‘normal’, and not as if it is trying to conceal something.
