Toupee knowledge Chapter.1

Toupee has a very long history. For years, jokes and comedy routines frequently targeted the hairpieces, because back in the early days, the design of toupees were too fake, so it become very detectable even to some casual observers. Because of this problem.,Today many of partial hairpieces are called units, hair systems, or a type of hair extensions, though they all serve the same purpose.

Who should wear a toupee?
Many people maybe confused about if they should where a toupee or a wig. Well, many people suffer from hair loss problem, it is called “alopecia".or lose your hair as a result of chemotherapy.
These two problem may directly cause your baldness. So people that suffer hair loss problem may be disheartend. A toupee may be a better choice if the hair loss is minimal, and it can be used in conjunction with different products and treatments while hair is being restored.

After you read the above, I think you might almost figure it out what a toupee really is, and you should wear it or not. So if you think that you should wear one. Then it is very important for you to know how to order a toupee which can perfectly suits you.

The base( or cap) will be in contact with the wearer’s head, so the base is called the foundation of a toupee. And there are many different base materials for wearer to choose. So when you order a toupee, Make sure to know what your base material should be.

Here i am going to list some of my own toupee base collections for anyone that are interested in getting a toupee:

VT001:

As you can see the VT001 base is a cut- away or cut-down base.This base is a Fine mono filament,top and crown.with PU-Coated around the perimeter. It also has a soft see-through skin front tab.This base is ordered standard 7"x10" and can be cutdown to 6"x9" or 5"x8".Makes a very good tape on base and ca be attacthed by graft or bond.Note: If used as a permanent attachement,this base with its extra PU gives more area to bond as well as the back PU stops the "folding over"that sometimes occurs on the back of the clients head.Probably one of the more durable of the smooth designs.







VT002:

This base is a smooth mono with PU with silk perimeter and PU front tab just behind the 1" swiss lace tab area. Swiss lace has cross stitching to help hold the contour and stop ripping if it occurs. This base is designed for permenent attachment and should be sold in multiples of 3 or more per year. with great natural hairlines especially with bleached knots.The "Swiss lace front" is the most popular and the most natural of the lace front designed bases.

VT003:

This base is much like the VT002 above and is in every way except is has the 1"fine welded mono(stiff lace,P-Lace) front .The P-Lace front is a little more unstable than the swiss lace.It dose not and CANNOT have the cross stitching and if it starts to rip.Then it goes all the way to the PU line. However this makes a very good hairline and should be ordered with bleached knots. This base is designed for permanet attachment and should be sold in multiples of 3 or more per year.

More base samples will be shown on this blog. To be continued.
