Hair plays a significant role in our life.
Another person's hair is one of the first characteristics
we notice upon meeting. Our own hair is one of the first
and last things we attend to before a meeting or a social
engagement. Hair disorder, especially when severe, often
profoundly affects the lives of those afflicted. Severe
hair loss evokes not only cosmetic concerns but may also
evoke feelings of vulnerability (nakedness), loss of self-esteem,
alterations in self-image, and, perhaps, even self-identity.
In 1992, researchers at Old Dominion University in Norfolk,
Virginia, surveyed 145 men, and found that 84 percent of
the balding men were preoccupied with their loss. They described
themselves as filled with self-consciousness, helplessness,
and envy of men with full heads of hair. Single bald men
and woman who had begun losing hair in their early twenties
were more likely to suffer from extremely low self-esteem.
Now you can start special ordering
wigs and
hair maintenance systems.
Ordering hair systems isn't
the end of the world. It's a new beginning, men reported
glancing in the mirror constantly at their new look and
didn't wear hats even in warm weather. The use of
hair maintenance systems
and special ordering wigs or
a custom hairpiece helps make it through their daily
lives with more confidence. For some it even sparked self-improvement
tactics like fiddling with their custom
hairpiece,
working out more, and dressing better. A
hair maintenance survey
result is shown in the following chart.

Stereotypes associated with baldness are not flattering,
special ordering wigs and
hairpieces is the answer A research back in 1971(2) had
been conducted to investigate how one person was perceived
by others can be influenced by quantity of scalp hair (regular,
balding, and bald) as well as color, length, and quality
of their hair maintenance.
Pictures of the same person were presented to 60 judges.
Differences in appearances of this person (i.e., experimental
conditions of regular, balding, and bald) were manipulated
through modifications made by a commercial artist for
hair maintenance. The results
revealed that the person with a regular quantity of
hair was rated as most handsome,
virile, strong, active, and sharp. The person with a balding
head of hair was rated as least potent, weak, dull, and
inactive, and the person with a bald head of hair was rated
as most unkind, bad, and ugly. So change that by
ordering hair systems or special ordering wigs.
Many other studies also show employment discrimination
based on a person's appearance.
Your life can benefit from
ordering hair systems.
Motivation to avoid baldness is not confined to this
century. In 1150 BC Egyptian men smear their pates with
fats from ibex, lions, crocodiles, serpents, geese, and
hippopotamuses, as special ordering wigs was
not an option at that time of course. In modern society,
this aversion is readily evident from the many available
remedies such as creams, hormones, vitamins, hairpieces,
ordering wigs, scalp reduction
and hair transplants. A government report in 1983 reveals
that over the past 9 years the FDA has overseen the investigation
of ingredients in about 300,000 products claimed to help
hair re-grow, none of them has any medical benefit, of course!
