Skin Hair Systems

The answer is NO! Most thin skin hair systems are securely attached with strong, water-resistant adhesive. This makes certain that they remain in place during daily activities like running, swimming, and even skydiving. If someone pulls them roughly, they may experience damage.

 

Compare to some other types of hair systems, such as lace-based or mono-based systems, thin skin systems are not breathable due to the nature of the transparent polyurethane material used in the base.

 

But like our UTS series products, which use 0.02mm or 0.03mm ultra thin skin, there is a certain level of breathability, but not to the extent of being breathable.

 

Thin skin hair systems for men can be attached using glue, tape, or clips. Glued or taped systems can last up to a month or more without deep cleaning. Want to take off your hair unit every day or want to wear it for a limited time? Clip-on hair patches will work best for you.

 

Consider these factors if you want your thin skin hair unit - whether poly or ultra thin - to last longer:

 

- Use a wide-toothed comb or boar bristle brush to comb the hair gently.

 

- Prevent matting and tangling by braiding before sleeping and avoiding.

 

- sleeping with wet hair (this tip for hair systems with long hair)

 

- Apply olive oil to dry ends to prevent breakage.

 

- Minimize exposure to saltwater and chlorine.

 

- Avoid chemical treatments that can irreparably damage the system.

 

Modern thin-skin hair systems are quite affordable but wearers should still take precautions to extend their lifespan:

 

- Shampoo regularly to maintain cleanliness and shine, eliminating dirt and odor.

 

- Prevent oxidation damage by wearing a hat or cap in hot weather to shield the system from sun exposure.

 

- Carefully detangle to avoid hair loss and minimize wear and tear.

 

- Clean the system periodically to prevent adhesive buildup, preserving its natural look.

 

- Consider rotating between multiple systems to reduce wear and prolong lifespan.

 

- Store the systems properly to protect them from dust and UV damage as they lack natural oil production for nourishment and repair.

Both tape and glue serve as effective adhesives for securing thin skin men's hairpieces. Tape, being a medical-grade adhesive, offers water resistance and is suitable for sensitive skin. It provides a strong hold that lasts, is easy to apply, and can be easily removed from the thin skin hair system.

 

Thin skin hair system tape is a popular choice among both beginners and experienced users. It is available in various strengths to suit different needs. While the strongest tape may not match the adhesive strength of glue, it effectively keeps the thin skin hair system in place without the messiness associated with glue application and removal.

 

Most men initially opt for stock hairpieces due to their wide availability, covering the needs of around 70% of users. Custom thin skin hair systems are preferred by those who have specific hair requirements such as curl, density, length, or color. So, that's totally your call to make!
