"Wigs for Black Women"

If you’re in search of wigs for black women, there are several reasons you might be looking for one. It could be that you enjoy changing your style frequently and find it’s easier to do with wigs than with your own hair. You might also find your hair is difficult to manage to the point that you feel it’s easier to just throw a wig on it. Or maybe you’re suffering from hair loss. For the purposes of this article, we’ll be focusing primarily on hair loss. Hair loss sufferers  have several options available to them when it comes to dealing with hair loss, and wigs for black women are a popular one.

The Problem with Wigs for Black Women

Unfortunately, there are many side effects to wearing wigs that you may not know about. Wigs are designed for the general population and therefore aren’t customized, which means it’s almost impossible to find one that’s the perfect fit for your head. Because of this, it’s inevitable that you will find it slipping and sliding at some point and will have to check to make sure it’s in place. For maximum security you will need to find a wig with wig clips, but this extra security comes at the price of your hair’s health. For someone with thinning hair, wig clips only make the problem worse. The clips pull and tug on the hair, weakening the follicle and causing all sorts of damage, including accelerated hair loss. Many times, wigs for black women are not conducive to protecting the hair and exacerbate the hair loss situation.
 
To minimize damage, the wigs for black women must be taken off nightly and washed frequently. If you have a human hair wig, the hair needs to be washed, conditioned, and moisturized. You have little to no control over the cut and style to begin with, but if you have a synthetic wig, you cannot use heat-based tools to style it. Worse yet, it is very difficult for black women to find a wig with hair that looks natural. Few wigs for black women are tailored to match the hair textures of black women, and those that are are typically much more expensive.

If you’re willing to put in diligent, daily effort, your wig could last several months, but the average user finds themselves needing one within three months. Considering synthetic wigs for black women range from $35 to $300 and human hair wigs can cost upwards of $700, this can get expensive after awhile.  If you don’t like the idea of repeatedly spending hundreds of dollars on something that will further damage your hair, requires lots of upkeep, and provides a generic, potentially unnatural looking cut and style, there is a better option. 

The Best Solution

Farrell Hair Replacement specializes in hair loss solutions for black women. They offer what is known as ‘ultra-custom’ systems. These systems take up to 12 weeks to make as great pains are taken to match the client’s hair color and texture and to create a system that goes perfectly with the shape of the client’s head and face. Farrell Hair systems typically last 5 to 7 years, and require very little in the way of maintenance. They are so easy that even child clients of Farrell Hair Replacement can care for their systems on their own. The top advantage a Farrell system has over wigs for black women might be the fact that you can wear them while sleeping, exercising, or any other imaginable activity.

A Farrell Hair system is perfect for black women who are tired of living with hair loss and are ready for an economical solution that will give them more options than ever before. To learn more, visit the following link.

Richard Farrell of Farrell Hair Explains Hair Loss in African American Men

Hair Loss in African American Men
The many styling methods utilized on African American hair cause concern with men’s hair loss. African American men’s hair is very strong, fortunately so because the hair styles cause a great deal of stress on the hair and scalp.

The typical hair and hair follicles of those of African descent are tightly curled, thus producing hair that spirals. This hair also typically has a larger diameter than Caucasian hair and retains less water, thus its relative “kinkiness.” The many styling methods utilized on African American hair cause concern with hair loss. African American hair is very strong, fortunately so because African American hair styles cause a great deal of stress on the hair and scalp. Learn more about men’s hair loss: http://www.farrellhair.com/Men-Hair-Loss.aspx.

For example, using a hair pick to pick the hair up to a bushy style is a very damaging process due to the constant pulling causing stress on the hair shaft as well as the follicle. In fact, combing African American hair in general can create high stress on African American hair and cause breakage, which perpetuates dryness. Cornrowing and braiding are methods of hairstyling that pull the hair tight, and this can cause a great deal of stress on the hair and scalp resulting in hair loss. Braiding that result in the hair being pulled very tight can cause traumatic alopecia, a hair loss that is caused by trauma to the hair and scalp. Traumatic alopecia is usually reversible with proper hair care.




Hot oil conditioners are excellent for African American hair, as hot oil treatments contain proteins and polymers vital to repairing the hair cuticles. Hot oil treatments involve heating the oil and putting it into the hair and scalp, then covering the hair with a plastic cap to allow the oil to soak in. Follow the recommendations on the treatment you are using for the amount of time you should leave the treatment on the hair. This process can heal breakages and shinier stronger hair will be the result.

There is little that can be done to alleviate this syndrome without changing the typical hairstyles of African Americans. There is a catch-22 concerning relaxing African American hair, since combing natural African American hair causes so much stress and breakage of hair, while chemicals cause so much harm to the hair and scalp as well. There are a few hair-relaxing products on the market that use chemicals and are somewhat less harsh than sodium hydroxide (lye) or its popular equivalent in “no-lye” relaxers: calcium hydroxide (quicklime) mixed with guanidine carbonate. These products do not straighten hair in most instances the same way as commercial relaxers; however it does tend to make African American hair more manageable.

A Farrell "ultra-custom" hair replacement system flows and moves as if it were your own hair. You will look like you have your own natural hair back.
