Sadly, many people still have an adverse emotion when they think about hair restoration and solutions for missing hair. This adverse reputation most likely comes from the history of poor hair replacement methods used in the past. Think about history books filled with pictures of men (and women) with wigs standing in a courtroom.

Do you recall Thaddeus Stevens and his famous offer of his wig to the admiring woman who requested a lock of his hair? The woman wanted to remember Thaddeus by keep a lock of his hair, and instead, Stevens took off his wig and handed it to her saying, “Here madam, you may have it all.”

In the 1950’s it was estimated that 350,000 men wore wigs and in the 70s it’s estimated that 2.5 million men wore hairpieces or toupees. Toupees are small hairpieces that are designed to cover partial baldness. The problem with the toupee is that it is fairly obvious to see that you’re trying to cover something.
