Living well the fact of losing your hair


When a man starts to seriously lose his hair, the first thing is to accept it. Becoming bald is not catastrophic for a man. It may even become an asset.
Those who can afford it can choose the hair implants or wig.
Otherwise, he can already begin to see a stylist who will adapt the cutting of hair to baldness which will appear smaller. He can also give tips to add volume to hair.
The less hair a man has, the more the hair must be cut short. Let his hair grow to try to cover places without hair with a comb is simply disastrous.
When the hair is no longer sufficient, it is best to shave his head completely. Then he has to take care of his bald head and apply treatment.
