Hair work for men

When a man has gone bald due to hereditary hair loss, there are often two options. A hair transplant for men or a hair work for men. Are you hesitating between one of these two options? This is because a hair transplant has several advantages and disadvantages when compared to a hair work. The cost of a hair work for men can vary greatly.

Hair work costs

Hair work costs can vary greatly from one hair work to another. Costs depend on, among other things:

• The material from which the hair work is made. European real hair is usually more expensive than synthetic hair.
• The margin charged by a hair work specialist.
• Whether a portion of the hair work will be reimbursed.
• The type of attachment of the hair work.

In general, the cost of a hair work ranges from about €400 to sometimes more than €3,000. In general, the cost of a hair work increases as the hair grows longer. With men, of course, a hair work is often shorter than with women.

Difference between a hair work and a wig

The word "hair work" is often used interchangeably with the word "wig. In reality, however, the two are not the same. When referring to a hair work, it means a hairpiece made of real hair. There are different types of real hair. The hair types most often used are:

• European hair
• Asian hair

European hair is generally quite a bit more expensive than Asian hair. However, for people with a Western European appearance, European hair is often needed for the hair work. When Asian hair is used, it is sometimes too thick or of a different structure than one's own hair. Hair works of real hair are usually fitted for men suffering from hereditary hair loss or a hair disease.

When referring to a wig, it is usually a wig with synthetic hair. The prices of wigs are therefore lower than those of hairpieces because the cost of the synthetic hair is lower than that of real hair and the wigs are often made by machine. Wigs are usually fitted for men or women who have gone bald due to cancer treatment. This is because chemotherapy often causes temporary hair loss.

Hairpieces, on the other hand, are often knotted by hand. This is a very costly process.
