Hair Bonding/Weaving |
Some of the most profound advancements have taken place in the non-surgical sector. Due to the limitations of current drugs and surgery, a full natural looking head of hair can be best achieved through this process. Commonly accepted, this process has been embraced extensively in the general population. To date, it is the only method which can give the appearance of a full head of hair.
How is it done ?
The finest human hair is selected to match your own hair with three very important characteristics involved: colour, density and wave or curl. These qualities are crucial in the satisfaction of a client. Since every hair style is different and expectations vary from person to person, a consultation is key in determining what is needed to make your appearance the best it can be. Some clients may just want to look like they did a few years ago while others may want an entirely different look than what they are accustomed to.
The first step is to take hair samples to match hair colour and wave. Data is then complied to establish what look the client desires. Some of the criteria used to determine a great look is age, facial structure and shape of the head. Also, hair density should be consistent with the age and demeanour of the client.
The new head of hair is then reconstructed by closely observing how hair actually grows from the scalp. Based on each client, individual notes are taken as to the direction the hair is currently growing from the scalp and how the client wants to comb their hair.
Then follicle by follicle, a new head of hair is created by hand. Because of the intricate nature of making your new hair look like your own, each head of hair is created one follicle at a time. A spiralling crown and a virtually undetectable frontal hairline is often created to ensure a realistic outcome. Subsequently, most of the work is done when the client isn’t there. The hair is quality checked and prepared in advance so on the day of application, in most instances, the process can be completed in 90 minutes.
Because of this new technology and the fact that the hair is added one strand at a time, you can actually see your own scalp. This new hair and scalp technology is non-intrusive, completely porous and does not hinder hair growth nor does it harm follicle or scalp cells. At the National Research Centre, the process has been put through years of rigorous testing in extreme activities and conditions. So, if you like to swim, jog, or get rough, you can feel comfortable in knowing that your new hair is part of you.
The best part of this process is the versatility! Unlike when a person starts losing hair, you’re not confined to one hair style. With this method you can change your hair style any time. You can have long hair, short hair, combed forward or back. The variations are limitless. In most cases, clients are given the opportunity to try different looks. They can simply bring in pictures of when they were younger and had a full head of hair or styles that they like from magazines.

| FAQ |
Why is this method better than surgery ?
Although transplants have improved from bulky and obvious plugs to micro-grafts there are still limitations due to lack of donor area.
Since the hair is taken in strips from the back of the head, cut into small grafts and reinserted to the front you can’t get the density that is needed to make your hair line look natural. It is simply like half of an apple pie sitting on the table. No matter how thin you slice that pie and move around the pieces, you still have half a pie! Even if you are young and have a lot of your own hair, as you mature your hair will continue to thin leaving the transplanted material more obvious. With an estimated thousand hairs per square inch on a healthy scalp - you do the maths. The best group to point this out is Hollywood. It is no surprise that people like Elton John, Burt Reynolds, Sean Connery, William Shatner, Michael Keaton, Chuck Norris and a cast of others have opted for non-surgical options. These are some of the wealthiest people in America who have access to the best doctors, yet they were well informed and made a realistic decision. I’m older and don’t need a lot of hair. I just want to look my real age. The great thing about HairWeaving and Bonding is you can have as much or as little hair as you want. For older clients we create recession, thinner density and perhaps grey hair percentages consistent with your existing hair. We want to make you look great, no matter what your age. During the initial steps in reconstructing your hair, we take careful note of your greying patterns, frontal hair lines and ask for detailed information about your lifestyle and how you envisage yourself.
Is this real hair and will I be able to wash and style it like when I had a lot more hair?
Yes. We use the finest real human hair because there is no substitute! Because the Hair Weaving/Bonding process uses real human hair, you can shampoo and condition, style it and even use gel or mousse to get that style you’ve always wanted. When you get out of the shower, you can comb your hair effortlessly and shape it any way you want.
I’m only 26 and like to play sports and go swimming. Should this concern me?
No. Because we have been perfecting Hair Repalcement for a number of years, we focused on making the process for very active individuals. Because this method is non-intrusive and does not hinder or harm your scalp or existing hair, sweating or swimming is not a problem. Matter of fact, you can actually see your own scalp wherever you part the hair.
My hair is unique. It’s red and very curly. Can you do hair like this?
Yes. We also specialise in hair from every ethnic background and every nationality. Whether your hair is thick and black, afro, or you have salt and pepper grey, we can recreate just about any hair colour. Hair is our business and we’ve been doing it for a long time.
I am completely bald on top and I don’t want the change to be drastic. What can I do?
The great thing about this process is how natural it looks, but more importantly, we can make it look like your hair is growing back progressively. The Hair Weaving/Bonding process can be done in steps over time. We can start in the crown area and increase density over time. Although most people just go for the gold, this option is available. Also many clients begin to grow facial hair before they go with the process and then shave after it is completed. It is amazing how people notice you look good, but can’t put their finger on it. This process looks so natural, you too will forget what you used to look like without hair.
How do you do it and how long does it take?
The Hair Weaving/Bonding process is unique in that we match your hair with other human hair based on colour, wave or curl and density. Then follicle by follicle, we reconstruct your new head of hair based on these parameters to give you a very natural looking outcome. Since this is a very labour intensive and time consuming process, most of the work is done while the client is not there. Then, on the big day, when we actually do the procedure, you can have your hair back in less than 2 hours.
What is the cost ?
It really depends on the amount of work that needs to be done. Because there is such a wide variety of hair loss it is necessary to see each individual. Matter of fact, if we feel you do not have enough hair loss, we’ll gladly provide you with tips on maintaining your current hair and a healthy scalp and have you visit us at a later date to see how your hair is progressing. You can also ask more detailed questions that you may not find in this brochure. If you feel that you need an answer right away, call the phone number on this brochure and we will try to be as accurate as possible. Our main concern is thatyou look good and maybe, tell a friend about us.
