this is a Toupee |
.
toupee, its a small artificial hairpiece use to cover
boldness, mostly used by men. Toupees
are essentially hairpieces which are used to cover patches of baldness. while
wigs are meant for the entire part, toupees are only meant
for specific portions. Also, while wigs are more
intricately designed in line with the desired hairstyle, a toupee maybe
nothing more than a patch of hair that simply covers the said portion which is
balding.
The size and spread of
toupees is in direct proportion with the extent of baldness; the
more bald one is, the more likely that a larger or widespread toupee would
be. And as far as genders go, traditionally men have been the once to use it
more due to the fact that more men than women tend to go bold, but off-late we
find that there is a veritable range of toupees meant for women as well. when we go back to the ancient Roman era, we find that there was
considerable humiliation or at least a feeling of disgrace associated with
being bald. It is this feeling of humiliation which drove demand for toupees in
a really big way. In fact even before the Romans, one can note that the
Egyptians too were prolific when it came to adoption of artificial means for
covering their bald parts. With toupees being a natural extension to be used.
Interestingly the first instance ever of an ancient toupee was found in a tomb
in Egypt.
And specific to the Romans, leaders like Julius Caesar
being strong proponents of toupees who used it himself to hide his balding
head. Over time, seeing their leader sporting a toupee, others followed suit
with vigor.

one of the ways to add extension in your hair is by adding it in tracks. Today i did a weave in my spear time using human hair extensions. the extensions that i used come in already fixed into the wefts and all i had to do was sow it into the hair. To do this i sections the hair in small sections and cornrow the hair using expressions hair (synthetic hair used to cornrow), then using a nodal and thread i sowed the the weave in to the cornrow. This was done to add length to the hair
