Frequently Asked Questions About Non-Surgical Hair Replacement
1. What is non-surgical hair replacement? Non-surgical hair replacement is a hair loss treatment that restores one's hair without the need for surgery. It involves attaching a hair unit (also called a hair system or hair piece) to your existing hair or scalp using various techniques, such as a medical grade adhesive, medical grade tape, clips, links, or micro-links. All are safe and pain-free.
2. How does Thursday’s develop and produce hair units or hair systems? Our non-surgical hair units are designed and created using human hair. Thursday’s will evaluate the extent of your hair loss, the direction of growth, and the shape of the hairline needed. Next, we perform a complete hair analysis to match your hair's exact color, density, texture, and curl. Your hair system is then hand-crafted, strand by strand, using only the finest human hair for a result that is virtually undetectable. Your hair will look like it is growing right from your scalp. By the way, we’ve been doing this since 2002!
3. What are the benefits of non-surgical hair restoration? It is non-invasive and painless (unlike hair plug transplants), instant results (unlike surgical options), minimal downtime (unlike surgery and recovery), customizable to match your desired look, cost-effective (non-surgical solutions are often more affordable than hair plugs and hair plug transplants), versatile (you can play sports, swim, bike, shower, sweat, put on a helmet), natural appearance (Thursday’s modern techniques can create a highly natural-looking result, blending seamlessly with your existing hair), flexibility (try new hairstyles and go longer or shorter), and watch what it does for your confidence! A full head of hair can significantly improve your self-esteem and confidence.
