Hey everyone. I'm in my 30s, been wearing for almost 10 years now. For the record, I am a Norwood 7.
I have gotten to the point in my life where I am no longer comfortable wearing the piece. The cost, maintenance, and also people finding out that I'm wearing is mentally exhausting at this point. Each new unit is costing me around $650+ with maintenance and I have considered taking the plunge to shave it all off and eventually go with SMP (scalp micro pigmentation).
Basically, I am looking for a method to "transition" from having a decent amount of hair to thinning hair. I know this will take some time, but I don't want to just shave it all off and make it obvious that I never had hair to begin with and I was wearing this whole time. What I'd like to do is wear a piece that is showing my hair thinning and gradually going bald (I am ok wearing for another year, maybe two if I have to). I was really hoping some of you guys can help provide some advice on this...
Are there specific pieces that are much thinner in terms of hair density and what would be the best method from your guys' experience?
I know some people will say just to shave it all off and get it over with, but I would much rather go the route of "balding" or "thinning" first. Regardless, all opinions are welcome. I appreciate everyone's feedback, we're all in this together.
