Hair Replacement

Here at the Hair Replacement Specialists we offer two main types of restoration techniques. One is the master parting system and the second is the Volumizer system. Both systems are applied and secured in place using your own hair, however thin.

For clients who suffer from Alopecia Totalis and Clients who have lost hair due to Chemotherapy or medical treatments, or a severe loss of hair around the front hairline, we also offer lace front wigs, which give a natural hairline appearance.

The parting system is ideal for those suffering from hair loss or thinning hair at the top area of the scalp. The master parting system would allow the wearer to have the freedom of their own hair throughout the rest of the head, whilst securely and comfortably wearing the fixed parting.

The parting piece is totally breathable to allow air flow to reach your scalp underneath the piece. This also allows for your scalp to be easily dried after washing.

The benefit of the parting is that it is removed during a maintenance appointment, at which point the hair is washed and treated seperately whilst your own hair and scalp are washed and gently massaged to help stimulate the hair follicles before the piece is re-fitted. A maintenance service should be carried out every 6 weeks and we charge only a small fee for this service, to help maintain the life of your hair replacement system.

The Volumizer system is ideal for clients suffering from hair loss and thinning hair throughout the whole of the scalp area. The Volumizer system is made exactly to the clients head size and shape using a soft and gentle mesh type material, which is then shaped and secured to fit the wearer exactly. Once the mesh base has been created, we then add hair to the mesh base giving the appearance of natural hair.

The Volumizer system is totally breathable allowing air flow to the scalp and allowing you to dry the scalp easily after washing.

This type of system would be fixed for 6 months and the maintenance procedure (recommended every 6 weeks) would involve tightening the many connections made using your own hair that were used to secure the system in place initially. As your hair continues to grow the volumizer may seem a little loose at the 6 week point as the connections of your own hair holding the system in place, have effectively grown away from the scalp. For a small fee we re-tighten every single connection throughout the whole system to help maintain the life and security of your replacement system.

Prices for our hair replacement services rely on the needs and requirements of each individual client which we assess and advise during a consultation.

We are happy to estimate a guide price if enquirers wish to send us an image of their hair, however these may not be accurate and we must carry out a face to face consultation to confirm an accurate cost. Please check our Consultations page for further details.

"Even at the age of 82, one's appearance is very important and no woman feels well groomed if her hair lets her down.
When my mothers hair had been badly affected during a period of ill health, she felt dejected and anti-social. After a couple of visits to Additional Lengths, this situation was completely reversed.
The discreet hair piece made her look younger and gave her greater confidence.It was very easy to manage and completely realistic.
She has now returned to dancing 3 times a week and she is always out and about. If anyone has a similar problem, I would have no reservations whatsoever in recommending this solution.
Even though the thought of that first visit might be daunting the staff are highly skilled and supportive professionals and you will not feel out of place or embarrassed.
