5 Ways to Score That Natural Look With Any Hair System

Sep 23,2023

A hair system is arguably the best hair solution when dealing with balding or thinning hair. It could be a hair system for men and hair systems for women. Either way, they’re great confidence boosters and can help replace or enhance your natural hair.

However, they have to look natural too. With the variety of hair system replacement products available, it’s easy to get overwhelmed and end up with a system that looks like a pigeon’s nest.

Luckily, we’ve got your back. In this article, we’ll show you how to achieve a natural look with  hair systems. Let’s dive right in!

1. Good Hair Fibers

What’s a hair system without the hair? The key to a natural-looking hair system starts with the kind of hair fiber used in manufacturing it. There are three main types of hair system hair: Human, Remy, and Synthetic. Human hair feels and rests much more naturally than synthetic or Kanekalone hair. It is also customizable.

However, pure 100% Remy hair is a gamechanger. It combines the durability of synthetic hair with the flexibility of human hair. Remy hair is customizable and doesn't oxidize colors as fast as natural hair.

2. Choose a light base

Another key factor in creating a natural look with a hair system is the base. The base of a hair system is the material that holds up all that hair. There are different kinds of base materials and they each have their pros and cons.

Most newbie hair system users go for the polyurethane (PU) base. Since it is more durable and easy to work with. However, PU is not very natural-looking. It gives a rigid, squared look which isn’t great.

There are more realistic base materials. They include the lace and bio-skin bases, which are very light and almost transparent. The lace or bio skin base also rests flush against the forehead, giving the hairline a more natural look.

You have to be careful though. A thinner base means it’s more fragile.

3. Get your measurements right

What use is a good base and good hair without a good fit. Natural-looking materials are wasted on ill-fitting hair systems, therefore it’s necessary to take accurate measurements of your head or the area you wish to cover.

After finding your exact measurements, ensure that all other features you want are present, like length, density, style, and color. Tick all your boxes.

4. Install with care

Most systems are not exactly DIY, so if you own a salon, you’ll see a lot of hair system customers. Don’t panic if you aren’t an expert — just be professional and careful. Think, “what would natural hair of this color or density look like?”

Then proceed to apply your creativity to your hair system before you. Here are some tips to keep in mind during installation:

  • Align the hair system with the natural hairline as close as possible.
  • Don’t use too much adhesive
  • If you aren’t sure you can line up the hair system against the scalp, use a marker to guide you.
  • Use the recommended adhesive.

5. Style, trim, recommend

Creating a natural look with a hair system doesn’t end with installation. You have to shape and trim the hair to suit your customer and look natural too. Make sure to take extra time with the edges.

After trimming and styling your hair system, be sure to give your customer hair maintenance advice, so their hair can hold the natural look you’ve painstakingly created.

And that’s all folks! That’s how to achieve a natural look with your hair system. So, next time a client follows a “hair system near me” directory to your shop, be sure to follow these tips to give them the best natural-looking installation ever.
