Base Size

Base size is the size of the cap of a hair system. We roughly separate them into 4 types:

-Partial size: hair loss areas equals or is smaller than 4” x 4”.

-Regular size: hair loss area with size larger than 4”x 4” and up to 10”x 8” (or within 80 square inches of total area).

-Oversize (or larger size): hair loss area larger than 10” x 8” and up to 10” x 10”.

-Full cap: hair loss areas larger than 10” x 10”.

How to measure?

Follow the instructions below to measure a partial size, regular size or larger size:

Base Material

The truth is there are only four basic types of base materials and they are: Lace, Skin, Monofilament (Mono) and Silk. All the different bases you see are constructed with one or a combination of these four basic materials.

LACE BASE
Lace Base – Lace is soft, lightweight, delicate and totally breathable. There are two kinds of lace materials, Swiss lace and French lace. Swiss lace is the finest and most delicate and it needs to be handled carefully. French lace is stronger and more durable than Swiss lace. For a lace base, we usually use single knots in the front hairline and double knots elsewhere, which helps to create a natural hairline. If you exercise often, a lace base is your best choice as it is breathable. Typically, a lace base hair system can last 4-6 months with the correct care and maintenance.

SKIN
Skin – A skin base, as the name suggests, it looks and feels just like your own skin. The hair is injected, v-looped or knotted onto the base, to move just like your own hair would. Especially in the front area, the skin base can blend in with your skin seamlessly. The translucent material creates the ideal illusion that hair is growing directly from the scalp, giving you the most natural-looking appearance.

MONOFILAMENT BASE
Monofilament Base – A mono base is thicker and stronger than lace and skin and will certainly last longer. Monofilament base hair systems can last more than 6 months. They can carry medium thick hair like 120% or 130% density. This is suitable for those who are looking for pretty thick and lush hair and also want to save some money considering the long-time investment.

SILK TOP BASE
Silk Top Base – A silk top base creates the most natural and scalp looking hairline. Using a tri-layer system, when the hair is knotted, the knots are made below the silk concealed between the layers, the hair is then injected through the silk material making the knots 100% invisible, giving the illusion that the hair is growing out of your scalp. Even the silk top base has three layers, it is very breathable though. If you sweat a lot, work out frequently or live in a humid climate, it is a good option.

MIXED BASE
Mixed Base – You don’t need to be restricted to just the above 4 options. There are combinations. You can mix lace with skin, mono with skin, silk top with skin, and even silk top, skin and lace depending on your specific needs.

Choosing the right color for your hair system is very important. With the right color, the hair system can perfectly match with your existing hair.

Here are the two options and most popular ways to help you choose the best-matching color.

Option 1:

Use a certain amount of your own growing hair as a sample. This is the best option. Why? The answer is easy: Nothing beats natural. Your natural hair can allow us to match your true color graduation from the source! So we recommend that you should best take samples of 100-200 strands which are about 2-3" in length. It would be easier for us to analyze the color if you can provide more hair.

If your hair is the same color all over, please just provide one sample. However, if your hair is a different color in different areas (e.g. you have more gray in the sides), try to take samples from 3-6 areas:

-Front: At the hairline or bang area (if possible)

-Top: The front, top of your head (if possible)

-Crown: The back, top of your head (if possible)

-Temples: At the front most part of your hair on the sides

-Sides: Approximately 1-2" above the top of your ear

-Back: As close to the center of the back of your head as possible

NOTE: Please cut a sample from each area and label each one, informing us what part of the head it came from (e.g. front, back, sides, temples, top, crown, etc.).Please make sure the hair is clean. This is important because dirty hair will not show its true color.

Sending in a sample of your own growing hair is the best option and we strongly recommend this. Some clients would prefer photos, but photos don’t reflect the real color of your hair. There’s always a color difference between the computer monitor can display and your original hair tone.

Option 2:

Use our color ring or color swatch to choose the most suitable color.

If you don’t like the idea of providing a sample, we suggest you to look our color chart for a reference and choose the best match for you.

There are more than 40 color swatches included in our color ring. You can pick the closest four or six color swatches from our color ring to eliminate and finally decide on the one that best matches your own growing hair.

Please double check the colors that you choose in sunlight, natural daylight and artificial light. Make sure the one you choose is the best choice.

After you have selected your color, please return the chart with your order details and we will refund or credit this amount towards your purchase.

NOTE: Color ring from any other hair replacement company won’t work for our hair system. Different companies have different codes or colors for hair system. So if you insist to use a color chart for help, please be sure to use Hairbro color ring.

IMPORTANT REMINDER: ( We can’t guarantee that the color you see is the 100% same as the actual color that the hair system has. Because it greatly depends on your monitor display. To improve accuracy we highly recommend you send in a sample of your hair.)

• When you are selecting a perfect hair system, the right front Contour shape is a factor that you should never overlook. Increase with age, your front hair contour gradually changes. Having a disproportionate frontal hairline recession (for your age or hair style) is a common indication that you might be wearing a hair system. But with a right front contour shape, people can hardly tell that you are wearing one.

  Ccontour shape is categorized into six types which are A, AA, B, BB, C, and CC. Contour C is a almost straight hairline being similar to that of a young man in his 20’s or 30’s, while Contour AA is similar to that of a man in his 40’s to 50’s.

  To make sure that your hair system contour can be well secured, we provide you with the corresponding contour tapes.

There are many factors that affect the density. Follow the below tips and learn to choose the right density.

Age

Effect	Density	Age
Extra Light	50%	Over 60
Light	80%	46-60
Light to Medium	100%	25-45
Medium	130%	Up to 25
Medium to Heavy	150%	Up to 20
Heavy	180%	Very few

Consider the above chart only as a reference to the most appropriate density for your age. It doesn’t necessarily apply to everyone. Your existing hair amount is also a very important factor to consider when choosing the hair density.

The Density of Existing Hair

For people who are experiencing male pattern baldness, it is quite common to see they have no hair on the top of the head but still have thick hair on the sides. In this case, you can choose a density that will blend in with your existing hair.

Base Type

Different bases carry different amounts of hair. The most delicate lace base and ultra thin skin base can only hold a light to medium light density, whereas a mono or a silk base can hold a medium to heavy density hair. If you have a very active lifestyle, a lace base is a good option for you. Lace bases hold a medium light density of 90% best. If you need a higher density, then the delicate lace material is not ideal. Instead you can opt for a combined base of lace and skin which can carry a higher density.
