DENSITY GUIDE
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.
