It depends on how severe it is but a
short hair cut is always a good option. When the hair is short on the side and back, it gives the illusion that is the hair is thicker and fuller at the top. Natural hair is recommended as opposed to straight or relaxed hair because straight hair does not add volume.

Hi , I am 57 lost all my hair at 21 and has never grown back I have Alopecia Areata an Auto immune disease .
It is very daunting and overwhelming when you lose your hair .
But just a thought when I go my wig specialist which is in Perth I see alot of women like yourself try a hair topper they look so real and not to expensive maybe you should have a try and see if they work for the lady’s are so welcoming and friendly and everyone is normally in the same boat with hairloss .

Hair loss can be so upsetting and while it can be caused by stress is always stressful. I have found keeping my hair in a shorter Bob style makes it look healthier and fuller. I would love to have long Lucious locks but it really seems to make my hair look even thinner.

Hairstyles you could Consider are :Side-parted styles: A deep side part can help to visually conceal thinning areas on the crown by directing your hair over them. Bangs: Side-swept bangs or curtain bangs can effectively camouflage thinning areas on the crown. Half-up, half-down styles: These versatile styles allow you to pull some hair back off your face while still keeping the majority of your hair down, minimizing tension on the hairline. Loose braids or twists: These styles keep hair off your neck and face while minimizing the risk of excessive pulling. Opt for loose styles that don’t put too much tension on the roots.

Don’t pull it back too tight, that’s what causes the damage. A loose pony tail, or plait, can work well.

There are also plenty of tutorials online for styling hair and the steps are easy to follow. I really do love online tutorials for learning how to do many things and there should be quite a few on hair styling for all types of hair. It can be fun to watch and to learn from tutorials.

I have a friend in a similar situation and she quite wisely got some advice from her hairdresser. She had a consultation and now has her hair styled to suit her face and hair type. A hairdresser can be quite supportive and work with a person to find suitable hair styles.

Play around with the direction you brush before trying it up. Or use a fabric headband/scarf to tie it back. They don’t pull and put pressure on my hair and look really cute.

Try a loose ponytail, braid, or claw clip to keep your hair off your face without too much tension. Avoid tight styles and heavy accessories to prevent further damage.

If it’s longer hair maybe you can try sweeping it crossways and pinning it.
