Does anyone know anything about a product called Dermmatch? If so what is your opinion on it?

I dont, to me it looks like a crayon you rub on your hair? lol I have no idea but....
I use toppik and that stuff is awesome I must say. The hair rebuilding fibers....you have to get the spray top for even better results. MAKE SURE you match your hair color up just right though lol. I would say by a small bottle (20$) and spray top for 10 off amazon,
30$ worth the shot if you dont like it. Trust me though, definately give it a go, you'll thank me later

There is a good thread below that reviews dermmatch along with some of the other concealers.
Dermatch Thread

I find it easy to use and like the results also.

Thanks for the link to the thread on Dermmatch. I might start using this once my HT is further along. These products appear to be like some kind of mascara for the hair. What is this stuff made of? I always worry about something on the scalp because it will absorb through the pores and into the body. Does this stuff work somehow by fluffing up your hair or does it stain the scalp the same color as the hair to give the appearance that it is thicker? I've been a hair piece wearer and got a HT to get away from the maintenance of the piece and I wonder if I try this if I'm going to be swapping one type of maintenance for another, although I can't imagine this being as much maintenance as a piece. Hopefully after my second HT my hair will be thick enough so I don't have to use this but just in case...

TTDS-

I used dermmatch for a brief period of time after HT #2 until it completely came in but don't use it anymore.

The referenced thread is great! When I used it, I was really pleased with it because it doesn't come out until you wash it out.

It is sort of like mascara I guess, you coat the hairs and scalp.............sometimes I would just coat the hairs and it would be enough to stop the see-through look. I found it best to lightly run a damp towel over the head after drying it to take out the excess.........this stopped it from coming off on my pillow.

I've never used toppik personally and have heard it works good, but it will come out if you get it wet so I never considered it cause hey, I have to walk outside and it rains sometimes so I would be too paranoid !

Dermmatch is by far the most cost effective, that I know for sure. Even with everyday use a $30 disc will likely last you 3-4 months.

How does these concealers make the hair look thicker? Does it change the texture of the hair?

Dermmatch thickens the hair and colors the scalp so there is lest contrast between hair and scalp.
