Regular Member goozer Posted July 30, 2015 Regular Member Share Posted July 30, 2015 Hello, Does concealer on short hair work? Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Spanker Posted July 31, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted July 31, 2015 Yes. I think it works best on hair between 3/4 inch to 2 inches. It works on longer too but I think that's where the wow factor comes in.

Dr Blake Bloxham Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 I've seen it work too. The only issue I've seen with some guys with short hair is a lot of particles collecting on the scalp. This can be a bit of a "give away." Dr. Blake Bloxham is recommended by the Hair Transplant Network.

Regular Member mocachin Posted October 31, 2015 Regular Member Share Posted October 31, 2015 I am currently almost 1cm in length all over........ definately too short to use unless you use like a fine eyelash brush to apply it directly to the hair otherwise at this length its impossible to avid the scalp. I would think when you can 'style/move' the hair then it would be effective, so like 2cm/ 3/4"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only issue I've seen with some guys with short hair is a lot of particles collecting on the scalp. This can be a bit of a "give away." This^, i'm about 0.85cm/1/5 Inch and its definately too short to use unless you use like a fine eyelash brush to apply it directly to the hair otherwise at this length its impossible to avid the scalp. I would think when you can 'style/move' the hair then it would be effective, so like 2cm/ 3/4"? ....saying this, if you've longer hair all over but a bald spot I would think a combination of scalp concealer (or SMP) and toppik would work.

Regular Member Nocureforbaldness Posted November 14, 2015 Regular Member Share Posted November 14, 2015 I used to buzz my hair to grade one and use Dermatch lightly to take the shine off my crown. It looked okay unless you looked real close to it in a harsh light. Tried fibres too as I still had some velous hair but they didn't work at all. I did away with it all earlier this year and opted for SMP which looks more realistic and stops me worrying about being too close to people when my back is turned to them.

Senior Member Shera Posted November 14, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted November 14, 2015 I used fibres, Nanogen and then Caboki on short hair for some time, never really got picked up by anyone about it. The general rule of thumb is when you run out of hairs for the fibres to attach to, then its probably time to either go for that HT or shave it all off. __________________________________________________ Dr Bhatti FUE Oct 2014 3305 grafts http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/178931-my-fue-dr-tejinder-bhatti-oct-2014-a.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Hairsearch21 Posted November 14, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted November 14, 2015 Which kind of skin concealers would you recommend?.. Maybe someone With experience can say something about that. I Have hopefully after MY transplant finale grows in ONLY a VERY small miniaturisized crown to worry about. So There is hair amt Toppik works great There Before i got the procedure. BUT maybe with a skin concealer it is even better in combination. All the best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member RKHT02 Posted November 15, 2015 Regular Member Share Posted November 15, 2015 Dermatch worked well for me, even when pretty short, providing there are enough hairs for the fibres to attach to. Eventually I went for a ht as the concealer was no longer working as I continued to lose more and more hairs. But I didn't find a problem using Dermatch on short hair.

DermMatch is a paste, there are no fibers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member AlexieJ Posted February 3, 2016 Regular Member Share Posted February 3, 2016 Yep, it works fine. But please keep in mind that it won't work if you have very short hair. It works well if you have at least 2 inches hair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Rashid36 Posted February 11, 2016 Senior Member Share Posted February 11, 2016 i used toppik and it did the job only after it makes a complete mess. black powder all on my t shirt and you have to use shampoo to wash it out and it gets on the face too. washed it off with soap and the soap went black! Never use that again its like powder, waste of money only used once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member AlexieJ Posted March 24, 2016 Regular Member Share Posted March 24, 2016 Any of those hair fiber products (Toppik, Caboki, Strand Maximizer, etc.) would work on short hair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
