innovation in hair replacement

The newest innovation in the hair replacement and hair piece market is the skin base system material. Pieces made from this product look and feel like your own skin. It has a skin like feel and a translucent appearance that takes on the color of your skin. Even though it makes the hair line so incredible it has few downsides to it. The skin base material is very delicate, it is a lot more easily torn. This base also does not retain its natural shape as well as lace bases do. Another downfall of this material is that it does not let air go through to the persons scalp. This many times leads to the "raisin effect" where the head under the skin base becomes shriveled up due to the perspiration and lack of oxygen. For me the best hair replacement material is still fine welded mono it may not feel like skin but it does take on your skin color. It is sturdy, retains the hair replacements shape  insuring a perfect fit every time, and most importantly is very hygienic. Your scalp can breathe! Lets face it we all sweat our scalp gets oily. Now imagine all of that sweat and perspiration being stuck under the skin base. It does not seem hygienic or comfortable to me.
