ADJUSTMENTS, CUT AND SETTING IN FOLDS
The prostheses ready to wear will take a more natural look
if you have them adjusted according to the shape of your head.
All
the new prostheses are marketed with a surplus of hair, reason
whya hair-cut becomes necessary. The specialist will not change
the style of the prosthesis since this one is already preconceived.
The setting in folds will facilitate the maintenance and the
way you wear your prosthesis. The use of a double-faced adhesive
band offers also more safety.
- Do not forget to ask whether the prices included the
initial and later expenses of adjustment, cut and setting
in folds.
- Test several prostheses before stopping your choice.
- Make sure of the following: is the prosthesis comfortable?
Is it flexible? How does it move when you turn the head?
Does it itch? Is it too hot?
- Finally, ask yourself if the general aspect of your prosthesis
is appropriate to you, if you feel good carrying it, and
that finally if it holds well in place and that the adjustment
is adequate without being to tight.
MAINTENANCE AND CARE
As for the human hair, the synthetic or natural prostheses
must be maintained and washed to ensure a quality of hygiene.The
odors tend to remain impregnated in the bonnet of the prosthesis,
therefore the importance to wash it according to the frequency
of use.
