Myth 1: 'It falls off in the rain'
Medical-grade adhesive is fully waterproof once cured. It survives rain, showers, pools and sweat.
Myth 2: 'It damages your real hair'
Nothing in the process touches your follicles. Real hair grows normally underneath.
Myth 3: 'People will notice'
A hand-ventilated lace hairline is undetectable at conversation distance and in most photos.
Myth 4: 'It's only for older men'
Our youngest client is 21. Hair loss doesn't ask permission by age.
Myth 5: 'It's uncomfortable'
Ultra-light bases weigh under 40g. Most clients forget they're wearing it within a week.
Myth 6: 'You can never swim'
You can. Rinse fresh water after chlorine, and follow standard care.
Myth 7: 'Synthetic hair looks the same'
It doesn't — synthetic tangles, shines unnaturally and can't be heat-styled.
Myth 8: 'It's a permanent commitment'
It's the opposite — fully reversible any time.
Myth 9: 'A transplant is always better'
A transplant is a valid choice for some cases. It isn't automatically better. Read our comparison guide.
