Dear Friends,
Before I
tell you my story; please take a close look at the Hairpiece
I'm wearing in the photo above. I made it myself with around
$160.00 with of material and it's by far better than any
retail Hairpiece being sold in hair replacement salons or
hair clubs anywhere worldwide. (We challenge any Retail
Wig Salon or Hair Club to equal the quality of my hand-made
Hairpieces or Lace Front Wigs.)
Now if you
will, please allow me to explain how I got involved with
creating my own Hairpieces and how I can help you save thousands
making and maintaining your own Hairpieces or Lace Front
Wigs too.
Around 35
years ago when I was in my mid twenties I started loosing
my hair. Naturally at this young age being bald was totally
unacceptable and especially for an Italian kid who once
had beautiful dark, thick wavy hair.
I was no
hair replacement expert and I had no intentions of becoming
a professional Lace Front Wig maker. I was simply a young
salesman who wanted to look good in order to restore my
self confident with people and to be more acceptable looking
to the young ladies back then.
To solve
my hair loss problem I decided to check out having hair
transplant surgery, however, back then hair transplant surgery
was just getting started and it was quite expensive and
the results I saw from people I know were far from satisfactory.
However, I also learned form others that the risk potential
from surgical complications were extremely high. (This is
still a big consideration even today in the year 2006.)
Because of my negative findings I decided to pass on hair
transplant surgery.
Next I checked
out buying a Hairpiece and as a result I decided that this
was probably my best option for a quick immediately logical
solution to solve my hair loss problem.
Keep in
mind that Rogaine had not been discovered yet, but that
there were many other products on the market that guaranteed
to regenerate lost hair. Most of these products required
using them for the rest of your life and that the results
would take many months or even years before you would regrown
your lost hair.
My final
conclusion was this: "If you're bald and you want hair immediately
you needed to buy a Hairpiece!"
So, to make
a long story short: "I purchased a Hairpiece!"
It was an
inexpensive synthetic Hairpiece with very thick hair. There
was so much hair that you could see I was wearing a Hairpiece
from a block away.
Well what
can I say; it was a cheap Hairpiece and it only lasted me
about 3 months before the hair faded and brittle and it
looked like I was wearing a cat that had been run over on
highway. Naturally, I bought a couple more synthetic Hairpieces
before I finally decided to try purchasing a better quality
human hair system. (They call them hair replacement systems
today. I guess that's why the cost so much!)
On with
my story!
I found that human hair Hairpieces were somewhat better
than synthetic Hairpieces, however, they too were made with
far too much hair and they needed regular maintenance to
keep them looking good as well.
To my disappointment
even quality human hair Hairpieces because detectable just
like the synthetic Hairpieces, but it just took a little
longer. What I wanted was an undetectable Hairpiece and
they were just not available at any price. (I have over
20 thousand customers worldwide and they tell me is that
they can't find a quality natural looking undetectable Hairpiece
or Lace Front Wig at any price.)
After going
through that trauma with retail Hairpieces and having spent
a lot of money in the process, I decided to give doing the
maintenance on my own Hairpiece myself.
What I learned
was doing the maintenance was simply adding hair every now
and then to keep the piece looking fresh. I also found that
how you wash a Hairpiece can greatly extend it life.
To learn
how to add hair to my piece was easy. I simply asked my
friend who was a Lace Front Wig buyer for Montgomery Wards
back then. He learned how to make Lace Front Wigs from an
old oriental women while buying Lace Front Wigs in Japan
for Montgomery Wards.
Learning
how to ventilate hair was easy. I guess I watched him do
it so many time that I could automatically do it when I
tried. So, after I learned how to ventilate hair to my piece
I was finally in control of keeping my Hairpiece looking
good. But what I did not realize then was you can only add
so much hair to a piece before it starts looking like a
mannequins Hairpiece with too much hair.
Well at
this point, I either had to buy another Hairpiece or I had
to try making one myself.
And that's
exactly what I did. I decided to try making my next Hairpiece
myself from scratch and I ordered some hair and foundation
material for the project.
Now that
I was ready to create my own custom Hairpiece I decided
to eliminate what I considered was the reasons why retail
Hairpieces were so obviously detectable.
Here's what
I concluded must be done to create a truly natural looking
undetectable Hairpiece:
First, I
would need a very thin foundation material that would fit
tightly to my scalp.
Second,
I would need some quality human hair for creating my Hairpiece.
Third, I
would need to create a long lasting durable tape-tab system
for securing the Hairpiece for wearing.
And last,
I would need to be able to cut-in my Hairpiece so it would
blend naturally with my own hair. For this I decided to
have it cut-in by a professional barber. Today, I use my
Flowbee Hair Cutting System.
Well that's
the story and that is exactly what happen. Today I have
perfected making custom Hairpieces for myself, but I don't
make them for anyone else because that was not the reason
I got involved in the first place.
How I got
involved with MHRW INTERNATIONAL was the result from being
asked to make Hairpieces or Lace Front Wigs for others.
Because I had no interest in making Hairpieces or Lace Front
Wigs for others I offered showing them how to make their
own Hairpieces or Lace Front Wigs. Today as a result of
my 35 years at perfecting making my own Hairpieces; I now
offer my knowledge to others in the form of a Lace Front
Wigmaking training kit called the MHRW Hairpiece Kit.
You can
even make Men's Mustaches, Beards, Sideburns, Eyebrows,
and even Chops; or Women's Add-on Hair Pieces or Lace Front
Wigs when you learn from our simple Wig Making Program.

The
Hairpiece MHRW Training Kit |
First, let
me tell you the method I developed for creating a natural
looking Hairpiece or Lace Front Wig:
STEP 1.
Foundation and Hair
Because
the essence of a Hairpiece or Lace Front Wig is the foundation
(Hairpiece or Lace Front Wig base) and hair, I decided the
foundation must light weight, thin, tightly textured, one
piece with no seams, strong, durable, and a flesh tone colored
material so it blends naturally with a persons own skin.
And equally important, it must be porous enough to allow
perspiration to evaporate freely. To make it fit the contour
of my head required making a wooden mold resembling the
shape of a full size human head and then reshaping flat
material to be contoured using steam.
This was
accomplished using a nylon mono-filament material and I
call them MHRW Ready made Preshaped Hairpiece Foundations.
As for the
hair, I decided to use the best hair possible of which back
then was Italian hair, to create a quality Hairpiece that
would last longer than Hairpieces or Lace Front Wigs made
with synthetic hair or Asian hair. After all, it takes the
same amount of time to create a Hairpiece or Lace Front
Wig regardless of the hair being used to create it.
STEP
2. Ventilating Hair to the Foundation
The hardest
part of creating your own Hairpiece or Lace Front Wig would
be learning how to ventilate hair. This is done using a
tool called the Ventilator Tool. It is designed to hold
a knitting needle that ties 1 to 3 hairs to the foundation
as desired. Learning this process is easily done by simply
watching the MHRW Training Video. To create your desired
Hairpiece or Lace Front Wig first you must place the foundation
over the bald area of your head and then draw an outline
(including a part if desired) of your desired Hairpiece
or Lace Front Wig. It does not matter your degree of baldness
because the MHRW Foundations are large and will easily cover
your entire head.
Next, the
outlined foundation is secured to a MHRW Head Block for
ventilating hair within the outlined area.
STEP 3.
Creating the Bonding System
Next, you
must seal the edge of the foundation so it will not fray
and to provide an area I call the Tape-Tab System for securing
your Hairpiece or Lace Front Wig for wearing. This is easily
done using my MHRW EasyTAB Compound. You simply brush it
along the underside edge of the foundation and allow it
to dry. This compound dries clear in color to allow your
own skin color to photograph right through the foundation.
It actually creates the illusion of hair growing from your
scalp rather than from the foundation.
"You
must see this to believe it!!"
Securing
your Hairpiece or Lace Front Wig may be easily done using
transparent adhesive tape or clips or with the new extended
wear surgical liquid glue method. In some cases both tape
and clips or tape and adhesive are used for securing a Hairpiece
or Lace Front Wig.
Cutting
and Styling
Naturally,
cutting in the Hairpiece or Lace Front Wig that is created
is not part of creating a Hairpiece or Lace Front Wig, however,
it is required to make the Hairpiece or Lace Front Wig blend
naturally with your own hair.
You must
do a good job of cutting in a newly created Hairpiece or
Lace Front Wig; so choose one of the following options to
insure your success:
1. You can
do it yourself using a Flowbee Hair Cutting System.
2. You can have your barber or hair stylist cut-in your
Hairpiece or Lace Front Wig for you.
Now let me
tell you the process I use for creating a Hairpiece or Lace
Front Wig:
Step 1./
The foundation is placed over the bald area of your head
and your desired Hairpiece or Lace Front Wig pattern is
drawn on to its surface. (This would include the outline
showing exactly where the part is desired on the finished
piece.)
Step 2./
Next, the outlined foundation is secured to a head block
and hair is ventilated within the outlined area. (Creating
a Hairpiece in this manor allows you to control the hair
density while hair is being ventilated to the foundation.
Controlling the direction hair is being ventilated to the
foundation also allows you to create your desired hairstyle.)
Step 3./
When finished ventilating - - the Hairpiece is removed from
the head block and a liquid tape-tab compound is brushed
along the entire underside edge of the Hairpiece. (After
the compound dries the excess foundation material is cut
away to reveal your completed Hairpiece.)
My 3 Step
Process for creating a Hairpiece or Lace Front Wig in this
manor allows you to control the hair density while hair
is being ventilated to the foundation. Controlling the direction
of the hair being ventilated to the foundation also allows
you to create any desired hairstyle.
Please
keep in mind
that I created this concept for creating my own Hairpieces,
however, the same 3 Step Process may easily be used to create
women's Lace Front Wigs too.
Now let me
tell you about my MHRW Hairpiece Kit:
My 3 Step
Lace Front Wig making process is provided on a VHS
Training Video The MHRW Hairpiece Kit provides you with
the Hairpiece Training Video and Manual, all tools, and
supplies, and accessories needed for creating and maintaining
custom Hairpieces and Lace Front Wigs. You also have the
option of choosing a Kit with Synthetic, Asian, and Italian
hair for creating your desired Hairpiece or Lace Front Wig.
As an added incentive, I offer ongoing Online or Telephone
support to all of my customers worldwide.
Another
important point that must be considered with creating and
maintaining your own Hairpieces or Lace Front Wigs is the
time required to create them. I personally can create a
full size Hairpiece within 20 to 30 hours (while watching
TV). One lady customer of mine told me that she created
a Hairpiece for her son in around 11 hours. The time it
will take you to create your own Hairpiece will depend upon
your own personal skills and the speed at which you are
able to work.
When you
compare how long it takes to create your own Hairpiece or
Lace Front Wig to the standard 6 to 8 weeks delivery time
required for having a retail Hairpiece or Lace Front Wig
created and delivered to you -- you can easily see that
creating your own Hairpiece or Lace Front Wig would be much
faster than waiting 6 to 8 weeks for delivery of a retail
Hairpiece or Lace Front Wig.
The last
and maybe the most important point to consider is the cost
of creating additional Hairpieces or Lace Front Wigs after
the initial cost of the MHRW Hairpiece Kit. Creating a custom
Hairpiece or Lace Front Wig requires that you purchase at
least one ounce of hair and a foundation. Synthetic hair
10" long costs just $28 an ounce, Asian hair $86 an ounce,
and Italian hair cost $136 an ounce. A Hairpiece or Lace
Front Wig foundation cost just $20 each.
As you can
clearly see, the materials needed for creating a custom
Hairpiece or Lace Front Wig cost from $47 to $156 per Hairpiece
or Lace Front Wig compared to the cost of a retail Hairpiece
or Lace Front Wig ranging in price from $400 to $4000 each.
I sincerely
hope that this information helps you with your decision
regarding the solution to your hair loss problem. However,
