In this video you might notice there’s something a little different about me in it… yeah, it’s the hair. No, I didn’t suddenly regrow it overnight or find some miracle supplement, this is actually a hair system.

So this one is from Lordhair, and the reason I wanted to try it is pretty simple. I didn’t want to go the transplant route, I didn’t want anything permanent, but I did like the idea of having the option to have hair again when I feel like it. Kind of like something you can put on for a night out, a weekend, or just to change things up.

Right out of the box, I was honestly impressed. The hair looks really realistic, the texture feels good, and overall it’s a pretty convincing system. This one is a full top piece, so it completely changes your look, not just filling in a small area.

Now the install process… that’s where things get a bit more involved. You’ve got to prep your scalp, apply the tape, then glue down the front in layers and let it dry in between. It’s not super complicated, but it’s definitely not something you rush, especially the first time. I actually had to redo mine once because it folded over in the back, so there’s a bit of a learning curve.

One thing I’ll say, make sure you get good glue. I cheaped out on one from Amazon and it showed up basically solid, completely unusable, so I had to run out and grab a proper one last minute. Lesson learned there.

Once it’s on, the real difference comes when you get it cut and styled. I went to a local barber and had him shape it into more of an undercut style, which works well because you don’t have to blend as much with the sides. After that, it really started to come together.

And honestly, when I saw the final result, it kind of took me back. It looks really similar to how my hair was back in my late 20s, same kind of thickness, similar wave, even the color is pretty close, although I might go a bit lighter next time with a bit mroe grey in it (Mine was 10% grey).

Now after wearing the Lordhair System for about a week, it actually feels a lot more normal than I expected. You sleep in it, you wake up with bedhead, you style it, it behaves like real hair. Maintenance hasn’t been too bad either. The only thing is the front edge can lift slightly sometimes, so I just press it back down and it’s good to go.

The biggest adjustment hasn’t been the system itself though, it’s been people’s reactions. I’ve been bald for about 15 years, so going from that to a full head of hair is a pretty big shock for people. Some laugh, some think I’m joking, some don’t know what to say at all. But honestly, after a few minutes, everything just goes back to normal.

As for whether it’s worth it, I think it really depends on what you’re looking for. These systems last around three to four months adn the starting cost is arounbd $370 US per hair unit, so it’s not a one-time thing, there’s some ongoing cost and maintenance. But compared to something permanent, it gives you flexibility. You can wear it when you want, take it off when you don’t, and change things up over time.

For me, I actually like it. I think it looks good. I’m just not totally sure yet if this is going to be an all-the-time thing or something I use once in a while. That’s something I’ll figure out over time.

But yeah, let me know what you think, does it look real? Would you try something like this?
