How to get the most out of your hair

Wearing a hairsystem, hairpiece or wig is easier than ever with all of the great products that have been created specifically for you. 

Whether you decide to wear human or synthetic hair, the common goal is to keep the hair looking natural and beautiful for a long time.  One of the best things you can do is to give your hair a rest. This means taking it off each night or at least a few times a week.  Wearing your hair to bed each night can cause friction so taking it off when you sleep will actually prolong the wear of your hair and keep it looking shiny and not dull from rubbing against your pillow.  Use products that are made for hairsystems such as the Qshi line of hair products. These products are specifically made to keep your hair looking great and come in a variety of options-conditioners, shampoos, mousse, hairspray, gel, etc... Finally, making sure to treat your hair gently is definitely key to keeping your hair looking it's best. Try to not scrub your hair when washing it and avoid rubbing it to dry it. Air drying your hair is always the best option and one we strongly recommend. 

Wishing you and your families a happy Chanukkah and a happy Thanksgiving.

Hairsystems for men and women

When deciding on whether or not a hairsystem is for you, one of the biggest things one should take into account is the longevity of the actual system.  For some, hairsystems can last years and for others only months.  The reason for such a disparity, has to do with how the hairsystem is worn.  Meaning, is it bonded on, taped on or clipped on?  Our customers that have the longest wear out of their systems typically wear them clipped or taped on.  They sometimes can keep the same system for years while those who are bonded on need to change them out more frequently, because they are worn all of the time and only taken off for monthly service visits.  To know which hairsystem is right for you and which method will work best for you, call today for a FREE consultation to find out more, 480-483-8800 or visit us on the web: www.dontes.com

Hair Extensions, which one is the best?

Hair Extensions come in a multitude of ways they can be attached.  The first thing you may want to think about is whether you want to always wear your extensions or if you want to take them in and out at your own discretion. 
With clip in extensions, you can have that flexibility.  Clip in extensions may be bought per weft or in a package that might contain several wefts of various sizes. We love the Hair Diamonds line as they have gorgeous hair and are produced in Italy, which means they are very high quality and will last a very long time.
 So let's say you don't want to bother with taking them in and out, well in that case you will want extensions that a professional puts in and can last 3-6 months.  If that is the case then your options are going to be wefted extensions or individual extensions.  These types of extensions will stay in and if applied properly as the skilled technicians at Donte's of New York know how to, your hair will be damage free too.  Braiding, sewing and gluing may cause damage to your hair so you want to be sure to look for alternate ways of having your extensions attached, such as we do at Donte's of New York. 
Finally there are the Micropoint Solutions, extensions that can be placed on the top of your head. These extensions are so small it would be very hard for anyone to detect them.  Made out of cyber hair (hair that is manufactured and is the closest thing to human hair) these attachments will add volume to your hair while looking 100% natural.  Sold only by trained professionals this product is amazing. 
If you are experiencing hair loss of any kind, whether it be that you are just noticing your hair starting to thin, or if you have lost most of your hair or even all of it, Donte's of New York can help you to achieve a gorgeous full of head that looks natural and allows your existing hair to remain, damage free. We specialize in all non-surgical hair replacement techniques for both men and women. Call us today for your FREE consultation to find out how you too can have a beautiful head of hair today. 480-483-8800 or visit us on the web: www.dontes.com

Remy or Virgin hair extensions, how does one know?

Visually one cannot tell the difference between Remy Human Hair and Virgin Human Hair extensions but when looking for one or the other, here are some things to know.

Remy Human Hair Extensions:  All of the hairs that make up the extension are running in the same direction, thus allowing the hair to flow freely and not tangle. 

Virgin Human Hair Extensions:  The hair is unprocessed and the cuticle may be running in opposite directions which can cause the hair to knot up if not handles properly. 

Donte's of New York is your hair replacement specialist, offering hair loss solutions for both men and women, which include hair pieces, hair extensions, wigs and Micropoint Solutions. Call today for a FREE consultation to learn how we can help you get a beautiful head of hair, 480-483-8800 or visit us on the web at: www.dontes.com

What causes hair loss?

Did you know that each one of your hair follicles is a living organ? It's true! Keeping that in mind, it is important that we do all we can to keep each of them strong so that we can keep the hair we have for as long as possible.

So what causes hair loss?  Primarily in men and women hair loss is caused by aging and our genes.  The Dihydrotestosterone hormone (also known as DHT) plays the biggest part in how quickly we keep or lose our hair.  High levels of DHT will block blood and nutrients from reaching our scalp which then eventually causes the follicle to die.  Women generally produce less of the DHT and women even produce an enzyme called aromatase that helps to block it, that is why less women experience hair loss then men.  Hair thinning and hair loss can also be caused by not taking care of yourself.  A poor diet, stress, medications, use of chemicals and hot tools on your hair to name a few, can all contribute to hair thinning or loss. 

The best way to help maintain your hair is to be sure to use a high quality shampoo such as IHI Hair Support, known to cleanse the hair follicle to allow hair growth, reduce the amount of chemicals or hot tools used on your hair, eat a well balanced diet and keep stress at bay.

 If you are experiencing hair loss, we know it can be difficult, we are here to help. Call Donte's of New York TODAY for your FREE consultation: 480-483-8800 or visit us on the web: www.dontes.com
