Imagine this: You’re stepping out of quarantine for the first time to meet your friends after spending what feels like an eternity indoors. You spend hours thinking about what to wear and take your sweet time to perfect that winged liner, only to realize that you have a faint but visible bald spot on the side of your head.
Doesn’t it sound like something straight out of a nightmare?
Whether it’s due to years of hair abuse with heat and chemicals or tying up your hair too tight, bald patches are truly the bane of our existence.
But don’t worry, we’ve got a few tricks up our sleeve to help you cover up any bald spots, patches, or edges that may be raining down on your happiness.
Let’s take a look at a few of them here!
Use a Primer and Eye Shadow
This is one of those quick fixes that most of us desperately need when we’ve got one foot out the door.
Take out your eye shadow primer and put it on the bald patch on your scalp. Use a flat makeup brush to layer the area with an eye shadow that closely matches your hair’s color. Blend the shadow with a fluffy brush and comb through the area for a natural finish.
Waterproof Mascara
Do you have a thinning hairline that prevents you from parting your hair? This mascara hack is coming to the rescue!
Take your waterproof mascara in a shade that matches your hair color and start putting it on the bald patches on your hair. Make sure you don’t put excess mascara as the product buildup can make your hair look gunky. Keep a light hand with the application and finish it up by brushing your hair.
Try Out a Different Hairstyle
Sometimes, no matter what you do, your hair just doesn’t cooperate. This calls for a new hairstyle that can help you cover up thinning hair.
If you have a receding hairline, you can opt for fringes and bangs to cover up the area. If you have a bald patch in the middle of your head, you can tie your hair back to cover up the area. But make sure you don’t pull your hair back too tightly as can do more harm than good.
Go For Clip-In Hair Extensions
If nothing works for you, clip in hair extensions might. They can adequately cover up bald spots and thinning hair by giving you fuller and voluminous hair in no time. Be sure to use the extensions with hair above the weft
