Brazilian Silk Top Lace Front Wigs
The earliest record of the practice of hair weaving has been traced back to ancient Egypt. During the dawn of their civilization, Egyptians wore hair weaves and wigs as a symbol of social and economic status. The practice of wearing wigs was openly acceptable for both men and women, although, men often wore wigs that were shorter than wigs for women. To achieve the desired look, men would shave their heads and women would wear their hair in cornrows or plaits. Human hair was then attached to the plaits using a knotting method or thread. Women would wear their hair in braids or curly styles. Both men and women would adorn their hair with decorative items such as beads, ribbons, flowers, tassels,and gold. A practice that continues to this day. Also similar to today, is the construction of their hair pieces.There is a general belief that hair loss only happens to men.

Another study published in Dermatologic Surgery says that a lot of young and middle-aged women suffer from hair loss problems. Moreover, the incidence of female hair loss is continually increasing.
