Frequently Asked Questions
Is short or long hair better for balding?
If you are balding or have thinning hair and wish to conceal your hairline, short hairstyles will do a better job. You can style them to appear voluminous. Long hair gets weighed down, and the strands stick closer to the scalp, not leaving enough scope for styling.
Is a shaved head unprofessional for women?
No. A shaved head does not look unprofessional and is a matter of preference (irrespective of gender). Besides, having a shaved head or even a buzz or cropped cut accentuates the facial features and contour and looks aesthetically pleasing.
