    Its a difficult one and dependant on many factors.

    I started to lose my hair late 20's and when it hit it hit hard.

    I ended up growing my hair out, then went down the concealer route. This lasted until I was well into my 30's...but got tired of the same old fashioned style.

    Decided to wear a small hairline piece and mix it in with my existing hair, I still do it now approaching 40, best thing I did, barely any maintainance, cheap, gives me a more fashionable style. Heck my sister was putting a million more hair on her hair extensions than my tiny hairline piece.

    But others may be different. If you have little hair it would be very hard to get away with wearing without people knowing because who goes from little hair to no hairloss overnight. There are some who dont care that people know though.

    Peoples views on hair pieces tend still to be of the terrible wigs of the 70's but like most things hair pices have progressed and can be amazing.

    If I was a good candidate for a HT I would have probably gone down that route, not sure though, but my choices were limited and wearing a hairline piece was by far the best option to me it just makes my life so much easier and as I mix it in with my existing hair its impossible to detect, and as I looked as if I had lots of hair before I wore no-one ever would know.

    Theres pro's and con's about all hairloss treatments, HT's can are very expensive, often people need more than 1 HT, it may mean you are dependant on med's that can have serious sides, and HT's are no guarentee of a good outcome. Hair pieces can make some paranoid some can look terrible etc etc....

    But like I said before it really depends on your situation, and the attitude you have.

    My opinion is be open minded the choices are out there, everyone is different some will hate the idea of wearing, some will wear and not like it, and some will say wearing is the best thing they have ever done.

    good luck.
