00:00These are the things that I found useful when I first started losing my hair.
00:03When I very first started losing my hair, it was due to Hashimoto's, thyroid problems,
00:07and I experienced quite a deep shedding across my scalp.
00:10I was quite lucky that I went and saw a naturopath, some doctors,
00:13got on the right medication, and my hair started growing back quite quickly.
00:16So I was left with a lot of fluff like this.
00:18To counteract this, I would often put my hair in slick back buns and looks like that,
00:24and honestly you couldn't really tell.
00:26And then I was lucky enough to get alopecia, as I've mentioned in the past.
00:29Big bald patches, which I couldn't really do the slick back looks for anymore.
00:33I started by wearing a lot of headbands like this one.
00:36I then progressed to wearing hats with pretty much all of my outfits.
00:39I know that there are some hair, not hairsprays,
00:42but hair fiber stuff that you can get to help cover some patches.
00:46That's not something that I tried, but I know that some people do find that helpful.
00:49So if there's a brand you can recommend to someone or something that you really like
00:52that someone else might find helpful,
00:54leave a comment because you might help someone else.
00:56Then got to the stage where hats weren't cutting it anymore,
00:59headbands weren't cutting it anymore.
01:01So I kind of had to go a step further,
01:03and I was really really nervous about getting my first piece of hair.
01:06This is the first wig that I bought.
01:10So the first step for me was actually a hair topper.
01:13This lasted me about, I want to say six to eight weeks before it didn't cover enough anymore.
01:18I just clip it into my hair and then tie it with the rest of my hair in a bun.
01:23Made it look a bit better than this.
01:24The day that I actually shaved the rest of my hair off,
01:27it was time for me to go and buy my first full wig.
01:31I was so nervous.
01:32This is the one that I bought.
01:33It's considered a cheap wig in the wig world.
01:36One piece of advice would be, if you can, try and get to a store.
01:39Because in a store you can touch, you can feel, you can see the wigs.
01:42Everything kind of looks a little bit different online.
01:44Probably would have never picked this color if I was online shopping for wigs,
01:47but because I was in the store and I got to try it on with my complexion,
01:50I ended up really liking it.
01:54So I'm going to go ahead and put this wig on.
01:56I'm going to put this wig on.
