Combover Toupee
A tonsorial accessory that can be dyed, sized and applied with minimum fuss or funding. | |
Realistic looking toupees don't come cheap, and even with the best (as worn by such celebrities as William Shatner and Justin Bieber) there's still that element of fakedness: under various conditions the colour, texture, luminosity and density won't match the natural mop.
Now, while not considered
the height of fashion, a decent combover does look like part of a reasonably full head of hair, at a distance. Even up close and personal it still looks both tidy and natural, while being much less distracting (or even potentially embarassing) than a cheap rug.
But what if you don't have the time and effort to invest to grow one properly ? Enter the Combover Toupee:
Resembling nothing so much as one of Godzilla's false eyelashes, the Combover Toupee is packaged as a continuous roll; simply cut to the desire length, trim to the desired width and attach to the inner edge of the fringe by the colour-coordinated nylon minature hooks. If you get glue or paint in your Combover, simply replace it from the roll. While the Toupee will *not* fly off even in a high wind, it can be relatively easily combed out.
It's cheap: the number of fibres used is less than ten percent of a full pate-cover.
And it looks fantastic: *real* combovers have a different density than the natural coif, so the colour and texture of the toupee need only be approximated to match what it should look like.

Interesting - if you were going to all the trouble of covering up your baldness, no one would think you'd be so stupid as to cover it up with a ridiculous-looking prosthetic combover. So in that sense, it has the potential to be a more convincing deception than a toupee which attempt to resemble a more stylish hairstyle. |

Brilliant! Do you have one in a TALL size? No matter; bun! [+] |

Actually I think Donald Trump already uses one of these. |

Does if come with dandruff for greater realism? |
|
|
[hippo] not only that but since (real) combovers look different from the rest of the mop anyways, you can be a bit looser with the colour, texture, etc. matching. § x1 |
