Frequently Asked Questions
Q. WHAT ARE THE HAIR BUILDING FIBERS MADE OF?
A. The Hair Building Fibers are made of Keratin protein, the same thing that makes up human hair. The Keratin protein comes from a natural wool source, which is the closest match to human hair. Learn about Keratin and other alternatives here.
Q. IF IT BEGINS TO RAIN, WILL THE HAIR BUILDING FIBERS REMAIN IN MY HAIR?
A. The Hair Building Fibers stay firmly in place even in wind, rain and perspiration, typically. You may also wish to use some hairspray as well.
Q. DO THE HAIR BUILDING FIBERS AFFECT HAIR GROWTH?
A. No, the Hair Building Fibers do not encourage or discourage hair growth. The natural Keratin Fibers will not clog pores or affect a scalp condition.
Q. HOW LONG WILL THE HAIR BUILDING FIBERS STAY IN PLACE?
A. The Hair Building Fibers stay until you wash your hair. However, if you touch your scalp (and especially dig), you're going to remove some of the fibers, so hands off your head! Please note, that fibers may flake somewhat throughout the day and may be visible on surfaces like chair headrests and pillows, but will generally wash right out.
Q. CAN THE HAIR BUILDING FIBERS COVER GRAY ROOTS OR COLOR-TREATED ROOT RE-GROWTH?
A. The Hair Building Fibers can be used to effectively and easily cover both gray roots and color-treated root re-growth! Remember, the fibers do NOT contribute to hair grown or restoration whatsoever.
Q. CAN I USE THE HAIR BUILDING FIBERS WITH STYLING TOOLS AND PRODUCTS?
A. It is recommended that the Hair Building Fibers be applied after the use of any styling tools such as hairdryers, flat irons or curling irons. Styling products (other than hairspray) should be applied to the hair prior to applying the Hair Building Fibers. Applying gels, mousses, pastes, serums, and the like after applying Fibers may cause shifting the Fibers and could expose the areas that were meant to be covered. Let styling products dry before applying Fibers.
Q. HOW DO I MAKE MY HAIRLINE LOOK NATURAL?
A. The irregular teeth and unique design of the Hairline Optimizer is ideal for naturally framing the areas around the face, including the forehead and temple areas. This tool also keeps Fibers from getting onto the forehead when applying fibers to the front hairline.
Q. DO I NEED TO USE HAIR SPRAY?
A. A light coating of hair spray is suggested to keep the fibers intact longer. The hair spray you use can impact this, so be advised to try it out, wait for it to dry, and if results aren't as expected, try a lighter hold spray. For best results, use Diversified Hair™ FIber Hold Spray.
Q. DO THE HAIR BUILDING FIBERS WORK ON ETHNIC HAIR?
A. The texture and appearance of the the Hair Building Fibers work well with ethnic hair.
Q. HOW LONG WILL A BOTTLE OF THE HAIR BUILDING FIBERS LAST?
A. It depends on how frequently you use the product and the amount of the product you use each time.
Q. CAN I MIX DIFFERENT COLORS OF THE HAIR BUILDING FIBERS?
A. Yes, you can mix different shades of the Hair Building Fibers. In fact, it is often encouraged to mix different shades in order to find the closest match to your own color, especially when working with blonde or gray hair. The product can either be mixed directly in the hair (use the lighter color first, and then layer the darker color over it). That is going to take some practice.
