FAQ – Atelier Kosaé Hair Systems
1. What is a hair system?
A hair system is a very fine base onto which real hair is implanted. It is attached to the scalp to recreate natural hair on thinning or balding areas.
2. What is the difference between a wig and a hairpiece?
A wig covers the entire head.
A hair system only covers the area where hair is missing and blends with your natural hair for a much more discreet and natural result.
3. Is the result truly natural?
Yes. Atelier Kosaé hair systems are designed with ultra-thin bases and natural hair that is realistically implanted to mimic natural hair growth.
The "false skin" visually blends with the scalp.
4. Is the hair of the hairpiece natural?
Yes. Atelier Kosaé hairpieces are made with real human hair, selected for its quality and realistic appearance.
5. Who is a hair replacement for?
Hair supplements are for people who suffer from:
• baldness
• thinning hair
• loss of density
• receding hairlines
They quickly restore natural-looking hair.
6. Will people notice I'm wearing a hair system?
No. When properly fitted and styled, a hair system is virtually undetectable.
7. Is the supplement palpable to the touch?
No. The bases used are very fine and discreet, which allows for a natural result even to the touch.
8. Is it comfortable to wear?
Yes. Atelier Kosaé accessories are lightweight and breathable, allowing for comfortable all-day wear.
9. Do hair continue to grow under a hair system?
Yes. Atelier Kosaé hairpieces allow the skin to breathe, which enables the hair underneath the piece to continue to grow naturally.
10. Should the remaining hair on the balding area be shaved?
Yes. For optimal hold and a natural look, it is recommended to shave any hair in the application area.
To facilitate this step, you can find a pen trimmer specifically designed for precise preparation of the application area in the Atelier Kosaé store.
11. Is it difficult to install?
No. Kosaé Workshop extensions are designed to be easily installed at home.
12. How long does the installation take?
Full installation usually takes between 15 and 20 minutes once you are familiar with the technique.
This includes drying time between resin coats.
13. How long does a hairpiece last?
The duration depends on the model:
• Fresh: approximately 1 to 2 months
• Natural: approximately 3 to 4 months
• Endurance: approximately 6 to 9 months
14. Can you wash your hair with a hairpiece?
Yes. You can wash your hair normally with a mild shampoo.
15. Can I style my hair normally?
Yes. The hairpiece can be styled, blow-dried, and styled with styling products just like natural hair.
16. Can you sleep with a hair system?
Yes. Hairpieces are designed to be worn day and night.
17. Can you play sports with a hairpiece?

18. Can you swim with a hairpiece?

19. Can you go scuba diving or do water sports?
Yes. For intense water activities, we recommend simply wearing a classic swimming cap or a helmet (for example, for kiting).
You will be able to enjoy your most intense water activities without any worries.
20. Can the supplement come off?
No. When correctly fitted with the appropriate resins or adhesives, the restoration remains firmly attached.
21. Can I remove my hairpiece?
Yes. The supplement can be removed at any time with the appropriate products.
22. Does wearing a hair system damage your hair?
No. Atelier Kosaé supplements are designed to respect the scalp and allow the skin to breathe normally.
23. How much does hair replacement cost per month?
The cost depends on the chosen model and its lifespan.
On average, the price often comes down to a few euros per day to regain natural-looking hair.
24. Should I do a patch test before first use?
Yes. Before your first application, it is recommended to perform a patch test 24 hours prior to application to check for skin tolerance.
25. How do I get my hair cut around the hair system?
You can go to a men's hairdresser or a barber to have the cut of your natural hair around the hair system maintained.
The hairdresser can cut your natural hair and, if necessary, slightly adjust the cut of the hair system so that it blends in perfectly, as if it were your own hair.
Our advice is to wash your hair at home before going to the hairdresser, using suitable products.
The hairdresser can simply lightly dampen your hair to cut it, without shampooing.
This allows you to maintain control over the care of your hair system while benefiting from a professional cut.
