The choice of skin PU thickness and whether or not to bleach knots in a men’s toupee can vary depending on personal preference and the desired appearance. Here are some points to consider:
- Skin PU Thickness: Skin polyurethane (PU) is a popular material used in the base construction of men’s toupees. The thickness of the skin PU can range from very thin, such as 0.06mm, to thicker options. Thinner skin PU offers a more natural and undetectable look, closely resembling the appearance of the scalp.
- Bleaching Knots: Knots refer to where individual hair strands are tied onto the base material of the toupee. Bleaching knots involves lightening them to make them less visible against the skin or scalp color. Whether bleaching knots is necessary depends on factors like your natural hair color, skin tone, and personal preference for achieving a seamless blend between your own hair and the toupee.
It’s important to note that while thinner skin PU provides an incredibly realistic appearance, it may also be more delicate compared to thicker options which offer added durability.
