Hair GeneticsHair Fibres Medium Brown 22g for Hair Loss Cover Up Thin Hair & Bald Spots- Hair Fibres for Thicker Hair - Hair Fibers for Men and Women for Hair Loss - Medium Brown Hair Fibres

I have to admit this product surprised me, it looks like the real thing. It does take some time to get used to how to put it on, but once mastered it takes just a minute or two to get it right. You don't need the expensive hold spray for keratin fibres, use normal hair spray but make sure you use it at a distance when spraying (about 30/40cm) Use at least two coats, this will give you some protection in the rain - I have been out in very light to light rain and it has remained in place. Some reviews even say you can sleep with it, I tried but it did start to come off and leave residue on the pillows, so I wouldn't recommend going to bed with it. I went to work with it on and asked at least 10 people to have a close look and they ALL said they couldn't tell it wasn't real hair. Using it on your crown is the best, but I am still perfecting it around the temple area - not sure if I will ever master this area as it always looks a bit false. The crown though is indistinguishable to real hair. Great product let down only by the colour, it looks more like a dark ginger - this was solved by mixing with a medium blonde fibre - Trial and error but well worth it in the end.

I have been using Mane thickening spray for some time (expensive!) and decided to try the "shake on" fibres instead. Pleasantly surprised at the results - more natural looking and overall less mess since you control the application more directly. Just some advice for anyone who, like me, was apprehensive about using fibres.1) Apply fibres to CLEAN, freshly shampooed and DRY hair without any product such as gel or wax. The fibres attach to the hair better this way. You can style your hair once the fibres are applied as long as you do so gently.2) The colour you use is a matter of experimentation. I used a mid brown Mane spray, so I just went for medium brown fibres. They are slightly darker (also probably to do with the brand being different), so I will probably try the next lighter shade. However, I kind of like darker hair and have no issue with people assuming I've dyed it!3) Order a good spray applicator. When I say "spray" I mean you're still using the fibres, but the applicator uses a thin nozzle to pump and target the fibres in a more precise way. Good for hairlines. I use the Fab Hair Fibre Applicator.4) Don't just pour on the fibres and use a fixing spray. Pat them down and work them into the hair a little, maybe comb/brush lightly to distribute the fibres more evenly. People complaining about "clumps" or an unnatural look are probably neglecting this step. Have patience!5) For crown thinning, place the shaker close to the scalp and use a circular motion occasionally tapping. In fact the circular motion is generally good for optimum distribution. Use a hand mirror to ensure you have an even spread. This takes some practice but you'll get it!6) If you're doing the hairline you will inevitably get some of the fibres on your forehead. I use a razor to carefully scrape down from the hairline and then brush off the excess with one of those clipper cleaners. You can also use wet wipes.7) Don't wash your hair every day. There's really no need and you will save money by only having to apply fibres every other day. Using a good fixing spray will keep your hair protected and looking clean for a couple of days and the fibres won't go anywhere until you wash.8) Yes, it can be messy. But the more it becomes your routine, the better at controlling the mess you'll become. Using an applicator pump helps to control it. If you live with other people, do them a favour and wipe down after use! Just common sense really.Even though the above steps seem time consuming, once you have got the hang of it, you should have everything done within 5-10 minutes or so. I think these fibres would have far more 4-5 star reviews if people followed the above steps.

Very good at making hair look thicker

Brilliant product and the refill is great value. Makes my hair look twice as thick.

Great value for money and lasts for good amount of time.

Have been using this hair fiber for the last 3 years and never had an issue. Only leaving a review now as i thought that's only fair.

Very poor

Really impressed with the quality. I am now converted from the (expensive) leading brand to these
