How do I tell my partner about my hair system?
5 min read
Quick answer
Most men find telling a partner is easier than they feared, and daily life gets simpler afterwards: no hiding maintenance, no worrying in the shower. Choose a relaxed moment, explain it simply as a hair replacement like any other grooming choice, and let them ask questions. When you tell someone new is up to you.
Bit of an awkward one. I'm thinking about a hair system but I don't know how I'd tell my girlfriend. Do most men tell their partners?
Not awkward at all. It's one of the most common things men ask us, and many worry about it more than about the system itself. Most men who are in a relationship do tell their partner, and most tell us afterwards that it went far better than they expected.
What's the benefit of telling them though?
Daily life gets easier. You're not hiding maintenance appointments, worrying about being seen after a shower, or avoiding someone touching your hair. A system is worn all the time, and keeping it secret from someone you live with is hard work.
How would I even bring it up?
Pick a relaxed moment, not in the middle of something intimate. Keep it simple: you were losing your hair, you looked at the options and chose a non-surgical hair replacement, the same way someone might choose contact lenses or veneers. Then let them ask questions. Most people are curious more than anything.
And if I'm dating someone new?
That's your call, and there's no rule. Some men mention it early to get it out of the way; others wait until the relationship is serious. What most agree on is not leaving it until someone finds out by accident.
Can my partner come to the consultation?
Of course, if you would like that. Some men find it helps to have them there. Book a confidential consultation at our Mortlake salon and we will take you through how a system works, so you can explain it with confidence.
