Density Standards at GentHair
These density levels represent the amount of hair integrated into the system, with Extra Light being the thinnest and Extra Heavy providing the fullest coverage
How Age Affects Hair Density Choice
As we age, our natural hair density tends to decrease. Here’s a general guideline based on age:
If you’re younger and your natural hair is thick, a Medium Light (115%) to Medium (130%) density is ideal. For those in their 40s or 50s, a Medium Light (90%-100%) density is more appropriate for a balanced look. Choosing a density that's not too heavy will create a more natural, subtle appearance.
How Hair System Base Affects Density Choice
Different bases can support different amounts of hair. For example, an ultra-thin skin base is best suited for lighter densities, while a Mono or Silk Base can accommodate heavier densities.

Blend with Your Natural Hair for a Seamless Look
For men experiencing male pattern baldness, it's common to have thicker hair on the sides while the top may be thinner or bald. In these cases, it’s important to select a hair system density that blends naturally with the existing thickness of your hair. You can send us pictures of your current hair, and our experts at support@genthair.com will guide you in choosing the perfect density that ensures a smooth and seamless match.
FAQ

Q2: Can different parts of the unit have different densities?
Yes. Varying densities can create a more natural look.We can make this happen with a custom order.
Q3: What hair density is recommended for first-time users of a hair system?
For first-time users, it's best to start with a medium light density (around 90% to 115%). This range provides a natural look that closely mimics the average thickness of adult men’s hair.
