How To Hide Hair Loss At The Crown with Pictures
What is the best way for men to hide hair loss at the crown?
Updated 2026
Why is my hair thinning at the crown?
This type of thinning is male pattern baldness also known as androgenic alopecia. While it is a factor of age and genetics, the main driver for the loss on the crown first is simply down to the type of follicles that are on the crown. These follicles are the most sensitive to a male hormone called DHT (dihydrotestosterone) which causes hair follicles to shrink.
How do hair fibres help thinning hair?
A thinning crown is the easiest type of hair loss to hide. Unless you go for a hair transplant or a rug, by far the simplest and most common way to hide a balding patch is to shake in cotton hair thickening fibres, as these give an instant result as seen in the video. Nut Job™ is a hair thickening fibre designed to cover up balding spots, as well as general hair thinning, especially at the crown.
Why are cotton fibres better suited to cover thinning on the crown?
Cotton fibres have a unique level of cling. Due to the electrostatic nature of cotton, the fibres disperse well onto all the individual hair shafts unlike keratin fibres which clump and run. In addition, Nut Job hair fibres are made from the latest technology hair fibres which sets it apart from the older technologies of the keratin fibres.
Step One:
Wash and dry your hair as usual. Using a hair dryer can aid in the success of Step Two but is not mandatory. Brush or comb your hair roughly into shape.
Step Two:
Shake Nut Job™ Hair Thickening Fibres onto dry hair to build up the surface of each hair shaft. No matter how fine that hair is (it can even be nearly non-existent) the fibres will cling to the hair. Continue to shake in the fibres and pat down with your fingers until the area is covered in.
Step Three:
Once you have covered the area, you can add some hair spray if you want to. This will help to keep your style in place all day. But the fibres themselves don't need a spray to stay in. It's up to you.
Nut Job hair fibres stay in place whether you are in wind, rain, sport or ...bed. They are invisible once they have been applied and so no one can see them, even up very close. One application each morning provides a full head of hair all day and until you next wash your hair. They do not compromise scalp health, and in fact hair can grow back while using them if you are also using a topical treatment or an oral medication.
How do hair fibres work on a thinning crown patch?
Hair fibres are hair-like micro fibres made from the cotton plant. They cling to even the finest of hair electrostatically. Simply shake in, blend and you are good to go.
They come in every hair color, and simply shake in to cover any thinning areas.
The best hair fibres are made from cotton like Nut Job™, but beware there are other hair fibres out there that are supposedly made from keratin and claim to resemble the protein in hair. Problem is, they leach out colour. due to being made from an animal bi-product or a chemical concoction created to resemble keratin, they are not colour fast.
Cotton hair fibres are the only fibres that do not run or leach out colour. Cotton hair fibres are completely colour fast - and we take our thinning bits seriously. No colour running down our faces (Mayor Guilliani anyone?).
It is impossible to tell that hair fibres are in place, even close up. All signs of hair loss disappear and you look like you have lots of volume. Thinning hair gone.
Will cotton fibres stay on a bald crown spot in the wind?
That's ok. We get it. We didn't either when we saw something like this for the first time. We thought WTF is this stuff?
It's definitely real, definitely invisible, suits all hair types, can be used by men for male pattern baldness as well as women for female pattern hair loss.

Remarkable, right?
There is no trickery in that video which we think is obvious. We made sure to make it raw.
