Dean Pinnock has just opened a salon in South London that offers "Lace Hair", which looks real and is an excelent option for people who have lost their hair through cancer treatment. Each person who has lace hair fitted has a consultation first, and this is when such issues are discussed along with the individual needs of each client. Costs do vary for lace hair, depending on what the client chooses, but generally prices start at £200.
