Adverse scalp health effects such as contact dermatitis...Even the few hairs come out

Famous wig products sold on the market are found to threaten scalp health, including various contact dermatitis and hair loss, requiring consumers' attention.

Regarding this, the company says there is no problem, but there are warnings among experts that wigs can cause secondary hair loss.

◆ Side effects 'quickly' with wig industry growth

According to related industries on the 29th, the domestic wig market is estimated at 400 billion won. Sales of parent companies that dominate the market continue to grow rapidly, recording △51.8 billion won in 2009 △52.9 billion won in 2010 △ 56.7 billion won last year.

There are various forms of wearing wigs such as adhesives, clips, and buttons. The price is beyond imagination. In the case of customized wigs, it has been confirmed that products exceeding millions of won are also on the market.

The problem is that the number of side effects such as contact dermatitis, traction hair loss, and seborrheic dermatitis is on the rise as well as the increased consumer. Most of them suffer from poor sweat discharge due to wearing wigs in the hot summer, causing hair loss or causing wig attachments to the scalp.

Inadequate sweat discharge causes stress, which promotes hair loss or tangle hair contaminated with sweat, which develops into secondary hair loss. In addition, there are many cases where clips and buttons press the scalp and develop the wound into inflammation. It is analyzed that the gout of the wig itself is not smooth, so it acts as an obstacle to the treatment of inflammation.

He chose a wig because of hair loss, but rather encourages hair loss due to various side effects.

Choi Hae-mi, a public relations officer, said, "To prevent side effects, users should wash wigs and take care of the scalp on their own," adding, "We are making the wig mesh material thin for ventilation."

There are many voices of warning among experts.

"If sweat cannot be released due to wearing a wig, it can cause irritation of the scalp and lead to secondary hair loss," said Choi Dong-ki, head of Kyunghee Bom Oriental Medicine Clinic. "In the case of button-type wigs, they cause scalp wounds and inflammation."

"Even if the wig is thin, side effects such as hair loss can be caused," Choi said. "This is because communication is not as smooth as when the wig is not used (even if the material is thin)."

He continued, "The scalp should supply oxygen well," and "It is good for scalp health if you take off your wig as often as possible."
