Henry's Hair Loss Problems...

As most know now poor Henry has been suffering from the dreaded hair loss syndrome...and we have been getting most depressed about it.  He has rather a large bald patch at the back and another on the side of his head.  In the last month we have bought three brand new wigs and they have really not looked right at all...  We have been unable to find a hair colour to 'match' his remaining hair to do a partial re-root, and Henry thinks this sounds far too painful despite Aunty Marti's recommendation to take some aspirin.  So apart from 'putting up with' bald patches and wearing hats, we were almost ready to give up when a friend suggested he try a (whisper) girl's wig that she would send him...and then it could be cut and styled.  I thought it worth a try.  I didn't tell Henry as I didn't want to get his hopes up...but he got to the post before me!

Henry was puzzled to find something addressed to him as he wasn't expecting anything.  He wonders what is inside.

Oh, what is this?

A wig!

He tries it on.

Hmm..what do you think?

A little bit dark but the style is better than the others he has tried.

Thousands of colours and still no match!

Just before the Sasha Festival Henry took the opportunity to see if he could find some suitable hair...

We went in several shops, the last having literally thousands of colours avaiable.

Nope not suitable

Henry waits patiently to be served

Checks out his reflection in the mirror...

So many balding places, surely they will have something here for me?  He thinks.

Well despite the variety of colours and the kind patient lady behind the counter who pulled many colours out of the stack to try and find a match, nothing was found to blend in with Henry's hair colour.

He thought he had found a 'Locks of Love' donor at the Festival as well, but the hair was too brittle.

What ARE we going to do about your hair Henry?

We were so hoping with the variety available over in the USA that we would find a match so that missing hair plugs could be filled as and when the hair comes out so that the change in Henry's hair style would be gradual and that he could retain his look which is so well known now.  Sadly that wasn't the case and with several actual rather large bald patches now we are just not sure quite what to do.

Henry's hair colour seems to be different from all my other brunette boys and most of the girls as well we have seen.  What to do is a conundrum.
