Well, you can style your hair so that it is messy, in which case even if it's shiny, it doesn't really look greasy -- it looks gelled. There are also matte gels and "putties". I believe that all of ...

I have just took a shower with Prothik on my head, and I can now vouch that it, like DermMatch, is waterproof.

Have you considered going full cap? Or maybe even just buying a wig to tide you over, though it's hard to find ones that don't look kind of funky. I have an acquaintance who I'm pretty sure is wear...

I agree that DermMatch will transfer onto things (e.g., your pillow case) if you use a lot of it. I did that for a while to cover like all of my head. But it never came off with water, and is good f...

Toppik is the best for the top of your head, unless you sweat too much. Then DermMatch will be better. Get some of each, and if you end up with Toppik running down your face due to too much sweat, t...
