If you still have good hair on the sides and back, go with a topper.

Your hair doesn't grow that fast. Even if you get frequent haircuts, that's still 4 weeks. Most guys go up to 8 weeks.

I have guys that come into my barber shop that wear hairpieces. They just come in and get their side and back hair cut and hit the road. Not too big of a deal. Most barbers are used to that.
