I Could See My Scalp in Every Photo

I Could See My Scalp in Every Photo. Now No One Can Tell.

After years of hiding my thinning part under buns and bad lighting, I found a thinning cover cream that covers it the same morning and stays for over a week. No powders, no pills, no waiting months.

By Karen, 53, as told in her own words.

The first time I really saw it, it was in a photo my daughter took.

If you have ever lifted your hair in the mirror, seen your scalp where it never used to show, and felt your stomach drop, you already know how I felt.

For me it did not happen overnight. It started around menopause. My part got a little wider every year, my ponytail got thinner, and I started dodging photos and overhead light. I kept telling myself nobody notices, even though it was the first thing I saw every morning.

Why nothing I tried actually worked

I tried the powders, the colored sprays, the root touch-up sticks. They all just sit on top of your hair, so they rubbed off on my pillow, looked dusty up close, and the first time I got caught in the rain or had a hot flash, they ran down my forehead. Most were not even matched to my shade, so they read as a flat patch of color instead of real hair.

"They rubbed off on my pillow and never once looked like my real hair." If you have thought this too, you are not doing it wrong. The product is wrong.

What the powders really do the second you sweat or get caught in the rain: they run, in front of everyone.

What finally changed it for me: a cream, not a powder

Instead of dusting powder on top, a cover cream is worked into the hair you still have. It grips the hair, not your scalp, dries to a natural matte finish in your own color, and because it bonds instead of sitting on top, it does not wash out in the rain or come off on your pillow. The one I use is called PRYME, a cosmetic thinning cover cream made for the part, the crown and the temples.

How I use it: 30 minutes, once a week

  1. I part my hair where the thinning shows, the same way I already do.
  2. I press a small amount of the cream into the thin areas with my fingertips, blending along the part and the temples.
  3. I let it set for about 30 minutes while I have my coffee. It dries to a matte, natural finish, and once it is set it is waterproof and stays put for over a week.

A wider part before, an even part after. Same hair, same morning, nothing regrown, simply covered. It works the same way for postpartum and stress shedding.

Why I am never going back to powders

  • ✓
    It looks like my hair, not makeup. Matched to my shade, matte finish, no dusty cast.
  • ✓
    It does not run or wash out. Rain, humidity, hot flashes, a workout, it holds once it sets.
  • ✓
    It stays off my pillow and my clothes. Because it grips the hair, not the scalp.
  • ✓
    I can wear my hair down again. Or tie it back. The part and the temples stay covered either way.
  • ✓
    No pills, no commitment, no waiting. I saw the result the same morning.
  • ✓
    Once a week, not every morning. One application holds for over a week, and one bottle covers many applications.
You do not need to regrow your hair to feel like yourself again. You just need to cover what is thin, today.

I am not the only one

I almost did not believe the reviews until it worked on me. Here are a few other women, with their real before and after photos.

My hair at the top of my head has been very thin since menopause. I only wore buns to hide it. With PRYME I can wear my hair down. It sounds like a small thing but for me it is enormous.

I have been losing my hair since my second pregnancy and it never really grew back. PRYME perfectly covers my part and the top of my head. I feel like myself again in the morning. Not having that thing weighing on me when I look in the mirror really changes the rest of the day.

My hair has been fine my whole life and I have tried dozens of powders, sprays and fibers. Either they stain, itch, or disappear at the first gust of wind. PRYME is the first thing that truly stays in place and makes my hair look visually thicker. I did not know a product like this existed.

The questions I get asked the most

Will it actually match my color?
PRYME comes in 7 shades: Black, Black Brown, Dark Brown, Medium Brown, Light Brown, Blonde and Gray. Pick the one closest to the hair around your part. It blends into your own hair rather than sitting on top, so it reads as natural density even if your shade is between two colors. The 60-day guarantee lets you try a shade risk free.
Does it come off on my pillow or in the rain?
No. Once it sets it is waterproof and stays on the hair, not the scalp, so it holds through rain, humidity, hot flashes and sleep, and only comes off when you wash it out with shampoo.
My thinning started with menopause. Will it work for me?
Yes. PRYME covers thinning, it does not treat it, so it works whatever the cause: menopause, postpartum, thyroid changes, stress or weight loss. You see the result the same morning.
Will it regrow my hair?
No, and I will not pretend it does. PRYME is a cosmetic cover cream that covers thinning the same day. A lot of us use it as a bridge while we wait on a treatment or for our hair to settle.
Is it safe for my scalp?
It is plant-based, for external cosmetic use, and sits gently on the hair. If your skin is very sensitive, do a quick patch test first.
How long does one bottle last?
One application holds for over a week, so you only do it once a week. Most women pick the Buy 2, Get 2 Free pack: 4 bottles, about 4 months covered.
