The CNC Hair System is like no other hair topper, wig, or hair system you have ever experienced. If you are looking for the highest quality, most natural, most undetectable solution to thinning hair and hair loss, you have found it!
The CNC Hair System is a prosthetic hair system designed to replicate your natural scalp and hair; allowing the hair system to blend seamlessly and undetectably with your growing hair. Through innovative technology, detailed design, and the customisation of every detail, the CNC Hair System is tailored to meet your unique needs. The result of this highly specialised approach is a solution to thinning hair and hair loss that makes you feel like you, without compromise.
The CNC Hair System is designed and created using innovative 3D technology. The design begins with an analysis of the characteristics of your scalp and growing hair. Our team then outlines and designs the size and shape of your CNC on your head to ensure that your CNC fits you and your unique needs perfectly. We then use a 3D scanner to capture the exact contour of your head and scalp, ensuring a perfect fit between your scalp and your CNC once attached. The measurements are then sent to CRLAB headquarters in Bologna, Italy where 3D printing technology uses your measurements to create a 3D mold of your head shape. The mold is then used to create the base of the CNC Hair System. This technology is simply unmatched and provides a level of security, comfort, and natural appearance that has no comparison.
The CNC Hair System is designed to replicate the appearance of your natural scalp and growing hair. There are no knots or lace used in the creation of the CNC. Instead, the CNC is made from a thin resin that is colour matched to the tone of your skin. Each single hair is hand injected into the base of the CNC Hair System, carefully replicating the distribution and directionality of your own natural hair growth. This second scalp is visible throughout the entire system, giving you the flexibility to style and part your hair in any way while maintaining the look of natural scalp.
The quality of the hair used in the CNC Hair System is just as incredible as the second scalp. The hair strands used in your CNC are matched to the density, colour, texture, wave pattern, and denier of your natural growing hair; making it virtually impossible to differentiate between the hair in your CNC and your growing hair. Only virgin, unprocessed human hair is used in each CNC. CNC hair arrives in its natural state, free from any colour or chemical processing, allowing the hair to maintain its colour, hydration, and softness. As a result, CNC hair can be cut, styled, and coloured by our team with absolutely no limitations.
The CNC Hair System is incredibly versatile in the way that it can be attached, truly offering an attachment option for every lifestyle. There are several secure attachment methods, customised based on each person’s scalp condition, lifestyle, preferences, and hair goals. We offer several methods of daily attachment for those who want to put on and take off their CNC Hair System daily and a semi-permanent attachment with the CNC bonding attachment that allows the CNC Hair System to stay on for up to 4 weeks at a time.
Once the CNC Hair System is applied through our bonding attachment, there are NO limitations on your hair style, lifestyle or activity level. You can securely and confidently live your life without a second thought about your hair. From yoga to scuba diving to having your hair done for your best friend’s wedding and riding the water slide with your kids on your summer vacation — the CNC bonding attachment offers true freedom from worry about your hair.
Élan Hair Studio is proud to offer the latest innovation in hair extension technology, the CNC XT. The CNC XT is a seamless and undetectable hair extension system that gives you the same volume and length as traditional hair extensions but without the need for tape, microlinks, or wefts. The XT is made with 3D scanning and 3D printing technology to match your scalp precisely, ensuring a perfect fit that is completely undetectable. There is no compromise with the CNC XT. Its technologically advanced design allows you to wear your hair in any style you desire without the risk of exposing your extensions.
Only premium quality virgin hair is used in the CNC XT hair extension. Your CNC XT is precisely matched to a sample of your growing hair. The CNC XT arrives at the studio in its natural state, free from any colour or chemical processing. Our team can then customise your hair and CNC XT together to create any colour technique or style you desire.
The CNC Hair System is hand made by a team of skilled artisans in Bologna, Italy where the CRLAB manufacturing facility is headquartered. This process takes time, but it’s worth the wait! Typical lead time from the day we do your measurements to the day you receive your hair for the first time is between 4-6 months.
Yes! The CNC Hair System is a great option for women with Alopecia Areata, Alopecia Totalis, or Alopecia Universales. For women with complete hair loss, the CNC is designed to provide full coverage much like a full wig but with fewer limitations when it comes to lifestyle factors like swimming and exercising.
The CNC Hair System is a great solution for people with curly hair! We know that it can be very difficult to find hair toppers and wigs with curly hair on the market. The options are far more limited than they are for people with slightly wavy or straight hair. We often must chemically perm toppers and wigs to create wavy or curly hair. However, this is not the case with the CNC. The hair used in the CNC Hair System is raw virgin hair that goes straight from a ponytail into the CNC. This means that the hair will have natural curl and will never be chemically permed. We send a hair sample and photos of your natural curl pattern to the factory and CRLAB uses this information to choose natural curly hair for your CNC that matches your growing hair.
Yes, this is one of the things that truly sets the CNC apart from other options. Our team will analyze the characteristics of your natural hair during the design process and we will have your CNC created with hair that matches your own natural hair. Whether you have super fine hair or very course hair, your CNC hair will be chosen to match your natural hair for a seamless blend.
Absolutely. It is not uncommon for chemo to have a lasting impact on the density and quality of your hair, even after it has grown back. We can design a CNC Hair System for you that gives you just enough hair to bring back the fullness you had prior to treatment.
Yes! A small CNC can give you the extra volume you feel like you have lost over the years due to hormonal changes from perimenopause and menopause. The added density from the CNC Hair System can transform the way you feel about your hair and your style.
Yes, absolutely. Regardless of the reason for your hair loss and no matter the stage you are at – the CNC can be customized to meet your needs. If thinning in your part line is your primary concern, we can create a very small CNC that just provides added volume in that specific area!
We work with many clients who deal with hair loss from trichotillomania. Our approach with the CNC is not one size fits all. We will create a plan based on your unique situation, since hair loss from trichotillomania can be so different from person to person. Some clients choose the CNC bonding attachment and use the CNC as a tool to allow their natural hair to grow back and grow out underneath the system. Other clients choose the daily attachment and wear their CNC over their natural hair to get extra density to cover thinner spots in their hair. Many clients dealing with trichotillomania come to us after having worn their hair in ponytails or headbands for years to try to conceal thin spots. With a CNC Hair System, you can wear your hair the way you want to, with no worry about concealing thin spots.
Yes! We partner with Cherry to offer payment plan options.
Possibly. Some health insurance companies do provide coverage for wigs, toppers, and the CNC Hair System. Every insurance is different. We can provide you with detailed instructions for contacting your insurance to see what type of coverage might be available to you. If your insurance does provide coverage – our studio will still be considered an out of network provider because we do not work directly with health insurance companies. This means that you will pay us directly for your new hair and then submit your receipt and invoice to your health insurance company for reimbursement.
