My only suggestion would be wearing those wide headbands....I think the brand is “Boho”, and they come in beautiful patterns and colors...they can be worn almost as hoods or as neck gaiters or as wide headbands....that would cover up your thin spots, I think. And they’re handy in emergencies! I gave one to a guy who had sprained his ankle hiking and it made it easier for him to hike out! :)

Not what you're looking for?
