toupees
Bald spot concealers
Toupees are hairpieces worn to cover baldness, typically by men.
The word carries a slight comic or unflattering connotation—a toupee is often something others notice and the wearer hopes they won't: His toupee shifted in the wind.
Unlike a wig, which covers the whole head, a toupee covers only a bald spot.
