Question 1

1. WHAT ARE HAIR TOPPERS?

Accepted Answer

Hair toppers are a smart solution for those dealing with thinning hair or hair loss. They are partial wigs or hairpieces designed to blend seamlessly with your natural hair. Ideal for covering thinning areas on the top of the head, hair toppers restore volume and fullness, providing a realistic hairline for a natural look. Unlike full wigs, hair toppers focus on targeted areas, making them a discreet and comfortable option for enhancing your hair's appearance. They are perfect for anyone looking to add volume without committing to a full wig.

2. HOW DO HAIR TOPPERS WORK?

Accepted Answer

Hair toppers are designed to blend seamlessly with your natural hair to cover thinning or balding areas. Here’s how they work:

Attachment: Hair toppers can be secured using clips, tape, or other methods depending on the design. They are attached to your natural hair or scalp to stay in place.

Blending: The topper blends with your existing hair to create a natural look. The base of the topper is designed to match your hair color and texture, ensuring it integrates smoothly.

Coverage: Toppers provide targeted coverage for specific areas such as the crown, top, or front. They add volume and fullness where your natural hair may be thinning.

Customization: Hair toppers come in various base types, shapes, and sizes to suit different needs and preferences. They can be styled and adjusted to match your desired look.

Ease of Use: They are lighter and less bulky than full wigs, making them a comfortable and convenient option for daily wear.

Overall, hair toppers offer a practical and natural-looking solution for enhancing your hair’s appearance.

Color Matching Tips:

Tip #1:
Carefully review all the photos in different lighting and read the color descriptions. Remember that phone settings can also affect how colors appear. If you're unsure, ask our customer representatives for help with a color match.

Tip #2:
The most important part of choosing your color is to match your roots. You can usually blend an array of dimensional colors as long as your roots match.

Tip #3:
Find a stylist, whether local or someone who accepts mail-in orders, to do a custom color for you. Remember, most toppers can be darkened but cannot be lightened. If doing a custom color, start with a piece that is the lightest color you want in your hair and have the stylist darken around that color.

Frequency of Use: Regular wear can affect the topper’s lifespan.

Question 6

6. CAN HAIR TOPPERS BE COLORED?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can dye our hair toppers darker, but we do not recommend lightening them. If you have a specific color in mind, we suggest purchasing a dark blonde or similar shade and having your hairdresser darken it to match your natural hair.

We recommend ordering a shade that is similar to your natural hair but slightly lighter. This will help prevent the color from fading too quickly after dyeing.

If you choose to lighten the topper with bleach, please test a small strand in an inconspicuous area first to ensure the desired result.
