Many women are experiencing hair loss at the crown due to covid, PCOS, stress, genetics and so on, but as a stylist you know these women cannot be helped with extensions. That is where toppers come in! You don’t need to stress about how to help these women any longer because toppers are the answer!
What is a topper you ask? Hair toppers have a base allowing it to be clipped in at the top of the head concealing any thinning or hair loss in that area. Wigs are used for women with total hair loss or women who want to completely cover their hair, whereas a topper is made to blend in with your existing hair achieving an extremely natural look. With toppers, women can have the hair of their dreams in seconds.
Toppers have caught the eye of many consumers in recent years but their needs are not being met in salons across the US. That is why UniWigs is stepping into salons by offering in person trainings. This course is the first of its kind and we don’t plan on stopping there!
As a stylist stepping into this untouched area in the industry you are setting your salon and expertise above the rest. Stop sending women with hair loss away because you don’t have the tools to help them. Join us in the alternative hair world, there is so much more available than you realize!
