What is a Hair Topper?

How to Wear Hair Toppers

A hair topper is a small hairpiece made with real human hair or high-quality synthetic fibers. It typically covers the crown or hairline area of the head, where hair thinning or loss might be most noticeable.  Hair toppers come in various sizes, colors, and styles to blend seamlessly with your natural hair.

Why Choose a Hair Topper?

There are many reasons why people choose to wear hair toppers. Here are a few:

  • Conceal Hair Thinning or Loss:  Hair toppers offer a natural-looking way to cover areas of hair thinning or loss. They can boost your confidence and help you feel comfortable expressing yourself through different hairstyles.
  • Non-Surgical Solution:  Unlike hair transplants, hair toppers are a non-surgical and non-invasive way to address hair loss.  They’re a great option for those who are not ready to commit to surgery or prefer a more affordable solution.
  • Versatility:  Hair toppers come in a variety of styles, lengths, and colors. You can find one that perfectly matches your natural hair, allowing you to experiment with different looks without damaging your own hair.

How to Wear Hair Toppers?

Wearing a hair topper is a simple process that can be done in minutes. Here’s a step-by-step guide:

  1. Prep Your Hair:  Start by brushing your natural hair to remove any tangles and create a smooth base for the topper.  Depending on your desired style, you can part your hair or leave it loose.
  2. Open the Clips:  Most hair toppers have pressure-sensitive clips or combs on the underside.  Open all the clips before positioning the topper on your head.
  3. Position the Topper:  Hold the topper at your desired placement, typically slightly behind your hairline.  Many people find it easiest to position the front edge first and then gently secure the back clips.
  4. Secure the Clips:  Once you’re happy with the placement, gently press down on each clip to secure it to your hair.  Make sure the clips feel comfortable and secure, but not too tight.
  5. Blend and Style:  Once the topper is secure, gently blend your natural hair with the hair topper using a brush or comb. You can style your hair as usual, incorporating the topper for a natural and voluminous look.

Tips for Wearing Hair Toppers

  • Match Your Hair Color:  For a natural look, choose a hair topper that closely matches your natural hair color.  If you have highlights or lowlights, consider a topper with similar variations.
  • Start Small:  If you’re new to hair toppers, it’s best to start with a smaller size and gradually increase coverage as needed. This will help you get comfortable with the feel and weight of the topper.
  • Take Care of Your Topper:  Just like your natural hair, hair toppers require proper care.  Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for washing and conditioning your topper to maintain its quality and appearance.
  • Consult a Stylist:  A professional stylist at VIP Hair Salon can help you choose the perfect hair topper for your needs and show you how to wear it for a natural and comfortable fit.
