We understand how overwhelming it can feel when you first explore the world of hair toppers. With so many types of hair toppers available, it’s hard to know where to begin. Our aim is to help you feel confident about your hair topper purchase—whether it’s your first, you’ve had a past experience, or you’re ready for something new. We’re here to guide you, ensuring your experience is positive and life-changing.

Step 1: Explore Hair Topper Base Constructions

Hair toppers come in several types:

• Silk Tops: Offer realistic part lines but can feel slightly bulky.

• Mono Tops: Lightweight and breathable, providing natural volume.

• Lace Tops: Transparent for a realistic hairline but may need adhesive for a secure fit.

• Skin Tops: Realistic parting, an affordable alternative to silk hair toppers.

Step 2: Think about Coverage, Not Head Size

Choose topper sizes based on the level of coverage you need. A larger cap provides more hair than a smaller one. If you’re looking to add length to your natural hair, I suggest choosing a larger cap for extra density, which helps prevent the ends from appearing thin or stringy.

 Step 3: Color Match

A seamless blend starts with matching the roots. We recommend:

• Check the website product photos & videos: Phone settings and lighting can alter how colors appear.

• Customize if Needed: Work with a stylist for the perfect match, noting that toppers can be darkened but not lightened.

Does your hair topper have to be exactly a match for bio hair? The answer is NO! It depends on a couple of factors: 

Step 4: Manage Expectations

It’s normal for toppers to have “box hair” upon arrival—styling and customization are often necessary. Embrace the learning curve with practice and patience, and work with a stylist to achieve a natural look.
