Human Hair Toppers: Everything You Need to Know

Human Hair Toppers: Everything You Need to Know 

Hair loss in women is more common than you may think, and it can have significant impacts on self-esteem and confidence. Studies indicate that approximately 40% of women will experience noticeable hair loss by age 50. (Mysore, V., & Shashikumar, B. M., 2016).  

And hair loss isn't just a surface issue. Research shows that hair loss can lead to a significant emotional burden, with one study finding that around 40% of women with hair loss report lower self-esteem and increased levels of depression and anxiety (Hunt, N., & McHale, S., 2005). 

The good news? There are many hair loss products out there now. One option is human hair toppers. In this guide, we'll cover everything you need to know about hair toppers, from what they are to the best options for different hair types.  

What Are Hair Toppers? 

Hair toppers are designed to cover thin hair or balding areas on the top of the head. Unlike full wigs, hair toppers are kind of like half wigs, which blend in with your own hair, providing natural-looking coverage and hair volume. Made from high-quality real human hair, these hair toppers can be heat-styled and washed just like your own hair. They are a great choice for customers experiencing postpartum hair thinning or hair loss due to hormonal changes, genetics, or other factors, and can last up to a year with proper care

How Do Hair Toppers Work? 

The Luxy Hair Topper is secured using an invisible band, clips, and tape (depending on where it sits in relation to your natural hairline and your stage of hair loss), ensuring it stays in place throughout the day. It's made from real human hair, which can be styled and parted just like your own hair.  

Watch the video below for a simple steps guide on how to put on the Hair Topper. 

A note on the Hair Topper Band: The Luxy Hair Topper comes with an adjustable band, which it's important to adjust before wearing the topper for the first time. Watch the below for how to get the band right the first time.  

Best Hair Toppers 

Choosing the right hair topper depends on your specific needs and hair type. Here are some of the best options: 

Curly Hair Toppers 

For those with natural curls, opting for a curly topper — or a Hair Topper made of 100% human hair that can be heat styled — ensures a consistent texture that's a perfect match for your own hair.  

Straight Hair Toppers 

If you have straight hair, a straight hair topper like Luxy's will give you a sleek and natural look. These pieces are easy to style with hot tools, just like your natural hair.  

Gray Hair Toppers 

If you're graying gracefully, you'll need a hair topper that can match your shade. Luxy's Hair Topper comes in both Light and Dark Gray for no-fuss color matching. 

Note on color matching: Luxy understands that getting the right hair extension shade is more than half the battle. We offer many color matching services, including Text a Stylist, Virtual Try-On, Color Matching Quiz, and more.

Hair Toppers Before + After 

Women with various stages of hair loss, types, and lengths use top pieces as a hair replacement to regain their confidence. In fact, research has shown that "wearing wigs and hairpieces has been found to significantly improve the perceived quality of life in female pattern hair loss patients." (PIADS). The video below features the real-life hair topper testimonial and stunning transformation.
