Will Wearing a Topper Damage My Hair?
No, hair toppers will not harm your natural hair. In fact, they help protect your hair from further damage as they’re much less strenuous on your biological locks than a wig. However, if you have extremely delicate hair that breaks easily, the added pressure of a topper might not be beneficial. In such cases, a wig might be a safer option.

- Adjust your topper as necessary until you’re happy with its placement.

Should a Hair Topper Be Longer Than Your Hair?
Not usually — When searching for the best topper, you want to have a length that’s as close to your biological locks as possible. This ensures a natural, seamless blend.A topper can also be a great way to add in a layer, as long as it's not too short compared to your natural hair length.
How Often Should You Wash Your Human Hair Topper?
That depends! If you wear your hair topper daily or use hair care products regularly, then washing your topper once a week is the way to go. For those who only rock their topper occasionally, a wash every two to four weeks will do the trick.
Is a Wig or Topper Better?
Choosing a wig or topper depends on your preferences..A hair topper is a small, lightweight piece that blends into your existing hair to conceal thinning spots or add volume. They’re lighter, less expensive, and easier to take on and off.
A wig covers your entire scalp and conceals your natural hair entirely. They provide full coverage and can be styled in any way you like.
Can You Get Hair Toppers Wet?
Regular washing is part of proper maintenance for your hair topper. However, exposure to chlorine, salt water, or other harsh chemicals encountered while swimming or showering can potentially damage your topper beyond repair.
How Much Hair is Needed to Wear a Topper?
A topper is a partial hairpiece that covers a portion of the scalp. It’s secured to your natural strands with clips at the topper’s base, so you should have strong, adequate hair here to securely attach it. If you don’t, no worries! It just means you may be better suited to wearing a wig.
What Are the Different Types of Human Hair Toppers?
Human hair toppers are made from a variety of hair types, each with their own unique benefits. Here’s a quick overview of the most common hair types you might come across while shopping for human hair toppers:
European Hair
European hair wigs and toppers are the crème de la crème of hair types. As the most luxurious option, European hair is ultra-soft, silky, and incredibly durable. This type of hair is the most expensive because it’s sourced exclusively from select villages in Russia and Ukraine, making them truly one-of-a-kind.
Not all manufacturers have access to the type of hair. Daniel Alain is the only brand to source the finest strands directly from our very own private reserve.
Indian Hair
Indian hair is another popular hair type in quality wigs and toppers. It is thick, more textured than European hair, and easy to style. This hair type also tends to be more affordable because it’s sourced from women who shave their heads for religious reasons — making it readily accessible.
It’s important to note that this hair type is typically limited to darker shades. Because it’s more textured, it also might not feel as silky as European hair.
Asian Hair
If you lead a busy, active lifestyle, Asian hair toppers are a great choice. These strands are ultra-straight, soft, and incredibly strong. It can be styled in a variety of ways but lacks the versatility of European and Indian hair.
Sourcing is also a drawback, as many Asian hair wigs and toppers use “waste hair” that's been collected from brushes, swept up from salon floors, or extracted from drains.
At Daniel Alain, we’re committed to using only ethically-sourced hair in all of our products. Unfortunately, not all brands hold themselves to the same standards.
Virgin Hair
Virgin hair is the purest form of hair you can find and is highly coveted for its natural beauty and versatility. Unfortunately, it's becoming increasingly rare to find virgin hair that’s never been chemically treated or styled.
If you're lucky enough to come across authentic virgin hair, consider it a true treasure. Remember to research and be wary of brands making grandiose claims.
Remy Hair
Remy hair is the next best thing after European hair. This type of hair is cuticle-correct, meaning the strands flow in a uniform direction preventing tangles and matting.
Remy hair can be European, Indian, or Asian.
At Daniel Alain, we’re proud to exclusively offer 100% Remy human hair toppers.
