In this article, we will discuss how wearing a hair topper can help restore confidence. We invited Patricia Wrixon from The Salon at 10 Newbury in Boston, to talk about the psychological impact of wearing a hair topper. Patricia has been in the hair replacement industry for almost 40 years and has worked with countless women who have regained their confidence through wearing one of our pieces. We hope that by reading this article you will be equipped with the knowledge and tools to embark on your own journey towards renewed self-assurance.
What is a hair topper?
Facing the effects of hair loss can be devastating and disorientating. Patricia, with her extensive experience working closely with women living with bald spots, a thinning crown, or loss of hair density, has witnessed the fear and uncertainty that often accompany the journey. Many individuals who experience hair loss find themselves scared by its unpredictability and unsure of when or if it will stop. This uncertainty often leads to a reluctance to participate in social activities they once enjoyed.
“Over the years, I’ve met so many women who don’t want to go out and socialize or date,” says Patricia. “They feel really uncomfortable in themselves.”
Fortunately, there are alternative hair solutions that can transform the way people feel about themselves; modern, versatile hairpieces that are designed to cover areas of hair loss or thinning and blend seamlessly with existing hair to create a fuller, more voluminous look. These hair toppers are worn by clipping them to bio hair and provide a secure fit that allows for natural movement.
Unlike a wig that covers the entire scalp, a hair topper is attached to the top of the head and provides coverage and volume where needed. The very best hair toppers look completely natural and allow individuals to regain control over their appearance, enjoy social interactions, and rebuild their self-confidence.
“Most women who buy a hair topper will feel like it is the biggest game changer,” explains Patricia. “They feel like they’ve regained their confidence and that they can go out and attend events. Their hair loss isn’t holding them back any longer.”
How to find the most natural-looking hair topper
In order to attain the highest level of confidence and fully embrace the transformative nature of a hair topper, it’s essential to have a topper that looks completely natural, fits your head perfectly, and stays secure throughout your day. A top-quality topper should allow you to enjoy life and participate in activities with ease. Whether you’re working out in your topper at the gym, or hiking over mountains, it should integrate seamlessly with your natural hair.
“When you’re thinking about purchasing a human hair topper, you want to have the color, style, texture, and cut match your bio hair so that it will look absolutely natural,” says Patricia.
Hair Type
When searching for the ideal topper, it’s crucial to consider the hair type. European hair is widely regarded as the gold standard due to its exceptional quality, silky texture, and collection methods that ensure the cuticles are intact. Patricia deems a closed cuticle as “the most important part of a hair feature,” and helps offer unmatched realism and smooth texture, and ensure a seamless blend with your existing hair.
Base Size
The base size of the topper is another important factor to consider when choosing a piece. It should be sufficiently large to cover the problem areas without causing any worry that bald spots or thinning areas will be exposed. The right base size provides the confidence to go about your day without constantly adjusting the topper or feeling self-conscious.
Customization
Personalization is key when it comes to achieving the most natural look. Opting for a topper that can be cut and colored to match your existing hair will give you the most undetectable result. Human hair pieces can be colored and cut in exactly the same way as the hair on your head, so whether you want a dark root, face-framing money pieces, or bangs, a human hair topper can be customized to your specific preferences. Unlike human hair, synthetic hair pieces cannot be easily cut or colored, which limits their ability to look completely natural.
“With a human hair topper, you have the ability to personalize it to your own style. You can have it colored, highlighted, low-lighted, or add money pieces around the front. You can have it trimmed into your own hair cut, or face framed, and texturized. All those things are possible with a human hair topper just as with your existing hair,” explains Patricia.
Longevity
If you’re investing in a high-quality topper, it needs to be built to last. You may be asking yourself if a human hair topper is worth the cost, but we can assure you that a premium topper not only provides long-term value but also instills confidence in its reliability. At Daniel Alain, our toppers, for example, last between 2 to 4 years, and often much longer with proper care and maintenance.
“The cost of a human hair piece can sound expensive, but the look is priceless and totally natural,” Patricia concludes.
