Introduction

It is a common belief that wearing hair toppers can be a great choice to cover balding patches seamlessly. However, many a customer has been held back from buying one even though they are eager to conceal the thinning hair. This is because there are some common misconceptions in their mind. For example, they may think it would be easy for others to distinguish their hair accessories from their bio hair. Although these ideas may sound reasonable at first glance, however, when given further consideration, they soon become groundless. Let’s take a look at six major misconceptions of hair toppers and see if you have been cheated by them.

Six main misconceptions about hair toppers

1. Damage or prevent hair growing

One of the major misconceptions is that some people are not convinced of the safety of hair pieces. To put it in other words, they are worried that after wearing hair toppers, their natural hair would be prevented from growth. The truth is that, on the contrary, if given full consideration, wearing hair toppers won’t be a big issue to our bio hair. In some cases where people insist that they have suffered from wearing hair accessories, the bad influence usually arises from unsuitable attachment methods. For instance, using clips will bring tension or irritation to one’s bio hair that is unable to cope with the added pressure. In this case, it is recommended that they wear a hair topper with a halo wire which is connected by a thin, clear nylon wire and is undetectable by others.

2. Suffocate the scalp

Some other people believe that the thick toppers will bring about scalp irritation and hair suffocation, which will further cause severe hair loss. The worry is understandable but with high-quality materials and skilled craftsmanship, hair pieces become much more breathable and lightweight than they used to be. Long gone are the days when we had to wear heavy and airtight hair accessories everywhere we went. Based on our budget, we can choose the most suitable and comfortable one without worrying about the side effects.

3. Look unnatural

Some people even doubt the natural appearance of hair toppers. They hold the belief that after being quickly recognized by others, these wiglets will definitely put themselves in an awkward position. There is completely no need to worry. With advanced technology, hair toppers can be blended naturally with our existing hair. Moreover, hair toppers come in human hair, synthetic, and heat-friendly hair options. These types allow the toppers to closely resemble our own hair. Next time when you wear a hairpiece, what you can receive is nothing but a compliment for your charming hairstyle.

4. Not flexible in hairstyle

Some say buying a hair topper is the end of hair styling. I dare say it is not the case. Actually, choosing a suitable wiglet is the beginning of hair fashion. Among all the types, synthetic toppers are a great option as they come in wavy, curly, and straight textures and thus they can help you redefine the fashion in your name. In a word, hair toppers provide a whole new possibility for us and exploit our imagination in the field of restyling our hair.

5. Extremely expensive

A considerable number of customers may be discouraged from buying hair accessories simply because of their glossy appearance. This is because they blindly equal glossy appearance to unaffordable price. In fact, the price fluctuates depending on different types of base types (skin base, silk base, mono base, lace base, etc.) and other components such as ways of installation.

6. Excessively hard to care for

Others may hesitate in front of the hair shops because they believe it would be extremely time-consuming to maintain the hair enhancers. The truth is that it is no more complicated than taking care of our bio hair as long as we avoid some circumstances and choose the suitable method for maintenance.

Tips for minimal damage when using hair toppers

Here are some tips for high-quality maintenance of hair pieces.

Dos:

1. Remember to wash them regularly based on how often you wear them.
2. It is advisable to use an old hair topper when we are swimming as this sport may shorten the lifespan of hair extensions.
3. Use a paddle brush and start from the bottom to avoid damage to hair accessories.
4. Gently install and remove the hair toppers when we use clips or glue.

Don’ts:

1. Do not store them in direct sunlight.
2. Do not use a high heat setting to restyle our human hair toppers.

Conclusion

In a nutshell, hair toppers are worthy of use. Let’s review the benefits of them: they can effortlessly conceal our thinning hair and rock any hairstyle we please so as to help us reclaim our confidence. It is believed that all misconceptions result from unfamiliarity. The same should go for the misinterpretations of women’s hair toppers. Only when we become familiar with these magic hair extensions can we finally say no to groundless beliefs.
