Designed to conceal areas on the scalp where there is thinning or baldness—usually at the crown, parting, or top of the hair—a hair topper provides natural-looking coverage, exactly where you need it. While human hair toppers are the most versatile and natural-looking, synthetic toppers are also available. Regardless of the type you choose, discreet and easy-to-use clips make the attachment process simple. These pieces are the perfect confidence booster for anyone experiencing hair thinning or mild hair loss.
Available in a wide selection of styles, lengths, sizes and base types, you’ll always be able to find hair toppers in Toronto to match your degree of hair loss, along with your own personal preferences.
Wigs, toppers and extensions: what’s the difference?
Wigs cover the entire scalp. Extensions add length or volume to the sides and back of the head, while toppers are designed to conceal hair loss or thinning at the top of the head.
How do toppers work?
The topper’s base mimics the appearance of the scalp and clips onto your existing hair to provide coverage. When properly blended, it creates a natural and seamless look.
Hair toppers easily match your existing or desired look and can also boost volume wherever you need it most.
Who can benefit from wearing a hair topper?
Hair toppers are the perfect solution for anyone experiencing thinning or hair loss at the crown, parting, or hairline, provided there is still enough natural hair for attachment.
Whatever the cause of your hair issues, be it down to hormones, medical conditions, or simply your lifestyle, wearing a hair topper helps you regain your confidence without the need for costly surgery.
What types of toppers are available?
Depending on your personal needs, the following types of hair toppers can offer you comfort, breathability and realism:
- Monofilament base
With a base made from thin, breathable mesh, monofilament hair toppers have every strand of hair tied individually, making it appear as if the hair is growing naturally from the scalp. Because this design allows the hair to be parted naturally in any direction, these toppers are versatile, lightweight, and comfortable enough for daily wear. Mono toppers are especially beneficial for those with scalp sensitivity.
- Lace front
With a sheer panel at the front made out of lace, lace front hair toppers also have hand-tied hair that mimics the hairline. These toppers are ideal if you want a seamless look or prefer hairstyles that are swept back away from the forehead.
- Silk base
Silk base toppers offer the most realistic scalp appearance of any hairpiece. They are made using multiple layers of silk to conceal the hair knots, creating the perfect illusion of hair growing directly from your scalp. However, because of this multi-layered design, these toppers are slightly thicker and less breathable than other options.
A hair topper is the ideal solution if you aren’t yet at the stage of needing a women’s hair wig, but want to address thinning or mild hair loss. By providing natural coverage exactly where you need it, these pieces restore your confidence and help you feel like yourself again. For those trying a topper for the first time, visiting a local store is the best way to benefit from professional guidance and in-house support.
