However, do you know how to protect hair topper extensions? Do you know how to keep your hairpiece to stay healthy and shiny? Here are some tips on getting the best looking and feeling hair extensions topper possible.

1. How To Care For Human Hair Toppers?

Similar to your bio hair, topper hair extensions need your sincere love. Below are some of our recommendations to make your wiglet look natural and healthy.

1.1. Use hair care products for human hairpieces.

You should use only products designed especially for human hair wiglets. The shampoos that contain harsh chemicals can decrease the lifespan of your hair topper. We recommend investing in suitable and high-quality products to maintain your hairpiece.

Conditioners are necessary as they can keep your hair shiny and smooth. However, you don’t have to apply conditioner to the roots of your hairpiece, only from the mid-length to tips.

1.2. Keep the piece clean.

Experts recommend washing your lace hair topper every 7-14 days of wear. If you shampoo your hair frequently, its lifespan is shortened. Before washing the piece, gently brush your hair to detangle any knots. Ensure that you only use a comb designed for topper hair extensions.

wash your hair topper on a regular basis

Wet the hair thoroughly and shampoo in a downwards direction. Remember to use cold or lukewarm water to clean your hair. Apply a small amount of shampoo over the hairpiece then rinse out with water. 

When washing topper hair extensions, you SHOULDN’T:

– Rub or pull your hairpiece because it can cause tangling and shedding problems.

– If you have wavy hair topper, do not brush it before washing. If you brush it without conditioner, the hair will rough and ruffle quickly.

1.3. Air-dry the topper as much as possible.

Air-drying is better for your hair overall. This drying method can be convenient and can prevent long-term damage due to heat-styling as well.

Use a blower at the lowest heating level to dry is possible. Let blow-dry your hairpiece about 95% and leave the other 5% to dry on its own. Don’t blow-dry your hair completely because it can make your hair dry quickly. To protect your wiglet, apply a thin layer of heat protectant serums before drying.

1.4. Don’t brush hair topper extensions when they are wet.

Like your natural hair, don’t pull or brush your hair when it is still wet. It can cause the hairpiece to stretch and permanent damage. Use a wide-tooth comb to brush instead of a regular comb.

1.5. Style your hair topper extensions

Unlike synthetic fibers, real human hair toppers can be dyed, bleached, and styled easily. However, you also shouldn’t excessively style it.

don’t over-style your hair topper

After the hair system is dry, you can use heated styling tools like curling irons, flat irons, etc. It is excellent to use styling products that are specifically designed for hair toppers. 

1.6. Hair toppers when sleeping

You shouldn’t sleep when wearing the topper as it may result in hair loss, breakage and matting. Having cotton pillowcases when sleeping can help prevent friction and protect your hair from tangling. Or wrap the topper in a silk scarf also helps with the friction. Gently brush your tangles so that hair extension matting won’t occur.

1.7. Store your hair carefully

If you don’t go out, let your natural hair and a topper a break time. Take off your hairpiece and store it on a stand or mannequin head. 

– Make sure the hairpiece is clean and dry before storing it.
