Not sure which topper is right for your client?

Complete guide: silk vs mono vs mesh base, application steps & salon tips

Salon FAQs

Silk base (best): completely undetectable knots, ideal for parting and styling any direction. Mono base (good): natural knot appearance, breathable, best value. Mesh base (standard): lightweight, invisible roots, excellent for volume loss at the crown. Match to your client's level of hair loss and budget.

Yes — all our toppers can be worn daily with proper care. For clients with significant hair loss, we recommend removing the topper at night to extend its lifespan. With daily wear, expect the base to last 6–12 months before requiring replacement.

Layer, texturise, and thin the connection point between the topper and natural hair using point-cutting shears. Colour the topper 1 shade lighter than the client's darkest natural tone for the most natural blend. For clients with grey hair, apply a root smudge product at the part.

💼 Salon Professional Insights — What Your Clients Need to Know

📏

Base Size Matters. Choosing the right base size is the most important decision. Small (4"×5") covers a localised thinning spot; Medium (5"×6") handles general crown thinning; Large (6"×7") is ideal for more advanced thinning across the top; XL (7"×8") provides full top coverage. Always assess the client's scalp in natural light before recommending.

🎨

Colour Matching Rule. Always match to the client's mid-lengths and ends — NOT the roots. If the client has multi-tonal hair, consider ordering two shades to blend together. Our 30+ colour range covers every common UK salon shade. Free colour swatches are available for trade customers.

✂️

Cutting & Blending. The topper should always be cut and layered by a stylist to blend with the client's natural hair. Cut it before fitting to frame the face; layer it after fitting for seamless integration. This service is a premium upsell opportunity — charge £20–£40 for a topper cut-in.

💷

Retail Pricing for Salons. Recommend a retail price of 1.8–2.2× your wholesale cost. For example: a Silk Base bought at £89 can be retailed at £159–£196. Topper application and styling services add another £30–£80 per appointment. These are high-margin products with minimal wastage.

How to Apply a Hair Topper — Step by Step

Assess & Prepare

Identify the thinning area. Part the hair to expose the crown or affected zone. Ensure the client's natural hair is clean, dry, and free of heavy styling products.

Select & Position

Place the topper over the thinning area. Ensure the base covers the entire affected zone with a 1–2cm margin. Check that the hairline or front edge sits naturally against the scalp.

Secure with Clips

Open the pressure clips and position them on the client's natural hair around the base perimeter. Close each clip firmly — silicone lining prevents slipping. For Mesh Base, an optional adhesive strip can be used at the front edge.

Blend & Style

Comb the topper hair gently into the client's natural hair. Use a curling wand or straightener to blend textures. Cut and layer the topper to frame the face. Finish with a lightweight serum.
