Are you feeling overwhelmed at the thought of choosing your first wig or topper? Wondering how to navigate the vast array of options as you plan to deal with your hair loss or hair thinning?

At TopElles, we hear our customer’s questions about how to choose their first hairpiece every day. We’ve consolidated the main considerations we recommend, to ensure you make a choice that looks natural, feels comfortable, and fits your lifestyle and budget. Let’s get started!

1. Choose the right base size

Discovering the perfect hair topper is all about capturing a stunning, authentic appearance. Choosing the perfect topper that effortlessly blends with your hair and provides utmost comfort is absolutely crucial. In order to accomplish this, it is crucial to have a clear understanding of your current stage of hair loss. This will enable you to make an informed decision when selecting the appropriate coverage.

Pro tip: If the edges of the base are right on your hairline, go for a slightly larger size to avoid any discomfort from the clips. Your comfort is key!

2. Select the base type

Alright, let’s talk bases! If this is your first time shopping for a hair topper, it’s like discovering a whole new world. At TopElles, we’ve got four fabulous base types in our collection, each with its own perks. Get to know them and see which one feels like your perfect fit.

Finding the correct color can be a challenge especially for a hair topper beginner. Remember toppers need to blend with your biological hair, so we would suggest you to choose the topper color as similar as possible with your bio hair. Follow these steps below and we believe you will find the perfect color.

• Send your hair photos.

Please include more than one photograph of yourself taken under different natural lighting conditions for comparison. Please make sure that the photos can precisely show the color of your bio hair. If you prefer a color other than your own, you can send us a photo that can exactly show your favorite hair color. Please send your photos to service@topelles.com. Our customer specialist will give you a detailed guide in selecting a color you desire.

We will contact you back upon receiving your hair sample.

• "Here are the requirements of preparing your hair sample: "

Length and volume: at least 1.25" long by 1/4" across. (The more the better)

Section: Make sure that your hair swatch is taken from the section of your hair that you wish to match.Please enclose a note with your name, email address, phone number and the products you are customizing on.

4. Select the Length & Texture & Density

Use a measuring tape. Measure from a center part to the end of your hair. We recommend ordering a topper in the same length as your natural hair. The actual topper length may be 1-2 inches longer, giving you the flexibility to have it restyled by your stylist.

Select the texture that best matches your biological hair. If you cannot find the right texture for your bio hair, we recommend you to purchase a straight hair topper and curl the hair with a curling iron.

Hair density refers to how thick the hair is. Deciding which density to choose is a personal preference. Some people prefer a little more volume, while others prefer a more natural look, and some people like to have glamorous and full red-carpet-star volume.

So, ready to explore your options and find the hair topper that’ll make you feel fabulous? Let’s do this together!
