How to Care for Hair Toppers

Washing Your Human Hair Toppers
- Fill up a bowl or sink with lukewarm water and mix a small amount of shampoo into the water to create a lather. Use high-quality products that contain no silicones, parabens, or sulfates. Gently brush your hairpiece to remove knots or tangles, then dip the hair into the water.
Hair Systems: Why You Should Not Use Regular Shampoo or Conditioner
- Work the hair topper into the soapy water dipping it in and out, and gently massage the hair. Drain the water and rinse out the shampoo completely with running water. You can repeat the process if you feel the hair needs it.
- Apply conditioner to your hair topper, avoiding the scalp area as this may cause the knots to loosen. Thoroughly rinse out all the conditioner. If you have a blonde hair topper, use a hydrating conditioning hair mask every month, and rinse well.
Styling Hair Toppers
You can use styling tools such as curling tongs, hairdryers, or hair straighteners. Styling your blonde hair toppers, for example, on a mannequin head with a clamp is recommended for ease of use. Pin down the topper with T pins and insert the pins carefully through the clips. Avoid pinning through the silk area or silicone area.

Salon quality products like hair oils or serums are safe to use. However, avoid using colored products such as root sprays or color sprays. This may lead to lace or silk material discoloration or ruining the hair texture.
