Are Hair Toppers Good For Thin Hair?

From boosting volume to targeting coverage on selected areas of your head, the best hair toppers for thin hair leave you looking and feeling amazing!
Ready to discover the best toppers for thinning hair? Let’s get started.
What to Look For in a Hair Topper For Thinning Hair
When you’re looking for the best hair toppers for thinning hair, there are a few things to consider to choose the right one for you.
Good Coverage
A good first step is to work out exactly what your coverage needs are. Where are you noticing hair loss? Is the thinning noticeable in particular spots or across a wider area of your head? This will help you to decide on the size of the hair topper that will give you the most bang for your buck.
Natural Finish
It’s also worth thinking about which of the best hair toppers for thin hair will complement with your natural locks.
While you can trim and style your topper to blend more seamlessly with the rest of your hair, it’s a good idea to choose a topper that matches your natural hair as closely as possible. This will make the job of blending the topper with your hair a whole lot easier.
High Quality Craftsmanship
The quality of a topper is also worth considering—after all, it needs to be worth your hard-earned money!
A hair topper’s price tag comes down to a few different factors, including the materials used, the level of craftsmanship, the type of attachment system used, and the brand recognition of the company selling the topper. Synthetic hair toppers tend to be on the lower end of the price range, while real human hair toppers have a slightly higher price tag. It’s all about what’s best for you and your budget. 💰

Tips For Finding The Right Topper For Your Thinning Hair Type
Finding the right hair topper for you can feel tricky—but it’s loads easier when you have all the knowledge needed to make the best choice for you and your hair.
Match Your Hair Color and Texture
Most toppers for thinning hair will be designed to blend with your own hair, so choosing one that’s as close as possible to your natural color and texture is a good starting point. There are so many beautiful shades and textures of hair toppers available, so you should have no difficulty finding a great match.
Choose the Right Length
When it comes to length, opting for a topper that’s as close as possible to your natural hair is the way to go. If you can’t find one that’s exactly the right length, choose a topper that’s a little longer and ask your regular hairstylist to trim it back.
Choose the Right Size
The size of the topper itself is also really important. Before ordering your ideal hair topper, make sure to measure the exact size of your scalp and work out where the topper will attach. To avoid accelerating hair loss, you’ll want the topper to attach to stronger hair follicles (which are usually around 1 inch outside of any hair thinning).

FAQs
How do I choose a hair topper for thinning hair?
When choosing a hair topper for thinning hair, make sure it offers the level of coverage that’s right for you, hiding any balding spots or particularly thin areas. To do this, pick one that’s the right size for your scalp and the right length to blend naturally with your hair.
Speaking of which, make sure your hair topper is the same color and texture as your hair too. This will create a natural-looking finish.
How do you attach a hair topper to thin hair?
Hair toppers clip onto your natural hair. If you need one that clips in lower on your head so you have more hair to clip into, we recommend the Athena 14 XL French RHH as this has a large cap size.
How do you hide extremely thin hair?
There are three options when it comes to hiding thin hair: hair extensions, wigs, and hair toppers.
For extremely thin hair, however, you’re best with either a voluminous hair topper—particularly if the thinning is mostly at the top of the scalp—or a full-coverage wig—particularly if you’re struggling with very large bald patches.
