Choosing the Right Hair Length for a Topper

Choosing the right length can be tricky sometimes. Most of the Jon Renau Toppers are available in 8″, 12″ or 18″. Some are available in all 3 lengths.  This great video is supplied by Jon Renau showing how simple it is to match your length.

Hairdressers can always customise it a little to suit your style.  Always check with your hairdresser if they have experience with alternative hair.

 

There is a Topper for Everyone.

 

Toppers can instantly and effortlessly transform your look by adding volume and body to fine, thin hair. There is a large range of toppers in human hair and synthetic hair as well as many sizes to suit many wearers. It’s a great alternative to wearing a full wig.

Many Reasons to wear a Topper.

Wearers use toppers for many reasons but here are a few reasons:

  • Mild Hair loss to advanced hair loss.
  • Toppers are cooler than wearing wigs.
  • Some clients feel that toppers don’t have the stigma of wearing a wig.
  • Toppers integrate seamlessly with your own hair.
  • Toppers can be worn to add volume to fine hair and not necessarily hair loss.
  • You can still put your hair up in a pony tail or updo quite easily.

Some of the things that you need to consider when choosing a Topper

  • Length needed to suit your hair. The Topper is an integration piece so it needs to be similar to your own length.  They are designed to add volume to your own hair and not to add length to your style.
  • The base needs to cover any hair loss.  The bigger the base there is more hair hence more hair density.
  • When you have fine hair/hair loss too much hair can feel like its not realistic.  It takes time to get used to having more hair.  Some wearers love more hair than others.  Everyone is unique and there is a solution for everyone.

The Topper Chart below gives you full list of all the  toppers in Jon Renau’s range.  It shows you the style, size and shape of each base, the coverage, placement of the topper and the length of hair.

How to Measure your Head Size?

How to Measure your Head Size?

Choosing a wig can be difficult and finding the right size is very important.

The most common wig size is “Average” which will fit around 97% of people as head size doesn’t vary a great deal regardless of height, weight or body shape. An Average size wig will fit a head circumference of between 21.25 inches (52cm) to 22 inches (54cm) approximately.

For those who fall into the Petite or Large range there is options however the range and colour options are sometimes a little limited in comparison to the Average range of wigs.

Below is a measuring Guide provided by Jon Renau and provides clear information to help you find your correct size.

If you have any questions regarding size please feel free to email us or call us or call us on 1300 79 75 79 to discuss your options.

Wearing a wig that is too big or small can cause the following issues:

  1. If a wig is too small, the wearer will feel uncomfortable as the wig feels too tight and the wig may ride up at the back of the head.
  2. If a wig is too big the wig will slip and doesn’t  give the wearer the most realistic look.
  3. A wig that doesn’t fit properly will not wear properly and it may cause the wig to not last as long as it should.  This makes wearing wigs quite expensive.
  4. A wig that doesn’t fit properly will not look as good as a wig that is fitted properly.

Easipieces Collection by Jon Renau

 

Easipieces By Jon Renau.

We are so excited!! Jon Renau will be launching their collection of Easipieces at the beginning of February 2020.

This collection is designed with an undetectable low profile, clip-in easiPieces to add subtle, balancing volume that complements a lightweight topper for a full, natural look.  These pieces are made of Remy Human Hair on Slim slender polyurethane bases designs.  There are 3 different lengths, 3 different widths in a range of over 30 colours. The hair lengths include 8″, 12″ and 16″ inches. The widths are 4″, 6″ and 9″.

You can wear these hairpieces with a topper to achieve a more fuller look or on their own with your own biological hair.

 

 

How to Choose:

  1. Choose the colour that suits your own biological hair.  If you are wearing a topper then you need to consider your topper colour as well. They don’t necessarily need to match but they need to compliment each other.
  2. Decide the length to compliment your hair.  These pieces are to add volume but not length so it needs to be similar to your hair length.
  3. Based on where you want to wear the piece, you can decide how wide you need.  4″ pieces are ideal for the sides and 6″ or 9″ for the back of your hair.

How to put on a topper?

Putting on a topper/hairpiece can be tricky when you first begin.  These are a few tips that can help you:

  1. Spray a little hair spray or dry shampoo to enable you to tease the hair a little.  This will help to give the hair some friction for the clips to hold on to firmly.
  2. Always clip on to your own hair where this is a decent amount of hair so you don’t aggravate the hair loss you already have. Clipping onto a few strands of hair can cause further hair loss.
  3. Try to pick a colour that will highlight or enhance your hair colour so it will integrate seamlessly.

Below is a video showing how to clip in a topper.  It does take some practice but its not difficult.

Please feel free to call us or email us at sales@wigsonline.com.au   for any further assistance you need.

 

What is a Topper?

A topper is a hair piece that integrates with your own hair and is excellent in disguising hair loss.  Hair loss can occur very slowly or can be very rapid at any age for a variety of reasons.  Toppers can be called wiglets or hair pieces.  Most toppers are attached via clips.  There are many sizes in toppers to suit all degrees of hair loss.  They are designed to seamlessly blend with your own hair.  Some clients like to wear toppers to simply add volume to their own hair even if they haven’t any  hair loss at all.

Below is a chart that will help with determining what topper would be suitable for you.  No one topper will suit everyone.

There are human hair as well as synthetic hair toppers to suit all budgets.  Obviously the human hair toppers are more expensive but they will last a lot longer.

We carry a large range of Jon Renau Toppers.  They are the leading Hair company in the global market for toppers.  When deciding which topper will suit you, you should take into account some of the following:

  1.  Determine what hair loss stage you are at Beginning, Progressive or Advanced stages.
  2. Measure the area of your scalp that you want to cover. The Topper needs to be a little bigger than this area so the hair piece can clip onto your own hair.  The clips should clip on to a reasonable amount of hair to not aggravate any hair loss you already are experiencing.
  3. Choose what base you would like: Monofilament Tops allow the wearer more styling options as the hair will go in any direction and the part area is more realistic. A classic base is a base where you can pull through some of your hair to integrate.
  4. Select hair length, hair colour and fibre. The hair colour and length is all dependant on the look you are trying to create.
  5. Some helpful tips to wearing a topper:  Lightly tease or spray hair with hair spray ( or dry shampoo) to give your hair some texture.  The clips will hold on much better.

Here is a chart that can be very helpful.  It shows what topers are good for each stage of hair loss and where to position the topper.

How to Apply & Remove Adhesives on wigs – Wigs 101

Most Lace front wigs from Jon Renau don’t need adhesive unless you would prefer to use it. The most important thing to note is to take care to never pull on the lace as you might stretch it. If its stretched it may not sit on your forehead flat again. Similarly, always take your wig off holding onto the ear tabs or nape so as not to damage the lace front.
If you want more security or you feel that the wig is slipping then you can use adhesive. This video from Jon Renau gives you a full explanation of how to apply and remove adhesive.
