Hair Topper Care Guide
Your topper is crafted from premium human hair and, with proper care, can remain beautiful for around 12 months or longer with continuous wear.
Following these care instructions will help maintain its softness, shine, and natural movement.
Before Washing
- Gently brush your topper using a wide-tooth comb or a brush designed for human hair extensions and toppers.
- Always start brushing from the ends and gradually work your way upward to avoid unnecessary tension.
- Never brush wet hair, as it is more delicate and prone to stretching.
How Often Should I Wash My Topper?
Unlike natural hair, your topper does not receive oils from the scalp, so it does not need frequent washing.
We recommend washing your topper every 10–20 wears, or whenever product buildup becomes noticeable.
Washing Instructions
- Fill a sink or basin with lukewarm water.
- Apply a sulphate-free shampoo and gently smooth it through the hair from roots to ends.
- Do not rub, twist, or scrub the hair.
- Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.
- Apply a moisturising conditioner to the mid-lengths and ends, avoiding the base and knots.
- Leave the conditioner on for 3–5 minutes before rinsing thoroughly.

Drying
- Gently squeeze out excess water using your hands.
- Wrap the topper in a soft towel and gently pat dry. Never rub the hair.
- Place the topper on a wig stand or mannequin head and allow it to air dry whenever possible.
- If using a hair dryer, select a low to medium heat setting and always use a heat protectant.
Styling
Your topper is made from 100% human hair, meaning it can be curled, straightened, and styled just like your own hair.
To keep your topper looking its best:
- Always apply a heat protectant before using hot tools.
- Keep styling temperatures below 180°C (356°F) whenever possible.
- Avoid excessive heat styling every day.
- Finish with a lightweight serum or hair oil on the ends to maintain softness and reduce dryness.
Sleeping
We recommend removing your topper before sleeping. Sleeping in your topper may cause unnecessary tangling, friction, and reduce its lifespan.
Swimming & Exercise
For the longest lifespan, remove your topper before swimming, visiting saunas, or exposing it to saltwater or chlorinated pools.
If you exercise while wearing your topper, allow it to dry completely afterward before storing it.
Storage
When not in use:
- Store your topper on a wig stand or mannequin head whenever possible.
- If travelling, keep it in a silk or satin storage bag to minimise friction.
- Store away from direct sunlight, excessive heat, and humidity.
Colouring
Our toppers are made from real human hair and may be professionally toned or darkened if desired.
We do not recommend bleaching or lightening the hair, as this may affect its quality and longevity.
