- Ever wonder what the heck a hair topper or hair enhancement is? And what's the difference between that and a wig??!?! YA, ME TOO GIRL, ME TOO. This is part two of my video series with Truly You Hair & Scalp Clinic. In this video we'll cover everything you need to know about toppers. We talk A LOT about different types of toppers, how to choose what's best for you, the best way to put them on, the different constructions and sizes... honestly, we cover everything! So, check out this long as hell video - I promise, it's totally worth your time!
IMPORTANT TAKEAWAYS:
- Look at Thinning Areas
- Consider your Preferred Style
- Mono vs. French Drawn: Mono is one layer, so your hair will show through (meaning you will not have a natural parting).
- Density: 75%, 100% etc.
- Always place topper about 1-2 CM from hairline
- Keep in mind your preferred Density & Clip Placement
- Quality is determined by whether it's Hand Tied & Remy Hair
- Choose French Drawn for a more natural look
- Machine Made is the cheapest option, where as Hand Tied, French Drawn will add to the cost, but provide more natural/quality pieces

We love that you asked about customizing the hair part! We alway encourage our customers to play around with their pieces to find what makes them feel most like themselves!
Of all the youtube videos regardless of topic, this was the MOST informative. THANK YOU!!!!
Thank You!!!! This is such a hard thing to deal with as a woman!! I'm finally to the point where I am accepting I can seek these same solutions instead of being depressed and stressed over trying to deny the extent of my hair loss!! Thank You!!!!
You're welcome! It's horrible, but once your begin the process of acceptance, it's so freeing.
You’re not alone. I’m in the same place. It’s such a confusing experience and products can add up and be expensive. It’s so embarrassing and hurtful when people can be insensitive. I’m so grateful for all of these videos and resources that have really exploded just within the past few years. It sucks but we couldn’t deal with this crap at a better time.
Hi Kimberly, how are you getting along a year later?
I like the toppers. I never knew I could do that before. I added pony tails and wiglets and a full wig. However that was years ago. I like these Toppers. I want to look into one but I have silver hair. I haven’t seen any toppers in grey yet. This is very interesting to me now maybe one day I will find one in silver and learn how to use it well after these tutorials.i liked this a lot’ I found it very interesting. Great instructor.
I need the one at 8.36, for my terrible thining!♥️🙏 Thank you. So informative.
Very informative video and covers all the questions needed for buying a topper 👍💕
Thank you so much I was about to get one but not knowing which one will really suit me. Thanks
Awesome video! Very informative with lots of good information. I really enjoyed watching, you're so beautiful and gracious.
This is an AMAZING video!! I cant understand why it hasnt gotten like, a million views!! THANK YOU!!!
Thank you!! Maybe one day it will :)
That was awesome!!! Thank you!!!🧡🧡🧡
💜 Thank you!! Such a wonderful informative video!! You are beautiful!
Happy to help, and thank you!!
really good...the beautiful lady knows her stuff and that is so satisfying
Hi Lylah, this is the BEST video I’ve seen on toppers! Thank you so much for sharing. My hair loss is actually more advanced than yours, but I disguise with thickening dark spray. I really need a topper, but had no idea about density , fit etc. This lady is so knowledgeable. It’s v difficult to know what to order for toppers , wigs etc.
Also your attitude towards hair loss is so refreshing ! You are positive and look beautiful with or without toppers.
Thanks so much - I’m a new subscriber. Please post how to put on etc 🙏🏻👌👍🏻😍😍😍
Thank you for posting this! I was just thinking about going this week and buying myself a topper. I’m a tad nervous.... I hope a find something I like.
Good luck, hope you do find something, there are so many premade options and even custom options!!
Dud you find a nice topper?
Thank you for this informative video. Since you did this video a while back, I wondered if you have purchased toppers at other places in the Toronto or SW Ontario area. Would you still recommend Truly You?
Hey, I know this video is about hair and stuff but i just HAVE to comment on your skin! It is so flawless! 😇
Thanks you!! Quite honestly I'm just really good at doing my makeup lol, my skin has been horrible since January but I will happily accent this compliment!! :)
Thank YOU! for making this it was very helpful what is the blonde topper called and where could I get one from please?
Thank you very informative.
Thanks for this ! So great that you were able to gather all this info for us . Thanks ! Wondering what is the price ranges?
They can range from a few hundred to over 2k, really depends on if you go with an existing system or go the custom route - once you go custom, everything can add up (quality of hair, french drawn, etc).
How cool!
Im bery happy to find this great info.
Can you sare the info in order to buy my topper
With this this lady Will wonderful be
I love your videos really helph
Thanks
This is a extremely helpful video. Very informative and thorough
LOVE it
Looks s o good
This was so helpful!! Thank you!
Happy to help :)
So you didn’t pick any of them? Which brand are you wearing?
3rd fav!!!
Hi Lylah, I love the 5th one for myself. What is it called and where do I find that one? Is the density low? How low? I love the color too. Please if you can direct me to find the 5th one. It's the universal one. (It's around 9:52) Thanks!
I HOPE you see this soon if at all....so I had fusion human hair extensions and the first couple times I really didn't know how to take them out correctly so I ended up ripping a lot of hair out. MY PROBLEM is that I have hardly no hair or about a half inch left from temple all the way around to the other temple. But I have plenty of hair on the top of my head as well as the crown also enough hair all around my neckline and half way up the back of my head. So to understand better picture a full head of hair EXCEPT from temple to temple all the way around is about a half inch of hair. The rest a few inches. I can put the hair on top in a pony tail and the sides looked shaved. Kinda neat in some ways but how can I wear a head topper so that it would look natural? I can't stand the feeling of a full wig. I don't like that. Anyone have any suggestions? I want my hair looking back to what it was and the length was jusy below the top of my shoulders like a long bob. I don't know what to do?
This is so frustrating, my 17 yr old started losing hair about 4 yrs ago she'd lose a spot and it would grow back then another spot would go and now she does have new hair growth but its blond until it is over an inch long. Shes got a spot the width of my hand at the crown and its starting at the sides too. It makes me cry thinking about it. Her hair is dark dark brown and used to be so thick.
I know she needs something substantial but theres no one anywhere close to go see and the cost of these nice toppers is way more than I can afford.
Shes such an awesome kid she deserves a break.😕
Is there a link for the lady selling these toppers ?
Yes, please!
That is very nice. Where do buy it? Can you
You are blessed to have so much bio hair ...
Hi what was the blond topper colour and who makes it ?
What do you think abaut 6x9 topper hair Line but has only 2 clips Will be goods?
Hi, where can I find a topper stylist just like her? Or can you give me a refer for her? I bought two toppers but isn’t know how to style it.
Hey Lylah :)
I just sumbled across your video and first of all, thank you for sharing your experience ...you are amazing and inspiring:)
Hey Elsa! Thank you for the love girl :)
So, I rarely wear my toppers, only for special occasions where I need the added volume, and yes, the clips do hurt my scalp and can cause traction alopecia (hair loss from too much tugging), if worn frequently. Many women I know claim that it doesn't hurt their scalp or cause added thinning, but there are a few who find that it does. It's totally a personal thing, depends on your scalp health, and the kind of hair loss you have. You won't know if it's right for you unless you try it. I recommend going to a salon that sells toppers, try them on and see if it's comfortable, likely if you feel nothing at all, your scalp is healthy and it wouldnt cause thinning as easily. Hope this helps!
I have an awkward question for Amalia. I LOVE her hair and I wish mine was like hers. Is that her bio hair or does she also use a topper?
Hi .. i like ur video from where we can buy these topper could u plz give link.
Very helpful. How do I go about finding a lady like her near me to help me?
so where can i get that 1st one you are showing
Just for future reference, can the camera angle change or show the front angle. I couldn't see the parts. Or before and afters
This video talks about hair density in percentages but toppers (other than Uniwigs) are described in terms of ounces. The consultant is very knowledgable. Would you post a link to her?
Can you do a video on your opinions on Castro oil and other oils for hair growth?
Yes, I can, thank you for the request! I do have a video on my current hair oil treatment which is a mix of Coconut, Olive, and Castor Oil. You should definitely check it out, I mention in that video that oils do NOTHING for growth, rather, they keep the hair we have healthy.
This video was very informative, I have very thin hair in the front hairline, my part is also getting wider but I have a lot of hair in the back and sides, can you tell me what you would recommend for me. I think they the 90 density silk top might be right for me. What do you think?
I like the lighter density ones for sure! That's kind of like me, I still have a decent amount but my part is SO wide, honestly fibers and changing up my part is what I do now, but if fibers cant hide it you may have to go the topper route
What topper is the 1st one?
Where can we see the brand of each topper..? Can you write it please?
How can ı get the fıst one plz help me
How much were they? Where is this clinic?
I like the first 1 how can I purchase .
How can I get the first 1 please help me . .
Hi Lylah, if you are looking for a really good quality topper I would highly recommend highline wigs. I've recently bought a topper from there and the service and quality is really good. Also, the piece that I bought looks really natural.
I've heard of them and actually started looking at a few pieces a couple weeks ago :) they're on my list to try!! Good to know you like their stuff!
Every item except one is out of stock on Highline. Really!?
I wish I could find a place like this near me. Maybe I'm not searching properly? I've only come across wig shops. HELP!!!
Hi Layla Kay, Did you find an online company which sells toppers with the 75% density? What were the mesaures of the second topper? Grts
Still working to find a topper in such a light density, will keep you guys posted via my channel!
Where can I purchase these toppers?
It would have been nice to know the name or style of each topper. For example, I'd be interested in knowing which ones would allow one to create a high ponytail...such as the first one that was blonde. More details would have been nice. Yours in Gratitude
Where can we bye this topper???
This is all very informational and I appreciate the detail included in this video. I am looking for a hair solution, however, I am also concerned about the source of the hair. I have not been able to find a fairly traded, ethical source for toppers specifically. If the OP or someone reading this has further information about ethically-sourced hair made into toppers, I would really appreciate a response. Thanks so much in advance. :-)
If women are selling their hair then none of it is ethically sourced! nobody is going to tell you the truth about it lol! if you are that worried get a synthetic one!
What is you have naturally curly hair
Are theses natural hair
And how can I order
Dónde puedo conseguir los esos topper
Light 1 I love the
That was very informative. I would like to know what the percent density means. How can you have 135%?
Thank you! So denisity means how much hair is in the piece, 135 seems to be a consistent one, but some can be less then 100, and up to 200, its faux hair lingo.
I have just discovered hair toppers yesterday. For me, I need bangs plus coverage in my crown or bald spot area. I’ve looked around and can’t seem to find very long toppers with bangs and the length I want(my hair is about 21 inches from middle part). I think the gal who is trying on the toppers, could use bangs too. And my budget is SUPER tight under $1k a month.
the very best thing to do is buy a long full coverage topper and take it to your hair stylist to cut bangs into it and style it for you.
You can buy a wig, remove the base of the cap....even used wigs work and sew on clips. I make them for clients all the time. You will want open wefted type of wig.
What do you recommend for women with male pattern hair loss, I.e. receding frontal hair line and thinning at the sides?
Where can you buy these? Also what is the 2nd and 3rd favorite called.
These are all Jon Renau, you'd have to purchase through a local supplier. No idea what the names are, but I'm sure you can find those pieces on their website.
Check out cysterwigs . Com. And Heather the owner has a CZcams channel where she does all kinds of fun wig reviews. She is a small business owner. I buy all my wigs and toppers thru her website. It's a great community.
hi there hope you’re still reading comments at 8 months after this video was posted my question is where is the salon of this wonder lady that is showing you these beautiful hair pieces if we would like to make appointment with her thank you (your new follower 😊)
Hi There, more info about the clinic is in the description box! :) They're located in Mississauga, ON, Canada.
Would you recommend human hair, or synthetic? I like most people am on a budget....... do you have any recommondations on name brands, websites, etc? ty
Definitely human hair if you want to wear it daily and in front of family/friends. You can find remy human hair toppers online under $400, I have a video for UniWigs which is definitely quite reasonable. You can also check out HighLine wigs, there are a lot of companies, it's just a matter of doing a bit of research and finding one that is in your style/price range.
Hi Lylah, can you please let me know where I can obtain the very first topper you tried on in this video? The lady called it a hair enhancement.
I believe it is Jon Renau’s easipart and the second one was easipart Xl.
All the pieces here are Jon Renau
Can you tell me where this women is located? I would love to go see her someday.
You look like a secret agent getting fitted for a new undercover identity : )
how to have this
I have one; I wanted to put it everyday but then I noticed that the clips hurt my scalp and could cause traction alopecia (hair loss from too much tugging) so I stopped using it, and the fact that I had to put it eveyday kind of depressed me; so after paying 500 euros, cause I live in France; I just keep it in its box; may be if I continue losing my hair....later,, Now I just put on make up on my scalp...but I still show MY hair
I find them painful after a few hours, and personally like wigs better in terms of comfort. Though, toppers are a great solution for women without sensitive scalps so I do try to do some videos on them here and there cause they can be a life saver! But yes, I too just wear fibers every day.
@@Kaesia I just spent money on a topper and I regret it, someone told me it could be depressing, I didn't listen to her, I should have; now I just put on make up, and it seems ok;, its not as depressing as it was having to put on the topper..so; some women are ok with that but some others aren't
Where can I purchase these hair toppers? Thank you💙
can anyone tell me what was the first tiny topper she put on? looks smaller than a 5x5 for sure but what and where to find it
its a jon renau topper, prob the 'easi-part"
Howmuch wig iwant buy
Laylah, who makes the blonde one and what color is it?
Did you have any luck finding out?
Nope. :(
Do you know where in NYC to get a cobsultation and toppers. Bits n Pieces is the only one I know
I'm from Toronto, so unfortunately I can't help, but a google search, and looking at the reviews is what I swear by!
@@Kaesia oh wow - I'm from toronto, too - is this consultant here on TO? can you say who she is?
I bought a topper which is 4x4 in size n it doesn’t look natural 😬😬😬it’s easily detectable ...I’m thinking of buying seamless three head pieces
I find that that toppers generally don't look that natural, a really good quality one is needed in order to blend nicely. Let me know how it goes!!
Hey! Can you please give me the info about the 3 pieces seamless extensions you’re talking about?!!
😊😊👍
How do you get in contact with the specialist? I would love to go for a consultation. The top of my hair is so thin...well over all thin but the top is balding 😭
Same 😭😭😭😭
did she ever try a lace front topper I don't think I saw any on this video
No, I don't believe so!
How secure are the toppers? I’m so paranoid of them coming out....
Also, I have very thin hair and it’s short (at chin level). Can I still get a topper? My hair won’t grow past the middle of my neck.
Oh then sounds like AGA, if length is decreasing. BUT it doesn't hurt to change up your diet, do scalp massages, and take good care of your scalp! So the clips are really strong and dont need much hair to clip to, its really unlikely it'll just come off even with the strongest wind, someone would literally have to rip it off and even then it wouldn't come off lol. Yup doesn't matter the length of your hair, toppers come in different densities, since you wont have any hair past the shoulders you'd want a fuller density.
Lylah Kay thank you for the prompt reply! I just stumbled across your channel 5 min ago. Just got a scalp biopsy done today and I’ve been a crying mess. I pray I don’t have that, but regardless, a topper might be something I may like.
My hair comes to my chin. I’d love shoulder length or longer hair with more thickness (id be ecstatic with medium consistency hair).
If I get a topper and my hair length/thickness changes, my plan would be to tell people I got hair extensions (because no one would bat an eye if you tell people you got extensions vs a topper or wig). However, this would be something I would wear all day, every day except to bed.
Lylah Kay lastly, I’m in Phoenix, AZ. Where can I find out where I can get a consult like you had in this video?
@@iMaGiNaTiOnWpAsSiOn You can totally get away with just saying its extensions! You'll need to look into custom wig salons in your area and see if they offer toppers
Lylah Kay where is this woman located. I wish you would leave the name address and the topper names and who the manufacturer are?
Can you put information about the smallest she showed you... thank you
did you ever get an answer for this?? i am also curious
You're adorable. Too bad the woman putting the toppers on you didn't give item numbers or show different views. Seeing you wearing the topper, at least the back of it would have been helpful. Posted by Char~
Has anybody told you look exactly like karmen Seliman an Egyptian singer 😍
I've gotten Julia Roberts, but Karmen Seliman is an equally wonderful compliment thank you!
@@Kaesia you're welcome ☺️
How do I covet my hairline? That's the problem I have
would Fibers help??
The pieces look nice but she did not put them on right. Hope to see other videos where you put them on and blend so it looks natural.
How do I find a knowledgeable person like this lady in my area?
In the UK?
How come this lady won’t say the name and manufacture for these toppers. Where is this lady located. How can we get a hold of her?
Truly You Hair & Scalp Clinic
Mississauga, Ontario, Canada.
All toppers are Jon Renau, I was not provided with the item number or names for the individual toppers.
Lylah Kay thank you.
have you got it and use?..or are you still undecided?
I'm still SOOOOO UNDECIDED!! My thumbnail photo are the 2 other toppers I own (the custom one that costed me a ton of money, and my new smaller topper from Uniwigs). I haven't yet went ahead with ordering my new custom topper, it's a lot of money so I want to be 100% sure of which cap, style, length, etc.
Beside getting this topper. if you're still losing your hair, make sure to take daily iron pills, even when your test result comes normal. You'll see a huge difference. I did!
Its obvious she has thick hair up front. For thinning hair i prefer the bangs. I bought a topper n it looks horrible
She reminds me of Julia Roberts
Wait... you mean me?! AH THANK YOU!
yes! when you're trying on the Wigs and you're sitting there... your profile and your nice big smile like Julia! :)
That's a very sweet compliment, I don't see it at all (but I've been told this before lol) THANK YOU :)
Yes i agree sooo much, that’s the first thing I thought when I first saw you :D and believe me that’s the BEST compliment coming from me because i’ve always considered Julia Roberts to be one the most beautiful woman on this planet !! And also thank you so much for your videos and your smile, I found you a few days ago because I have the same kind of hair loss you seem to have, and you give me hope, cheers from France ❤️
The fact that every topper is the wrong color makes it very hard to judge.
Hey Virginia, this is more so an educational video rather than styling/colour choices, doing my best to provide info where I can and unfortunately had to work with what they had.
Yes for sure! I understand! Thanks for putting this out there. Just that it is helpful for women with hair loss issues to understand how realistic and natural a topper can look when it's the right color.
You are so beautiful! You would be pretty without any hair. Just so ya know.
Nice can I get one free
Stop making them metal clips!! It breaks the natural hair off!!!!
Andie, I agree, I find toppers pretty painful, and can only wear them for about 3 hours max. But this video was to show what toppers are all about, for those who've never heard about them.
