Difference Between Human And Synthetic Hair Toppers
Hair toppers are the easiest and most efficient ways to highlight your hair and change your looks for the better. You can pull off any style if you choose the perfect hair topper that fits your original hair texture and color.
If you are planning to try hairpieces for women or have already tried them, you will know that there are two basic types of hair toppers. This applies to other artificial hair alternatives like wigs as well. In addition, hair toppers come in two hair types – human hair and synthetic hair.
Knowing the differences and choosing which type best fits your needs and requirements is vital. If you want to know more about these two types, do not look any further. This article will walk you through the basics of human and synthetic hair toppers.
How To Choose Your First Hair Topper
Human Hair Topper
True to its name, this type of topper is made with natural human hair. Since they are made with original human hair, they are the closest to replicating the natural feel and texture. So it feels like you are wearing natural hair. Compared to synthetic hair toppers, human hair toppers are more natural-looking and can be styled and used with heat products. However, they are pretty expensive.
When you plan to buy a human hair topper, you need to understand that there are four different varieties based on the hair type. It is broadly categorized into Indonesian, European, Chinese, and Indian. One of the most common hair toppers is the European hair, followed by the Indian type.
While Indonesian is affordable and easy to style, they do not look as natural as the others. On the other hand, Chinese is tough to style but can make your hair look very shiny and add a lot of volume. European hair is quite expensive than others, but for the money’s worth, it adds a lot of texture and density to natural hair and is very easy to style. Indian hair topper looks pretty and provides the most volume, and is more affordable than others.
Synthetic Hair Topper
A synthetic hair topper is an artificial hair topper made of manufactured fibers like acrylic and nylon and is chemically processed to attain a natural look and texture. It gives the hair a similar density and texture like the human hair topper. There is limited styling and you can’t use heat styling products with it compared to human hair.
However, they last longer than human hair and are much more affordable. You must be careful while styling it with heat tools as it can easily damage the synthetic topper. Though the styling is easy, you cannot play around with different styles in the synthetic hair topper because it is sensitive to heat and can melt.
