Wearing a hair topper Comme un diadème: Marlène's testimony

2 Comments / Unclassified / By

Marlène bought her first hair topper undetectable at Comme un diadème and shares her feedback with us.

"It's been two weeks since I met my hair topper. I was blonde, with a short cut. I have become myself again, light brown, with a very beautiful length (model Alice, base 7x7 inches, 16 inches long).

My fears were many, and you know what? None of them held up.

So here’s a little feedback to make your doubts disappear and for you to dare to take the plunge too.

Fear #1: It’s going to be uncomfortable / pull / scratch / move.

In fact, not at all. And yet, back then, headbands or a ponytail too high gave me migraines. Okay, sometimes a little hair gets caught in a clip, but you just have to move it a bit and voila, everything is in order. And no, I don’t have to readjust my topper 15 times a day. I put it on in the morning, and that’s it.

Fear #2: I’m going to be hot under there.

Let’s be clear, yes, it’s warmer with a topper, especially when walking at 30°C. But it’s the hair that makes us hot, especially at the nape of the neck. Problem solved by tying it up with a clip or an elastic. As for the base, it even provides a significant advantage: thanks to this protection, the sun doesn’t beat down on our heads anymore. Those who have experienced a sunburn on the scalp will understand…

Fear #3: People will look at me strangely.

Yes, and so what? We don’t care, do we?

For this one, I went all out: radically changing color but also length overnight. The people I know and appreciate reacted with great kindness and many compliments. Some, not seen for a long time, didn’t even notice. This shows that these little wonders really have a super natural look!

Peur n°4: Quelle couleur choisir?

They all look so beautiful, these toppers, on the Comme un diadème website! Which one to choose? What if I completely mess up the color?

Four different color references of hair toppers offered by Comme un diadème.

No need to worry, actually. At worst, we can get a little blend with our natural hair. The shades don’t have to be perfectly identical for a natural look. Once styled, with a pretty clip or scarf, a little mix can even add an extra touch of charm.

Fear No. 5: Choosing the base of the hair topper.

That’s the only thing I would change if I could go back. Because of points 1 and 2, I absolutely wanted to take the smallest base (18×18). If I had to do it again, I would opt for the largest. Because I now know that it’s really comfortable, and that way, I could better hide my still short natural hair. So, really don’t be afraid of wide bases.

Expandable base of a hair topper.

There you go, I hope this feeling will convince you to leave your anxieties in the closet and dare to take the plunge. Personally, I really don’t regret it!

Marlène.

    Hello, I just watched part of your videos and my hope is renewed. Unfortunately, I have short hair and I haven't seen any short hair toppers. Should I get a slightly longer one and cut it? That would be a shame, so what should I do?
    Bien cordialement

      Bonjour,
      How short is your hair? If it's a bob, then yes, it will need to be cut slightly.
      However, this type of hair topper is not necessarily suitable for very short cuts like Sophie Davant, Evelyne Dhéliat.

We use Brazilian natural 'Remy' hair. The term 'Remy' means that the hair and the cuticles of the strand are aligned in the same direction on the hair topper. Unlike non-'Remy' hair, which is assembled in bulk. They tend to tangle and damage more easily.

You should choose the base size of the hair topper based on the extent of your alopecia and the hair density you wish to achieve. Indeed, it is preferable that the clips are not attached in the alopecia area where the scalp can be quite sensitive. Additionally, extensive alopecia will require a significant hair density to compensate for the low initial density.

We recommend base sizes of 8 x 8" or 8 x 8" for extensive alopecia. These bases will provide real coverage, density, and comfort of use. Larger base sizes are available for very significant alopecia.

Smaller bases (6 x 6") will provide slightly less density to the hair. However, they will allow for easier high ponytails.

To determine your wig size, please refer to the table below.

We offer hair toppers with a density between 120 and 130%. This density is considered standard among international brands.

The hair is straight. Unless it is indicated in the title of the product sheet and in the description that the model is naturally wavy or curly.

The lifespan of a hair topper will partly depend on how well it is cared for. The typical lifespan is between one and two years. To extend the lifespan of your hair topper, it should not be washed too frequently.

The hair topper should be brushed carefully after being worn. It is practical to place it on a wig stand. This way, the hair does not get a bad crease before the next use.

Hair should not be washed too frequently. Maintenance every 4 weeks or more is a good rhythm. You should close the clips before washing the hair and detangle the hair before and after washing. You can use a gentle shampoo for colored hair followed by a conditioner. The “Orchid oil” shampoo and “Brazilian keratin” conditioner have proven effective!

Every 4 shampoos, you can apply Silicon Mix, available on Amazon. Your hair will regain its original shine.

In case of dry ends, we recommend adding a bit of argan oil to hydrate the hair fiber.

Natural hair can be heated, straightened, and curled without any problem. However, as with your own hair, it should not be overdone to avoid damaging the hair fiber.

The cork wig stand and its display are essential for drying and styling the hair of the hair toppers easily. https://amzn.to/2tg50cJ The T-pins will allow you to secure the hair topper to the cork wig head before styling or curling the hair. https://amzn.to/2uW5W6q
The hair of the hair toppers has generally undergone complex bleaching and coloring processes before reaching its final color. These hairs have therefore been sensitized. They may react unexpectedly to a coloring or bleaching process. It is generally possible to darken a hair topper. However, it is not recommended to bleach it as this could alter the hair. Thus, in case of doubt between two shades for the hair color to choose, it is better to select the lighter hair shade. In any case, it is important to have the hair topper colored or bleached by a professional colorist who is accustomed to working with this type of hair. The hair toppers Comme un diadème are sold uncut. At first try, the hair topper may seem ill-suited to your face and/or hairstyle. However, a raw piece requires you to make it your own so that it completely suits you. We therefore recommend that if the color, length, and base size suit you, to have the hair topper cut by a hairstylist so that it can blend naturally with your own hair.
