The Beginner’s Guide
We understand that getting a wig or topper can be a daunting task. We have created many resources to help you along your journey. Below is a road map we suggest you follow:
- Decide on whether you would like a wig or a hair topper. This will depend on your hair situation and lifestyle. Many people also wear both.
- Decide on colour and length. A topper should be a similar length and colour as your own hair and a wig can be any colour or length you desire. Have a look through the website at our colours and styles. Remember: any of our colours can come in any length and can be styled in any way. We can curl, straighten, add layers or fringes. So don’t get too stuck on the styles you see.
- For a wig you will need to measure your head. We have a step-by-step guide and video below each listing. For a topper the cap sizes are universal. We offer larger base toppers as we feel they look most natural and sit flatter on the head.
- Book a consultation: We offer video and in-person consultations to help guide you through the process. We can offer advice for good colour matching and cap design.
Why human hair?
When it comes to wigs, human hair takes the crown for many reasons. Human hair wigs and toppers offer the most natural and realistic look and feel. The texture, shine, and movement mimic your own hair, ensuring a seamless blend.
- Human hair provides exceptional versatility. You can style it with heat tools, just like your natural hair. From curls to straight locks or updos, the possibilities are endless.
- Human hair wigs and toppers tend to last longer than synthetic ones, especially with proper care. You can expect a human hair wig to maintain its quality and appearance for a longer period.
- Human hair allows for customization. You can add a darker root to match your own, some low lights for more dimension or a custom cut or fringe (bang). This flexibility enables you to achieve your desired look with precision.
- Human hair wigs offer better comfort and breathability. The natural hair fibres allow air to circulate, reducing discomfort and promoting a more comfortable wearing experience.
Human hair wigs excel in providing a natural look, versatile styling options, durability, customization, and enhanced comfort. For those seeking the utmost quality and realism in their wig experience, human hair is the superior choice.
TOPPER OR WIG?
A hair topper is like a hair extension, but for the top of your hair. It’s designed to clip onto the top section of your own hair, giving it an instant boost of volume, length, and overall fabulousness.
We have designed two different topper cap constructions to suit everyone’s different needs, a silk topper and a lace topper. Both options work well for most people, but some people prefer one over the other.
A topper is designed to blend with your own hair.
A wig is a full cap that covers all your own hair area. They can be worn by anyone whether you have your own hair or not.
At Goldylost Hair we LOVE lace wigs! The lace is an invisible material that melts into your own skin, so the hair looks like it’s going from your own scalp! They are the wig of choice for celebrities – think Beyoncé and the Kardashians!
They are lightweight, breathable and incredibly natural. All Goldylost wigs are “Pull on and Go” and do not require glues or tapes.
GoldyLost Hair is absolutely committed to only selling the most beautiful, top-quality wigs and toppers.
