Beginner’s Guide to Human Hair Wigs and Toppers

Feel like yourself again—with a little Goldy magic.
Thinking about getting a wig or a hair topper? We understand it can feel overwhelming. Whether you’re managing hair thinning, hair loss, or simply looking to switch up your look, you deserve guidance that feels as personal as the piece you’re looking for.
This guide was created for you. Clear, human, and genuinely helpful—it’s everything you need to feel confident from the start.
Should You Choose a Wig or a Hair Topper
If you’re dealing with thinning at the crown or around your part, a hair topper might be just what you need. These lightweight, clip-in pieces blend seamlessly with your existing hair, adding instant volume and confidence. At Goldylost, we offer both lace and silk top toppers in a wide range of natural shades—from blonde to brunette, red, grey, and black. They’re popular among women looking for an everyday solution to hair loss that feels natural and secure.
But if you’re looking for full coverage, a bold new look, or more flexibility in styling, a human hair wig is the way to go. Our wigs are designed to look and feel like real hair because they are real hair. All our wigs are glueless lace front wigs and they can be of the following types: classic lace wigs, ponytail wigs and hand-tied caps, we focus on breathability, comfort, impeccable hairlines, high-quality hair and realism. Lace front designs are a favourite because the hairline disappears into your skin, giving you the most undetectable finish possible.
Not sure which one suits you best? Many of our clients wear both, depending on the occasion or how they want to feel that day.
Finding Your Colour, Length & Style
With toppers, your piece should closely match your bio hair in both color and length. But with wigs? That’s your opportunity to play. Want something edgy? Soft? Classic? Or something that looks like your natural hair? Everything is possible. From short bobs to long, wavy layers, we have every base covered—and you can style it your way.
You can choose:
Lengths from 8 to 24 inches
Colours including blonde, grey, brunette, black, red, balayage, ombre, rooted, and highlights
Textures like straight, beachy waves, or soft curls
Every piece is made from 100% human hair, which means you can straighten, curl, or add a fringe whenever you like. We also offer customisation, so don’t worry if you don’t see exactly what you want—we can tweak it just for you.
How to Get the Right Fit
Getting the right fit is one of the most important steps in making your wig or topper look seamless and feel completely natural. A well-fitting piece doesn’t just improve appearance—it affects comfort, security, and your overall confidence.
WIG FITTING
For wigs, we make it easy to get the measurements you need. Every product page includes a step-by-step video showing you how to measure your head at home, using just a soft tape measure. You’ll measure around your head’s circumference, from front to nape, and across the crown. These numbers help us determine the best cap size for you, whether that’s petite, average, or large.
TOPPER FITTING
When it comes to toppers, the sizing is a bit more flexible. That’s because toppers are designed to clip into your bio hair, blending in naturally and comfortably. But just because it’s easier doesn’t mean it’s one-size-fits-all. We offer several types of hair toppers—lace, silk, mini, and grand—each designed with a unique purpose in mind. Some provide maximum coverage, while others are made for subtle volume or lightweight comfort. Lace toppers are perfect for receding hairlines, while silk toppers add that luxurious volume in the back. The right one for you will depend on your hair pattern, thinning level, and personal preferences. Don’t worry—we’ll guide you through the process to find the perfect fit.
And remember, it’s not just about fit. It’s about feel. A good fit gives you peace of mind. You’ll move freely, knowing your hair is staying exactly where it should. Our pieces are breathable, secure, and built to help you live your life, not tiptoe around it.
Why Human Hair Is Always Worth It
We believe every woman deserves hair that looks and feels like her own. That’s why we only work with 100% human hair, ethically sourced from Southern Brazil—home to iconic models like Gisele Bündchen and Adriana Lima.
Human hair isn’t just a luxury—it’s a practical choice too. It gives you styling freedom (yes to curling wands and straighteners), holds up longer than synthetic hair, and feels breathable on your scalp. It moves naturally, shines subtly, and lets you make it your own with colour, cuts, and layers.
Here are a few more reasons we love human hair wigs and toppers:
- 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 and toppers 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 or topper experience, human hair is the superior choice.
