Toupee FAQ

• What is a Toupee?

  Answer: A toupee, often referred to as a hair system, is a partial wig or hairpiece designed to cover areas of baldness or enhance hairstyle. Unlike the outdated perception of toupees as mere "fake hair," modern advancements have made them highly realistic and tailored to diverse lifestyles, offering a natural and transformative solution for hair loss.

• How is a Toupee Different from a Full Wig?

  Answer: A toupee specifically targets baldness or thinning hair areas, usually on the top of the head. In contrast, a full wig covers the entire scalp, providing a complete hair replacement solution.

• Are Toupees Made from Real Hair or Synthetic Materials?

  Answer: Toupees can be crafted from real human hair or synthetic fibers. At LaVivid, we primarily offer toupees made from 100% real human hair, catering to those who seek a natural look and feel.

• Will People Be Able to Tell if I'm Wearing a Toupee?

  Answer: Modern toupees are designed for a natural look and seamless blend with existing hair. Proper selection, fitting, and styling make it challenging for others to detect. We recommend visiting a hair system salon for a professional fitting initially. As you become more adept, you can use our pre-cut service and learn to apply and maintain the toupee independently.
