Toppik

Hair looks thinner because firstly the density of the hair reduces when hair falls out, and this leads to the scalp being more visible. We at HairGenie use different products to hide hairloss by coloring the scalp the same color as your hair.

The texture and appearance of the Toppik Hair Building Fibers work well with ethnic hair

 

Toppik Hair Building Fibers are made of Keratin protein – the same thing that makes up human hair. The Keratin protein comes from a natural wool source, which is the closest match to human hair.

Toppik Hair Building Fibers stay firmly in place even in wind, rain and perspiration. For even longer-lasting results and added shine, use Toppik FiberHold Spray

Toppik Hair Building Fibers do not encourage or discourage hair growth. The natural Keratin Fibers will not clog pores or affect a scalp condition.

Toppik Hair Building Fibers stay until you wash your hair. They may shift but can be easily touched up. Many individuals who go to the salon weekly for a shampoo/set or a blow out will leave the Fibers in until their next appointment.

Toppik Hair Building Fibers can be used to effectively and easily cover both gray roots and color-treated root re-growth!

It is recommended that Toppik Hair Building Fibers be applied after the use of any styling tools such as hairdryers, flat irons or curling irons. Styling products (other than hairspray) should be applied to the hair prior to applying Toppik Hair Building Fibers. Applying gels, mousses, pastes, serums, and the like after applying Fibers may cause shifting the Fibers and could expose the areas that were meant to be covered. Let styling products dry before applying Fibers.

The irregular teeth and unique design of the Hairline Optimizer are ideal for naturally framing the areas around the face, including  the forehead and temple areas. This tool also keeps Fibers from getting onto the forehead when applying Toppik to the front hairline.

Toppik FiberHold Spray is specifically formulated to lock in the Fibers for those looking for added hold as well as shine.

Remove the Spray Applicator from the Toppik Hair Building Fibers bottle and rinse inside and out with flowing hot water. Let dry, and place it back on the bottle.

It depends on how frequently you use the product, the amount of the product you use each time, and the size of product you purchase. 

Yes, you can mix different shades of Hair Building Fibers. In fact, it is often encouraged to mix different shades in order to find the closest match to your own color, especially when working with blonde or gray hair. The product can either be mixed directly in the hair (use the lighter color first, and then layer the darker color over it).
