Get to know our Super Flat topper partings

Her Hair My Head sells our own range of Super Flat toppers that are made from 100% high-grade Brazillian REMY human hair.

Base construction

Our Super Flat topper base has a hand-tied parting area (either Standard Silk, Seamless Silk or Closed Lace) and has closed-wefted back and sides. Close-wefted means that wefts of hair have been sewn onto the base of the topper. These wefts help the hair to sit flat and look natural. 

Our toppers usually have a comb or combs at the hairline (one long one on a Standard Silk parting and two small ones on Seamless Silk and Closed Lace partings) – these can be removed on request or replaced with clips. The topper is secured to your own hair using 6 pressure-sensitive clips that are sewn on around the edge of the topper base.

Base sizes

Super Flat toppers come on a round 7x7", 8x8" or 9x9" base as standard. We chose these sizes, as they hug your head rather than just perching on top, which gives a flatter and more natural appearance.

Parting types

We offer three different parting types: Standard Silk parting, Seamless Silk parting and Closed Lace parting. 

Standard Silk parting

The Standard Silk parting area is 4x4" and is a multidirectional parting, which means you can change the parting anywhere within this area. Each hair is sewn by hand into a layer of silk, which gives an extremely natural look and appears as if the hair is growing out of a scalp. Silk top toppers come with a comb that sits just behind the hairline (this can be removed or replaced with a clip). Has no return hairs.

TOP TIP – silk partings look very natural, but the hair at the hairline does want to naturally fall forward. The hair can be styled so that it sits back off your face (and not in your eyes!), however the front section of the topper at the hairline is closed, meaning you cannot style the hair right back off your face like you would with a closed lace front. Silk toppers are also ideal if you wear a fringe.

Seamless Silk parting

The Seamless Silk parting area is 3x4.5" and is a multidirectional parting, which means you can change the parting anywhere within this area. The hair is sewn through an ultra-thin layer of silk, so there are no knots on show and it looks like the hair is growing out of a scalp. Has a closed lace front. Has light return hairs.

Closed Lace parting

The lace top parting area is 4x5" and is a multidirectional parting, which means you can change the parting anywhere within this area. Each hair is sewn by hand into a layer of lace, which is light and breathable to wear. Our lace toppers come with a liner, which can be removed on request. The 4” wide lace front goes from temple to temple. Some customers like to use wig tape [buy it here] to stick the lace front section down to allow them to style the hair right back off their face. Lace toppers do not sit as flush to the head as lace wigs. This style of topper is ideal for customers who want a slightly flatter, lighter and more breathable piece. Has light return hairs. 

How is closed lace different to a lace front? A lace front has a piece of lace material at the hairline that is usually uncut, so the customer can cut it back themselves to create a realistic hairline. We have found that with lace front toppers, you often need to glue or tape the lace down to make it sit flat on your head. A closed lace hairline means that the lace is folded over at the hairline and sewn together. We have found that closed lace toppers can be worn without the need for glue or tape. A closed lace topper can be worn behind the hairline to blend with your own hair, or it can be worn in front of your hairline with none of your own hair pulled out. 

Knot information – We do not bleach the knots on our lace toppers as this can shorten the lifespan of the topper, so on darker colours, the knots will be visible as small dots. These can be covered up using scar tape on the underside of the lace or by using a Knot Blurring Pen.
