Hey hair sisters, if you deal with hair loss, especially thinning around the temples, this one’s for you. I recently tried a feature on UniWigs hair toppers that completely changed how I wear mine. It’s called the Halo wire, and honestly, it’s a game-changer.
Let me walk you through what it is, how it works, and why I think everyone with thin spots in the front should give it a try.
The Struggle with Front Clips
Before I discovered the Halo wire, I had a hard time with most hair toppers. My temples are super thin—there’s just not enough hair to hold a clip. Every time I wore a hair topper, the front clips would pull or just sit there awkwardly. It felt uncomfortable and insecure.
That’s when I found out about the Halo wire feature. And let me tell you, it makes such a big difference.
What Is the Halo Wire?
The Halo wire is a clear, stretchy wire that goes around your head—kind of like a headband, but hidden under your hair. It connects to both sides of the topper. You can pull the little tabs to tighten or loosen it. Once it fits right, it holds your topper in place—even if you skip the front clips!
For someone like me with very thin hair at the front, this means I don’t have to use the uncomfortable clips near my temples. I just use the wire and the clips in the back. It feels secure, and best of all—it’s comfy.
Using the Breeze Lace Topper with the Halo Wire
The hair topper I used in this video is the Breeze Lace Topper from UniWigs. It comes with the Halo wire already attached.
Here’s how I put it on:
Tie your bio hair back – I leave a little hair in the front to help blend. The rest goes into a loose ponytail with a scrunchie. This helps the wire sit in place.
Place the lace front – Hold the topper by the wire and gently place the lace part on your forehead. It might fold a bit at first, but that’s okay.
Pull the Halo wire down – Let it sit around the back of your head like a band.
Flip the topper over – Let the hair fall over your ponytail.
Use the back clips – I skip the front ones completely. Just clip in the two back clips.
Blend your hair – Let down the ponytail and pull some of your own hair over the wire to hide it. I use a comb to gently fix the front.
It’s honestly really easy once you get the hang of it. And the best part? No painful front clips!
My Favorite Thing About Toppers
One reason I always go back to hair toppers is this: I can tuck my hair behind my ears.
Wigs are great, but for me, they don’t sit well around the ears. My crown is short from ear to ear, so wigs often cover too much and make it hard to wear glasses. With hair toppers for women, I don’t have that problem. I can wear my glasses with no fuss, and my ears feel free.
I also love how light toppers feel—especially in the summer. When it’s hot or I’m working out, I grab a hair topper instead of a wig. It’s cooler and more breathable. The Breeze Lace Topper is especially good for this. It’s soft, airy, and easy to wear with a hat.
If You’ve Struggled with Hair Loss…
I just want to say—you’re not alone. Hair loss is tough. Some days are harder than others. But finding little things, like the right topper or a better way to wear it, can make a big difference.
The Halo wire might seem like a small detail, but it really helped me feel more confident and comfortable again. If front clips are painful or just don’t work for you, I really recommend giving it a try.
Final Thoughts
The UniWigs Halo wire hair toppers—especially the Breeze Lace Topper—are a great option for anyone who needs comfort, easy wear, and a secure fit without pressure on the front of the scalp.
If you’ve been struggling with how your topper fits or you just want something more gentle, the Halo wire might be just what you need. It changed things for me—and it might for you, too.
