How to Style a Hair Topper: Simple Ideas for Everyday Looks

Let’s be honest — some days, we just want our hair to look good without doing too much. That’s why I love hair toppers. They add volume, give coverage, and make styling way easier.

Ponytails, braids, clips — you’ve got options. Here are a few simple ways to style your topper for everyday life.

Ponytails, High or Low — Still Cute Either Way

Whether you’re feeling sporty or soft, ponytails are a go-to. And yes — you can absolutely wear a ponytail with a hair topper.

For a high pony, choose a lightweight hair topper with a secure fit. Pull your natural hair and topper hair up together, tie it high, and wrap a small piece of hair around the band to hide it.

For a low pony, go for something laid-back and soft. Tie your hair loosely at the nape of your neck. Let a few strands fall out around your face for that relaxed, romantic look.
Both are quick, comfy, and look amazing in real life — not just in tutorials.

Soft Waves & Curls — Instant Volume, Instant Vibes

One of the best things about human hair toppers? You can curl them just like your own hair.

Loose waves instantly make your look more put-together. Whether you’re using a curling wand or heatless rollers, the key is blending — make sure your own hair and the topper hair flow together.

Want something extra bouncy? Curl the hair away from your face, then finger-comb it out for that soft, glam finish.

Pro tip: Always use a heat protectant, and don’t go overboard on heat. Your hair topper deserves love, too.

Braids are perfect for casual days, workouts, or when you just want your hair out of the way — but cute. And yes, you can absolutely braid with a hair topper!

Here are a few ideas:

Loose side braid: Romantic and easy to do, especially with wavy hair toppers.

Double braids: Super cute and youthful — perfect for weekends or casual days.

Half-up braid crown: Braid two front sections and pin them at the back for a soft, boho feel.

Tip: Use dry shampoo or texturizing spray to add grip and volume before braiding.

4. Hair Claws & Clips – Quick and Cute

Best for: Long toppers with a bit of volume

Don’t feel like doing much? Just twist your hair up and clip it! Hair claws are perfect for a casual, effortless vibe. Or try a half-up clip for a bit of lift and dimension. Add mini barrettes to the sides to keep flyaways in place and make your hairline look even more natural.

5. Hats + Hair Topper = A Style Hack You’ll Love

Adding a hat is one of the easiest ways to style your hair topper. It’s also great for days when you want to look put together without doing much.

Here are a few combos to try:

Baseball cap + long topper = casual and sporty

Beret + wavy topper = French girl chic

Beanie + short topper = cozy and cute

Bucket hat + bang topper = sun protection and style in one

Tip: Always wear your topper first, then the hat. Choose a looser fit to avoid flattening your hair topper.
