Kennedy has struggled with hair loss since she was thirteen. For a long time, she believed there were only two real options for someone dealing with thinning hair. One was getting a wig. The other was getting a hair transplant. Neither option felt right to her.
A hair transplant seemed risky.
In her video, she said, “I didn’t want to get a hair transplant cuz it’s expensive and it might not work and it might just make it worse.”
Wigs did not feel like the right choice either.
“They can be so expensive and hit or miss,” she explained. She also wanted to keep some of her natural hair. She hoped for something that still felt like herself.
This changed when she discovered hair toppers.
How Kennedy Found Hair Toppers
Kennedy learned about hair toppers when UniWigs reached out to her. They introduced her to the Airy Elegance hair topper, which instantly caught her attention. The brand sells both wigs and hair toppers, but the hair topper caught her attention immediately. It seemed to sit between a full wig and doing nothing at all.
She described a hair topper as “basically like half a wig because it just goes on top of your head and your natural hair is still on the bottom.”
That was exactly what she wanted. It blended with her hair, it felt lighter, and it allowed her own hair to be part of the final look.
The Airy Elegance topper she tried has a lace top. The lace is slightly see-through, which helps it blend with her pale forehead. Her natural hair is very dark, so good blending matters. The lace makes the transition look soft and natural.
How Kennedy Preps and Applies Her Hair Topper
Kennedy has her own simple method for applying a hair topper. It is quick and easy for beginners.
She starts by placing the hair topper so the front faces her.
Sometimes she glues her baby hairs down, but in this video she said, “I’m not going to do that cuz I don’t think I need it.”
She makes sure her natural hair is styled so it blends well. For this look, “I lightly curled my hair so it will blend with the topper.”
Then she flips the hair topper onto her head. She is careful as she does this.
“You don’t want to pull all that hair forward,” she said.
She places it slightly forward on her forehead and then slides it back to the right position.
Next, she lines up her part with the hair topper part. This step is important.
Then she clips it in place.
“You want to take the clip and scoop it in and clip.”
After clipping, she uses her fingers to blend everything together. Sometimes she lifts the front edge and smooths her real hair underneath because small pieces can stick out. This little step helps the blend look clean.
This routine works well for her and feels natural.
How Wearing a Hair Topper Made Her Feel
For Kennedy, the biggest change was not just how she looked. It was how she felt.
The hair topper gave her confidence.
It helped her feel like herself again.
She said in the video, “I feel normal and I feel feminine.”
Many girls who deal with hair loss understand these feelings. Losing hair can make someone feel like they are losing a part of their identity. Kennedy felt that too.
She is only eighteen, and hair loss at this age is very hard. Finding something that made her feel comfortable again was very important. The hair topper helped her feel better in her daily life.
Why Kennedy Recommends Hair Toppers
Kennedy believes more women should know about hair toppers.
It is not a wig.
It is not a transplant.
It is easy to use.
It blends with natural hair.
It looks natural.
She believes women of all ages can benefit from them. Younger women. Older women. Anyone who struggles with hair loss.
At the end of her video, she said, “I think it’s amazing.”
This is how she truly feels. The Airy Elegance topper helped her enjoy her hair again without stress. It helped her feel more like herself.
