If you’ve been wearing your hair topper with the same side part for a while, switching things up can completely refresh your look. Changing the part not only adds volume but also keeps your style looking natural and dynamic.

In the video below, our expert stylist Debora Routhe demonstrates exactly how to move your part from one side to the other, making your topper look brand new in just a few minutes.

Step-by-Step Guide to Changing the Part on Your Topper
Here’s a quick breakdown of Debora’s expert method:
1. Prep with Water
Spray a light mist of water into the root area of your topper. This helps loosen the set direction of the fibers, making it easier to restyle.
2. Comb Back the Hair
Use a fine-tooth comb to brush the topper straight back. This clears the old part and sets the stage for creating a new one.
3. Create the New Part
With the tail end of your comb—or simply your hand—press down and force a new part in the direction you want. In Debora’s demo, she moves the part from the left to the right side.
4. Lock in the Direction with Heat
Using a blow dryer with a nozzle attachment, focus airflow directly at the root. This step is key: the concentrated heat trains the hair to lie smoothly in its new direction.
💡 Pro Tip from Debora: Skip the brush if you want a more natural look—your hands can work just as well for guiding the hair into place.
5. Style and Finish
Once the topper is completely dry, gently comb it into place. That’s it—you’ve successfully transformed your part!
Benefits of Restyling Your Topper Part
- Adds Freshness: A new part can instantly make your style feel different without needing a haircut or color change.
- Increases Volume: Switching sides often adds lift at the roots.
- Extends Longevity: Restyling prevents your topper from looking “set” in one direction over time.
- Boosts Confidence: A fresh part can make your topper look more natural and blend seamlessly with your bio hair.

Will changing the part damage my topper?
Not if done correctly. Gentle handling and using the right tools will protect your piece.
Can this technique add volume to thinning hair?
Yes! Changing your part is one of the easiest ways to add natural lift and make your topper blend better with your bio hair.
