How to Use Hair Fibers on a Thinning Crown
The crown is where hair fibers work best. How to apply, blend and set fibers on a thinning crown or vertex.
Use a hand mirror and a wall mirror
You can't see your crown directly. Set up two mirrors before you start.
Part the hair away from the spot
Expose the thinning area so fibers land on the strands around it.
Apply in short bursts
Two or three light shakes, then check. Building up gradually looks more natural than one heavy pass.
Brush in the direction of growth
The crown grows in a whorl. Brush with it so the fibers sit the way your hair does.
Set with spray
The crown takes the most wind and contact (headrests, hats). Always lock it in.
FAQ
Why do fibers look best on the crown?
The crown usually still has fine, miniaturized hairs. Fibers wrap around them and hide scalp contrast, which is what people notice.
Will a hat rub fibers off?
A tight hat can. Set the fibers with spray first and choose a loose-fitting hat.
