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.

  1. Use a hand mirror and a wall mirror

    You can't see your crown directly. Set up two mirrors before you start.

  2. Part the hair away from the spot

    Expose the thinning area so fibers land on the strands around it.

  3. Apply in short bursts

    Two or three light shakes, then check. Building up gradually looks more natural than one heavy pass.

  4. Brush in the direction of growth

    The crown grows in a whorl. Brush with it so the fibers sit the way your hair does.

  5. Set with spray

    The crown takes the most wind and contact (headrests, hats). Always lock it in.

Best fibers for this: Toppik for hold, Caboki for color range, Boldify on a budget. Compare all.
Wash out nightly with Regenepure DR with ketoconazole to keep the scalp clear.

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.
