Beaded Row Hair Toppers by Monaco Salon Tampa

Volumizing top-of-head extensions for thin hair & hair loss, wear them for weeks at a time!

One-third of women will experience hair loss (alopecia) at some point during their lifetime. Two-thirds of women of all ages experience thinning or bald spots. Wearing hair extensions can be a great solution, but sometimes, extensions alone aren't enough to give you the coverage you need or the natural head shape you want. Enter the topper!

Human Hair, Breathable Mesh Toppers

monaco elite mesh hair toppers in two sizesOur volumizing toppers, or hairline restoration solutions, are made of 100% human hair with a base made of lightweight breathable mesh. Wear them overnight! Our long-wearing human hair toppers are installed using our beaded row technique which allows you to wear your topper full time, enhancing your hairline with a natural, secure, and elegant look.

No glue or tape, no shaving, no more worrying if your topper is mislaid. Move with confidence. More and more women are turning to toppers to round out their style.

  • Custom cut, colored and styled for the perfect blend
  • Hand-made with Swiss lace
  • 8", 10", 12", 14" and 16"
  • Wear your hair up
  • Sleep and shower with them on

Pressure-free clips are sewn in around the base, which can be moved based on your preferences. For full-time long wear, we attach the topper using a beaded row method, just like the method we use for our popular hand tied weft extensions.  We use tiny beads in different color, depending on your hair color, so that they remain undetectable. 

Depending on your desired coverage, our toppers are available in 2 styles:

monaco trend topper

Trend Topper

Fuller coverage, but not a wig, our Trend Topper's base measures 5 x 6 inches to give coverage around the of top of the head, right up to the hairline. This style has 1/8 inch closed lace-front with under-ventilation to blend in perfectly with your hairline.

Petite Topper

Discreet coverage at the very top of the head, our Petite Topper's base is about 3 inches wide - the size of a smart phone - and is designed to enhance volume along the part line which will also give volume to your bangs and temple area.

What is a topper?

Think of toppers as hair extensions for the top of the head. Instead of multiple wefts, a topper is a single piece that ranges in size. Hair toppers are a blessing for thin hair and do a wonderful job of concealing sparse areas especially along the part line, bang area and around the temples. Our toppers can also fill in volume and extend length, just like hair extensions.

Toppers that attach with beads?

Our toppers are designed without clips or adhesive, and it's designed to securely stay in place long-term. Don't worry, we've perfected our technique so that we totally hide the edge of the topper from all angles- even around the hairline.  (We get that hairline question a lot!)

Mesh Integration

For those with very thin or sparse hair, an additional mesh barrier can make the difference between being able to wear topper or not. Mesh integration is hot in Europe right now yet not many salons in the US are offering it. Krista Abad is certified in this technique which can be incorporated into a beaded hair topper or hair extensions application as a way to increase comfort and longevity:

  • Keeps hair protected under the topper or hair extensions
  • Acts as a barrier between the hair and the attachments
  • Eases any tension or pulling on the hair shaft
  • Increases the time in between maintenance appointments

Hair Topper vs Hair Extensions

If you have thin hair or hair loss, a hair topper will do what hair extensions cannot. A topper creates that natural looking, healthy volume at the top of the head, perfectly proportioned to mimic natural hair. Hair extensions can create the volume on the sides, but if you have thin or sparse hair on top, then a hair topper will literally round out and complete your look.

The perfect permanent hair topper?

More and more hairstyle-conscious women are asking about toppers, and now they have a 'round the clock option. Traditional toppers fasten with snaps or clips, so they are applied/removed each day. With our permanent hair topper, you leave your topper in place while you sleep, swim or shower. And that's great news for those with more noticeable stages of thinning hair or hair loss who want 24/7 coverage.

  • Natural looking because it's human hair
  • Long lasting, secure fit
  • Perfectly matched to your color

Krista searched for years to find the perfect "low density" top of head piece! Finally, the wear-ability of hair extensions with the coverage of a top piece. Lightweight, breathable, no wig look, no wig feel. Krista says it's the most natural looking hair topper she has ever seen!

  • High quality European human hair
  • No bonding glue, no shaving
  • Comfortable, breathable, very discreet
  • Round the clock wear 4-8 weeks between maintenance
  • Custom colored to match your hair
  • Topper lasts 18-24 months with proper care!!!

Finally, a modern an beautiful solution for thin, sparse hair.

Topper Maintenance

Your topper will be professionally installed so you don't have to worry if you're "doing it right." After 8 weeks, your natural hair will have grown quite a bit, so we'll have you in for a maintenance visit. We'll remove and reposition your topper. After another 4 weeks, you'll come back for another short maintenance appointment so that we can tighten it. That's it, a simple in-salon maintenance routine that alternates between repositioning and tightening.

Customizing Your Topper

We have different options when it comes to customizing your topper so that you get the coverage where you need it. Of course, we customize the color to match your hair. But equally as important as the color is the size. Our toppers are available in multiple sizes which is key to creating an undetectable look.

  • Small: Used for adding volume around the crown
  • Bangs: Fringe pieces for adding fullness around the face.
  • Large: Used for volume with fuller coverage to the top and sides

Also know that our hair toppers can be combined with other types of extensions to build the perfect look all around your head. It all depends on what you want and what you need.

I had lost a lot of my hair due to an autoimmune condition and Krista worked her magic to make me feel like my normal self. Due to the thinness of my hair we had to do a mixture of bonds and wefts, but she spent so much time on making sure my extensions looked seamless and natural. I highly recommend, especially to those with more challenging cases like mine!

After losing a lot of my hair due to stress I felt extremely ashamed and ugly. The staff was incredibly supportive and made me feel more comfortable than any salon I've ever been to before. Krista does my hand tied extensions and let me just tell you, she killed it. With the help of her amazing staff, they matched my hair color perfectly

I've had extension before but I was so impressed by all the videos I watched about their techniques, the style, how classy and professional everything look, and OMG, everyone is so so so beautiful. From the moment I walked in the salon everyone was attentive, friendly and welcoming. I felt at ease and comfortable. The day of the appointment was a very special one for me, and the royal treatment from the salon's staff was number one. Krista did my extension and wow, she is amazing. Her wise advise and attention to detail are at a very professional yet friendly. She is genuine and very sweet, and so so very beautiful inside and out. I will recommend the salon to anyone. I moved to South Florida and I still come back to Tampa to get my hair taken care of at the salon.

These guys are MAGIC. I have been going to Krista for a few years now and I am so happy I made the decision. As a transplant from NYC, I previously used to travel to back to have my extensions re-done. My only regret is that I didn’t find her sooner! Krista and her team does a beautiful job time after time. I have extremely short (and very fine!) hair and have been doing the Great Lengths extensions for over five years. Krista has made my own hair healthier and strong enough to continue to have the extensions for my wanted volume and length. I would HIGHLY recommend Krista for anyone looking to get extensions as she is the best in class. Thanks to Team Monaco for keeping me looking and feeling beautiful!

Common Questions About Our Hair Toppers

What does low density mean?
When we refer to your topper as being low density, it does not mean the hair is less dense. You're definitely getting the coverage you need. Low density refers to the band, the piece that holds the topper together. Krista searched high and low to find a low density hair topper, and this piece is lightweight, comfortable and breathable. Our clients are astonished how there's no tightness, no wig look or feel, and how they don't even feel the attachments. Those benefits are all thanks to "low density!"
