The Silk Top Hairpiece is a hair replacement system whose bottom is made up of three layers of silk mono, lace and diamond mono.
When viewed from the top to the bottom, each strand looks as if it is growing out of the scalp. This particular degree of naturalness is actually achieved through a very complex and time-consuming hair ventilation process involving the top and middle layers of the base of the hair replacement system.
Each strand of hair had to be tightly knoted in the middle layer (made of a very strong lace material to ensure the superior durability of the hair system) and then carefully pulled out of the top layer (made of a special material called silk), the mono very well mimicking the appearance of the human scalp).
This process hides all the knots underneath the top layer, resulting in a knotless, natural appearance throughout the bottom. To maximize the comfort of the wearer of this Toupee Hair, another very soft and silky layer is placed at the very bottom of the base, which is designed to make contact with the wearer's scalp. This layer is called Mono diamond.

The silk tiara system is undoubtedly one of the most expensive hair replacement systems for men.
Given the complexity and requirements of the hair ventilation process, it can take more than twice as long to make silk overhead hairpieces as it would for a hair system with only one base layer. This leads to higher labor costs.
In terms of base material cost, both Silk Mono and Diamond Mono are scarce materials and are less used in the hair systems industry, making it more difficult and expensive for manufacturers to procure such materials.
Silk top hairpieces as a very comprehensive hair replacement option, Silk Top hair systems will never impress wearers in terms of all the things that matter to them, such as realism, comfort and longevity. The unparalleled naturalness and imperceptible appearance of silk top hair systems is becoming increasingly popular with a growing number of hair system wearers worldwide.
All of these factors make silk-top hair systems more expensive than other types of hair systems. In general, most men's custom hair toupees now cost anywhere from $600 to $800. However, the wholesale price of the customized wig for the same silk top is significantly lower than the market price, and you can get Silk Top Hair Systems for about a $200.

They're just two very different hair systems with their own characteristics. Which one is better depends largely on the wearer's own needs and preferences, as both types of hair systems have their own advantages and are valued by different populations.
Especially popular with people who enjoy an athletic lifestyle or live in areas with hot and humid climates, lace Hair Pieces are highly prized for their superior breathability, as it has thousands of small holes that allow the wearer's scalp to breathe fully. Given the huge variation in base designs and base materials, no type of silk Top Hair system can achieve the same level of air permeability.
Nonetheless, based on feedback from our partner customers, both hair replacement systems are comfortable enough for most wearers. When it comes to how natural they look, the silk top hair system definitely wins the day - not just because hair is injected directly into the top silk monolayer to create a knot-free appearance, but also because of the fact that the single silk superficially resembles a human scalp to a greater extent.
While this is true, the lace hair system seems undetectable, especially after all the knots have been completely bleached, making the wearer feel at ease when out in public. Silk Top Hair Pieces proved to be a more advantageous option in terms of their respective service lives, as they lasted longer than six months when properly cared for. To sum up, despite the price gap, silk Top Hair Pieces may be a more advantageous option for most hair system wearers who are less concerned about the breathability of men's Toupee hair.
