It’s the right choice if…

• You want full coverage, not partial: the base covers the entire frontal and central hairline area.
• You want real European hair in a custom colour, from natural blonde to dark brown and grey.
• You don’t want to use glue or tape every day: the elastic back band replaces both.
• You need a parting that holds up close, in any setting.
• You want a system you can manage yourself, without weekly salon visits.

It’s not the right choice if…

• You only need to add density to one area: a partial topper (8×10″) is a better fit.
• You’re looking for synthetic hair: Elara Silk Top is made only with natural European hair.
• You prefer a system applied with glue or professional tape: this base is built for glueless wear.

How to wear Elara Silk Top — Glueless application

5. Prep your natural hair by flattening it under a wig cap or clips.
6. Position Elara Silk Top starting at the front, aligning the skin perimeter with your natural hairline.
7. Adjust the elastic back band until it holds securely, without overtightening.
8. Set the parting in the Silk zone, combing gently to open the centre section.
9. Finish the front edge with a fine-tooth comb so the perimeter blends into the skin.

Ready in under 5 minutes, no glue.

Silk base or traditional lace: what changes at the parting

Elara Silk Top:

• Hair comes out single-strand, with no visible knots — what makes the parting look real even up close.
• The base is more opaque than traditional lace, comfortable for all-day skin contact.
• Suited to daily wear, letting you move the parting around without it showing.

Traditional lace (like Selene Lace Top):

• Offers breathability across the entire surface, not just the centre zone.
• Allows high ponytails and updos, thanks to the sheerness across the whole perimeter.
• Better suited to those who want styling versatility beyond the parting itself.

If a parting that disappears, even up close, is your priority, Elara Silk Top’s Silk base is the more direct choice. If you often wear high ponytails or updos, Selene Lace Top’s lace base stays more versatile. Explore Selene Lace Top to compare the two bases, or browse our women’s wigs for the full range.

Caring for Elara Silk Top

Elara Silk Top is made with natural virgin European hair, the same Remy quality that gives it a lifespan of 5-8 months with daily wear and correct care. Wash it every 7-10 wears with a sulfate-free shampoo, apply a light conditioner to the ends only, and let it air-dry, avoiding the maximum styling heat of 356°F (180°C) when it’s not needed. For the full routine and products compatible with the Silk base, check the Newlacecu maintenance kit.
