How to Prevent Your Men’s Hair System from Fading — Lyrical Hair’s Expert Guide
Wearing a high-quality men’s hair system from Lyrical Hair isn’t just about restoring your hair — it’s about restoring your confidence, youth, and personal style. As one of the most trusted U.S.-based hair system brands, Lyrical Hair offers premium, natural-looking toupees for men that give you back the freedom to look and feel your best every day.
But even the best hair systems deserve the right care. One of the most common questions our clients ask is:
“Why does my hair system fade over time, and how can I prevent it?”
Let’s dive into why hair systems lose color — and how you can protect your Lyrical Hair toupee to keep it looking rich, fresh, and vibrant for months.
Why Hair Systems Fade

Even though Lyrical Hair’s products are made from premium human hair and processed with advanced color technology, all hair systems can fade over time due to:
-
☀️ UV exposure – Direct sunlight oxidizes the hair, leading to red or orange undertones.
-
💧 Hot water & frequent washing – Strips color and natural oils.
-
🧴 Harsh shampoos – Sulfates and alcohols dry and fade colored hair.
-
🏊 Chlorine and saltwater – Bleach pigments and damage the hair shaft.
-
🔥 Heat styling – Opens the cuticle and accelerates color loss.
Knowing the cause is step one. Preventing it — that’s where Lyrical Hair’s expertise shines.
6 Proven Ways to Prevent Hair System Color Fading
1. Protect Your Hair System from the Sun
UV rays are a silent color killer. When spending time outdoors, use a UV-protection spray or wear a hat.
Lyrical Hair’s real human hair toupees retain color longer, but an extra layer of protection helps preserve your tone and shine.
2. Skip the Heat
Minimize the use of hot styling tools and always use a heat protectant before blow-drying or straightening.
Air-drying is your best friend — gentle, natural, and color-safe.
3. Wash Smart, Not Hard
Avoid washing your toupee with hot water.
Use lukewarm or cold water and a color-safe, sulfate-free shampoo to prevent pigment loss.
Lyrical Hair recommends washing your system every 7–10 wears for best results.
4. Use Products for Colored or Treated Hair
Always choose shampoos and conditioners designed for hair systems or color-treated hair.
Avoid generic products that contain alcohol or sulfates — they can strip your color in a single wash.
5. Limit Shampoo Frequency
Overwashing removes natural oils and accelerates fading.
If your system feels oily or sticky, refresh it with dry shampoo or a leave-in conditioner instead of daily washing.
6. Protect Your Hair While Swimming
Chlorine and saltwater are harsh on human hair.
Before diving in, wear a swim cap or rinse your hair system with fresh water and apply a protective conditioner to act as a barrier.
When to Refresh vs. Replace Your System
Even with perfect care, some fading is natural.
If your Lyrical Hair system begins to lose its original tone, you can use color-depositing conditioners to restore the shade.
However, if your system shows heavy fading or wear, take advantage of Lyrical Hair’s large in-stock collection — available in multiple colors, base types, and densities — and receive your replacement within 3–4 days, thanks to our U.S.-based warehouse and 24-hour shipping.
