Whether your client is just starting their toupee hairpiece journey, or they’ve been wearing one for years, they might wonder if they can work out, exercise, and sweat while wearing their toupee. The answer is YES! But the type of toupee tape or adhesive makes all the difference.

Knowing the right type of adhesive to apply to toupee hairpieces and wigs will give your clients a strong hold and the confidence needed to live their lives to the fullest (workouts included) in their new hairstyle.

Tips for Working Out While Wearing Toupee Hairpieces

Wearing a toupee during an extra sweaty workout session can cause your client unnecessary stress, especially if they’re worried about getting overheated, whether their hairpiece will stay put, or having to wash it more often.

Just because your client wears a toupee hairpiece doesn’t mean they have to give up working out and being active. In fact, they can still maintain their daily routine with just a few simple tips: 

For Daily Wear Toupees

1. Wear an older hairpiece to avoid messing up their favorites.
2. If your client is super active, they may want to consider wearing a synthetic toupee hairpiece. It’s less affected by sweat than a toupee made with natural hair, and it retains its style better.
3. Use dry shampoo to mask odors and help maintain the style of the hairpiece. Thoroughly wash it once or twice a week.
4. Getting sweaty during a good workout can be unavoidable but wearing a toupee can amp the heat up even more.Your clients may want to consider wearing a toupee cap to help absorb sweat, dirt, and oils before they reach the hair system.

For Extended Wear Toupees

1. Recommend lace bases to your active clients for better breathability.
2. Clients should use dry shampoo to absorb oils and sweat in between washes.
3. Always use adhesives that are known for their secure bond during toupee applications.
4. Choose extended or maximum-wear application toupee glues that are medical-grade and hypoallergenic to avoid scalp irritation on active, more sweat-prone scalps.

All of these tips can help your clients keep their cool (literally and figuratively!) and alleviate stress, whether they’re afraid their hairpiece will come loose during a workout, or they’ll ruin their best toupees by sweating in them.

Regardless of which style of hair system your clients choose, the best tip for working out in a toupee is to use the right high-quality toupee adhesive to start. Sunshine Tape Products has some of the most reliable and affordable adhesives on the market for your active clients.
