Yes. Hair by V pieces are made with 100% human hair and can be colored with care. I recommend working with a professional hairstylist who has experience with human-hair extensions, wigs or toppers.
Most Hair by V pieces are already color-processed, so I do not recommend bleaching or lightening previously processed hair. Virgin, untreated hair may be lightened with extra care and always after a strand test.
Hair by V no longer offers coloring services on previously purchased or worn pieces. Custom roots, hairline coloring, hairline roots and lowlights remain available when purchasing a new Hair by V piece.
Need help? I’m always happy to advise you or your hairstylist on the most suitable coloring approach, formula or products for your Hair by V piece. You’ll find more information and recommended stylists on my Color & Cut page.

Hair by V is primarily an online-based webshop, not a traditional salon. For this reason, I do not offer standard in-person fittings or consultations for general purchases.
Most clients order an in-stock piece online and try it comfortably at home. This allows you to see how the piece fits, feels and blends with your own hair in a relaxed setting.
For clients experiencing urgent medical hair loss, for example due to chemotherapy or alopecia, a very limited number of in-person appointments may be available by application only.
If you need help choosing the right style, size, color or construction, please first check the FAQ, Comparison pages and Size Chart. If you still have a specific question afterwards, I’m always happy to help by email.
The right choice depends on your individual needs, your own hair and the amount of coverage you prefer.A topper is designed to add coverage and volume to the top of the head while allowing your own hair to remain visible and blend with the piece.A wig provides full coverage and can be a better option when you prefer not to blend your own hair or need more overall coverage.Fit and appearance can vary depending on factors such as head circumference, your own hair, placement and styling.Please also review the product description carefully before placing your order.
Eligible in-stock pieces can be purchased online and carefully tried on at home.This allows you to assess the colour, fit and overall look in your own environment before deciding whether to keep the piece.If you may wish to return it, the lace must not be cut or altered and the hair must not be washed, coloured, cut, chemically treated or heat styled. The piece may only be tried on briefly and carefully.Pre-orders, custom and personalised pieces, and sale or stock-clearance items are final sale and are not eligible for return.
For full return and try-on conditions, please refer to our Refund & Return Policy and Terms & Conditions.

Please read the return policy carefully: pre-orders are non-returnable.
Before you order any wig or topper (anywhere), do yourself a favor and research first.Please take the time to understand what you’re buying and what to realistically expect:Different cap constructions (lace top, SL top, silk top, lace front, hand-tied, etc.) -> check the pictures and info in the comparison pages on the website Hair grades and how they impact look & feelLongevity per construction: not every cap is meant to survive the same wear schedule. Different budget options are added on request, have realistic expectations Bleached knots: pros & cons (especially the trade-off between “invisible” vs weaker / less durable) invisible vs durable. The effect on lifespan and shedding.Care instructions: they’re not “optional reading”, they’re the difference between months and yearsAll of this is clearly explained on the Hair by V website, including detailed comparisons and care guidance, so please read it thoroughly before ordering.
