Hey,

I am considering trying Toppik or Nanofibers, has anyone had any experience of either product under UV/Disco light?

I have read in the past that Toppik shows up under UV lighting, is this the case? and if so is this the case with Nanofibers also?

Hey Guys,

Thanks for replying.

Chuckisduck, I am still young and go to clubs most weekends, at the moment I choose clubs where I the dress code is not so strict and allow hats, but this is a hassle what with friends wanting to move from club to club ect.

I had a transplant a couple of month ago, I hope all the hat wearing will be behind me soon but while its growing in I am considering using Toppik/Nanofibers, I just dont want my head lighting up like a glow in the dark ball while walking around. lol

Hmm I actually don't know about this with Toppik... That's a good question.
I currently use Empire Hair Max it has pH of 5.5 i think... Also with Dead Sea salt powder which is amazing!

Here's a link to a store if you are interested:

Thanks for the Advert George

I've only used Nanogen once when under UV lights and it didn't glow, (thank God, I didn't know it was a possibility!) can't answer for Toppik, let me know if you try it!

Although, if you use the white colour of anything surely it might? Wouldn't know my hair still dark
