Order and selection

How can I order a wig or topper?

Ordering our products is simple and can be done directly through our webshop. We always keep some models in stock, ready for quick delivery, while others can be custom-made according to your wishes, including length, density, color, and other details. If you need assistance during your selection, feel free to contact us via email or Instagram — we will be happy to personally guide you through the entire process and recommend the best option for your needs.

How will I know if I'm a candidate for a wig or a topper?

A wig is ideal if you want full scalp coverage, want to change your look, or have significant hair loss. A topper is an excellent choice for thinning hair, reduced density at the crown, or if you want extra volume without needing to wear a full wig. If you're unsure what's best for you, send us a photo of your hair in daylight and a brief description of what you want to achieve, and we'll recommend the most suitable solution.

How do I know if my wig is the right size and will stay on securely?

Measuring your head is very simple and only takes a few moments with a tailor's tape measure. Our wig caps are flexible and have adjustable elastic straps and internal fasteners, so small differences in measurement are not a problem. If you want extra assurance, you can send us your measurements and a photo of how you measured, and we will check if you did everything correctly. When the size is well chosen, the wig is comfortable, stable, and does not require gluing.

How to choose a hair shade and be sure the color is right?

We display all shades as naturally as possible, with photos and videos taken in natural light so you can get the most realistic impression of the color. If you are unsure which shade would be best for you, you can send us a photo of your hair taken in natural light without filters, and we will recommend the closest option.

It is important to note that color display may vary depending on the settings and quality of your mobile phone, laptop, or monitor screen. We cannot influence this, nor the fact that natural hair – as an organic material – is subject to changes in appearance depending on lighting conditions. The shade may appear slightly lighter in strong daylight and darker indoors, which is completely normal.

If, despite everything, the color does not match your tone or expectation, you still have the option of returning it according to our return policy, so your purchase remains safe and risk-free.

What all does my order include?

With your wig or topper, you receive basic instructions for proper product care and handling, as well as all necessary accessories that can help your wig sit perfectly and securely.

How long does it take to make a custom wig?

The production time depends on the complexity of the model, the cap type, and the chosen specifications. The standard production time in the premium segment is 5-8 weeks. For very long lengths or particularly specific colors, the deadline may be slightly longer, but we confirm every detail in advance to avoid any surprises.

What can I choose for a custom wig

With a personalized wig, you have the option to choose how the result perfectly matches your look and lifestyle. You select the length, density, color, and texture of the hair, the cut, and the size. Before production begins, you will receive written confirmation of all details, including information about the possibility of return, so you are completely confident in what you are ordering.

A personalized wig is the right choice if you want every element to be tailored just for you and for the result to look natural, harmonious, and unique—like hair that was made for you.

How will I know if my customized wig is eligible for return?

For custom-made wigs, you will always receive clear, written confirmation in advance about whether your model is eligible for return. This way, before final confirmation of your order, you have all important information and assurance that you know exactly under what conditions you are ordering. Our goal is for you to feel fully informed and at ease throughout the entire process.

Availability and Try-on

Where are you located, do you have a showroom?

Adeline is an online brand based in Zagreb, and our products are available for purchase through our webshop. We currently do not have a permanent showroom, but throughout the year, we organize pop-up events and special appointments where you can try on wigs and toppers in person. We announce all such dates on our Instagram profile in a timely manner, so we invite you to follow us to stay updated.

Can I try on the wig before buying it?

Although we don't have a permanent showroom, we've designed the online wig selection process to be simple, secure, and as close to an in-person experience as possible. With clear visual instructions for head measurement, displays of internal caps, and detailed model photographs, most customers can easily find the ideal size and shape.

Our wig caps are flexible and adjustable, with elastic straps and secure fasteners, so measurements don't have to be absolutely precise for the wig to fit perfectly.

If you have any additional questions or would like confirmation of your measurements' accuracy, you can send us photos and measurements, and we will personally guide you through the selection process.
The option for returns also provides additional security, so you don't have to worry if the model doesn't suit you after all.

Što ako ne mogu doći na isprobavanje u Zagreb?

Ako ne možete doći u naš showroom u Zagrebu ili jednostavno želite dodatnu pomoć prije kupnje, možete dogovoriti online konzultacije s Adeline timom.

Tijekom konzultacija možemo vam pokazati modele koji vas zanimaju, objasniti razlike među njima te vas savjetovati oko odabira perike ili topera, veličine, boje i drugih detalja važnih za vaše potrebe. Imat ćete priliku postaviti sva svoja pitanja i dobiti konkretnu preporuku prije donošenja odluke.

Za dogovor termina javite nam se putem kontakt forme ili nekog od naših kontakata.

About products

Can your wigs be worn by women with hair, without hair, or during chemotherapy?

Yes. Our wigs can be worn by women with full hair, partial hair loss, complete hair loss, or women undergoing chemotherapy. The caps are designed to be comfortable, breathable, and adjustable, and many clients with sensitive scalps particularly highlight their comfort and ease of wear.

Although the wigs are not medically certified, a large number of our users are women undergoing medical treatments and looking for a comfortable, safe, and aesthetically natural solution.

What kind of hair do you use? (Virgin and Remy Brazilian hair)

Our wigs are made exclusively from high-quality Brazilian 100% human hair, known for its density, elasticity, and natural pliability. Such hair tolerates styling very well, retains its hairstyle, and looks exceptionally natural with every movement.

We use two premium categories of hair:

Virgin unprocessed hair
This is the highest quality available on the market. Virgin hair has never been chemically treated, and all cuticles are preserved and aligned in the same direction. This makes it exceptionally long-lasting, soft, and naturally shiny.

Remy hair
Remy hair also has preserved and aligned cuticles, and it is high-quality, professionally colored hair. This means it is perfectly smooth, resistant to tangling, and extremely comfortable for everyday wear, with the natural look you expect from a premium wig.

Both types of hair are considered the highest standard in the industry and behave like completely healthy, natural hair.

How to choose the density so that it isn't "too much", too dense or with a hat effect?

Density is a very individual preference, but also the most common concern for women who are not used to having a lot of hair due to alopecia or naturally thin hair. If you want a natural and everyday look, it is best to choose densities of 130% or 150%, especially if you have thinning hair or want it to be as similar as possible to your natural hair.

Densities such as 180% and 200% are chosen by women who prefer a more glamorous, fuller volume or who frequently style their hair in waves and curls.

It is important to know that the visual impression of density is also affected by styling: straightening reduces volume, while blow-drying or curling increases volume. Also, natural hair loses a small number of strands over time, which is normal and contributes to a long-term natural look.

Are your wigs medical?

Our wigs are not medically certified, but in terms of quality of craftsmanship and comfort, they meet the needs of many women facing hair loss due to health reasons. The materials we use—natural hair, breathable caps, and lightweight mesh—are comfortable and gentle on the scalp, suitable for women with no hair or sensitive skin.

Why do wigs have short hairs on top?

The short hairs you see at the top of the wig are called return hairs and are a natural result of hand-sewing hair into the cap. They mimic baby hairs, or new hair, and contribute to a more natural scalp appearance. They are easily smoothed and styled, and when properly styled, they completely disappear into the hairstyle.

How do density and styling affect the final look?

Even the same density can look completely different depending on the hairstyle. Straightening hair visually thins and lengthens it, while waves and blow-dry styles create fullness. If you want your wig to look identical to your natural hair, we recommend considering how you usually style your hair – this will give you the best direction when choosing a density.

Is it normal for a new wig to shed a few strands?

Yes, a few stray hairs on the brush or during combing is completely normal and does not mean the wig is of poor quality. This is a natural occurrence with hand-tied human hair wigs. After a short period of use, this initial shedding decreases, and the wig behaves like your natural hair.

Can the cap stretch over time?

Slight cap adjustment is normal during the first few wears, especially for wigs worn daily. The cap will not stretch drastically but will naturally mold to the head to become even more comfortable. If you want additional stability, internal fasteners and elastic straps allow for fine adjustment.

Styling and blow-drying

How to properly put on and take off a wig?

The easiest way to put on a wig is to first align it with your own hairline, then pull it down towards the nape of your neck, and gently adjust the elastic straps. When the cap is properly adjusted, the wig will sit snugly but comfortably, without feeling tight. To remove it, simply lift it from the nape of your neck forward, without pulling on the lace front to protect it from wear and tear.

Should I use glue, or can wigs stay on without adhesive?

Our wigs are designed to be worn completely glueless. The caps are flexible, comfortable, and feature internal fasteners and adjustable straps that ensure stability without additional fixation. You can use glue if you want extra security for special occasions, extended wear, or a perfectly flat hairline, but most women do not need glue at all.

How do I know my wig is secure enough?

A wig is properly fitted when it doesn't move with normal head movements and doesn't slip forward. It should be stable, yet comfortable — without feeling tight or pressured. Adjust the elastic straps until you achieve a balance of comfort and security, and the internal fasteners provide additional stability if you need it. Center the wig using the internal reinforcements at the temples to ensure it is positioned correctly.

Is the mesh visible in person?

When properly trimmed and fitted, the lace looks extremely natural and undetectable. Many people don't even see it up close, especially in daylight. It's important to cut close enough to the first hairs and not leave too much space in front of the hairline. When worn without adhesive, the lace still looks realistic, but with adhesive, the transition at the forehead can be completely invisible.

You said the mesh wouldn't be visible, but I can see a few centimeters of mesh on the forehead—is that normal?

Yes, it's completely normal. Every new wig comes with excess lace at the front so you can customize it to your hairline. This excess is always trimmed before wearing, and its presence indicates that the wig is new and unworn. After proper trimming, the lace becomes undetectable and blends with the skin, creating a natural hairline.

How to cut excess mesh?

It is best to cut the lace slowly and gradually, in a thin arc that follows the line of the first hairs on the wig, with irregular movements. Start a few millimeters away from the sewn hairline, and if necessary, you can further trim the lace to perfectly match your hairline. It is important to avoid sudden or irregular movements to prevent damaging the lace.

Can you cut the mesh for me?

We can, but please note that a wig whose lace has been pre-cut cannot be returned. Cutting the lace is considered a product customization, making it unsuitable for another person to wear. If you would like us to cut it for you, you will always receive written confirmation beforehand that this will make the wig non-returnable.

My wig is puffy or “wrinkled” when I take it out of the box — is this normal?

Yes, it's completely normal. Natural hair reacts to packaging and transport just as it would react to lying on a pillow during sleep. It may be slightly raised, puffed up, or shaped in the direction it was lying. After a light combing or brief styling, the wig returns to its natural drape and shape. This does not affect quality but is part of the normal behavior of real human hair.

Can I change the hairstyles on wigs?

Yes, you can style wigs just like natural hair. You can easily make a low ponytail, a low bun, a half-updo, or use clips and pins. Straightening, curling, and blow-drying are also possible because it's natural human hair. High ponytails can be created with a few extra tricks, and we demonstrate all these styles on our Instagram profile.

Care and Maintenance

How often should I wash my wig or topper?

The usual washing frequency depends on how often you wear the product, but human hair wigs and toppers are usually sufficient to wash every few weeks (3-4). If you wear them daily, it may be a bit more frequent, and if you wear them occasionally, the intervals can be longer. Detailed washing instructions come with each product to ensure you use the appropriate procedures and products.

Can I use hot tools, oils, or styling products?

Yes, you can use all the tools you would use on your own hair — flat iron, curling iron, hairdryer, and even most styling products. We recommend gentle products without harsh ingredients to keep the hair in the best possible condition for as long as possible. Recommendations on temperatures, products, and proper handling are included in the instructions you receive with your wig or topper.

How long can a wig last with normal wear?

Natural hair on a wig behaves like real hair: the better it is maintained, the longer it will last. With daily wear, a wig can last from nine months to 2-3 years, while with occasional wear it can last even longer. Longevity is affected by your styling methods, care, lifestyle habits, and washing frequency. Our clients often wear their wigs for several years, depending on care and intensity of use.

What should I pay special attention to in order to preserve my wig for as long as possible?

The most important thing is to handle the wig's cap gently, as it is the thinnest and most delicate part of the wig. It is recommended to avoid pulling the wig forward by the cap and to carefully comb the hair, especially when wet. Store the wig on a stand to maintain its shape and prevent tangling. All additional recommendations and steps for proper care can be found in the written guide included with your product.

Everyday carry and practical situations

Will my wig fall off?

When a wig is properly sized and well-adjusted, it should not slip or move during normal daily activities. The caps are flexible and have internal fasteners and elastic straps that allow for adjustment to your head. Most women wear our wigs without glue, with complete security and stability.

Can I sleep with a wig or topper on?

Sleeping with a wig or topper is possible, but generally not recommended as the hair can tangle overnight and the cap can be further damaged by lying down. If you do occasionally fall asleep with your wig on, it is advisable to gently comb it out and store it properly after waking up to preserve its quality and lifespan.

Can I swim, exercise, or be active with a wig on?

You can be active, but it's important to know that intense activities and water (especially salty and chlorinated) dry out the natural hair of a wig faster. If you swim, it's recommended to tie up your hair to minimize contact with water. For lighter activities like walking or low-intensity exercises, the wig will remain stable, but for more intense workouts, it might be more practical to use additional fasteners or a sports cap.

How to travel with a wig and how to store it properly when I'm not wearing it?

It's best to pack your wig in a protective bag to help it retain its shape and protect the hair from friction. When traveling, you can wear it on your head or store it in your carry-on luggage. When not wearing it, it's ideal to place it on a wig stand to prevent tangling and creasing. This way, the wig will maintain its shape and look neat every time you put it on again.

Shipping, customs, and payment

How long does delivery take?

Delivery time depends on the country to which the package is being sent.
Within Croatia, shipments usually arrive within two to five working days.
For countries within the European Union, it takes approximately three to seven working days, while for countries outside the EU, the deadline may be somewhat longer, depending on the local postal service and customs procedures.

What are the shipping costs?

Delivery within Croatia is free for all orders.
For countries in the Region and the European Union, the standard delivery cost stated on our website and visible at checkout applies. We display all amounts transparently so that you know the total cost of your order in advance, with no hidden fees.

Do you deliver internationally?

Yes, we ship to almost all countries worldwide.
If your country is not listed in the menu during checkout, feel free to contact us and we will check the possibility of shipping to your address. We pack our products safely and professionally to ensure they arrive undamaged, regardless of the distance.

Do I pay customs duties or other import fees?

No customs or additional import duties are charged within Croatia and the European Union.
For countries outside the EU, the local government may charge customs, tax or some other fee upon the package's entry into the country. These costs are entirely dependent on your country's rules and regulations and are not income for our store, nor can we influence them. For orders outside the EU, the buyer bears all costs of customs, taxes and return shipping. These duties are charged by the recipient's country and can usually not be refunded. These fees are charged by your local customs service, so we recommend that you inform yourself about the applicable regulations before purchasing if you are ordering from outside the EU.

Returns and complaints

Can I return a wig or topper if it doesn't suit me?

Yes, returns are possible for standard (non-personalized) wigs and toppers regardless of the delivery country, provided they are returned in completely original and unused condition (for details, see chapter "Shipping and Returns").

For customers from countries outside the European Union (e.g., Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Montenegro), returns are also possible, but the customer bears all return costs and any customs duties, taxes, and import charges of their country (Adeline does not charge them and cannot refund them).

We allow returns to facilitate remote purchasing, especially if you are ordering a wig for the first time and want to ensure you have chosen the correct model.

What are the return conditions?

For a return to be accepted, the product must be:

  • unused and unworn, with no signs of wear
  • free of odors, products, makeup, moisture, or marks on the lace or anywhere on the product
  • with the lace intact, uncut, and undamaged (for wigs)
  • without washing, styling, or heat styling
  • in its original packaging, along with all accessories and tags
  • securely packed to prevent damage during transport

The same applies to toppers, with the addition that clip-in combs must be undamaged, and the hair free of signs of friction, styling, or product.

Returns must be announced via email, and the product returned within the legal period of 14 days from the date of receipt.

Check the detailed return conditions in the "Deliveries and Returns" section.

What is your return process?

  1. Send us a brief notification by email — so we can send you instructions for safe packaging and the return address.
  2. Carefully pack the product in its original packaging.
  3. Send the package and send us proof of shipment for tracking purposes.

We recommend sending it as registered mail, with tracking and preferably as insured mail, given the value of the product. Adeline, unfortunately, cannot take responsibility for lost shipments during return. Once the shipment arrives and passes inspection, we will process the refund.

When will I get my refund?

After we receive the product and confirm that the return conditions are met, the refund is usually processed within a few business days. The money will be returned using the same payment method used for the original order. You will be notified of the refund status via email.

What if the wig is custom-made?

Personalised wigs (custom-made) have special return rules as they are made according to your preferences and are not universal products.

To ensure full transparency, before production begins, you will receive written confirmation of whether your model falls into the category of potentially returnable products (commercial colours, lengths, densities, sizes), or into the category of non-returnable products made exclusively according to your specifications.

This confirmation is part of every personalised order, so that you know everything in advance and without risk. Personalised wigs where the lace has been pre-cut at your request, or a wig customised to specific measurements, colours, densities or lengths that are not commercial, cannot be returned, as they cannot be offered to another person.
