Better than Toppik

I am extremely pleased with MegaTHIK. It works as well as (if not better than) Toppik, and it's not dull and flat. My hair shines all over, and people have noticed the change. At least with the medium brown color, it seems to be the exact same shade as Toppik. I highly recommend this product!
I was very disatisfied

This product was to dark and thick! Making it look crazy! It actually looked like there was marker on my head and patchy. I have been using toopik for years Ran out tried Mega thick to my disgust Bad product for woman. You can't notice toppik it blends so fast tiny and no one believes I wear it I have been told I am crazy till I show them the bottle. After using it It just is so easy and stays on beautiful and no one knows!. As far as Mega Thick! maybe men only. I tried eye shadow in a light brown and it looked better then Mega thick Thumbs down!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mega THIK vs. Toppik

As the name says, it is MEGA Thik. Right now I use it as a "base" & apply TOPPIK above it. I find that Mega doesn't hold on to my hair as well as Toppik. I also notice much more floating it's way into my sink when applying. I will wait for TOPPIK to go on sale for $49.99 for the largest size & stock up.
Fibers Don't Stay Put

Fibers fly away and drift onto your face and clothes even if you apply lots of hair spray. The colors are too dark.
The BEST OUT THERE!!!

I came upon this product because the others were not available yet.It has to be the best stumble I ever made.It looks so natrual and the thickness allows me to use it once every 2-3 days. When I USED Toppik I had to use Fullmore with it to get a Black appearence of hair.Toppik shows all of the pigments(red,rust,ect)when it suppose to be black.Ithink they need to look at houw it is manfactured.Organin clumps because thethe fibers are not broken down enough.This Megathik blends in so natrual.It looks like real hair once I USE THE SPRAYS ON IT!! sIMPLY THE BEST!!!

I do not like how the product dipenses. It does not come out evenly

The medium dark was way too dark for me in comparison to Organin. I prefer Organin's color and the price as well.

not as good as toppik -- too dark but good for supplementing toppik on lower layers of hair
did not care for the product

I'm a 47 year old woman who's been fighting thinning hair for several years. I've tried Toppik and DermMatch; neither looks as good at this product. The other reviewers are absolutely correct that Toppik is very 'flat'... this blends naturally into hair with a nice shine... and I actually use less than other products. It stays in place well too. I'm so glad I read the other reviews and decided to give it a try!
Toppik is the clearer winner

Like the person from 12/10/07 said, there is no competition between this product and Toppik. It was much more obvious during wear than Toppik (embarrassment!), and got EVERYWHERE!! And the fibers are huge compared to Toppik. I won't even be using this as a backup... I'd rather go out with my thin hair than be seen with this anymore. It doesn't stick to your hair very well, even with hairspray to bond it, and won't come off of your skin without scrubbing (so protect your face during application!). Overall, I'd pay the extra $$ if I had it to get Toppik over MegaThik.
Not very happy with the product

I have been using Toppik for a few years. I tried MegaThik because it was cheaper and I wanted to see how it compared.
It doesn't compare.
It is SO much messier. After you put it on, if you even touch your hair it will seem like a snowstorm coming from your head. (Not to mention that it will be all over your fingers.) I had to wash my hands every time i touched my head. And it gets EVERYWHERE...so every time I used it I had to wipe down the sink and surrounding areas.
Also...the bottle was only like half full when I got it. I don't know if this is normal (I'm assuming it is)...but I only got like 2 weeks (or less) use out of it. Really, I only used it as an emergency back-up for Toppik. I would never use it regularly and I definitely do not recommend it.

I liked the product, but the Light Brown is really a medium-dark brown. They need to fix this color.
O.K., but Too Clumpy

I have been using Toppik for a few years, and find the coverage to be good. However, the price is way too high. But --- I wouldn't/couldn't be without it, or some type of hair fibers. Having found the Folica website, I now see that I have options.
I ordered Organin, for a much better price than Toppik, and found it to be just as good, if not better - because it has a shine to it. Toppik is very dull. All of these products leave the bathroom a mess!!! I clean the counter after each use, but the powder leaves a horrible film on the floor, bath carpets and anything and everything else in the bathroom. But I still wouldn't be without some kind of hair fibers, as they cover the bald spots and also make the hair fuller. Hairspray holds everything in place, but of course that also goes all over the bathroom and makes the fibers stick to everything. Oh, the price of beauty!
On to MegaTHIK... I prefer Organin and Toppik over it, because it has little clumps throughout. But MegaTHIK is also much less expensive than Toppik. Also, nothing comes out of the shaker top because of the clumps. I poured the MegaTHIK into a Toppik container. I've tried to 'open' the clumps, but this takes a great amount of time. Organin is now my first choice, but the colors I need are constantly out of stock. This is very annoying and frustrating. Because MegaTHIK is a much better price than Toppik, and it's shinier, I am thinking of ordering again and will just have to put aside an hour (hopefully not longer) to unclump!
GOODBYE TOPPIK, HELLO MEGA-THIK!

I DIDN'T BELIEVE THE GOOD REVIEWS ON MEGA-THIK UNTIL I TRIED IT MYSELF AND I'LL BE A REPEAT CUSTOMER BECAUSE IT'S BETTER THAN TOPPIK. IT GOES ON BETTER AND STAYS ON LONGER THAN TOPPIK. IT IS CERTAINLY A NOTICABLE IMPROVEMENT ABOVE TOPPIK AND LOOKS MORE REALISTIC. I CAN WEAR MEGA-THIK FOR 3 OR 4 DAYS IF NEED BE UNTIL I HAVE TO WASH MY HAIR AGAIN BECAUSE HUMIDITY AND TEMPERATURE AND ACTIVITY DO NOT DEPLEAT IT THE WAY TOPPIK WEARS OFF OR OUT. TOPPIK IS DIFFICULT TO USE IN THE SUMMER MONTHS, MEGA-THIK IS BETTER. IT HAS A BETTER LOOK AND BETTER FEEL TO IT THAN TOPPIK.

I've used Couvre and Dermatch which are both good products but rub off is a concern with them even when using hairspray. With MegaThik you don't have to worry about rub off or staining because MegaThik is not a makeup but microfibers that cannot stain. Also, the amount of thickness and coverage this product adds is amazing. If you have diffuse thinning then this is about as close to a cure as you can get.
Worst compare to other...Organin, Supermillion and Topix

I have used this product and have used toppik for a few years. I must say that toppik is better. The fibers from Megathik are bigger and don't seem to stay in place as well. A few times I would wake up the next morning and my girlfriend would notice the fibers on the pillow. This never happened with toppik. Maybe if you use a good amount of hairspray they will stick better. I think I will continue to use toppik.
