A picture of the look and style you are interested in will help expedite the process.
Your wig should be snug to fit but not so tight that it leaves marks or is uncomfortable to wear all day long.
They are lightweight and breathable.
The price will vary depending on the hair length and how it is made or put together. Synthetic hair wigs can range from $200- $1,000. Human hair wigs can range from $1000- $5000.
Wash your wig regularly. Do not let your wig come in contact with direct heat (180 or hotter). Do not cook while wearing your wig; use hot curling irons or a blow dryer. Do not overbrush your wig. Most wigs come with a specific style and do not require a lot of brushing.
Some insurance companies do reimburse for hair/cranial prostheses. You will need a medical prescription from your doctor, and we will write the sale receipt the same way. You should always contact your insurance company to see if any other forms are needed.
Any individual can style a synthetic wig as long as you keep within the original look. The more you vary the style, the more work the style becomes. Human hair wigs need more maintenance and, many times, need professional help.
No, your wig will not melt from the sun. Getting too close to an oven, dishwasher, boiling pot, curling iron, and or hair dryer can and will melt your synthetic wig. Human hair wigs will not melt from extreme heat but can become frizzy and damaged from extreme heat and over-processing. Do not leave your wig in a hot car or trunk for a long period of time.
We carry a large selection of synthetic wigs but can special order human hair wigs upon request. We do carry a variety of human hair toppers that are readily available.
