There
are plenty of comfortable, beautiful options available to you to help
you cope with hair loss. The earlier you begin considering your options,
the easier the transition will be.
Won’t a wig be hot? Itchy? Uncomfortable?
No – you’ll be surprised at how comfortable a wig is to wear. To ensure
the most lightweight, comfortable feel, look for wigs that feature
WhisperLite® fiber and an open cap for greater air circulation and
a cooler feel. Other features like velvet bands and open cap construction
provide much-needed comfort for sensitive scalps.
How can I be sure my wig won’t shift or fall off?
Your wig should fit you both comfortably and securely. Choosing a wig
in your correct size makes a big difference. Also look for wigs that
feature SOFTouch® non-slip lining that gently adheres to your head.
When your wig fits correctly, it should not move at all.
Could a wig cause damage to my scalp, or slow my own natural hair
growth?
No, absolutely not. Wearing a wig will not harm your scalp or inhibit
regrowth. In fact, a wig will make you feel better and more confident
about your appearance, while helping maintain body heat and prevent
overexposure of your sensitive skin during this time. Many women choose
to wear their wig until their own hair has grown in enough to style
and shape.
Do I need more than one wig?
Some women find it convenient to have two wigs. That way, they can
wash one while they wear the other, giving them the flexibility and
reliability of always having one ready to wear at a moment’s notice.
You might like being able to alternate wigs to maintain their freshness
and beauty. But that’s an individual decision, and depends on how
often you wear your wig.
What is a sleep cap and why should I have one?
A sleep, or slumber, cap is a soft cotton cap that you wear every night.
Once hair loss begins, some women wear one to keep hair fall under
control. Once you shave your head (which also helps manage hair fall)
or lose your hair, a sleep cap is recommended to maintain body heat
and keep your head protected.
How much will a wig cost?
Several factors influence the cost of your wig: the type of wig (synthetic
or human hair) and wig construction, consultation and fitting, the
amount of cutting and styling required, and whether wig care accessories
are included.
