Heart of Gold is designed
to meet the needs of women experiencing medical hair loss, easing you
through this transitional time with a world of beautiful, comfortable
headwear options.
If you feel slightly apprehensive at the thought of wearing
a wig, rest assured that today's wigs are different than what you would
have purchased years ago.
Gone are the burdensome, heavy helmets of the past - they've
been replaced by comfortable, lightweight styles that are easy to wear
and care for.
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.
