It’s been a struggle, but somehow, you’re managing. You’ve recently received the diagnosis you thought could never happen to you, and now your only focus is getting through each day. You know you have a long road ahead. There’s so much going on right now that other things just aren’t as important. Like, for example, the hair loss side effects of your illness. Not really a big deal—after all, it’s just hair, right?
Wrong. It’s easy for others who’ve not walked in your shoes to tell you not to worry. They’re not ill. They don’t have to look in the mirror and see someone else staring back at them. With all that happens to our bodies when we’re battling a disorder, the last thing we want to do is not recognize ourselves.
Maybe it’s time to start thinking about hair replacement.
The first thing to know is that you are not alone. It’s estimated that over 30 million in the US are experiencing some form of hair loss. Some will see their hair return, others will not. But what they all have in common is that they want to look as normal as possible during this difficult time.
Hair replacement, also referred to as Custom Cranial Prosthesis, is the art of creating a fully customized full or partial artificial hair piece that mirrors as close as possible a woman’s natural hair. Designed to fit the specific requirements of the client, it’s one way of reclaiming her crowning glory. Some design samples/basics are below—these can be mixed, matched, upgraded, and specifically tailored to meet your needs. Contact us for a consultation.
