Wigs For Hair Loss, Birmingham, West Midlands
We are extremely experienced in supplying wigs for hair loss sufferers from our salon in Birmingham, West Midlands.
Female hair loss is caused by many problems such as alopecia totalis, an imbalance in the immune system, stress, male hormone patterns and chemotherapy treatment. 2 in 5 women in the UK experience hereditary hair loss too. All cases of hair loss can be very traumatic to a woman and we at J C Hair understand this.
Hair loss can occur amongst women who wear hair extensions due to the constant plaiting of their hair. This is known as traction alopecia. The hairline can suffer due to the hair being pulled too tight. This damage to the hair follicles may result in permanent damage preventing the hair from growing back.
Unfortunately there are few options other than surgery and drugs. Both cases are extreme, could be very expensive, and the results are not usually very reliable. In the case of drugs you will need to keep taking them or your hair will stop growing again, increasing the risk of side effects.
The advantage of wearing Pure virgin hair lace wigs is that they look so realistic, with real baby hairs at the front no one would ever know that a wig is being worn, and you can tie it back in high ponytail. You could also change your style and your look easily with a second wig.
A Pure virgin hair lace wig will not only give you that full head of hair you’ve dreamed about, but it will allow you to rest your hairline from constant plaiting. Your scalp can also breathe freely allowing your hair to potentially grow back. Full lace wigs are available from our hair salon in Birmingham, West Midlands.
Build back your confidence by having a full head of real hair without anyone knowing your secret. With a natural hairline and a fabulous look you will get your life back to the way it was.
Types of wigs.
Before you make a decision about buying your wig, it’s important to understand the differences between the types of wigs that are available. Wigs can be either made from synthetic material (man made) or real human hair.
Man made (synthetic) wigs
Synthetic wigs are a lot cheaper than real hair wigs. Most synthetic wigs come ready to wear in a wide variety of styles, lengths and colours. You don't have to style them and they won’t get damaged in the rain.
The downside to synthetic wigs is that they are not very good with direct heat on them. It can melt the fibres and may even make the hair ‘frizzy’. This means that you can’t use a hair dryer or curling wand. And you’ll need to wash your wig in cold water. At J C Hair we only offer real hair lace wigs.
Real Hair Lace Wigs
Real Hair lace wigs are more expensive than synthetic ones with prices ranging from about £200 to about £2000 for a custom made top of the range lace wig. Despite the cost many people prefer to have real hair wigs.
Real hair wigs last much longer than synthetic ones between 3 and 4 years. If you are going to have chemotherapy treatment, and you decide to have a real hair wig you need to have a fitting soon after your treatment begins. This is so it will be ready in time for when your hair begins to fall out. Some real hair wigs need to be styled and set by a hairdresser.
Many people find it helps to bring along a relative or good friend to their wig fitting.They can support you through this tough time as well as help you choose a wig that suits you best.
Our real hair lace wigs are so realistic, no one will ever know it's a wig. A complete range of full lace wigs is available from our hair salon in Birmingham, West Midlands. We also supply half lace wigs from our hair salon in Birmingham, which are ideal for women who are experiencing partial hair loss at the front or crown areas. The half lace wig allows women to have a natural front hair line including beautiful baby hairs and which allows them to part the hair anywhere giving a perfectly natural appearance. We specialise in helping cancer chemotherapy, alopecia and trichotillomania patients to look and feel their best.
You don’t have to pay VAT (Value Added Tax) on wigs that are bought for hair loss due to cancer treatment. But you must fill in a VAT form at the time you buy your wig. So be sure to ask the supplier for this form, as you can’t claim it back at a later date.
