breastycbombandme Hair update (day 14, Round 1 chemo)
A huge shoutout to @hairtoware.co.uk for turning a nerve- wracking experience into something truly dreamy. From the very first consultation to today’s final fitting and styling, they made sure I felt comfortable and ‘normal’ every step of the way. They provided all the info I needed about hair loss, scalp care, and helped me pick out the most badass wig in town.
My friends are officially jealous of my new look, and I feel so reassured knowing I’m covered if my hair does fall out. Honestly, this wig is even better than my real hair ever was!
Even if I don’t lose my hair, I’ve cut it short and can’t heat style it during treatment, so this wig is my go-to for any day or night out.
Let’s see if blondes do have more fun so far, I bloody hope so!

Alopeciaandme
aloepciaandme @hairtoware.co.uk changed my wig-wearing life. To be able to find a company that cares, is honest, treats clients with respect, go above, beyond and do what is best for you is a rarity. 15 years of wearing wigs has been difficult. Lots of ugly, sad and awful experiences have often left me anxiety ridden and without my confidence. However @hairtoware.co.uk (especially Amanda and Maisie) will be straightforward and welcome you to a safe space where you can be vulnerable. Their advice, experience and recommendations are the best in the industry. I strongly advise anyone in the area and beyond to take the trip to Ware to see them. I haven’t been asked to post anything, but sometimes you just have to shout out a company you care about.
“They’re specialists”
“After a video call with Amanda at @hair_to_ware I just knew the team could support me in what I needed. They’re specialists and absolutely know their shit.
So after a trip to visit the girls… here’s my new doo!”

“would recommend to anyone loosing their hair”
“Fantastic customer service. Got my wig a few months ago but wanted a fringe cut into it. They were so helpful and understanding. I would recommend to anyone loosing their hair to go here.”

“I walked out of the shop in a new amazing wig, feeling confident”
“Just wanted to thank everyone, especially Ryan for his guidance and advice with fitting my new wig today. I was so worried about my hair coming out during my Chemotherapy but the two visits I have made into Hair to Ware have been filled with compassion, empathy and encouragement that this is just a period of time that will result in my hair growing back.
Ryan’s sense of humour and talent meant I walked out of the shop in a new amazing wig, feeling confident. Beautiful results”
Jennifer Laura, 2019
“Yep, I like it!”
“Experienced, listening, and helpful. Totally satisfied and confident if I have any worries they will sort them out with me. First time ever wearer of a full hair piece.
I posted pictures (something I usually hate doing) and the response was incredible. So complementary – made me feel totally great about it and even I looked at it and thought, “yep I like it”, so thank you again and a big thank-you to Maisey for all her help, patience and knowledge.”

A positive experience

Thank you, ladies for my lovely wig…… the whole experience has been a positive one at a bit of a rubbish time for me….. so moving forward with my chemo/hair loss journey, I feel ready! Thanks again – N
Maisie created this stunning wig With the Follea Rene. The client was thrilled and we all agreed that she looked fantastic!
“really put me at ease”
“Kelly is a real artist and I felt thoroughly spoilt today. The customer care at Hair to Ware has been amazing throughout. Buying a new wig is exciting but it’s also daunting and Amanda and her team really put me at ease and looked after me throughout the entire process. Will definitely be a returning customer. X”

“confidence back”
“No, my hair didn’t suddenly grow this long overnight, but I am so grateful to @hair_to_ware for making me feel more like my old self, putting a smile on my face and giving me a little bit of confidence back.
During treatment, losing my hair surprisingly didn’t

“put me at ease”
“So in August 2020 I went to visit Amanda and was a bit dubious as I didn’t know what to expect. Naturally I have big head of ginger curly hair and was dreading losing it. Even though I’m a theatre nurse and very pragmatic. But she was so lovely and took everything nice and slowly with me. Had a nice chat and a cuppa. So we went through all the possible styles and colours and picked a beautiful mixed reds one. My hair then grew back through the summer months which was brilliant as my head didn’t get very hot. But sadly I had to change treatment plans which meant my hair fell out again. So I decided to go for a blonde style this time and I’ve really enjoyed being able to play around with it. Again Amanda was fab and put me at ease and we made a great decision!! Thank you. ????”

“outstanding shop and staff”
★★★★★
“This outstanding shop and staff have a well deserved 5 stars from me! From the moment I walked through the door, I was made to feel welcome and very comfortable. Amanda, step by step, took me through my inevitable hair loss due to Chemotherapy and gave me full support and advice on choosing the right wig for me. Surprisingly, she picked out a wig she thought would suit me best which secretly was the wig I had in mind, showing she has great experience in matching hair to it’s client .
Credit must also go to Maisey who put through a root smudge, high lights, low lights, cut and styled my wig to perfection.

“Thank you so much! My daughter came and had a Little Princess Trust wig fitted today. She is so self conscious about wearing a wig but she was instantly at ease and very comfortable. Maisie made her feel ‘normal’ when she has such anxiety with the fact she has lost all of her hair. High recommended this amazing salon.
Thank you xxx”

“Amanda and her team were extraordinary. The kindness and understanding shown was an enormous help, which was just what I needed during a stressful time.
To be given a nice coffee, made comfortable and relaxed and talked through everything I could need to know was a fabulous service. The quality of the wig is exceptional.
I would thoroughly recommend this salon to anyone who is suffering hair loss and desires a sympathetic yet highly professional service.”

Maisie did a wonderful job on styling & colouring my new topper making me feel confident and happy.

“I went today for the top up to my eye brows. Sukie is an artist with the tattoo machine. From very sparse uneaven brows which had previously been done by an incompetent lady. To fantastic brows. Sukie managed to reshape and hide the past disastrous mess like magic . Hair to ware , has an amazing team , led by Amanda. I felt relaxed and happy there maybe too happy. I am now considering my next visit and which treatment to have . I strongly recommend a consultation to highlight your better assets .thank you for putting a smile on my face”

“outstanding shop and staff”
“I have been coming to Hair to Ware for the last five years, since I was diagnosed with a condition that was causing severe, painful inflammation of my scalp and which resulted in large amounts of my hair falling out.
By the time I had my first appointment at Hair to Ware, I had tried every possible treatment imaginable at great expense and without success. Hair to Ware was the first Hair Clinic that that gave me hope.
I was literally at my wits’ end and I had become severely anxious and depressed as my hair had always been an important part of my identity. The more anxious I became, the condition worsened….”

“Today I had a consultation with Maisie and being that I’m a guy, i thought i would feel a little awkward stepping into what you would think is a ladies hair salon. However that was not the case, I had a very warm welcome and sitting there talking with Amanda (the owner) and Maisie I felt like I was just visiting old friends.
They was extremely helpful and professional and what they offer is simply amazing and very affordable! I can’t wait to return and have them help me get my hair sorted. I’ve been debating what to do about my hair loss for nearly 5 years now and I’ve finally found the one place that I know I can truly rely on and trust.
Thank you so much. Look forward to seeing you again soon.”
